So many good memories here! We went to Family Camp for 10+ years. We met lifelong friends and our kids have wonderful memories of playing by the waterfall, horseback riding, swimming in the pool and ending the night around the campfire.
i’ve been to this place many times, mostly good experiences except for the time i got scratched by a raccoon in the middle of the night when we were sleeping on the bluff and i got scratched by a raccoon in my foot and none of the counselors took me seriously and forced me into playing sand volleyball and it got even worse!! the only time they finally took me seriously was when a fellow camper (probably like 11) mentioned that it could be a raccoon scratch. fun times. or the time that i stopped for a split second on a hike and got lost for 20 minutes and nobody noticed!!
I was a camp counselor in 2006 & 2007 and also got married at camp in 2012. We recently rented the cabins for Easter weekend. I love all the upgrades in the past decade! It’s harder to sleep on a cot mattress or futon as an adult, however 😉
This was a very beatiful place. We didn't go as campers but for a music festival that used to be there. So I have no idea what the camping experience is like. Groups can rent this place also and one time we were there it was a quilting group that rented it for the weekend. We stayed in one of the lodges and that was very nice. We also stayed in a room in the main lodge of which there a several. The two we stayed in were nice. Everything was clean and comfortable enough.
