Travel To Camp

As soon as your child is enrolled in camp, we encourage you to begin planning transportation to and from camp. Please see below for more information on traveling to camp.

Camp Pinnacle’s address is 1 Wolfe Lake Drive, Hendersonville, NC 28739.

Driving to Camp

On opening day, we will have staggered, hour-long arrival windows for families beginning at 8:30 a.m., 9:30 a.m., and 10:30 a.m. You will be able to choose your time slot on the transportation form. On closing day, camp will open at 9 a.m.

Flying to camp

We are happy to pick up and take campers to the Asheville (AVL) or Greenville, SC (GSP) airports on opening and closing day. Please see “tips and tricks for booking your child’s flight” in CampInTouch for more booking windows and other important information before purchasing a ticket.

Our experience have taught us that it is easier for parents to go ahead and pay the unaccompanied minor fee and send us the receipt.  This allows for a quicker check-in process for our campers and trip leaders.  Please email receipts to the office so the airlines do not double charge you.  All campers flying as unaccompanied minors will need a credit card on their account for us to charge needed fees for checked baggage.  Please call us at 855-378-1928 with any questions.

*We are not able to transport campers to the Charlotte airport.

Shipping trunks

If your family is flying to NC prior to camp, it may be in your best interest to ship their trunk to camp separately; it will then be placed in your camper’s cabin prior to opening day. We recommend using UPS, FedEx, or ShipCamps to ensure it arrives on time. We are happy to ship your camper’s trunk back to you at the end of the session; please contact us if so.

Important things to note:

  • If you choose to use UPS to ship the trunk home after camp, here is an easy-to-use form.
  • Please have your camper’s trunk arrive the Friday before camp starts.
  • Please pack your camper’s carry-on with a bathing suit, change of clothes, closed-toe shoes, and basic toiletries like a toothbrush in case the trunk arrives late.
