This site houses the original train station and post office, built in the 1850's, for the town of Dancy, Wisconsin. Not only that, it is now the site of Dancy Art Camp, and campers have access to all the fun art camp spaces during your stay.

Baked goods and other treats also available for purchase upon request. You will have full access to the campfire circle, outdoor game room (foosball for the win!), and nature playscape (yes, even adults can swing on the rope!). The property also provides other outdoor games such as good ole' fashioned tetherball, a gaga ball pit (Israeli Dodgeball), and a variety of other sport equipment to use during your stay.
