This is a supremely friendly Christian summer camp place. Registering your child is super easy and…read morethe fees are affordable. It's such a welcoming place for all children and the counselors that volunteer are family. The cabins are very unique in that they are named after famous Texans in our state's history. Like Davy Crockett, William B Travis, James Fannin, Juan Seguin and James Bonham just to name several. This place is situated in the middle of Crockett. Very country and what's it to like? Rolling hills, beautiful trees, major green belt areas and a lake. They have cool activities for the kids like riflery, archery, horse back riding, arts & crafts, swimming in the lake and much much more. This is the kind of camp that is could be the cherry topping of a wonderful summer.

This was our child experience at Camp Niwana! This is a…read morecopy of the letter I wrote to them about our issues! I am emailing to report that we are completely floored and disappointed on how our child was treated while at your camp last week. The lack of accountability is unacceptable! That your nurse would argue with us about our child's medication instructions, after she did not administer medication to our children all week, is so irresponsible! I made an attempt to speak to those in charge, but everyone kept passing me on to someone else! On the way home, our child informed us that she was so sick, she was having accidents in her bed; and asked to call home to inform us and was denied access to a phone! This is unacceptable!! If YOUR STAFF is incapable of taking care of OUR CHILDREN while in your care, then at the very least, someone should have contacted us and given us the option of coming to get them! Her counselors bullied her and allowed for her bunk mate to also bully her the entire week! She stated that one counselor pushed her because the counselor did not feel that our child was doing as instructed. The other one stepped on her hand and stated to her, "I am so NOT sorry for doing that." Our child also asked to see her younger sister because she was so sick and was denied the request when other campers were allowed to hang out with their siblings. When she asked why she could not see her sister, the counselor told her because it was her first year; and that only campers who have been attending for several years were allowed to visit with their siblings. If there is going to be such favoritism then maybe you all should NOT have put out a Groupon. Our child came home broken and has not been herself since we picked her up on Saturday. She is distant, she does not want to make eye contact with anyone, and she does not want anyone to touch her and most importantly has not smiled since she has been home! I seriously hope that you will re-train all your counselors; but especially your nurse, because all this behavior is inexcusable!

It is not too far from home and very new and clean. I am guessing this camp is less than five years old but the construction and thought process behind the layout is wonderful. They have a huge slide that goes into the lake. They have a theatrical theater, new, clean, very nice cabins that have AC. They keep out fresh fruit as snacks, and my daughter being a vegetarian had no problem at all. The leaders of this camp base everything (from what I can tell) about developing your daughter into a strong independent person. They stress the great women in history and the impact they made on our lives. They lead your child into coming home full of confidence and pride in the things they accomplished with out your help. My daughter did one week last year but it will be two this year. This camp made a huge impression on her life and I am excited to see how she grows in the next session this summer. This is a very nice safe and protected place for you child. I often look at the picture on her wall hanging out in front of her cabin , messing around with her friends, having the time of her life. Sincerely, Papa Bear.

My daughters have been going to this camp for 5 years. Every year, they count down the days until…read morethey can go again. It's been a magical place for them. I'm so happy that Piper and Popsie (the leaders) have been part of our lives. Some of my favorite stories my girls have shared.... When my youngest daughter went for the first couple years, she had a "big sister" from the 9th grade leadership girls. The big sisters are supposed to grant wishes for the little sisters. Well, my daughter wanted to stop time. So, her "big" got everyone in the camp to agree that if my daughter yelled "Freeze!" in the dining hall, everyone would stop in place for five seconds. It was an empowering moment to know her wish could come true in such a creative way. Another year, my older daughter was struggling with some friendship issues. When the counselors ended up giving her the firelighter award - as someone who represented the spirit of camp - her entire self-perception changed in a very positive way that carried forward out of camp. This year, the middle school girls wrote everything they didn't like about themselves on post its, stuck them on their counselors, then ripped the post-its to shreds... so they knew they could destroy the power those things had over them. On top of all these amazing self-empowerment moments, camp is just fun! My girls come back learning new songs, happy about new friends, and exhausted from having so much activity for two solid weeks. And they even rave about the food. We heart CLC.

I can not say enough wonderful things about this camp. Every year that we have picked them up, no one wants to come home as they want to continue to stay and have fun with their counselors, friends, old and new, and being adventurous. I felt compelled to write this review because I read some of the negative reviews left that I can absolutely, with 100% assurance, say we have never heard of nor experienced with any of our children. People from every walk of life are present and everyone is welcomed with open arms. I've also gone myself for the mother-daughter camp and experienced first-hand how the bunks feel and the camp operates. They were comfortable, quiet and clean. While the cuisine isn't five-star, it is good camp food. The kids love it and there is a good selection. We can't expect a Perry's steakhouse every night for these guys! The counselors have always been very attentive and write to our children via postcard during the year to check-in and encourage them to continue their personal growth and relationship with God. My children LOVE their counselors. The camp is wholesome, fun, offers a huge selection of activities and is close to Houston while being just far enough away. I could go on and on, but I would encourage anyone looking for a great place to send their children for a fantastic sleep away camp to look into Camp Cho-Yeh.

The price included lodging and meals. Since this is a teen camp in the summer, it's important to keep in mind their primary audience: youth. The rooms are very rustic. You should bring flip flops to walk in and possibly an air mattress. You also provide all linens. Our daughter woke up covered in ants - apparently she had a nest in the comforter or mattress that was here. Hence the mid range rating. We didn't bring cleaning supplies to clean our room prior to use but will next time. We spent most of our time in the dining hall where it's cool. The staff is hospitable and meals are timely.
