★★★★★Gray West

This place means more to me than I can put into words here. Amazingly kind staff and volunteers and a beautiful campground.

★★★★★Alexander Gonzalez

What an amazing experience and the staff were wonderful, couldn't image a place where you can call it home. A place where you meet different faces, especially the hospitality and the living spaces were very comfortable. Would trade anything to visit them or stay.

I had the opportunity to volunteer for maintenance prior to the arrival of guests. We had cleaned pine needles, stained wood, and set up several structures. Many of the cabins are very nice. The site has a peaceful setting away from everything. Overall great experience.

★★★★★Kathy A

Had a fabulous time. I was able to have lunch with some of the campers and it was so much fun. Counselors were absolutely amazing. So interactive. Lots of laughing!
