WOW I was sitting here reminiscing about my childhood. I have nothing but great minds at Camp Garrett. I'm 55 years old and in the 70's I was there every summer. I was everything from a Bumblebee - a Sparrow and whatever in Between. We had Nature,Tennis, Archery, Photography, Arts and crafts, Swim twice a day. I can go on and on about the fun I had. Camp Garrett taught me to swim. They even taught us Morse code. It was such an experience. I always brag about Camp Garrett!!!!! 😁🥰💖 I will always cherish such great memories ❣️

They let me drown when I was 4 and didn’t tell my parents, I had to tell them. I also lost swimming privileges for the rest of the time I was there. Granted, if the life guard had been paying attention, I probably wouldn’t have drowned in the first place. I was subsequently yelled at for drowning and the girl who took me over to the deep end and LEFT me there holding on the wall got off Scott free. I dont know how much has changed but regardless, if the owners are still the same, I wouldn’t send your kid here

My kids have been coming here for years, great nature-based summer camp with tons of acreage for the kids to run/explore. Very fortunate to have a place like this in Delaware County.
