I had a finger nail in my hamburger so I left after the first day. I tried to pack my dog in my trunk but they sent him home. My little sister pooped her pants and they told her to eat it cause they thought it was chocolate. So yeah, no.
This is by far one of the best experiences you can give a child. You can actually see the growth in a child's confidence, maturity and learning at the end of each summer. We have sent our two grandchildren for several years and it's worth every cent!! The staff led by Elizabeth is professional, trustworthy and experienced. Truly a wonderful place!! The Jackson's. Ardmore, Pa.
Its an overnight YMCA camp that has a very big pool, cabins, and a beach where you can go tubing and motorboat riding
I hate this camp so much but my parents force me to go. All my friends secretly hate it but the counselors force us to say we like it. It is only for stuck up brats and everyone is mean and the place is disgusting. The counselors are super mean. When we visited Echo Hill Camp for the regatta I found it to be much more fun and the people were nicer. I wish I could go to Echo Hill Camp! Go check that camp out so you don't get stuck at this dump.
always AMAZING and super friendly staff and campers!
I had so much fun here and would love to be able to come again. Highly recommend
My son 13 years old, attended Camp Tockwogh water skiing for the first time this year, he was apprehensive to do so but had the time of his life. We have already committed to going back next summer. Exceptional staff!
Daughter has attended summer camp here for five years in a row and absolutely loves it. Not sure if this place is open to the public during the year but during the summer while camp is active, it has very restricted access for the childrens security.
The YMCA associated with Camp T. has staff so dedicated to the temporary residents of the similar village that the hardest part of camp is leaving. They are caring, compassionate, hard-working, 'johnnie-on-the-spot,' and simply just a wonderful crew. They provide our acute needs and the food is really good. We are always safe with Hershey kisses, nuts, cheese, and salad bar.
I went there as a 12 year old and kept going till 15. Some great memories, I also went for a camp out with my boy scout troop several times. I am now 55 years old and it warms my heart to see it still in operation. I hope you are still operating when my grandson is old enough to go. LOVE this place and the experience !
This is one of the best run and well-managed Summer Camps on the East Coast
it is the best camp ever for sailing and other fun activities
I will never be able to thank Camp Tockwogh enough for the best summers of my life!
I was a camper for 5 consecutive summers, and then apart of their Leader in Training and Counselor in Training programs for the next two summers.
I made friends from around the world, learned how to sail and waterskii, and shaped who I am as an independent and spirited individual.
Send your kids there, and I promise you won t regret it!
I spent several of my childhood summers here and still carry the fondest memories. Can t wait to send my children here as well one day!
Y all get to have light on and a cabin. Echo Hill you go there to be away from electronics not be closer to like this camp Echo Hill for life y all camp is terrible and horrible.
GO HERE YOU WILL LITERALLY BECOME THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF EVER AND WILL MAKE THE MOST OUT OF YOUR SUMMER AND MAKE THE BEST MEMORIES YOU'VE EVER HAD.This will take over your life. Best experience I've ever had by far. You meet tons of amazing people and have the best time. I've only been going for two years so far and went from session 1(1 week) to session 2(2 weeks) to this year going for the entire month of July and i couldn't be anymore happier. ps follow @squadwogh bye
A wonderful place for young people to learn and grown in an old-fashioned outdoor camp setting that's good value for money. Exceptional staff and lovely waterfront right on the Bay, along with a giant old-school canvas waterslide. We have such faith in the place that we've sent our children to the 3-day mini camp starting from the summer after kindergarten. They couldn't have had a nicer time each year they attended. The long-running camp is quite rustic, perfect if you're looking for a no frills, easygoing camp experience for 21st century kids. Children can be themselves in a safe setting at this large and scenic old camp.
It was beautiful connecting with nature and away from the big city
Fantastic place to work for a summer, great activities, people and facilities.
The best summer camp around! My daughter loves it. Fantastic staff!
My kids love attending Camp Tockwogh. The camp has great activities and the kids really enjoy themselves. The counselors are very friendly and engaged with the campers 24/7.
You are currently looking at the reviews of the best place on earth!!!!! I live in Portland, Oregon and every summer I fly to Maryland to join the camp experience. My favorite thing there is water skiing and sailing.
There are mostly international counselors. For example, my first year I had a counselor from Scotland and a counselor from Hungary. I am only eleven years old and this is already my favorite place on earth! My mom, who is now forty two, went to this camp. You can go to this camp as long as you are between eight and fifteen! Instead of your last year there you can be an LIT (leader in training). The year after that you can be a CIT. And after that you can be a counselor for a few years! This really is the best place on earth!!!!
The BEST camp ever, my friends and I made the best experiences of our lives! And echo hill... does not know how to have fun. Don t go there tents for cabins lol!
One of my favorite places, for nearly 30 years. My kids and I love Tockwogh.
Had an amazing time as a child only if I knew these peoples livestyles that being displayed were my ancestors
Great place for families meeting other people, being active. It's become our annual end of summer weekend as a family. We love it & all ready planning for next year.
Yuck! Words cannot describe my child's experience. He came home covered in big bites. Uggggggh, gotta buy more cortisone! He didn't even learn how to sail, but he learned about sex and curse words. Super disappointed, should've put these two weeks in the college fund.
Grew up going to this camp and now send my kids here! Amazing place!
Loved this camp for my kids! Plenty of activities, safe environment, disconnect from their phones, & learning self-reliance. I d recommend this camp to any parent & child.
My daughter has been attending camp tockwogh for a long time now, and she absolutely loves it. There is sailing, water skiing, guitar, crafts, sports, and more. I highly recommend this camp to any parent who's child is looking for a great sleep away experience. And for any child who gets homesick, the counselors deal with it very well and your child will be having a blast in no time.
I went here as a camper. It was BEYOND AMAZING. They are always there for you no madder what. There are plenty of activities to do and anyone who goes here will have a BLAST
I love it here so much and I stuck with my friends I met here we talk everyday and I get way too excited to come back every year!!! Without this camp I would be sitting in front of the TV screen everyday... Camp Tockwogh helped me become the person I am today!
I attended this camp the summer after 4th grade. It was the worst experience. During the first couple days I came down with strep throat and felt very homesick, yet they would not allow me to call home. They told me that they had talked to my parents and that my parents had said that I needed to stay there. The remainder of my camp experience was filled with tears. I literally cried myself to sleep every night and they did absoulity nothing about it. After I came home my parents assured me the conslers never told them that I had strep throat and wanted to go home. As an 11 year old I was scared by this experience. I no joke cried for months after it and was unable to have sleepovers at friend's houses anymore. I do not recommend this camp to anyone with concerns of homesickness, because they do an awful job of dealing with it.
This is a place to go when you had a rough year and the campers and consolers and they will understand. The people here are so loving, kind, caring, and non-judgmental.
This summer i had one of the best times of my life. I came there with a couple of friends and when i left i mad a brotherhood with my cabin and my counslers. I also mad Otherfriends that were not in my cabin and loved how much freedom we haved. I Could speak about this all day but im in school and have to go. One last thing i have to sya is the echo hill sucks and tockwough is the beast camp ever
I remember so many great things about this place I'm now 17 years old and still think about roasting up some marshmallows and singing campfire songs with my dad at camp tockwogh it was such a blast and I was only 5-7 years old when I went there. So much fun I'd recommend this camp for anyone and for all ages no limits.
