Have been going for 10 years. I can honestly say it feels like home there. Send your kids here, they will learn and grow and it will shape them into the people they are supposed to be. I have spent a total of 53 weeks here and every second of it was special.

Great camp with great people! My son has been going for three years and I ve been a basketball counselor for three years as well. Tons of activities and the people of ILC are genuine, kind hearted, and fun! In between the beautiful mountains of upstate PA and underneath the Milky Way, it s very peaceful and scenic. #ILC for life!

Every summer, I'm blessed to have the opportunity to go back. This camp has done so much for me. For two weeks each year I get to go home to my favorite place with my best friends. I wouldn't trade camp for the world.

My kids of been going to Independent Lake Camp for six years now.

This is a well run, multi week, overnight camp. The staff and facilities are top notch, and that s what you would expect for the price you pay. It is pricey, no doubt about that! But I have to say it really is worth it. The options the kid have in selecting events during their visit is outstanding.

Facilities range from horseback riding, to circus work, to digital arts, to skateboarding, and of course swimming. Lots of swimming.

Attended for Epic Nerd Camp where we were able to start learning about trapeze, Spanish web, tightrope walking, and other super enjoyable activities. It was chilly when we were there so maybe next time we'll get to waterski. Look forward to it.
