Edward N. Cole Canoe Base is a 1,489 acre piece of wilderness, nestled along the banks of the beautiful Rifle River in Ogemaw County, Michigan. We are one of the premier summer camping destinations for thousands of youth and adult leaders from all over the Midwest for over 50 years. We are owned and operated by the Michigan Crossroads Council of the Boy Scouts of America.
Are you and your unit looking for a traditional summer camping program? We offer scouts opportunities to earn over 95 merit badges during our week long summer camp program. We also offer nightly camp wide events, and daily programs designed to let scouts choose their own activities, providing opportunities for scouts to advance their skills in athletics, crafts, and basic scout skills, cooking, swimming and boating. This past summer camping season we have a unit return rate of over 85%.
We're proud to be a patrol cooking camp. This means daily meals are prepared in your campsite by youth and adults. No waiting in line at the dining hall here! Just pick up your ingredients from the commissary and take them back to camp to prepare our simple but filling, dietician approved menu. Don't like what's on the menu? Swap it out for one of our alternative meal options!
Our high adventure program provides older scouts an opportunity to stray from the traditional summer camp experience and put their outdoor skills to the test, on canoe trips on three of Michigan's most scenic rivers- the Rifle River, the Fox-Manistique, and the Au Sable. We also are hosts to the ATV Safety Institue's ATV Rider course and offer trail rides in and out of base camp.
