Cutting the cord at the camp...what are my best streaming options?

I’m tired of paying $90 a month for cable only down at the camp. I’ve decided to swap the cable out for internet. What’s the cheapest way to stream to all my TVs? We have 3 TVs that I would like to be able to stream to. We have Apple TV’s at the house and love them. However, I’d rather not spend $100 each TV at the camp.

If someone at your camp has Directv at home, you could get a dish and a box and add it to their account.
Would be pretty cheap to add another box and you get all of their channels.
internet down there should be a no brainer if it is available. could stream all the LSU sports you want once you're done hunting/fishing

If you love sports channels and local channels....Youtube TV is the way to go. Its $49 per month. Slap a $39 firestick on each TV(not unless they are smart TVs and have the Youtube TV app available) and install YouTube TV app.
But like TigerRob said....your cheapest option would be to find a friend willing to give you a DirectTV box. Then just buy a splitter and run a cable to each TV. That's how my dad's TV setup is at his house. Only downside to that is you have to watch the same show on every TV....but it works out fine when you are watching football.

what do you really watch at the camp? Could you just fill up a hard drive and use that?

Chromecast devices cheaper option. Stream from phone or tablet.

Chromecast...we have 4 and just use our phone as the main hub and cast to a TV.

Chromecast is $35. Roku Express is $30. Both are good options.
You have to use a smart phone, tablet or computer to initiate a cast to a Chromecast whereas the Roku comes with a remote.
