NOT SAFE! I do not recommend sending your children to camp here. It doesn't even deserve one star. My nephew went to camp here this past summer and was in a cabin group of 14!! with only 1 counselor! He is a middle school boy, those kind of ratios are unacceptable and unsafe especially when doing high adventure activities. He told me that there were multiple injuries in his group because the counselors didn't pay attention. He also felt like the camp director Craig? made fun of him and bullied other campers and staff. He also complained that he didn't get enough food to eat and when he did get food it was cold. I could go on and on with the complaints he came home with. Don't waste your money sending your child to camp here.

I've been coming to Lutherock for years on a quilting retreat and been sending my grandchild to camp. This summer she came back saying she didn't want to go back. She used to say she wanted to be a counselor here. The changes being made in this organization are disappointing to see and hear about. This summer there was no chaplain, no Bible study time, and over all not the same love and care as in previous summers. I sent my granddaughter to this camp because it is a faith camp, but it seems that component was missing in a big way this summer. I love my time at the Crow's Nest and think Jada is wonderful, but I will not be sending my grandchildren to camp here anymore.

I ve been bringing church youth to camp here for about a dozen years now, to include my own boys. The only thing that s ever been a disappointment is when it s time to leave. The kids absolutely love this place & look forward to coming back each summer. The programs are diverse & engaging, the setting is breathtakingly beautiful & the cool mountain air here above 4000 feet is a nice reprieve during the hot summer. The staff has always been friendly, accommodating & welcoming. You won t find kids clinging to screens or social media here either. A rare place where kids can still be kids, in a true, old fashion, camp environment. Lots of singing, playing & fellowship. Over the years our church youth has enjoyed ski retreats, zip lining, caving, white water rafting, backpacking, rock climbing, ropes courses, crafts, campfires & outdoor games here at Lutherock. The food has always been great & there are options galore, from gluten-free, to vegetarian & everything in between. I ve never seen a kid leave camp hungry. I d highly recommend sending any kid to camp here or just renting a cabin or getting a room at their lodge as a weekend get away. I truly believe the memories our church youth have of camp will stay with them forever.
