Camping

Welcome, Geocachers!

Thanks for your interest in the West Bend $1000 Cache Ba$h! As a committee member, I decided to put together a more cacher-friendly list of both hotels AND campgrounds for those of you coming from out of town, depending on your lodging preference. Be sure to make your reservations early before everything is booked! Note: This list was done on my own, and it is not affiliated with the WB Chamber. Let me know if there is something I should change or add. Thank you.

Note: If you're trying to make last-minute reservations for the event, call the West Bend Chamber. They know which hotels still have room!
