To begin: big applause for the chefs who made a ratatouille that was very enjoyable, and a lentil…read moresoup for which I would love to get the recipe! Terrific meal service! The camp has many housing offerings, and locations. Nice. This is camping and not at all glamping. No wi-fi nor mobile service for most cell phones. One can really get away from it all! I went to the Sierra Club Retreat, and we had many choices of lectures, craft offerings and animal observation opportunities. There was also an astronomer on site with large equipment to view the heavens both morning and evening. There is addition boating and tubing on Stoney Lake and River. The dorm rooms were clean, the shared facilities were also clean. The management pays attention to many cleanliness and activity details. Bravo!

They have lots of activities for the kids, there is never a dull moment. They can do everything from horseback riding, to high ropes and hiking, while teaching values. The perfect opportunity for your kids to "unplug" from video games and tv! I highly recommend!

My child spent his first session here in 2026. The application, reservation, audition system were…read morevery straightforward. Like others mentioned, apply for a scholarship, it seems most campers are awarded at least a couple hundred dollars. Drop-off was a little chaotic and most families don't follow the schedule. Just aim for as close to noon as possible. My child enjoyed himself and only complained about the following: the showers were cold and someone left a poop on the floor. The food was mid, but most cafeteria food is. We didn't email him during the session. It costs $10 per and your child is probably better off enjoying some independence. If there us an emergency, they give you a phone # you can call. The pros - he learned a lot in his major and minor, which is the reason he was there. He had fun otherwise and learned to juggle! He really liked his cabin mates, too. Worth the money? Probably. I just wish they invested in some hot water tanks for the showers.

According to my daughter, Blue Lake has been the single best summer camp experience she has ever…read morehad. First, they provide an amazing camping experience with activities and warm, empathic counselors who take excellent care of the campers. Second, there is a lot of dedicated time in sectionals to hone their musical skills before the big performance on the final day. But third and most important of all, the friendships that are created with musicians from across not only the state and region, but even from around the world. To have 12 days of dedicated camping free from electronic screens to truly be a kid and find the joy in creating music with others. While I never had the joy of camping here, I see it on her face every year and am so unbelievably delighted to bring her back. I miss her dearly, but am so impressed with the musical and personal growth she shows after each year. If you aren't yet familiar with this magical place - I highly recommend checking it out.

I cannot say enough good things about Canterbury Creek Farm School. Our family is still new-ish to…read moreGrand Rapids -- we moved here two years ago from Chicago -- and Farm School quickly became like a second family to our 3.5yo son. Born a COVID baby, he has always loved to play independently, but struggled in group situations. The staff and owners are incredibly compassionate and caring -- encouraging our son to play with others, but at his own pace. He has completely come out of his shell over this school year. It has been a joy to see the daily updates on the Brightwheel app (which teachers update during the school day), so that even when I am at work, I can relish in the absolute joy of a time our son is having at school. Time spent outdoors and with the animals is not only great for our high energy boy to blow off steam, but teaches so many life skills (outside of a classroom) that are so necessary to early childhood development. Their approach to early childhood education is incredible -- keeps all the content fun for kids, but with incredible impact. To compare his self-portrait and handwritten name from the beginning to the end of the year is insane! His end of year book brought me to tears -- and made me feel even more blessed to be a part of the Canterbury Creek family. In fact, this morning on our way to drop off, he told me he was so sad that school was over and that he would miss it over the summer. Good thing we will be back for Summer Camp and next school year. I cannot wait to sign up my 2.5yo daughter next!

Its so cool that the kids get a full education here not just for…read morethemselves but for the animals too, it' so important at an early age to make sure kids have respect for all lives and they do with their interaction, feeding and caring for the animals here. Totally unique school, wonderful education, loving and caring instructors and overall a great, first class school all the way around. Our 4 year old daugher was at preschool there and will go again for young fives next year. We will do two summer camps with her and 6 year old sister.

She has come home with so many positive memories! The counselors are excellent role models and are great at spreading fellowship. I think the price is well worth an entire week of camp. The campers are kept very busy with a wide variety of activities. They even get to pick special interest groups. The lake and grounds are very well-kept. My daughter loved the challenge coarse and zip line! The cabins are very homey and have their own bathroom and showers. My daughter is a picky eater and she never went hungry. A great camp!

Being vegetarian I was scared there wouldn't be any options but they offered me veggie meats and what not. The staff is kind and friendly and they always have a great band and speaker for retreats. I'd highly recommend going here! They have inside and outside activities, from my knowledge they have re-ball, horse back riding, tubing, snow tubing, a zip line, and gym activities. They also have a room with air hockey, carpet ball, foosball, and a ping pong table. They also have a rock climbing wall, and with this stuff you'll never be bored!

When you go into the meadowlands/foxglove cabins there's so carpet or wood floor it's only concrete. And the bunk beds felt kind of like prison beds. And a few of their food items there were a bit questionable..though on the second day there it was alit more packed. The worship time was amazing everyone had lots of fun and there was plenty of space. I do wish everything wasn't as expensive..but it's camp so. Also I was a little bit hoping for a bathroom in our cabin but we had to share one and it didn't smell or look like it had been cleaned which is why we used the one in the sanctuary instead it's much nicer. The game room and the gym were really nice and the other places were to. It was pretty much really nice except for the bathroom near the cabins and the foxglove cabin.But I think I would go again in the summer maybe where there's more to do!
