It is the most positive experience I participate in and makes my year!

Michael S., Astoria, NY

The openness of everyone’s attitudes and acceptance was intoxicating.

Brandon W., New Orleans, LA

I just love Camp. It gives me the opportunity to totally & literally unplug. No cell phone, no computer… total vacation time for me.

Charles L., Colrain, MA

…Everyone made me feel very welcome, from Staff to Campers.

Adam H., Lafayette, LA

Loved it!

Todd B., Greensboro, NC

This place changed my life. I am a better person because of Camp.

Geoff L., Los Angeles, CA

I’ve been to festivals and conventions, and even camp as a kid, and been overwhelmed by the number of people, and felt lost in the shuffle. That didn’t happen here! Returning Campers and Staff, as well as other first-years, were very friendly. I never felt alone or isolated.

Nicole Y., Ann Arbor, MI

The diversity within our community is astounding, and I feel that everyone was welcome…and especially appreciate that the whole age spectrum of our community was included, from the energetic (sometimes scared) kids to our esteemed elders.

Lori M., Merriam, KS

Camp really is the “Best Time Ever!” Sounds corny, but it’s true.

Wendy H., Raleigh, NC

I learned so much and created some beautiful things in my jewelry and pottery classes. We are very fortunate to have such amazing teachers in all of the activities at Camp.

Barry R., New York, NY

I’ve traveled a lot, and I’ve never found another place as warm and welcoming as ‘Camp’ Camp; not even close!

David P., Endicott, NY

I love the Camp experience and always feel rejuvenated after attending.

Sherron W., Edison, NJ

It is the most fun I have all year. And I love the people.

Michelle R., Brighton, MA

I’ve never had as much fun anywhere as I do at Camp.

Linda R., Manchester, NH

It’s like I’ve been recharged. …It is the one place where I can be my truest self. You can’t put a price on that.

Michael G., Brooklyn, NY

Cheers to all who put in such effort to make a safe, wonderful, and fun environment. Flawlessly executed direction and organization. …Extremely well done.

Heather L., Brookline, NH

I met some really amazing and very special people that I otherwise would have never crossed paths with. My heart doubled in size in just one week.

Gina Y., Houston, TX

…one of the most supportive and LGBT-friendly environments I have ever experienced.

Warren H., New York, NY

The food was outstandingly amazing! …I loved that there were so many vegan options.

IlanaRei G., Malden, MA

My friends never stop talking about it, and now I know why!

Jason S., Brooklyn, NY

All the important things, the take-aways, I got from summer camp as a child remain still as an adult. I get a chance to make new friends, try new things, and rekindle my spirit.

Mary Beth K., Columbia, SC

I keep returning for the community and sense of peace, love, and all around decency.

Lyndsey F., Santa Rosa, CA

Totally fabulous. …The spirit of Camp is so joyful and fun and silly and accepting all at once.

Daphne B., Hamden, CT

It’s affordable and awesome!

Samantha A., Norfolk, VA

The food was fantastic throughout the week, and there’s always lots of fun things to do all day long.

Tony J., Tampa, FL

I’ve always felt welcome and included at Camp, perhaps more there than in many other places at home.

Jen V., Cincinnati, OH

I love this place!

Stephanie V., Exeter, NH

I laughed more in one week than I did all year.

Richard H., Montreal, QC

With all the talk about “community,” I’ve never experienced a feeling of gay community anywhere but at ‘Camp’ Camp. That alone is enough of a draw for me.

Bill S., Norristown, PA

There is no place on earth like ‘Camp’ Camp, and I feel renewed and light-hearted there in ways I don’t feel at home or in any other community.

Debbie D., Holden, ME

‘Camp’ Camp is a safe, embracing, loving, exciting, entertaining, outgoing, respectful, joyful, honest space. I cannot pass that up.

Christina K., Lawndale, CA

Thanks for continuing to make ‘Camp’ Camp a place for us to relax, unwind and be ourselves!!

Scott T., Chicago, IL

I’m not a terribly social person and large groups can make me uncomfortable. That being said, I never felt safer in a group of people so quickly before.

Shelley D., Nashville, TN

All the evening activities were outstanding. So much fun!

Glynn G., Lowell, MA

It’s a week I wait for every year.

Michael L., Tucson, AZ

Everything was amazing!!!

Gary E., Ogdensburg, NY

I was most surprised at how welcoming, caring, and lovely each and every Camper and Staff member was. …Thank you for continuing to offer this wonderful environment after all these years.

Sage W., New Orleans, LA

Everyone was so friendly when we first arrived. I was hooked! …’Camp’ Camp feels like home.

Lisa M., Wallingford, CT

You have built a wonderful community. …I came away very impressed.

Estelle D., Cambridge, MA

Thank you all for the gift of a wonderful week. I appreciate your patience, care, generosity, understanding, attention to detail, hard work, creativity, openness, effort, and LOVE!

Thom H., Salem, MA

I love the grounds; they are so beautiful and serene. It made it easy to do nothing and just enjoy the nature sounds.

Linda B., Cincinnati, OH
