Steampunk Camping and General Hangout
This is the place where many of us like to camp together, and where we hold the BBQ and Gear Swap.
The owners of the Pine Near RV Camp are super nice and will be happy to help you get a spot. We always put a hold on the Miner Cabins and the RV spots below, though of course people also stay in other parts of the camp and in town. This lets us carve out a large area for the Gear Swap and the Potluck.
For 2022:
We HIGHLY recommend booking your spots right away – not that there won’t be something available at the last minute, but just to make sure you can get the exact spot you want. Let us know if you reserve a spot, and we will mark it as ‘reserved’. Currently, one cabin and RV space #8 are still available through our group. If you are interested in reserving one, speak up! Text Diana at: (425) 318-2651 to arrange it.
Space 29 will be reserved as an open area where people can bring their chairs and just hang out together. It’s also the location of the Gear Swap and the Potluck BBQ.
You can also reserve online for spots not currently on group hold.

AMENITIES
The campground has teepees, cabins, tent spots, and plug-in RV spots. There are coin operated showers and laundry facilities, and very nice bathrooms. Firewood, ice, and laundry soap is for sale, but bringing your own is always a practical choice.
If you get a spot at the Campground, let us know where you are (if you are comfortable with that) so we can all find each other.
Note: There are many wonderful places to stay in Winthrop besides the campground; we just liked the concept of hanging out together as a group as much as possible. Who knows… perhaps someday we’ll take over the whole place.
While we don’t require any level of ‘authenticity’ to join our camp, who doesn’t like the idea of Steampunk Camping? I found a few fun links that are full of droolworthy ideas. The picture below is from the Steamtent Co-operative, taken by Gary Waidson.
