★★★★William ComstockOverall great, the food... the food though... was not the greatest... except for the rice. It was WORSE. Spine chillingly horrible, tasted more like wet chalk than rice. Everything else there, awesome 👀👀👀👀 (Leaving is the worst part!!!)
★★★★Old AccountExcellent staff. Great selection of Merit Badge Courses. Beautiful views of the Bay. Memorable Campfire Shows. Overall a great experience for Scouts! Only reason I am rating Four Stars is because the Mess Hall food is good and plentiful, but could be better, and the seating of troops better organized. - Leaving room for improvements... We look forward to returning next Summer!
★★★★NANCY GILBERTThis is a BSA camp that has a lot to offer. Its aquatic program is great! The food is very good and they have a salad bar every night with a lot of variety. I counselors show enthusiasm. There is a long walk between areas, so you really need to bring bikes. They are working on updating the latrines. You have a beautiful view of the Chesapeake from many of the campsite.
★★★★★Stefan LeebFantastic camp....best of the many I have been to. Great location on the Chesapeake Bay, well maintained facilities, awesome staff, large variety of program activities both day and evening, and best camp food I have had. Looking forward to going back next year!
★★★★★Robert FulcherMy favorite BSA camp for weekend camping for over a decade. It's beautiful, the cabins and campsites are great, and the activities are plentiful. Plus you can't beat a hike along the Bay's shoreline. Even with any many trips as I've taken there, I know that there is more to explore within the wilderness area and other campsites. Truly a great place to go!
