My daughter went to Camp Anokijig for mini camp as a 7 year old. She really enjoyed herself, and…read moreis excited to return this summer for an entire week. Yes, summer camp has bugs and tents and the great outdoors - I don't see that as a negative. There are plenty of summer camps that cater to all types of kids, including those that need internet and air conditioning in order to have a good time. My favorite part about the programming at Camp Anokijig is the amount of self-directed choices each camper gets to make, every day. Skills are chosen once they arrive at camp. There are multiple free periods each day, where all camp activities are fully staffed and the campers get to choose what they want to do. These campers get more age-appropriate independence and the opportunity to make their own decisions during one week at Camp Anokijig than they do anywhere else.

BEWARE - Not Safe or Suitable for First-Time Campers…read more This camp was a traumatic experience for my son and his friend, who was attending sleepaway camp for the first time. The accommodations were extremely poor--my son described cracks in the floors where you could see the ground, spider webs everywhere, and a general sense of neglect. Campers were not allowed to use outlets to charge personal fans, even though temperatures reached 100 degrees. Twenty people were crammed into one un-airconditioned bunkhouse. Meanwhile, counselors were using outlets for their phones and had snacks and energy drinks in the cabin--despite a stated no-food policy. My son also mentioned that counselors slept on both sides of him, which he found unsettling. He didn't shower the entire time because of long lines and limited availability. He was so relieved just to shower when he got home. Cabins were not locked at night, and the tent accommodations were practically open to the elements--walls weren't even attached, so without a net, campers were exposed to bugs and the outdoors. Everything felt bare bones and worn out, like it hadn't been updated in 100 years. The camp seems to have invested in a new shelter, but neglected critical needs like air conditioning or an improved commissary. The food was limited, and my son, a normally good eater, barely ate. Snack shop lines were 40-50 kids long--completely disorganized. Adding water misters or a pool would help with the extreme heat, especially since the lake was brown and murky. My son refused to swim in it--he loves the water, so this speaks volumes. Because he didn't take the swim test in that water, he was not allowed to use most boats--even with a life jacket. At night, it was pitch black. No nightlights, no reading quietly in bed--just total darkness, which scared him. He was even yelled at for running--apparently, there's a no-running policy. That completely baffled me. The only bright spot was the nursing staff--my son felt well taken care of medically. But overall, the experience was very upsetting. I received an alarming note three days after drop-off and had to pick him up early. We were forced into a full-week session (the only available slot), even though we preferred the half-week. So we lost money on top of everything else. When I asked a counselor about how he did, I got no feedback. They didn't even consult with the counselors who were actually with my son. Later, he told me he was hit in the head with a golf club--yet no incident report or communication was ever sent to us. In conclusion: If your child is new to sleepaway camp, this is NOT the place for them. The accommodations are poor, the rules are confusing, and the supervision questionable. My son was in tears at pick-up and continued to tear up throughout the evening as we talked about his experience.

I was so pleased to see the pristine forest understory. No garlic mustard crowding out the natives! Kudos to the staff and volunteers for taking such good care of this beautiful resource. The woods looked healthy--like what I remembered from childhood, before garlic mustard invaded the Midwest. It made me realize how much we have lost in many of our woods. I really was here to see migrating warblers, and I was rewarded with bunches of Palm, Black and White, Chestnut-Sided, Magnolia, Yellow-Rumped, and a brilliant pair of Blackburnian warblers. There was also a Red-Breasted Grosbeak sitting about five feet over my head letting me get a good look at him. The trail I walked wound through the woods and along a pretty creek and the air was full of birdsong. There was also a nice visitor's center. Great place.
