Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Let's See Those Deer Camps!

Found it.

Nuthin' fancy for me.

Some outstanding deer camps in this thread, great work gentlemen and ladies!

Cheers ~

Great photos of some "old school" type of deer camps! Here is one that I (and many others) used to be a member of. This is out in the National Forest here in Virginia on private property, butting right up to the GWNF. Log cabin, built in (I think) 1939, no running water, no heat (except a fireplace), but at least it has electricity (very limited -- only a few power outlets with the old style screw-in Buss fuses).

Still don't understand what happened, back around 2008/2009. Who said what, who did what, who pissed off who, family feud type of thing... Oh well, that was the end of it. Someone changed all the locks and booted us all out!

I’m glad this got brought back around. Love seeing these camps.

It’s getting to be that time of year.

One of my favorite threads, some great hunting camps. Great times getting together and spending time with friends and family at these.

Catskills Deer Camp

Nothing fancy, But its warm and dry and its in the woods. Its deer camp. A nice campfire, family, friends, and good food. Wish I was there right now.

Posted elsewhere but again won't hurt.

Shower set up.

Collect rain off the shed. Shower built in back section of shed.



Into instant hot water deal.



Into the walled off portion in the back. Add a Menards shower set up, hooks and bench - nice way to was off the stink and it does make really hot water. Generator runs the pump so may as well have lights and exhaust fan too.

Our camp is three miles of backpacking in the high country. We take Folgers showers, five eight penny nails holes in the bottom of a coffee can hanging from a tree.

We are a little more upscale than you . We cut a hole in the loft floor , stuck a 5 gal bucket with a 1/4 " hole with a home made shower . It is amazing how nice a 1 gallon shower is .

Glad you posted up pictures of your hunting camp, again.

In one hunting camp we have a rustic shower setup in a shed. Wash tub with hose hooked to it and a hole in floor to drain. Shower curtains and solar water bags. If the sun is not used we heat water on the wood stove.

I’m doing the tent camp in the High Peaks region of the Adirondacks again this year. Going in the second week of November for 2 weeks hopefully. I can’t wait!!

I remember your thread from a year ago.

Did you punch your tag last year,?

Best of luck this season.

I did, I got a decent 10 point on our property in the flatlands. The mountains didn’t give up anything. I’ve got some new plans this year, hunting higher elevations and more remote. I have lost 20 pounds of fat in the past year, and I’m going to be hitting it hard.

Christmas at camp a few years ago.

I hear you on the weight loss. Good job! I've lost 42lbs of Covid weight since May, and can't weight to chase Oregon blacktails. I have a flight in 2 weeks.

Good luck this season.

Teal that’s a great shower set up.
