What Bunkhouse is
Bunkhouse is web-based camp management software covering registration, payments, health records, and camp operations. Guardians can register several children in one checkout, answer session-specific questions, sign waivers, and join visible waitlists. Payments use a camp’s Stripe account and support deposits, installment plans, and refunds; card volume carries a 1% Bunkhouse platform fee. Bunk assignments enforce capacity, show buddy requests, and provide live rosters by session and bunk. Its health center stores camper forms, medication logs, and incident records, with role-restricted health details. Reports cover enrollment, revenue, outstanding balances, and form completion, with CSV export from every table. Director, Registrar, Nurse, and Staff roles are available, with unlimited users on every tier. Starter costs $99 a month for up to five active sessions. Pro costs $249 a month with unlimited sessions and adds the health center, UltraCamp and CampMinder importing, retreats, and facility rentals. A 14-day Pro trial requires no card.
