Wow. Camp Augusta was way more than I expected. Almost to a fault. Let me explain: we came here…read morefor a family weekend camp and really didn't look to hard at what it was. I've been to camp. I've been to Tahoe national forest. I know what it was going to be and hoo boy was I wrong... in thre best possible way. So apparently most of the people there are seasonal regulars and it showed. I'll explain at the bottom. First if all the drive from the south bay. It was not the three hours my wife said, on a Friday afternoon it was almost six. Now that that is out of the way, the rest is all good. First came activity sign up, hope you don't suffer from anxiety or fear of missing out because there are SOOOOOOO many activities. Kid stuff, toddler stuff, adult stuff, stuff I didn't think camps could do. And you should read the emails with the descriptions or man up and ask, because some things are self explanatory (pottery, acrylics, archery, zip line) and some sound fun but in reality shouldn't be done by an overweight 50 year old who has no training, but you can still sign up. And then SOMEHOW they get you to do it and you have a great time! Next are accommodations. Sparse, but cool. Open air cabins in villages, secluded bungalows, pole tents, platform tents, and more (bring bug spray, they're all kinda just open). Different villages, running water means not only flushing toilets (really that should be the title and get 5 stars for that alone) but also HOT showers. While camping. Hot showers and camping, whoddathunkit? Next meals. Meals at camp. Cool. Nope: incredible. Apparently it is a rotating menu but for a weekend or week it means without being a host you have a new option at every meal. Vegans, gluten free, dairy free, whatever, they got you covered. You eat everything, they got you too. Ls favourite was pancakes with berries and whipped cream. And they don't go light. I really dig the teriyaki chicken. The activities were all great, but again there were just too many. You really feel like it is overboard until you get to know everyone else there. It is a place that kids and parents look forward to year after year. The wide selection means that this will be your go to for camping for years to come and for good reason. There were kids that have been going since they were toddlers and now in the mid teens that can still go and have a good time. I had lunch (but no clinics unfortunately) with a young lady who was on year 9. That seemed unlikely bit that wasd including the time she was a camper. How cool is that? L was suffering from preteen cool and didn't want to go to camp, but after the first datu he was pestering me to get him in a couple sessions this summer. They are all full but there is a waitlist, so we're all in on getting him up there somehow. Tl;dr: awesome camp, read my review, it isn't that long

This is an educational camp. Kids are kept safe while learning about nature and the environment…read more Outstanding staff, outstanding activities. Naturalists are San Juan Unified School District teachers, and counselors are often area students. Summer programs offer a variety of options for all kinds of kids from basketball camp, art camp to Venture camp for older kids (and many more).

The teachers here are amazing! My middle schooler even had a teacher from his old public school, which was super helpful since he planed to go back to public high school later. This kept him on track (and even ahead) with what he needed to know. Something that I love is that the kids are outside ALL THE TIME! They have class outside, eat lunch outside, and do pretty much everything outside unless the weather is really bad. In summer, they sit under shady trees with nice breezes. In winter, they bundle up with jackets and blankets near space heaters. It reminds me of how European kids spend way more time outdoors instead of being stuck inside all day. My kids have learned tons and made great friends here. If you've read the book "Wild and Free," this school follows that idea perfectly. Kids learn, play, and grow at their own speed. Even if your kids go to regular school, Wild Roots has awesome summer camps that cost less than a babysitter! The kids learn cool stuff while having fun outside. I tell everyone looking for homeschool help around Folsom to check out Wild Roots. It's been such a great place for my family!

I was in Yuba City this summer for an internship and needed care for my son. The summer camp they…read moreprovided was ideal in location and operating hours with lots of planned activities. The cost was also very competitive as I found other businesses in the wider area to have similar pricing but with reduced care hours and/or fewer events to keep the kids engaged. The real measure of quality for me, however, was in how they responded and resolved a concern: my son was getting teased by some of the other kids and began complaining about going to camp. When I brought this to the director's attention, I received a very considerate and proactive response from her. The issue was addressed immediately by the staff and my son ended up going from complaining about going to being disappointed that we won't be returning next year. The cost, timeframe, and activities were all excellent but the seamless handling of a concern is what really made Kidz Time stand out for me. Many thanks!

When I was there as a camper, I was astounded by all of the cool things we got to do - mountain biking, zip lining, blobbing, ropes course(ing?)... They also have a great bead shop, snack shop, and pool. Since I was a camper, they've added a climbing tower, really fast slides (which are apparently amazing), and a gigantic swing. I also really liked the food... mmm churros for dessert. There are surprises everyday, lots of games and activities, fun skits, and plenty of interaction with other campers. The camp itself is western-y and the cabins are very nice for a summer camp. As a camper, I remember thinking that everyone who worked there was so friendly and genuine. And once I became a worker there, I realized it was because everyone there had this amazing heart for Jesus and passion for the youth. There is a "speaker" who throughout the week explains what Jesus Christ did for us, and it is amazing to see how many kids are touched by the message. Being at Woodleaf is truly an amazing experience.

5 stars - Fantastic Experience with Wake on the Lake!…read more We had such a great time with Wake on the Lake! They were incredibly easy to work with and managed to get us in for a Father's Day weekend charter on short notice on Folsom Lake, which was much appreciated. We booked a 3-hour trip and packed in a ton of fun! The crew was totally flexible and let us customize the experience to be exactly what we wanted. We cruised around the lake, swam, and even tried water surfing behind the boat. Sky was amazing with our daughter--she gave her a lesson, walked her through the basics, and coached her the entire way. It made the experience so much more memorable for our family. They came fully equipped with everything we needed, including life vests for the whole crew. Whether we had wanted to just relax and cruise or stay in the water the whole time, they were happy to go with whatever worked for us. Next time, we're definitely going to try the tubes and the floating island--they had it all ready and it looked like a blast. Highly recommend Wake on the Lake if you're looking for a fun, professional, and flexible boat charter experience!
