“My son thought that the camp had just the right amount of activities to keep the children interested. The rock climbing, golfing, as well as the outdoor activities and swimming were perfect. He was very tired but in a good way. My son wants to return next year and I will recommend (推荐) this camp to others.”

—Kristin and Doug
“My children had an excellent time at your camp. I was very impressed with both your friendly, helpful staff and the excellent way that the entire camp was organized and run. I will recommend it to my friends and will consider next year!”
