★★★★★Christine Roberson PhippsIt was a wonderful experience spending the weekend here for my sister's Camp Holiday Lake Wedding Weekend! The location was perfect for the variety of events, and the accommodations in the pods were as comfortable as I have known. The night views of the stars are breathtaking, and it could not be more peaceful out here. Look up at the Heavens from Holiday Lake 4-H Camp.
★★★★BillyLove the park, the trail around the lake was beautiful. Very isolated, great destination in the winter. Didn’t see another human.
★★★★★David GallagherMy oldest boy went for the weekend for a cooking class. It's small but really nice.
★★★★★Jessica AGreat camp. My son had such a wonderful experience 🏕️
★★★★★Christopher Rose4-H Camp feels like home. I went to Holiday Lake for 4-H Camp every summer from age 9 until age 21. I had visited each summer for a few years after that but hadn't been back in a few years. I recently got to visit again and it just made my soul so happy. I can't wait for my child to be old enough to go.
