★★★★★Chance CurryAs a kid I absolutely loved coming to Alpine Camp. I learned so many different things. I'm almost 40 and still talk about it. I wish I could afford to send my two sons there!
★★★★★Craig WinnBeautiful. Clean. Green. Love this secluded private camp in the Mentone mountains. Very impressed with the open very well kept spaces. Open area Gym, cabins, rocking chairs, trees, flowing water. Wish I knew about them when raising my young kids.
★★★★★Amanda ThamesAlpine is a wonderful Christian camp that teaches Biblical, Gospel, and Jesus-centered truths, which can be watered down in today’s world. Boys can be boys by being outside most of the day (away from screens) and also being poured into by the amazing counselors and staff to learn and grow in their faith. A truly life changing experience for our sons.
★★★★★Stewart FinleyI attended this camp half a century ago, and very few memories are as vivid or more fondly kept. I wish I could have given my son this experience. He's 30 now, and even though he has grown to be a fine hardworking man, I can only imagine his attendance here as a young boy would have only made him turn out even better.
★★★★★Walker LakeI have gone to this camp for 7 years now. This year will be my 8th year in a row to go. It has a very Christian atmosphere. If you are not religious. You can just ignore the prayers, and not pay attention in church. I am a believer of Christ though. I would send my child here if i had one. 1. Great food 2. Lots of activities 3. Bonding relationships with one another 4. A Pattie at the end of the experience. 5. You go on a trip depending on your age to Chattanooga or white water rafting, or roller coasters. Will post pictures later.
