RE: hunting camps??
Somewhat off topic... but FYI
While not in the woods at my "deer camp" I've been reading a book called Legendary Deer Camps by Rob Wegner. Haven't finished it yet, but so far it's pretty good. Basically it tells the stories from famous deer camps of persons such as Teddy Roosevelt, Aldo Leupold, and others.
And one other great book that I read last year during deer season is Ten Point: Deer Camp in the Mississippi Delta. The author of this one retells the stories of him growing up & spending time in his family's camp in the Delta bottoms. Lots of photos in this one. A great read!

RE: hunting camps??
Hunting camp is a little one room shack built from the limber of a fallen down barn. Until I the only lady of the bunch started hunting it was a real mess. We now have a propane heating stove and a outhouse. We go here to get away from civilization even when we aren't hunting. My 8 and 11 year old beg to go all the time. They do have fun without TV, computer, or video games. We go and turn them loose on the 300 acres. We love living the simple life for a while.

RE: hunting camps??
I've been through the whole spectrum with hunting camps:
-alone and in groups
-in tents, trailers, cabins, and the back of my truck (just an aluminum cap)
-nearly EVERYONE of my hunting partners was a loud snorer![:@]
-and the best I ever had was a friend's vacation home on the lake--a 4500 sq foot timberframe luxury house on the lake with fireplaces, a jacuzzi and an indoor pool. Boy, did we rough it!
