Camp Karver- Where lake days end around the campfire.

Welcome to Camp Karver! Hidden among the trees at Lake of Egypt, Camp Karver feels like your own grown-up treehouse. Wake up to birds singing, watch deer out of every window, sip your coffee while looking out into the canopy, spend your day on the lake, and end the evening around the fire under the stars.

Designed with cozy vintage charm, earthy touches, and a little hippie soul, it’s the perfect place to slow down, reconnect, and make memories.

Perfect Location

You’ll be just minutes from some of Southern Illinois’ best attractions:

* Lake of Egypt boat ramps & marinas
* Ferne Clyffe State Park
* Shawnee Wine Trail
* Hiking, fishing, kayaking, boating, and local restaurants

Bringing Your Boat?

No problem! The long driveway easily accommodates trucks with fishing boats, jet skis, or trailers, making Camp Karver an ideal stay for lake weekends.
