★★★★★Jeana LutherI’ve been sending my kids here since 2011. They have all lived it!
★★★★★Mark RichertWent with our church for an all church retreat. Great time! Fun, friendship, fellowship. Had a great speaker, Richard White, learned a lot. Facility staff was great, very attentive to our groups needs. Beautiful surroundings in the Laurel Highlands of SW PA, even though it was winter. Can't wait until next year.
★★★★★Stephen OttoGreat place, situated squarely within the Laurel Highlands, which I believe is one of the true gems in the entire United States - just a very special place. The Bible is truly the Word of God, and this is one place where your child may have an opportunity to put away the constant call of the electronic devices and see the priority that God would have us give to that Word. My prayers are with all the campers and staff this ‘25 season.
★★★★★Shane RogersWow! What a beautiful camp. This part of the country is stunning. And the camp is it's crown jewel. The staff were so great. The facilities were very nice...some of them brand new. The rooms were clean and spacious. The beds were comfortable--not at all like a "camp mattress" on squeaky metal bunks. The food was great! Our conference was very full, so I didn't get to see the whole camp, but what I saw was well kept and very attractive. Definitely a great place to draw near to God. Although my church is a bit far away (about 12 hours), the trip was definitely worth it. Many pastors I spoke with take their students there each summer. I would definitely recommend this camp to a friend.
★★★★★Mackenzie RothacherI went to this summer camp and it was one of the best experiences of my life!! The counselors were so nice and the staff was amazing! Everyone cheered and was so energetic as we pulled up and they continued that energy all week!! They never push you too far but they encourage you to the point of things that you never thought you could do! This was an amazing week of faith and friendship and it really changed who I am in so many ways. The food is amazing and they have a wonderful kitchen staff. The adventure staff is also so kind and wonderful and the A team makes it as fun and safe as possible! All of these people together, the counselors, the cits, the A team, the adventure staff, the kitchen staff and everyone else help make this such an amazing place for families and kids and young men and women to go! I would want to say thank you so much for an amazing experience I will never forget and I would encourage everyone who gets the chance to go as well!!
