While there may be frost on the ground, we at Camp CDA are already fully planning for a fun season ahead. Days on the water, evenings around the campfire, and some powerful appetites are all part of the fun. Here is a quick and simple one-pot, our favorite kind, of dinner from our friends at Fresh off the Grid. If asparagus isn’t your thing, feel free to substitute any vegetable you like.
Although the thermometer is dipping low in much of the country, dreams of the endless summer continues. Snow outside means making plans for a trip to the lake when the heat index increases. Holiday time with friends and family means checking dates on the calendar to head to camp. And what does heading to camp mean? What’s for dinner? A weekend away seeks easy, delicious dishes, that require little clean-up. Even a full week of holiday will do well with some simple and easy dinner fare after a long day at the lake or exploring.
From our friends at Desert Now Dinner Later we bring you Southwestern Chicken Packets. These simple to prep and easy to cook and the individual packet options allows for different taste preferences. Try them out in your oven this winter and I bet you’ll be bringing them along to camp next year!
Well, summer has officially arrived in CDA! The dog days of summer call for lake time, lazy days around camp, and cool drinks. It also calls for easy, cooling dinners that don’t take hours to create.
Summer is hopping here at Camp CDA and we can’t believe it’s already July! Happy guests continue to flock to camp to enjoy our amazing setting and continuing improvements. Here are just a few pics and reviews from the last month. Camp stickers are for sale in the camp store and are proving to be a popular memento of camp.
Everyone loves a one-skillet dinner but this is especially relevant when camping. Ease of prep and ease of clean-up means more time for fun! This is one of our very favorite one-skillet dinners. The recipe is Indian inspired, however, by simply changing up the spices used can lend itself to whatever flavor profile you desire. Chef Asha Gomez has created a nearly perfect camp dinner.
Summertime is coming and the livin’ is easy! Long days, starry nights, and camp cooking are what we dream of during the cold days of winter. With the camp opening in a short time, our attention returns to all of the delicious meals we’ll create and burgers are an enduring favorite.

Here at Camp Coeur d’Alene we see a little bit of everything. With our close proximity to town, and with a tent, RV, and cabin rentals, dinner hour becomes an extravaganza of sights and smells.
