★★★★★Mike GThis camp is a great place for the Scouts. There is a large dining area with a fireplace, a big lake for all the swimming and boating merit badges, many houses to stay in, and all in a very relaxed rural atmosphere.
★★★★★Finnegan WeeksThis place is amazing. We came here for a week for Boy Scouts, and I got to drive a small boat, learn about environmental science, and also take a painting class. I enjoyed this a lot, and would definitely come again (hopefully next year)!
★★★★★Amy BrownOn the Camp Independence side, newer bathhouse with numerous single showers/bathroom combos and water bottle filling station, really nice hiking trails, permanent orienteering course, easy walk to the lake for aquatics, and latrines with running water at every campsite (not sure if that water is potable though as we brought a 5-gallon jug to sit at the campsite and filled up at the dining hall/water bottle filling station). Kids loved playing on the pirate ship and fort, and the camp staff is always helpful and amazing.
★★★★Fiona LillyI've been going her for years. In fact, my profile picture was taken on lake courage by the freedom beach. Heritage, and especially camp freedom, offer a lovely summer camp experience to all scouts. There are still issues with creating a good environment for minorities in scouting that come from the national and council levels that trickle down into the camping experience. There is no way to deny that. At the same time, I commend the staff for the lengths they'll go to to protect the scouts under their care. During the off season, they hold other fun events, or you can visit for a nice hike around the lake. Definitely check it out!!
★★★★★Logan NeidermeyerA great scouting reservation featuring 4 total camps, one for younger cub scouts, 2 for Boy Scouts (one with a dining hall and the other with cookouts at your own site), and the final being Eagle Base. I’ve camped here for many years enjoying the merit badges offered, as well as the staff. This is a great option for your troop if you are able to fund raise a bit.
