    The best place to send your kids! This is needed now more than ever in our society a place where kids can be kids. Thanks Mini-yo-we for providing an awesome and unique experience for so many families.

  • Stephanie W.September 2025

    A small group of us went on a retreat at Camp Mini-Yo-We last weekend. We stayed in the girls' camp, and all of us had a really nice time.
    The grounds are just beautiful! The cabins have just what you need. The bathrooms were clean and well taken care of.
    There are lots of activities and things to do, but the staff who organized the activities and the kitchen crew really made the experience. All were so kind and helpful and thoughtful.
    Highly recommend!

  • Jennifer M.September 2026

    I went here for one week every summer since the time I was 8 to the time I was 15 (2006 - 2013). Absolutely loved it! Learned to sail, rock climb, canoe, kayak, all the great Canadian summer activities. If it's anything like it was a decade ago. 100% recommend. Great time.

    Antoine was great during the rock climbing, and just around the camp friendly and very likeable guy. Great employee, hope to see him next year!

  • Avery J.August 2026

    My experience as a woman of color here has been difficult. I have definitely felt on the outside, especially with some of the staff. A lot of the staffs kindness seems fake and it’s like they don’t want to get to know anyone else. I felt like I was being treated differently because of the color of my skin by how people looked and interacted with me. I have felt alone and sad and no one has really cared, and I also feel like they let racism just happen. I feel as Christians we are supposed to treat everyone equally and with kindness all the time just like Jesus did, and I feel this place does not reflect that a lot of the time.

    Had an amazing time with friends and family last summer. And the staff and volunteers were so accommodating with our groups' late night sessions in the chapel, our different diets, and overall just being amazing hosts. Thank you!
