    The Our Kids review of Camp Muskoka

    our take

    Fun is a priority at Camp Muskoka, though values are as well. Overnight, coed sessions in the heart of cottage country as well as the Canadian shield, the programming is active and varied.  A low camper to staff ratio is a draw, as is the breadth of programming. Campers choose daily from a wide array of activities, from the strikingly modern (flyboarding, paintball) to the very core of the camp tradition, including guitar, art, and camp craft. Camp-wide events are a chance to get loud, though the cabin groups and specialty activities allow campers a chance to exercise their quieter sides. The younger campers stay in a lodge, which is unique in the world of camping, designed to offer a sense of community. The older campers stay in cottages that sparkle with all the mod cons located within them. In all of that, the quality of the offering is what rightly catches parents’ and campers’ attention alike. From registration, to staffing, to food service, the camp is expertly and efficiently run.

    Caring staff

    I wanted to let you know what an amazing time both of my kids (8 and 14 years old) had at Camp Muskoka. I have already signed them both up for next year. The camp was fabulous, the programs were great, but the best part of the Camp from both of my kids - was the staff. They were both so fortunate to have the kindest, most fun and caring people, and they knew it. They cherished the time with their counsellors, they really got to know each other and they knew what each child needed to feel comfortable. The staff were exceptional, especially with the younger children. It was a first time away from home and everyone there made them feel safe and comfortable. ... Show More

    Thank You!

    She loved every minute of it. Between watching the drop off and hearing Ava’s stories, my younger daughter is wanting to go next year, in fact she asked me to see if there was availability for a week this year.

    For the seventh year in a row my daughter said she had “the best time ever!” Definitely a reflection of the calibre of your camp and staff. All the best with the rest of the summer!


    Kate M, Sydney, Australia, Parent

    Outstanding Experience!

    This was an outstanding experience for an Aussie kid! We don't have the summer camp culture and it was something really special to be a part of. The standards of the facilities at Camp Muskoka were extremely high! She loved the aerial park experience. And the counselors were the BEST! Our daughter loved their company over the week. Thank you for the Muskoka Experience ... Show More

    Stories

    • From Our Campers

      "I love Camp Muskoka because it is has beautiful atmosphere, tons of tall healthy green trees and a beautiful dark blue lake to swim in. The people are kind, like the staff members and the campers. Camp Muskoka is a great experience. Kayaking and canoeing are only two of the activities I tried for the first time and loved! Another part of the camp that I liked was the huge bright bomb fire at night, the stories of how the camp was founded were great, and the songs were fun to sing along to. The food at Camp Muskoka is great! I like lunch time because afterwards we get to have tuck time and buy all sorts of candy!" - Samantha, Camper

      "Camp Muskoka is the best place ever. It is where I have learned Leadership and Friendship, all in one. I met the coolest people; they are very energetic and lively. The staff are kind and very comforting. The activities are so amazing that I do not know where to start. Swimming is so exciting with "The Iceberg" and the water trampoline, that I find it so hard to leave. My favourite all time activity, is the karaoke dance party! Dancing with all your friends, and to make it even more exciting, they mix in some karaoke. The food at Camp Muskoka is amazing. Every day I would look forward to another tasty meal. My favourites would have to be the pizza and the fresh omelettes. When my parents come to pick me up I am very happy to see them after being away from home for so long, (but it actually goes by very fast) I think in the back of my head it is so sad that I have to leave. Camp Muskoka is very family friendly. At the Family BBQ they have different activities for the parents. The most exciting part of the BBQ was when my Dad and I won three legged race! When we were almost at the finish line we were in second place, but we picked up the pace and won. This year I can't wait to get back!" - Grace, Camper
       

    • From Our Parents

      "It goes without saying that the son we picked up as not the one we left behind a week before at Camp Muskoka. He was full of confidence and somewhat changes. Over the coming months, we noticed more and more little positive changes. We attribute these 100% to his experience at Camp Muskoka, that without a doubt changed our son. I cannot emphasize this enough to you. He is more open to new experiences and his confidence that wasn't present 2 years ago. Once he found Camp Muskoka, he found himself and found the boy we always thought was inside. We look forward to his experience at Camp Muskoka because each year is a stepping stone in his development. Thank you Camp Muskoka from the bottom of my heart!" - Lisa, Parent

      "My son went to Camp Muskoka last summer for a week, it was his first overnight camp so I was a little nervous. The staff made me feel very comfortable when we dropped him off. At the end of the week when I went to pick him up he wasn't even packed, he looked up at me and said "is it Saturday already??" He had so much fun that he did not want to come home. He loved everything about Camp Muskoka, the food, the activities, the staff and the friends he made. This year we are sending him for 2 weeks and he can't wait!" Pat, Parent

       

       

    • The Camp Muskoka Experience

      A Day At a Glance At Camp Muskoka, we believe that the magic of the camp experience starts with the sharing of a community; helping campers develop new skills while building self-esteem and developing leadership abilities; all while exploring the wonders of nature. A truly incredible summer vacation! Another important aspect of the Camp Muskoka experience is encouraging new friendships, which start from the moment our campers arrive. Every camper is placed into their cabin group and teamed up with new friends. Together these cabin mates will share the Camp Muskoka experience.
