Customer Reviews
This year was nice! We arrived on the first week to do some merit badges. I tented with my friend and thought we had to sleep right next to each other because bug nets were having Trouble reaching the wood beam at the top of the tent. This year was not as bad as last year and though it rained a lot on Thursday and we had to rush to move all of our stuff in our tents so it wouldn't get soaked. We even dominated the troop wide games this year getting first in almost everything and at least one scout made the top three in every event. Also Fred hoity toilets was also great so we can have good bathrooms at camp (thank you Fred)! The slushies this year was an amazing idea and I had one every day. Overall I had a fun time this year and made some memories with my fellow scouts. Troop 19 best you'
What an amazing place! The staff is super helpful, lots to do for the troops, the food was yummy, pool looked inviting and the trails fun! There is a visitors nite (usually a Wednesday) and volunteers are always welcome to help keep the BSA Camp going!! Absolutely a lovely, peaceful place to learn the "ropes" for life!
What makes a great Scout camp is not the facilities but the staff. The staff is hard to beat anywhere. It rained all but the last day while we were here with our troop. Due to the staff? Despite the weather the boys had a wonderful time anyway. I can't give them a better compliment than that.
Horrible experience. Dining rules need to change. They forced our scouts to be separated every single meal, never allowing kids to move seats. They claimed this is how it has always been done….but “always” was long before girls were in scouts. The staff was rude and not engaging, the worst was handicraft. We will never be back.
Beautiful area. Very clean and well kept. If it had some indoor bathrooms I would give it 5 stars. I understand it's a camp but this woman visiting her son at camp needs a toilet that flushes!
