Being a division director was an amazing experience! I have worked at a few camps over the years and I love the experiences and people I meet. Camp Lohikan was another amazing experience!

My child had a wonderful time at this camp and will return next year. If you want your kids to have the traditional camp experience (lake activities, talent shows, singing, etc.), this place is great. Children are asked to care for each other, take age-appropriate responsibility, and enjoy sports, c...

Beautiful countryside setting, well maintained property, huge amount of activities, and the best staff.....we scored a home run by sending our only child here three years ago. He's come home from camp learning new things (not just activities) but life skills and confidence in himself`. He's made so...

Both of my children, a 13-year old girl, and an 11-year old boy, have gone to Camp Lohikan for two summers in a row, and I've already signed them up for 2016. They LOVE it. It's a very impressive camp. It's not one of those really fancy camps, where the kids have expensive clothes and the girls a...

I tell everyone that they need to be a sleep-away camp counselor at least once in their life. At Lohikan, you get one of the largest groups of staff members from diverse geographic areas and with a wide range of interests. The relationships built with fellow staff members are ones that will last a l...

My daughter spent the last 5yrs at another camp and only gave Lohikan a try because her camp closed due to the Covid pandemic. I had heard about Lohikan from a friend and, after investigating their Covid summer plans, decided that it felt like a safe option to try. They were taking extensive precaut...

It takes a lot of people skills to work here. The learn a lot from the kids, and the kids learn a lot from you. There are times when you might think, "Why am I working here? I wanna go home! This place is insane!" but that's all really part of the experience. As soon as you learn to take a step back...

Camp Lohikan is a great camp for several reasons. I will highlight one of the first things that came to mind. Many summer camps require a child do to certain activities that they may not even be interested in doing. Because of Camp Lohikan's "elective" system, campers are able to create their own ...

The senior staff is disgraceful and should learn how to treat children. The way I was treated was way to harsh and no one should have to deal with anything that I dealt with.
