You never actuallyoutgrew camp.

Back to Bunks is an adults only summer camp retreat outside of Austin, TX. We take over actual summer camps in their off-seasons, and reimagine them as a fun getaway for adults.

Camp takes place about an hour outside of Austin, TX at 775 Camp Rd, Marble Falls, TX 78654

Yes! Most people will come alone. Back to Bunks was developed with the goal of bringing people together in a fun, nostalgic way. Remember how easy it used to be to make friends as a kid? That is what we are recreating at Back to Bunks. So come alone or with the group chat - you’ll leave new friends by the time we pack up to go.

The following are all included in your ticket price:

• Your own bunk in a real camp cabin, 2 nights
• 5 meals in the dining hall (Friday dinner; Saturday breakfast, lunch and dinner; Sunday breakfast)
• A full weekend of camp activities: swimming in Lake LBJ, climbing wall, high ropes courses, kayaking and canoeing, pool access, hiking, frisbee golf, sand volleyball, pickup games, DJ party, and more
• Campfires both nights with s'mores
• Beer and seltzers: 3 drink tickets per night
• Back to Bunks welcome bag with camp t-shirt and other swag

As an Adult Retreat, the schedule is loose depending on what you do and do not want to participate in, but here is our expected timeline:

Schedule is subject to change

Friday: Arrivals

Saturday: Full Camp Day

Sunday: Goodbyes

Your ticket covers a full weekend of camp, with no add-ons or activity fees.

Saturday is the big camp day. You'll spend it with your activity group, rotating through the camp classics:

Staffed activities

• Climbing wall and Zipline: climb the wall, then fly down dual 625-foot zip lines
• High ropes courses: the Spaceship
• The Screamer: a free-fall giant swing (if you dare)
• Archery and axe throwing
• Kayaking on Lake LBJ
• Swim Bay: rope swing and a giant waterslide straight into the lake
• The pool: two water slides, a lazy-day tanning ledge and a spin-cycle current pool
• Guided nature hikes
• Ninja course

Open activities, free to do anytime

• Sand volleyball
• Pickleball
• Kickball
• Disc golf
• Basketball
• Ga Ga ball

Back to Bunks traditions

• Color war and Camp Olympics
• Campfires with s'mores
• Camp awards and superlatives
• A Saturday night dance party with a DJ set

You won't be able to do everything (it's camp, not a checklist). Activities run in rotations, so you'll hit the highlights with your group and pick your favorites during free time. Some activities depend on weather and are only open when camp staff are on duty. All the gear is provided for staffed activities.

Classic camp food, served buffet-style in the mess hall, just like you remember (only better). Your ticket includes five meals: dinner on Friday, breakfast, lunch and dinner on Saturday, plus breakfast on Sunday. Think breakfast tacos, pancakes and waffles in the morning, and camp favorites like burgers, tacos, pasta and chicken tenders later in the day, each with sides. Coffee is served with breakfast. We'll also keep snacks and drinks around between activities.

Do you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Yes! The camp kitchen offers vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. Just let us know on your registration form (or at least two weeks before camp), and we'll pass it along to the chef.

Have a food allergy or another dietary need? Reach out to us at admin@backtobunks.com and we'll check with the kitchen. The kitchen isn't allergen-free, so if your allergy is severe, feel free to bring your own backup snacks and any medication you need.

You must be 21 years or older to attend Back to Bunks retreats. Ages will be verified at check-in and refunds will not be offered for anyone booked below the required age. There are no age maximums. We expect attendees of all age demographics!

You'll sleep in a real camp cabin, bunk beds and all. Cabins are divided by gender and grouped by age, so you'll be bunking with people in a similar stage of life. Your cabin is also your crew for the weekend. It's the fastest way to make new friends. Each cabin holds between 10-14 people.

You will get your cabin assignment when you arrive at camp, and you'll get to pick your bunk when you arrive Friday.

If you have a question about cabin placement or need an accommodation, email us at admin@backtobunks.com and we'll find the right fit for you.

Upon booking, you can request to share a cabin with another campmate. As long as they also request you, we will do our best to accommodate shared cabins. Please note that cabins are divided by gender and age group, so this will be taken into consideration when making sleeping arrangements.

If you have a question about cabin placement or need an accommodation, email us at admin@backtobunks.com and we'll find the right fit for you.

Bedding will not be provided. Bring a sleeping bag or twin sheets and a blanket, a pillow and a towel. Earplugs and an eye mask are never a bad idea in a cabin full of new friends.

We are going back to camp which means that there is no central A/C in the bunk beds. All cabins have windows and fans to create a breeze. Campers are encouraged to bring portable (not plug in) personal fans.

Just like real camp: bathrooms aren't inside the cabins. You'll share bathhouses with showers, toilets and sinks, a short walk from your cabin. There are a few outhouse-style restrooms around camp. Bathhouses are separated by gender, and they're cleaned by camp staff.
