Honestly unless you have the money to burn dropping a million on a camp is money you will never get back in your life time. (If you start from scratch.)

Many new camps today start as day camps and build up to something. Just dropping a million and hopping kids will show up is tough.

My suggestion buy a camp that is already up and running. Or start small and build up because it would be hard to run a camp and pay off a million dollars.

Unless...

Most camps today make most of their money from non camp activities. Weddings, conferences, school field trips, ect...

So do you work and think out side the box.
