★★★★★Vonnie RungI grew up attending camp here and am very happy to send my kids here now! My youngest son just got back and loved it.
★★★★★Nanette BuleboshI was here for a church retreat in early November 2024. I think no matter what you’re going through or what stress you’re feeling, you will feel better after spending time on these beautiful grounds. I especially love the chapel and the view of the lake from the chapel. It was chilly so I didn’t spend a lot of time walking outside, but I imagine outdoor events, such as campfires would be fabulous.
★★★★★Julia SzukalaWe hosted our wedding at Daycholah Center and it was beautiful! The staff was very accommodating and supportive throughout the process. Ley Chapel is a stunning and spiritual space!
★★★★★Andrew BurtonOur family spent 5 days/4 nights at Daycholah Center and loved it. The staff was friendly and so fun for our kids to play, laugh and sing with throughout the week. We were part of a Family Camp and we got to experience what sending our kids on their own to a weeklong camp would be like. And based on our experience, we expect to be doing so in years to come. The food was excellent. The closest thing to cooking or cleaning up after meals we had to do was scraping off our dishes and stacking them up for the kitchen staff. (And frankly, we appreciated this small task because it helps to train the little ones in cleaning up after themselves.) The grounds are beautiful. The buildings are comfortable and clean. The staff is outstanding. If you have a chance to be here, take it. You won't regret it.
★★★★★Up TownWe went there with our church group For Confirmation and it was a good experience and the kids enjoyed it it was good but it needed more Bible and less free time but we were blessed to be there they did a great job.
