★★★★★Golden Well ApiariesThis is hands down my kid’s favorite camp of the summer! We only got in for one week (it fills up fast!) and she was begging to go for more time when it ended. The counselors are amazing and the spots they explore are incredible. I can’t recommend this camp enough… although maybe I should be more hush about it so there’s still room for us next year! Ha! And Mountain Kids, if you’re reading this, please start something for littler kids! My three yo would love this too! Thanks for providing such an incredible experience!
