About CampFinder

One place to discover, compare, and plan Austin-area summer camps for your kids.

Why We Built This

A couple of summers ago, my wife spent weeks planning our son's camps. She wanted to expose him to new things — not just one type of camp all summer. He ended up doing ninja warrior, martial arts, an invention and science camp, and arts & crafts. Five different categories across one summer, each one a chance to discover something new.

Getting there was the hard part.

Scattered info

Googling, texting friends, and checking websites that all looked different.

Scheduling chaos

Every camp had different times. Coordinating with work and vacations was its own puzzle.

Friend coordination

Group chats full of screenshots that no one could keep straight.

Some camps listed prices. Some said “call for details.” A business with great Google reviews might still run a mediocre summer camp — the reviews are for the gym class, not the July program they put together as a side hustle. There's no way to know the difference.

“There should be one place where you can see all of this.”

One place with real pricing, locations, dates, and trusted information — so you can plan your summer without the chaos.

It was her idea. I just built it.

Why It Matters

Summer camps aren't just childcare. They shape our kids' lives. A martial arts camp builds confidence. A science camp sparks curiosity. An arts camp unlocks something a parent might never have thought to try. But none of that happens if families can't find the right camps in the first place.

Whether you're searching in Austin and surrounding areas, CampFinder is here to make that connection easier.

When parents can discover the right camps, everyone benefits — families, kids, and the camps themselves.
