★★★★★Skye BjorklundIncredible summer camp! I have been going here for years. People will drive 5 hours just to go to this camp. They offer tons of different programs in a very safe and loving environment. It's extremely God-oriented, which is great because I have been to other supposedly religious camps that aren't really religious at all. I have made almost 20 good friends so far, and I have made some awesome memories.
★★★★★Tom BombadilAmazing camp with so many activities and lots of trails to explore. They have added so many things to do from ziplines and climbing wall, to the waterfront with a trampoline and launch bag. Great place to have your kids go to camp, very amazing people as counselors. There are cabins and lodge you can stay at for a retreat or family reunion. Reccomend it for anyone with kids to have an amazing experience at camp. Generations of family's have gotten to experience this wonderful place. Even a grandparents week that you can go and have a relaxing week and get to see the kids have a great time.
★★★★GguyNice camp for the most part. They have a dorm to stay in and lots of space in the main lodge for larger groups to enjoy. The large covered patio overlooking the lake is really nice too. Enjoyed our visit.
★★★★★Michael HickmanWe had a great time at our family reunion held there. We slept in Kempski Lodge and fixed meals in Haines Hall. We caught up with each other and had a great time. Really enjoyed the beach and the lake, swimming, kayaking, and canoeing.
★★★★Al SteffenGood central location of lodge and surrounding activity centers. Good beach front and canoeing/kayaking options. Not buggy at all! Nice view of sunset over lake.
