What dates are available?
We are available for rentals from September through May each year. Within that timeframe, our rental availability is constantly changing so please use the Initial Information Form to inquire about your first-choice dates and our staff will be in touch with you soon to confirm our availability.
What do you offer as part of a rental?
We separate our rentals into two main categories, Outdoor Education and Retreats.
- For Outdoor Education, schools select from a wide variety of outdoor curricula and activities as a part of an experiential education overnight trip. Camp Sealth staff host the activities and meals while schools provide adult supervision during the days, evenings, and overnight. Our Outdoor Education program generally runs 2-night experiences on Wednesdays through Fridays in the spring and fall but please contact the Outdoor Education and Retreats Director if we have availability to accommodate an alternative schedule.
- For Retreats, we can offer any combination of lodging, meals, and programming as a part of a rental with us. These are all available as a la carte options or can be combined in our package pricing for a discount. You can also rent a space to make your own meals at our Wrangler Retreat Center.
Please refer to our Rates and Information Sheet under the How to Book section for a full description of rental options.
How many people can you accommodate?
We can accommodate up to 200 people in heated cabins in our main camp area. Our Wrangler Retreat Center can accommodate up to 60 people. For more information about our exact cabin capacity, view our Rates and Information Sheet under the How to Book section for specific cabin information.
How are the beds/cabins arranged?
While all of our cabins are a little different, for the most part, our cabins our set up with 2 large rooms with 8-10 twin-sized beds (some as bunk beds and some as not) and 1 small room with 2-3 twin-sized beds. Most cabins have sinks, toilets, and showers in a separate but nearby building, while our Wrangler Retreat Center includes bathrooms within the cabin. For more information about our cabin layouts, please refer to our Rates and Information Sheet under the How to Book section.
What should I bring to Camp Sealth?
The most important thing to know is that Camp Sealth does not provide any bedding for any rental guests so all guests must bring a sleeping bag, sheets, pillow, and any other bedding items they might want themselves. Otherwise, other important things to bring are weather-appropriate clothes to layer, rain gear, a water bottle, and a flashlight.
How accessible is Camp Sealth?
While we maintain inclusivity as one of the pillars of our organizational mission, we acknowledge that we are continuing to grow in this area as well. Camp Sealth is located in a large valley with many of the buildings and program areas spread out from one another which require 2-15 minute walks to travel between them. These trails and walkways involve uneven dirt, gravel, and muddy surfaces and many of them are uphill. Some of our buildings are wheelchair accessible but not all of them. We are happy to provide accommodations where we are able so please reach out to us with any questions.
Can you accommodate dietary needs like vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and food allergies?
Yes! Information about guests’ dietary needs is collected through the Camp Sealth waiver before you arrive so that we can offer nutritional and filling alternative options at each meal for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, and vegan diets, as well as for most major food allergies. Please keep in mind that special diet alternatives may differ from the main menu and we do not provide an exact substitution for every single menu item. Due to supplier and kitchen infrastructure limitations, we cannot accommodate some diets such as: strict Kosher or halal diets, all-organic or non-GMO, keto, paleo, and highly restrictive diets with multiple allergies. Additionally, while we make every effort to avoid cross-contamination, we cannot guarantee that the kitchen and dining hall service is allergen-free.
Camp Sealth is 100% peanut-free. We do not serve any peanut products in camp and check all food served to ensure it was made in a peanut-free facility. However, we cannot guarantee there is no possible nut cross-contamination as some food provided is processed in facilities that also process nuts.
If you have any concerns about your dietary needs, please reach out to our Food Service Director, Roy Roos at [/email] royr@campfireseattle.org[/email] at least two weeks prior to your arrival to discuss specific details about what we can accommodate. Everyone is welcome to bring and store their own food at Camp Sealth if needed to accommodate their diet.
What programming do you offer?
We offer a variety of environmental science curricula, team building activities, and traditional camp activities as a part of our programming. You can view all of our programming options on our Curricula & Activities page for more information!
