Kingsley Pines Camp Reviews

33 years ago, I was the youngest kid in the camp and had a lot of fun shooting bows & arrows along with all the other activities they provided.

I had my wedding at Kingsley pines in September of 2017. I couldn't have been happier about the weekend and the whole experience. I lived the venue from the first day I saw it because it was everything I wanted in a venue and was exactly what my husband and I were looking for. We were thrilled to find it and even more thrilled during the 2 years of planning that led to the wedding weekend. I am the kind of person that has a lot of questions and likes to see all angles of a situation so as you can imagine with a venue like this I had a lot of questions and ideas through the planning process. Drew was absolutely amazing in helping me with questions and helping me with anything I needed. He had multiple walk through with me and was very accommodating to my busy schedule. He even took the time to help me set up tables and look at different arrangements for seating out his busy schedule and he didn't have to do that but wanted to ensure I was happy and at ease before the big day. Drew gave us a lot of ideas and catering and other options for food and beverages. He truly wanted to make sure that I was happy and that it was everything I wanted. He was very accommodating and very helpful through every step of the way. The wedding venue is gorgeous and there are so many ways you can go about doing it your way. There is a lot of leeway and the wonderful option of BYOB. The venue is perfect if you are looking for something casual or elegant, fun , adventurous and also classy. There are many options of activities and the whole weekend access of the venue which allows for so many options of things to plan and do and gives you time to do what you want. I loved that there was so much included in the venue and I didn't have to rent a tent or worry about facilities and tables and chairs. I had the best day of my life at Kingsley pines which was partly due to the venue but also a lot to do with Drew and his staff.

Just amazing, go and you not regret it. Everyone has a blast there and makes friends for a lifetime.

Kingsley Pines in our house is synonymous with Pure Joy. Our daughter has gone for 6 years and would continue going if she hadn t aged out! Would recommend this camp to everyone!!

I ve going for awhile and it s always been a great time! Full of laughs and smiles, and when it ends, tears. I would recommend it to anyone who wants an awesome experience and meet new people from all over the world.

I started going when I was 1 at family camp now I am 12 and go to kids camp it is the most amazing place ever I love it so much so many fun activities u meet great friends and have great counselers

I just went for my 4th year and every year no matter is they did the same schedule every year I would go as it is my home away from home, not only that but people from all around the world come and I can learn about their cultures and it really is just my very favorite place!

Wow! This was my first year going, and I totally loved it. This is my last year as a camper unfortunately, but this is a place that I will always remember, and a place that every kid should have a chance to experience.

Kingsley Pines was a very fun way to spend my summer

In a minute... but not now, I'll describe to you the reason its a crime to not send your kids here.

Was a camper there from the summers 2009-2015 with my younger brother and sister, doing 2 sessions each time (5 weeks, I'm not sure how they structure it now). I can without a doubt say that this was easily one of the highlights of my Childhood. The staff of the Camp like Lead Director Alan and the Boys+Girls side heads (Jeff was mine in my day, again not sure now) are incredibly professional and qualified, as they showed actual care about my development as a man the six years I was there. The councilors are world class, supporting dozens of languages and an incredible ability to control the kids, and yet let them feel like they are experiencing risk without the savior of a parent right behind them.

The activities and days are some of the most fun I had in my time at KP. Basically, Half the days are "activity" days where the kids sign up weekly for things like kayaking, wakeboarding, football or stained glass (Honestly any sport or art, they add more every year and it keeps getting crazier). From 8AM-5/6PM its all day activities and fun, without feeling like a grind or boring. The other half are "Special Days", where the staff creates themed days and make games around that theme, (ex. Jurassic Park day, playing games like herbivores v omnivores v carnivores) *Best game by the way, gotta play it to know*
This camp helped me develop lifelong communication and social skills, opening up more doors than I could ever believe now that I am in University. The relationships fostered and created at the camp turn lifelong, with my favourite councilor Eric Hooke still keeping in contact with me from time to time and yearly reunions to trash-talk for the superbowl:) These people really do care.

The best way I can put it is that Kingsley Pines is a special place, a place I plan to send my children.
I hope you send your kids here as-well, they will thank you in ten years.

This is a fantastic camp. This is very important, what they are doing there. Parents report visible changes and improvements in kids and teens.

KP is the best! This summer will be my 5th time going there. There is such a friendly environment which makes me feel at home.

My 11 year old son attended Kingsley Pines this summer. He had a fantastic experience. His counselors were excellent. My son learn waterskiing, fencing and yoga. He loved it so much that I already enrolled him for next year. The staff is very professional and focused on the kids having a great time.
