| Lodging Facilities:
If you are looking forward to a nature retreat but not necessarily to
roughing it, Howard H. Cherry Scout Reservation is just the place for your
group. The Allsop Center provides affordable housing that will
ensure your campers sleep well without being too luxurious so as to
encourage them to hibernate in their rooms. The center has 18 rooms
with four beds in each. All rooms are furnished with two new sets of
bunk bed, 2 wardrobes, as well as a desk and chair. Each room is
wired for Internet usage. Groups may use the rooms as quads,
triples, doubles, or singles, as they see fit.
Although each room does not possess its own
bathroom, private showers are available in the shared hall
restrooms. Laundry facilities and light preparation kitchen
facilities are also available.
