Only five miles west of Cannon Falls, Phillippo Scout Reservation and
its 498 acres of rolling fields, wooded campsites and hills overlook
the beautiful Cannon River Valley. With easy access to both the Cannon
River and Cannon Valley Bike Trail the site is an ideal launching point
for a long distance trip. Since its opening in 1964, the site has
proved an ideal host for events of all sizes. The property is
even conveniently divided into an upper and lower level so that two
large events can occur simultaneously without issue. If you like
cool views, don’t forget to visit the picturesque Friendship Point
overlook on your next visit.
Originally named Cannon River Scout Reservation, Phillippo Scout
Reservation was rededicated in 2000 to honor Ron Phillippo’s long
tenure as a past Scouting CEO.
