★★★★★Joy

A good Bible camp in Polk, PA. ( Needs some improvements if they can afford it) Your kids will be safe, have fun, cared about and learn a lot about the Lord! (The most important thing)✝️

★★★★★Elaina Anderson

I've camped at SHBC since I was 4 years old, have gone to snow camp here, and have worked here. Every experience I have is positive. The camp is beautiful and everyone is so kind. It is a wonderful place to grow in your spirituality and to have a good time.

Matthew Perez

Camp staff are rude and not engaged, if middle school and high school students are welcome than staff should be more equipped and excited to serve them. Staff are easily frustrated and yell at campers. Food quality can be increased, food came out cold when should be warm. Food is left out way before it’s time to serve. Don’t seem that the staff are on the same page so better communication would be helpful. Why the camp staff was Stopping youthful events, music and other times to be “hype” was very off putting.

★★★★★Olympia

Took kids (8,12 and 16) to the open climb night. They had a blast and the staff working was awesome. They really encouraged the kids to keep going when they were getting nervous and wanted to give up. All 3 ended up making it to the top to ring at least one bell

★★★★★Nathan Hobbs

This is one of the best places on Earth! The staff are extremely friendly and supportive, the community goes out of their way to make people feel welcome, and everyone feels like they belong. The environment here empowers people to grow in their faith without fear of judgment or criticism. Additionally, this place has one of the cleanest facilities I have ever had the opportunity to visit, along with food that would please any judge. I truly cannot thank Seneca Hills enough for the opportunities they provide.
