Rent the Camp

• The Lutt Family Amphitheater: The pride and joy of Cazadero Music Camp is named after the founders of Cazadero Music Camp, Bob and Beth Lutt and their family. With a new and dramatic roof constructed in 2009, the amphitheater is a great venue for concerts, rehearsals, theater or even a wedding.
• The Rehearsal Deck: The rehearsal deck in the Family Grove area of the camp is a great location for rehearsals, dancing, receptions, weddings or just plain hanging out.
• The Caz Lodge and Deck: The Lodge can serve a variety of functions for your group. It can accommodate a small program, be the focal point of your group event and is great for evening activities. The Deck along the back of The Lodge overlooks Austin Creek and is a great place to eat meals, meet, rehearse or sit back and relax to the sounds of the creek below.
• The Dining Hall: Typical camp food this is not! Enjoy the comforts of being away from home with three delicious and nutritious meals a day. With a capacity of 250 per seating, the dining hall is a focal point for meals, programs, meetings or evening activities. Head Chef Anita Mazzaferro will work with your group to provide excellent food with great service to you and your group.
• The Pool: The Caz Pool is the refreshing and cooling spot at Caz. Use the pool or just the patio for a poolside gathering. Groups using the pool need to supply their own certified lifeguard.
• Recreation Courts and Field: Even at music camp kids need recreation. Basketball, volleyball, ping pong, softball, football, soccer and a whole lot more are available at Caz. Use the camp equipment or bring your own.
• Austin Creek: With Austin Creek meandering through the camp grounds, the options for fun and education are endless. Watch for herons, steelhead and even the famed Caz shrimp. Walk the banks and see all the frequent visitors to Caz and Austin Creek.
• Infirmary: Caz has a health lodge located in the center of camp for campers that get hurt or find that they don’t feel well. Although Caz does not supply a nurse for rental groups, groups have access to the infirmary.

• Dorm Rooms: Caz has 12 dorm rooms available for use while renting the camp. The dorm rooms sleep two comfortably and are furnished with cots and mattresses. Each room is in close proximity to a bathroom and shower.
• Tents and Tent Decks: Tents and tent decks are unique at Cazadero. Canvas tents fastened over a tent frame make these an weekend home you will enjoy. Caz has 46 tent cabins located on 33 tent decks. Each tent sleeps up to four and are furnished with cots and mattresses. Each tent deck has an electrical outlet and all are located in close proximity to a bathroom and shower house. Some of the tent decks are larger than others and provide an additional area for rehearsals, meetings gatherings or a quiet enjoyment of the great outdoors.
