Yawgoog Scout Reservation, Scout reservation in Rockville, Rhode Island, US.
The 1,800-acre reservation encompasses three distinct camps with separate dining halls, waterfronts, and trading posts across forested lands and lakes.
Founded in 1916 on the former Joseph Palmer farm property, Yawgoog Scout Reservation became the fifth oldest Boy Scout camp in the United States.
The reservation's name comes from local Narragansett Native American heritage, reflecting the regional connection to indigenous history through its facilities.
Each of the three camps - Three Point, Medicine Bow, and Sandy Beach - operates independently with dedicated facilities for outdoor activities and skill development.
The reservation served as a filming location for the 2011 movie Moonrise Kingdom, displaying its natural settings to wider audiences.
