I have been to the camp multiple times. The owner has a great attitude. The owner keeps up on his camp always fixing things. Beautiful waterfront properties

Extremely ignorant children in this camp and very young counselors that seem too concerned to be cool then being responsible. My family and I went to Funtown/splashtown today. And these camp kids were there. Lack of supervision on the staffs part. The kids were acting like they owned the place. Kept cutting lines and causing my family and I forced to leave areas because we barely had chances to get on rides because of these kids. I’m all for kids having fun, but these kids were wild and acted extremely entitled.

Cannot say enough amazing things about Camp Matoaka! It truly is a magical place! Both of my daughters enjoy every second of their time here and we are so grateful to have found such a special place!

This is my second summer working as a bunk counselor and instructor at Matoaka. Matoaka is the best Summer Camp you'll find with a great variety of activities for girls 8 to 15. They bring international staff every year so it is also an amazing place for cultural exchange. Matoaka facilities are top notch 👌 and their leadership team is very committed to providing the best experiences for both campers and staff.
