Resources & Rentals
Reservations are open to units through our Tentaroo platform and are considered "locked in" after full payment has been made. We suggest paying online through Tentaroo immediately after setting up your trip and making your facilities reservation(s).
- There is a 3% processing fee for using credit cards through Tentaroo.
- There is no processing fee for using the echeck option through Tentaroo.
Payment can be made in person at the Council Service Center, by mail or by phone. Keep in mind that your reservation is not "locked in" until payment is made; your dates and/or facilites could be rented by someone else if you do not complete the check out process. If you have questions, please email reservations@loudthunder.org or call the Illowa Council Service Center at (563) 388-7233.
Through the Tentaroo Facilities Platform, you can:
- Check dates for availability
- Check pricing for different facilities
- View information and pictures of the facilities
- Create a Trip
- Add Facilities Reservations to that trip
- Complete payment to lock in your rental
BEFORE ACCESSING THE FACILITIES RENTAL PLATFORM, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
- We ask that you please use the names and cell phone numbers of the people that will be actually attending during the trip. This helps our Campmasters know who to reach out to if there is an issue. No landlines, please.
- We ask that when you create a new Trip, please add your Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) and your Departure Time to the Additional Information Section.
- If you need further assistance on setting up a trip, please see the instructional video from Tentaroo below.
- One thing that's different than before... RD Dunkin Lodge and our 3 Primitive Cabins can no longer be rented for one night over a weekend. You must rent these facilities for the full weekend (Friday through Sunday).
Please read items 1, 2, 3, and 4 above before accessing the Loud Thunder Facilities Rental Platform below.
Who Can Rent?
At present, ONLY Scouting units are able to rent facilities. This means that you must log in under your unit's Tentaroo account (NOT your individual/family account). If you are wanting to use your individual/family account for rentals, or if you are a Non-Scouter, please contact the Illowa Council Service Center at reservations@loudthunder.org to request Facilities Rental access for your account.
