Free camps? Yes, there is such a thing as free camps. We've done quite some research to find camps in and around Austin (up to a 4 hr radius) that are not a financial burden to families, especially families that already have enough to worry about.

Introducing the Live Grow Play Austin Camp Guide


We are super excited to announce that we’ve rolled out our new Camp Guide!

The past few months we’ve been researching and reviewing camp guides currently available for camps in and around Austin and found that most guides are available in either print, as a PDF, or simply as an online list with no search functionality.

Many camp providers offer multiple camps and camp sessions for different age groups, with different themes, at different dates, at multiple locations, and at different prices.

So, to make it easy for you, we made the Live Grow Play Austin Camp Guide fully searchable by interest, camp type, camp location, camp dates, age of campers, and price. Check it out.
