Powered by GoogleAn amazing summer camp, I went over the course of 7 summers as a child and loved it then
Beautiful. We were only there for the day use picnic area by the water. Best place to have lunch.
The best camp on the face of planet earth. Send your kids here for two weeks for a couple of summers and you'll be amazed at how your kids are returned to you. YSSC does a fantastic job growing kids in Character, Skills, Relationship and Faith. Also, the staff are remarkable.
Amazing Camp. Faith Based. Truly recommend it. Friendly staff. Never had so much fun in a camp before.
Lovely camp. A short walk to a nice little lake. Clean dorm rooms. The bathrooms are functional though they could be a little nicer. But would be happy to stay here again.
