Wonderful people running this camp; lakeftont dock including kayaks single and double, paddle boats, single and double and paddle boards. There's also always a game of ping pong or volleyball going on too!

★★★★★Thomas Jost

Love this place! Made so many friends, went to the lake/island, pranked, felt the presence of the lord, and overall had a bunch of fun! Would totally recommend coming to Keola. I'm definitely coming back next year. Love this place!

★★★★★Brad Biocca

My best childhood memories are full of this place. I am grateful for the time I got to spend here.

★★Tyler Fremming

Was a great camp, but has decided to affiliate with Pacific Southwestern Mennonite conference which is the liberal slant denomination on critical issues. I was looking forward to sending my kids here after attending/working here - but it is no longer an option. it will become primarily a respite for liberal churches that have deviated from the Word. As a camp it is the best setup ever, but I don't trust it's theology anymore. You can rent it for your own purposes, which would be fine if that is your interest.
