Camp Four Echoes is our beautiful 212-acre Windy Bay property occupying two miles of shoreline on Lake Coeur d’Alene. For the past 85 years, thousands of girls have come here to learn new skills, make new friends, and create lifelong memories. Our summer camp programs include sailing, windsurfing, swimming, canoeing, arts & crafts, hiking, dramatics, archery, outdoor skills, STEM, leadership courses, and now an aerial adventure park with a zipline.
Six various camping units house 18-24 girls weekly. Each unit has flush toilets and running water, but no electricity. Meals are held in the 11,500 square foot lodge, which was built in 2011.
Meet our Camp Four Echoes seasonal Camp Director, Katey Butler, also known as River. She has been with our Council for over a year, serving as a Program Specialist for the Idaho region. A lifelong Girl Scout from Oklahoma, Katey grew up attending Girl Scout camp in the plains of Cowboy Country. Katey is excited to bring her Midwest camping experience to the Pacific Northwest and to create lasting memories along the shores of Lake Coeur d’Alene.
