Cherokee Outdoor YMCA on Lake Allatoona - Barn staff interacts with all children. I bet many of those children have never seen a horse up close before.

Best kept secret in Woodstock! Summer camp allows for a choice of over 25 different camps…read more(horseback, science, craft, woodworking, cake baking, fishing, water sports, princess, jedi, etc) and 300+ acres for children to roam & explore with their group. My daughter loves it & has for years. Love the horseback program. Truly greatest place to spend the summer. Every counselor was my daughters favorite & still impact her life. Great for children 4-15 & at 16 can get a job. Met several counselors who were former campers. Nice to know they place such value on this program. Great to know their is a camp with so much to offer with huge legacy of YMCA. They also have a soccer program & other sports programs that many say is great just did not interest my daughter.

The location is great, however this review pertains to their youth soccer program. My 8 year old…read moreson just finished his 2nd soccer season with them. The first was great. The coach was good with the kids, and everything seemed to run as smoothly as it could. Unfortunately, this second season has left me greatly disappointed. I wasn't as happy with it in general as I was last year, but that is fine. I was still planning on signing him up again next season. Recent events have made me change my mind though. At the end of October, my son took a direct hit from a soccerball to the face during practice. After walking it off, he seemed okay and continued on with the practice. The next day, we get a call from the school nurse. She tells us that he has a headache and he is disoriented. We pick him up from school and take him to the doctor, where we discover that he has a concussion. The doctor says that he needs to refrain from soccer until the follow up visit the next week. I don't hold COY responsible for any of this. Things like this happen in sports all the time. We knew that when we signed our son up. We emailed the coach to let him know about our son received a concussion at practice and of the doctors orders. We told him that we would not be at practice that Friday or the following Monday, nor the game that Saturday. We did not receive a response. This bothered me, but I let it slide. I still received emails from the coach addressed to the team regarding practices and games, but nothing about my son. We took our son to the follow up visit a week later, and the doctor said that he was better, but still recovering and that he would have to sit out the rest of the season. Again, I emailed the coach to update him on the situation. This time I asked him to let us know how he would like us to finish out the season. Again, I did not receive a response. The last game of the season was last weekend. We still haven't heard from any of the coaches. There were three of them, and none of them could be bothered to make a phone call or send an email. Earlier this week, we sent an email to the director of the youth soccer program. We still have not received a response. COY is not responsible for my son getting injured, but I am holding them fully responsible for the lack of communication of their staff. I suppose that the COY youth soccer program is decent enough, just don't expect them to care if your child gets injured on their property while participating in their program. If that matters to you, you might want to find something else for your child to do.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with ClubSciKidz at the St. James location in Alpharetta!…read moreOur children attended the Sea Adventures and Little Robot Engineer camps, and every afternoon they came out smiling from ear to ear. They couldn't wait to tell us about everything they had learned and created, which made for some fantastic dinner table conversations all week long. A special thank you to Ms. Simmy and Ms. Miles, who were incredible with the kids. Their enthusiasm, kindness, and ability to make learning so much fun truly stood out. It's clear they care deeply about creating a positive and engaging environment. Thank you to the entire ClubSciKidz team for providing such an exceptional camp experience. We couldn't have asked for a better week and will definitely be back for future camps! Note: they have multiple locations around Atlanta making it convenient for families to find a camp near them. Definitely check them out!

We were very disappointed with our experience at Club SciKidz Mini Medical School camp and would…read morenot recommend it. One of the main reasons we chose this camp was because it was advertised as a hands-on STEM experience with science demonstrations and activities throughout the day. Instead, my child came home telling us they watched multiple shows, including Danny Go, Wild Kratts, and The Magic School Bus. After I contacted the owner, he acknowledged that campers "should not be watching videos" and said the counselors had been reminded. Despite that assurance, the videos continued throughout the rest of the week. I also had significant concerns about supervision. The environment often felt chaotic and understaffed. At drop-off, I observed approximately 60 children gathered in one room with only two counselors visible. I asked the owner several specific questions about camper-to-staff ratios and the number of counselors assigned to my child's group, but those questions were never answered. There were other things that surprised us as well. The children ate lunch sitting on the floor, and from what I observed, they were not directed to wash their hands before eating. The camp also handed out Jolly Ranchers and several other sugary snacks during the week. Hard candy seemed like an odd choice for a camp serving young children, and the amount of candy and sugary treats was unexpected. Finally, this is one of the more expensive camps we've enrolled our child in, so we expected a higher level of organization, supervision, and programming. Unfortunately, the experience simply didn't justify the premium price. Overall, the experience did not match the expectations set by the camp's marketing materials or sample daily schedule. If you're looking for a well-organized, hands-on STEM camp with strong supervision and minimal screen time, I would look elsewhere.
