My children have adored their summers here. They look forward to camp all year. So many creative events and activities.

★★★★★Stewart Ramsay

A place that holds many great memories. If you get the chance to go and spend the summer there then you must.

★★★★★Benny Katz

The best place on Earth. Scatico is my happy place and is all I think about 24/7 from the moment I get home every summer. I couldn’t love this camp more.

★★★★Federico Pirino

We were there for a wedding and stayed there with the family. The grounds were nicely maintained and the staff was courteous and always available. Beautiful view and great lake with a lovely beach

★★★★★Andrew Kahn

All I can say is 5*. Scatico helped mold me and my siblings into the friends, adults, and parents we are today. "Trying to describe Scatico to someone is like trying to explain the color green to a blind person."
