Camp Caverns
A camp like no other on Earth—or below it—for boys & girls ages 9-14
Explore Deeply
Camp Caverns is a residential summer camp in Southeast, Tennessee, dedicated to exploration and growth. Our mission at Camp Caverns is to provide girls and boys, ages 9-14, with an epic experience that will be the highlight of their summer and a memory to treasure for life. Camp Caverns is a nurturing place where boys and girls can be themselves while building character and confidence. Camp life is centered at The Caverns in Payne's Cove at the base of the Cumberland Plateau. Accommodations include boys and girls yurts, a fire pit, activity grounds, and, of course, The Caverns caves. Off-site expeditions ensure every day is filled with exploration and discovery.

Camp Caverns Mission
Camp Caverns provides girls and boys, ages 9-14, with an epic experience that will be the highlight of their summer and one they will treasure for the rest of their lives.

Discover Camp Caverns
Your child will explore the great outdoors, from highlands of Monteagle Mountain to the rich Pelham Valley and 650 acres home to The Caverns. They will discover secret underground passages, soar through the trees on a zipline, hike through a majestic forest, and paddleboard on scenic local lake. Your child will practice courage and teamwork, participate in art and sports, and learn the value of perseverance and resilience. Most of all, they will form timeless friendships that they will carry with them forever.
Camp sessions start at $1,385, including a $225 non-refundable registration fee. Sibling and two-session discounts are available.
