★★★★Jose SanchezWent for a school field trip. Was upset as a parent nothing to do for us but walk around. I thought they would at least let us enjoy the water activities as well. Kids had fun.

★★★★★Jaime ErdbergMy family loves Camp Cosby! My daughters are the second generation to go through camp and I know it will continue for years to come. They love being down by the lakeshore!!
★★★★★Button SmithI am so thrilled that my daughter loves Camp Cosby as much as I did. She had fun as a first time ADV camper this year, so much so that she has asked to go for TWO weeks this summer! Cosby is such a special place and I am grateful that she has the opportunity to attend.
★★★★★Jeff GreenMy kids had their first experience this year at Camp Cosby. They both loved it! My son was a little nervous but that quickly subsided when he got there. They had something to do constantly and ZERO SCREEN TIME. They can't wait to go back next summer! Highly recommend!
