Kamp Keowee is a private, volunteer run, summer camp offered to children and grandchildren of Lake Area Cliffs property owners.  Parents and/or grandparents registering Kamp Keowee participants must be both a POA dues-paying property owner in one of the 3 lake communities—Vineyards, Falls or Springs—and a current Cliffs Club member.  Kamp Keowee's purpose is to offer an educational and fun-filled social/learning experience, while building strong relationships and memories between kampers, parents, and grandparents.

Kamp Keowee 2026 will conduct two separate Kamps:

  1. Happy Birthday USA — ages 5-10
  2. Adventure Kamp —ages 10-13 (10-year-old kampers can choose to attend either Kamp).

Registration fees are $210.00 for Happy Birthday USA and $525.00 for Adventure Kamp.  Registration fees include the following:

  • Happy Birthday USA - All activities, T-shirt, craft supplies, snacks, and lunches.
  • Adventure Kamp - All activities, T-shirt, 2 overnight stays at Wildwater Adventure Park with meals provided and all transportation.

Important Notes:

  • Adventure Kamp will have a quick orientation at the Vineyards Lakehouse on Sunday, June 21, 2026, from 4:00 - 5:00 PM to go over important details, logistics and transportation for the week.
  • In order to participate in either Kamp, registration fees and ALL waiver and release forms listed on the Registration Website must be downloaded, signed, and mailed to the appropriate Kamp Director listed below.
