What’s a more girlhood thing to do than head out to Girl Scout Camp for the summer? Unfortunately, Girl Scout camps in Oklahoma have a bit of a bad connotation after the “Girl Scout Murders” at Camp Scott in 1977. Multiple murders took place at a summer camp, and the tragedy will never be forgotten.

But not all Girl Scout Camps have bad memories! In fact, Camp Red Rock opened in the 1950s as a Girl Scout Camp in Binger and was the home of many fond memories until it closed down in 2010. The location is now privately owned and off-limits, but many pieces of the camp still sit in their original location and are withering away. Abandoned Oklahoma was able to get photos of the deserted camp, and they are a bit eerie. Check them out:

Camp Red Rock was built in the late 1940s and opened its doors sometime in the mid-50s. When the camp originally opened it was relatively small and could only house a few girls.

It flourished for many years and received a large donation, making it possible to expand the camp and add more buildings to house more girls and staff.

It was a beautiful camp in its time with many lasting memories created there. In its prime, it had a swimming pool, plenty of arts & crafts offerings, an outpost, horseback riding stables, guided nature tours, and so much more.

Unfortunately, it eventually closed down in 2010 after a decision was made to merge with another Girl Scout camp in the state. The camp leaders wanted to save money and bring the community together into one larger camp.
After closing in 2010, the camp sat abandoned and forgotten for many years, while its buildings and their contents gathered dust.

The buildings had beds, cots, supplies, and furniture left behind. And many of the furniture pieces are still standing in their original locations.
