I love this camp 🏕, very clean, big and warm for 70 people. Food was good and the view is beautiful. Even it was cold but we had enough hot water 🚿 for shower. Extra with hot water , tea bags and coffees. We had such a wonderful retreat camp with our team.

My granddaughter had her first time at camp this year, peewee camp. She has so much fun she kept asking when she was going to be able to go back and see her friends. Definitely will be making this a summer tradition. Wonderful staff, amazing grounds.. wish I was a kid again so I could go!!

Well, ladies & gentlemen, my review is going to be about yesteryear. I went to summer camp in the 1970’s. I think I was 9 the first time & 12 the last time. Back then the cabins were ‘A’ frame cabins. ‘The Moonlight Hike’ on Friday was my personal favorite! Swimming, fishing, canoeing, carnival (incentive based) where you traded ‘beads’ for candy, drinks, toys… Camp Arnold was Awesome! I recommend...

Swimming, fishing, canoeing, carnival (incentive based) where you traded ‘beads’ for candy, drinks, toys… Camp Arnold was Awesome! I recommend it for every kid! It’s a safe, healthy environment where kids can learn some good outdoor skills and learn about Jesus & meet new people. The food was excellent and the staff were friendly & instructive. I have wonderful memories of Camp Arnold & I would love to live them over again, if I could!
