My friends and I surprised one of our friends with a trip to Safari Lake Geneva to kick off her…read morebachelorette weekend, and we all ended up having a great time. None of us had ever done a drive through safari before, so it felt like a really unique and memorable activity. When we first arrived, it was a little confusing figuring out exactly where to go to start the drive-through experience. The signage could have been clearer. Thankfully, we visited near the end of their open season and at a slower time of day, so the entrance area was not crowded and we were able to take our time getting started. One thing to be aware of is that the driving trail has a lot of potholes and uneven spots, so you definitely need to drive slowly and carefully. Some sections of the path are pretty bumpy, especially if you are not expecting it. We decided not to buy the animal feed because at the beginning, we were a little nervous about opening our windows, and also did not want food all over the car. Even without feeding them, we still got very close to a lot of animals and were able to pet them through our open windows when we felt comfortable doing so. Throughout the drive, you see animals like deer, camels, llamas, alpacas, bison, antelope, and tons of ostriches and emus. There were also a couple of giraffes and zebras toward the end. The ostriches were definitely the most aggressive and curious. They walked right up to the cars and pecked at windows, which had us laughing and slightly panicking at the same time. We also noticed there was animal spit all over the outside of the car from all of the animals trying to get food from us, despite us not having any. There are not a huge number of different species, and you will see some of the same animals many times along the route, but it was still fun to take pictures and watch how the animals interacted with the cars. Admittedly, I felt bad for the animals because I feel like it could be easy for a car to accidentally run them over. Some animals took a long time to move out of the car's way, and because the safari is just one big open field where the animals can freely roam around, the animals come out of nowhere sometimes. Once the driving part was over, we looked at the other parts of the safari where you could walk around. We saw pigs, little monkeys, donkeys, and more! I love how interactive the experience is and how you can't pet animals at a zoo, but you can here. Pricewise, it wasn't crazy and ended up being about $23 per person because they don't charge per vehicle; they charge per person. Overall, this was a really fun and unique experience that made for a great start to our friend's bachelorette weekend. It is definitely something different to do if you are in the Lake Geneva area, but just be prepared for a bumpy drive and some very curious animals.

We did the safari and had a blast. Took my nephew and mom and we laughed the entire way through. We…read morehad bought plenty of food and boy the animals were right at our car. My only concern was avoiding the horns from scratching the car! The only thing t improve this would be if there were signs up at least saying what sort of animals you may encounter in certain areas. There were several that we were like, what is that?! It was in the 90's when we went so we did the car ride only, not the walking area. So fun!

If you ever need to get away, Lake Geneva is definitely the place to do it. Less than 90-minutes…read moreaway, unless you're Speed Racer, this is a nice little retreat with many rooms, a great lake to lounge and relax, and serenity that you seek outside of the city life. Keep in mind, if you can come here for non-religious reasons as well, as there were a few family reunions that had events here. The rooms of Covenant were decent. I would compare it to a hotel room. The room we had featured two twin beds, and we were able to fit in two twin-sized rolling cots as well. That's four dudes in one room, and we were somewhat comfortable. The sink, bathroom, and toilet were all in different rooms, so if you need to take care of business, it won't hinder someone from being able to shower, or brush their teeth. The staff here was super-nice and the rope course was the highlight of the place! We had so much fun doing team activities and how it tied in things spiritually. The only gripe about this place was the cafeteria food; at one point, the lunch that was served to us consisted of deli lunch meat. Not that great, but I guess, did the trick. If you are looking for a little bit of more hustle and bustle, Covenant is about a 15-minute walk to downtown Lake Geneva. Overall, staff and rooms were accommodating and decent. Bathroom in the hallway was clean as well. BATHROOM REVIEW: Reviewing the hallway public bathroom, the men's consisted of two standing urinals and two stalls. The urinals were super long and went all the way to the floor, so there's no chance of missing. The stalls seemed sturdy and were definitely functional. Soap dispensers were automatic and hand-free and overall the cleanliness was definitely there. Sit or squat? Squat.

This is the best overnight summer camp I've been to. Let me start with the fact that it is for…read moreChristians, but I've brought a friend here that was a different religion. It was okay for her, she said it was a little weird, but she had fun in the activities, like swimming, rope-climbing, etc. Anyways, it's designed to help current Christians with their faith and help other kids who don't exactly have a religion (I don't really know if that's possible, but whatever) find someone to have faith in. There are morning and night-time activities everyday when we play fun games, watch skits, and sing songs. It's way more fun than I described it. The staff here is AMAZING. They are mostly all college students and some that just graduated. They are always nice and never get extremely mad at you. They are all laid-back, fun people, which is why they got picked to be a counselor here. The housing there is actually a lot better than you would expect it to be. The little kids, I think about 1st grade to 3rd grade, have this area called Kishwauketoe, which is a little set back from everything and is in the woods. The little kids cabins are kind of "rustic" and they have to walk out of their cabin to get to the bathhouse and showers. The older kids, 4th grade to 8th grade, have their cabins all around the camp. Some of the cabins have air conditioning, and they are all nice inside. All of the cabins have bunk-beds, in case you were wondering, and you are allowed to choose from top or bottom. Let me go to the food. It's amazing, we get 3 meals a day, and for dessert after dinner, they have these amazing fruit popsicles. There is no "bug juice". The food isn't disgusting, and there is no "mystery meat". It's really good food, just saying. They also have a little snack shop you can buy food and candy from during free time. Geneva Lake is what makes this camp so good. The water is one of the clearest lakes in Wisconsin. They have water-trampolines, banana boats, and double tubing. They make you take a swim test on the first day, (the camp is only a week) to see if you can swim in the deep end or just the shallow end.

They would not allow my daughter to call me even after she was injured on a tubing ride. The…read moreaccommodations are not focused on safety of the children. Parents are not allowed to talk to their children on the phone or in person. I would not recommend this camp. It is very scary and they do not properly vet the camp counselors, nor cabin leaders.

I've been here twice as a staff member for a week-long camp through my church: once as a counselor…read moreand once as an activity coordinator. We stayed in the cabins, ate in one of the cafeterias, and spent most of our time by the beach, in the wood shop, in the chapel (way too cold -- someone turn that air-conditioning down please!), and in the game room pavilion. The cabins were as clean as cabins could be with some bugs (it's summer camp, what do you expect?). One bathroom wasn't enough for a room of ten girls, though! The wood shop was cool, and the girls enjoyed hanging out on the beach nearby, jumping in the water or fishing from the pier. The game room pavilion had chairs and some games to play, but it wasn't as appealing as playing in the park, which was in the middle of everything. The cafeteria/kitchen staff was also very accommodating of my request for vegetarian food. The first year, I was too nervous about asking for special food since it was free, so I just dealt with it and ate meat for a week. The second year, there were more vegetarians among the camp volunteers, so we felt more comfortable asking for vegetarian food. They did a great job remembering us and offering alternative foods. The camp and conference center also has a lagoon, paddle boats, canoeing, a paintball arena, sand volleyball, a gym, some high-ropes course thing, and different paths through the woods for team-building or hiking. Great options and great, friendly staff. There's also a lot of other lodging options and other spots to dine, but our kids didn't spend their time there. I guess three camps could occur at the same time. It's just a summer camp spot, but it's a great spot. I'm looking forward to next year!
