What's provided at the camp?

Polaris has an in-camp chef that prepares meals with many dietary restrictions in mind. Polaris is an inclusive global community of campers and if communicated in advance, we do our absolute best to accommodate majority of dietary preferences.

In addition to meals, we offer shade structure from the elements, bikes, drinking water, shower capabilities, fireside chats, and charging stations for phones.

What's on the menu at Polaris?

Our in-house chef serves up healthy and nutritious meals, catering to all dietary preferences, to keep you fueled for the adventure ahead.

Are there any camp duties during the stay?

As part of our commitment to the principles of decommodification and communal effort, campers are encouraged to participate in community service by volunteering for two shifts throughout the week.

Can I bring an RV?

We've got limited spots available on a first-come, first-served basis. If you're bringing an RV, be sure to reserve your spot and pay the designated fee, which includes 2 water fill ups, 2 grey water pumps per week, and access to fuel for generators.

Can I bring a car?

Absolutely! You're welcome to bring your own car. However, please note that vehicle parking is limited and we only have a few spots available. In addition to parking permits required by Burning Man organization, we ask for a $100 donation to reserve a space. Please let us know in advance if requesting a parking space.
