    signed up for canoe trip summer 2017 , got to camp and they didn't let me go on the trip. Apparently if you haven't really gone canoeing your entire life or you're new to this camp. They do NOT have any empathy or compassion for people with disabilities and totally ABLEIST! I was 15 years old and have an anxiety disorder , they told me I could not go on this trip because I would ruin it for other kids if ever there was a serious emergency. The lack of compassion in this admin is 0 to none. I seriously wanted to give 0 stars but can’t. Highly do not recommend. This Ruined my summer

    Third year for my daughter. Had to force her to go the first year. She came back and made me promise she could go next year.

    Amazing place to spend time as staff or as a camper. Great experience!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Nathan D.March 2019

    as a troubled child, camp was the only place that brought me hope. The cabin leaders (esp. Fenris and Balboa) were always caring, and the canoe tripping was both rigorous and impactful. I came back stronger in body, mind, and spirit.

  • Callum M.July 2024

    Just got back from my fourth year there, and it only gets more fun. All of the different programs offer a new, fresh, and fun experience.

  • Mike L.August 2018

    My kids come back stronger, more mature, community-oriented and willing to help around the house.
