Wow. Camp Augusta was way more than I expected. Almost to a fault. Let me explain: we came here…read morefor a family weekend camp and really didn't look to hard at what it was. I've been to camp. I've been to Tahoe national forest. I know what it was going to be and hoo boy was I wrong... in thre best possible way. So apparently most of the people there are seasonal regulars and it showed. I'll explain at the bottom. First if all the drive from the south bay. It was not the three hours my wife said, on a Friday afternoon it was almost six. Now that that is out of the way, the rest is all good. First came activity sign up, hope you don't suffer from anxiety or fear of missing out because there are SOOOOOOO many activities. Kid stuff, toddler stuff, adult stuff, stuff I didn't think camps could do. And you should read the emails with the descriptions or man up and ask, because some things are self explanatory (pottery, acrylics, archery, zip line) and some sound fun but in reality shouldn't be done by an overweight 50 year old who has no training, but you can still sign up. And then SOMEHOW they get you to do it and you have a great time! Next are accommodations. Sparse, but cool. Open air cabins in villages, secluded bungalows, pole tents, platform tents, and more (bring bug spray, they're all kinda just open). Different villages, running water means not only flushing toilets (really that should be the title and get 5 stars for that alone) but also HOT showers. While camping. Hot showers and camping, whoddathunkit? Next meals. Meals at camp. Cool. Nope: incredible. Apparently it is a rotating menu but for a weekend or week it means without being a host you have a new option at every meal. Vegans, gluten free, dairy free, whatever, they got you covered. You eat everything, they got you too. Ls favourite was pancakes with berries and whipped cream. And they don't go light. I really dig the teriyaki chicken. The activities were all great, but again there were just too many. You really feel like it is overboard until you get to know everyone else there. It is a place that kids and parents look forward to year after year. The wide selection means that this will be your go to for camping for years to come and for good reason. There were kids that have been going since they were toddlers and now in the mid teens that can still go and have a good time. I had lunch (but no clinics unfortunately) with a young lady who was on year 9. That seemed unlikely bit that wasd including the time she was a camper. How cool is that? L was suffering from preteen cool and didn't want to go to camp, but after the first datu he was pestering me to get him in a couple sessions this summer. They are all full but there is a waitlist, so we're all in on getting him up there somehow. Tl;dr: awesome camp, read my review, it isn't that long

I did things that I never thought I'd ever get to do, waterskiing for one. I learned to ride a horsey and camp out at some amazing locations with scenery that would reset your soul for enlightenment.

I am an alumni of Camp Okihi, or as it was originally named Camp Harry B. Ogle. As it is stated, it…read moreis owned by 4 Boy Scout troops from the Golden Empire Council in Sacramento and has been in generally continuous operation since the late 1940's. I was an alumni from Troop 13 and attended from approximately 1957 up until about 1962. The camp back then and it is essentially the same today is constructed to handle about 60-80 scouts and adults. The original came consisted of about 6 MASH style military tents and out buildings including a shower building. It is very close to some extremely beautiful scenery in the northern Sierra, in the Lakes Basin area near the Sierra Buttes, the Sardine Lakes, Sand Pond, and Packer Lake. Paker and Sardine both have nice resorts. I went back for sentimental reasons in about 2004 and spoke to the camp administrator. He told me that the came is still owned by the four troops, but that it is available for specialized camps too, i.e., science camps, computer camps, etc. This may have changed, so inquire at the above address or the headquarters of the Golden Empire Council in Sacramento. It is a wonderful place. At one time, there were other camps close by from the Yolo YMCA, The Diablo Girl Scouts (which ironically was attended by my wife), and the San Francisco Campire Girls. It is my understanding that these are all or mostly abandoned. Too bad. Great place with tons of very good memories.

I attended camp every winter and summer from January 1998 - July 2002, earned many skills and merit…read morebadges there, learned and practiced the 12 strong tenets of the Boy Scout Law with the guidance of the dedicated adult staff, and became part of the junior staff as a guide to the younger boys. I credit much of the quality training in my scout years to the quality time spent at camp. As stated on the campokihi.org website, the camp is volunteer-run, which makes it a place of and by, and for people who go there not just out of tradition, but out of love. Most adult volunteers are Scout parents, several whose Scouts had already attained their Eagle awards and moved on in their own adult lives. Still some of the most dedicated and perennial staff had no children in Scouts, but loved the camp and loved the troops enough to devote their time every year maintain the camp and teach the boys who attended. They also get the boys involved in caring for their camp: during the program the scouts clean their own cabins and rotate camp-wide chores every day of the week. Some boys become dedicated assistant staff to facilitate the camping experience of other scouts, and the truly devoted come up outside of the camp season to participate in work weekends to prepare the camp for upcoming sessions. No wonder then that the camp received the top marks in its accreditation reviews every year, often outranking the top performing and several times larger paid-staff council camps in terms of quality of program, quality of management, safety, and cleanliness. Add to that the beauty of the Sierras, the abundance of natural hiking trails, lakes (some bring up their boats to teach the sailing merit badge) and geological features (some leaders have taken boys on rappelling trips), nearby towns with historical attractions such as mines and train museums, even golf courses (yes, you can earn your badge for that here, too), you'll be too busy enjoying all of the activities of your camp to wonder what's going on at the other camps (yes, there were some in the area--at least during the years I visited).

Stay Safe due to the Davis Fire…read more.. Quality/Quantity - Nice small visitor center. Educational, small gift shop, and has clean restrooms. Plenty of volunteers/team members. So many different trails. A very easy paved 0.4 mile loop hike, gravel path hikes, and of course, rough dirt hikes. Potential flooding, especially after a huge winter. Stay on the trails, as many paths have natural erosion. Stay safe. There used to be a fish hatchery here, see website. Not sure if it closed...? Also lots of wildlife; again, stay safe - Coyotes, bobcats, mule deer, black beers (we get this at the house also, LOL), mountain lions, rodents (too many to name), bats, birds, reptiles, etc. Atmosphere - Visitor center may be small, but they are packed full of information. Also cool decor, see pictures. There are also campsites, BBQ, picnic areas, volleyball courts, horse shoe, clean bathrooms, and plenty of parking (cars, RVs, buses, etc). There is even a stage in Eagle Meadows for events. Open 7 days a week from 7am to 7pm (hours are also seasonal, see website). Clean bathrooms throughout the different parking lots and camp sites. Horse trails and minimum bike trails, see picture. Visitor center; it was actually open today. Thank you volunteers. Last time we were here was during the winter; what a difference with the seasons. Service - Self-service today. Price - Free today. Owner Comment - Thank you Washoe County for another great park!
