I'm taking my two year old up to the bwca this year for the first time and I was wondering if anyone knows of a good site, or facebook group or place to buy and sell gently used kids camping gear. I will do some renting of gear until she's a size where I can buy some more permanent stuff but I'm looking for a way to save some money while she is still growing.

Join the Private Group Forum: Canoeing with kids ... lots of info there (probably not any on gear exchanges)

In my opinion- kids don't really need any special camping gear- other than a life jacket. I thought about buying a recliner seat for our 4 month old- but decided it was a one time use and he'd be out of it by this summer.

The only specialized gear I can imagine you'd need would be a Life jacket. I'd suggest getting this new.
