The kids enjoyed themselves and didn't want to leave. We came on a Monday so the parking wasn't bad and the Park was not crowded at all. Only downfall it was a super hot but we enjoyed ourselves. They have a concession stand that sells food or you can bring your own picnic set up. They have Avalon that you can rent or you can bring your own tent and utilize the picnic tables. The bathrooms are fairly clean, but of course there was no air circulating. I do wish they had some type of fountain where you could get filtered water from for free. Definitely on my to do list for next summer!

We decided to visit on a Monday with the hopes of a small crowd. Well it was not packed but definitely not a small crowd. You can pay $20 for parking inside or free parking outside. We decided to go with free parking and it was just fine! The ticket booth was a little crowded when we arrived right after opening. The line did move fast. The price was as expected for a water park at $35 for adults and older kids and $28 for under 2 and elderly. The park is open from 10am until 6pm and we spent most of the day here. The park has several picnic tables available. We decided to bring a tent to cover it. Best idea we could have thought of! They offer some paid cover sitting areas but they were booked. Our set up was perfect... just should have bought more snacks/beverages. The park has a wonderful kids area! It has a setup with the dump bucket and kids play area. The large pool area is my favorite part. The water was the perfect temp and felt clean. I stayed here most of the day. They have a few water slides near the top of the park. It had good selections for older kids. My kids loved this part! We did visit the concessions and the food was good! We spent about $13 on each meal. Next time I will bring food to save. They have a decent restroom area that was clean and comfortable. So will all of that being said... we LOVED this experience! 10 out of 10! Well done Spring Valley!

Additionally, the staff were very polite and were happy to help me as a first-time visitor. As part of a group, I was able to tackle 2 Jeep Badge of Honor trails (404 & Switchback) and enjoyed many other trails besides those. The on-site wash bays are awesome, the parking is quite expansive and overall it was a great experience. The only real criticism I can give is that the trail signage really needs to be improved. The maps they have for sale in the main building help, but better on-trail signage would go a long way to assist people in getting around the park. Had a great time overall at Stoney Lonesome! I plan on returning and staying either at a campsite or in one of the cabins.

Noticing the price hike for kids though made me feel kinda sorry for those parents wanting to take multiples. It could get expensive real quick. Admission includes a pumpkin and all the fun activities and selfies you want with the various props set up. It also includes a hayride out to the pumpkin field where you choose the one that's coming home with you. Theres a little store onsite, along with food/snack trucks. Since I'm watching what I eat, I did good and didn't purchase anything. I missed the petting zoo on this trip, which just means I will return next year!

He was challenged from the beginning and even wanted to quit. After a few days he embraced the difficulty and started to perform at a level he had never envisioned. Throughout physical, mental, and emotional challenges he worked with his battle buddies to excel and complete the program with grit, perseverance, and resilience. He has praised the camp for his ability to learn, believe in himself, and do hard things never imagined before and has expressed interest in retuning next year.

I had tried posting this on an XMC parent group run by a PARENT who's kid washed out who is making…read morefalse allegations against the camp, but every single post I tried posting was denied and all comments I tried commenting were also denied. For any parents wondering my thoughts about this camp I would highly recommend reading this. I respect that everyone is entitled to share their experience, but I also think it's important people hear from those of us who've actually spent a lot of time at Extreme Military Challenge. I've attended for about ten weeks across multiple years, including winter and summer cycles, and my experience has been completely different from what's described over there. Sure, this program isn't easy. It's built to be physically and mentally challenging, but challenging doesn't automatically mean unsafe. In all my time there, I never saw campers being denied medical care, all the sexual assault claims get taken very seriously, but having a group of 30 to 40 teenagers sleeping in the same room utilizing the same latrine somethings gonna happen that is not the camp's fault and as soon as the camp is notified about these situations, they take it extremely serious. The amount of kids that have gotten sent home because of making stupid decisions and being irresponsible is actually crazy. I never saw staff telling kids to keep secrets from parents, the silly chants? You mean Cadences? Yes those are to keep everybody in step while marching not for entertainment for the parents, and I never witnessed the kind of culture that's being portrayed in this facebook group. It was tough, yes, but it was also structured, and focused on building discipline and confidence. I'm not saying every single person will have the exact same experience I did, but serious accusations should be supported with evidence and handled by proper authorities, not assumed as fact because a post says so. This camp is designed for personal growth through challenge. Some people thrive in that environment, and some decide it's not for them. And that's okay, but not liking a program or struggling with it isn't proof of systemic abuse. This camp isn't just about discipline, perseverance, motivation, and physical activity. It is also about the fun and pride and joy you feel when you accomplish something that you didn't think you could accomplish before with some of the best people you will ever meet. I'm not speaking for the camp, I'm speaking as someone who lived the experience over time. For me, it built resilience, confidence, and the best friendships i have. I just want people considering it to see more than one side and to make an informed decision. Personally, this is one of my favorite camps I've ever gone to and met some of the greatest people and mentors in my life. Yes, at times it gets difficult, but also I've had a lot of fun at extreme military challenge
