Beautiful camp grounds. The absolute best thing about the camp grounds is that there is NO INTERNET NO CELLULAR SERVICE
Love this park. Great camping!
Palm Beach County's best County Park but you definitely need to have reservations
Camp Wilkerson is a truly wonderful and magical place. The natural beauty—including its meadows, trails, streams, and trees—feels sacred. My husband and I had our wedding there recently and were lucky enough to be able to reserve the whole campground from Friday afternoon to Sunday morning. The wedding buildings, including the lodge and schoolhouse, were perfect for what we needed—clean, rustic, open-air, and just stunning. There’s a beautiful stone fire place in the lodge building for chilly evenings, and a great industrial size kitchen. The bathrooms are clean and kept heated with plenty of hot water in the showers. The 3 cabins were absolutely perfect for our moms and their friends to stay in, with heating and comfortable beds. The rest of our group fanned out across the many tent sites, Adirondack shelters, and RV spots. This is a magical place and little had to be done to create a beautiful weekend against the gorgeous natural backdrop. We were able to have bonfires with friends, decorate the lodge how we wanted, cook food, store ice, fit more than enough guests with the existing picnic tables for meals, and use beautiful wood pews for our service. This is the perfect venue for a fun and relaxing campground wedding near Portland. Most of all, the camp hosts, Connie and Jim, are the sweetest people ever. It was such a joy to work with them. If you commit to try to be clean, kind, and courteous, I have no doubt they will go above and beyond for you like they did for us. There’s no doubt we’ll be coming back again with family and friends for years to come. Camp Wilkerson is forever in our hearts!
