What this camp might lack in 5 star hotel lodging they more than make up for in personal attention to campers. They remember every camper by name, send them birthday cards, and make sure each one is recognized as a VERY special person. They have been doing this for 35 years with an impeccable safety record. They are even an international training center for emergency preparedness. I have never met a camper that didnt come home wanting to return immediately. I know I grew up with a guy who has been coming for 35 years without missing a season!
