I was not impressed with this camp when my son attended. The director did not communicate well with parents. On visitor's day, there was a distinct lack of warmth and enthusiasm from the counselors and other staff. The setting is beautiful, activities seemed good but camp is about creating connections between people and on this front, they failed. If a child is struggling at camp for whatever reason, your job as camp staff is to help find ways to help, not sit and watch it happen and then judge or criticize them. Not impressed and would not recommend to others.

Simply the best camp experience on Georgian Bay in this price range. I think it is the best all boys camp I know of.

Last year, was my first time at summer camp so I was a bit nervous. The staff went out of their way to make me feel at home. It was the best 2 weeks of my life! amazingingly beautiful location and lots of fun activities. If you love nature and the outdoors, this is the place for you. the owners, Polly, even come and have lunch with every kid to make sure everything is okay. She even knows everybody's names during the summer.

Camp Hurontario is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I made many of my best friends at Hurontario, and its setting, along with it's woodsy philosophy make it a great place for boys to learn and grow.

the councillors are very well chosen, the trips give the camp a very different feeling in comparison to other camps. Finally there is a large variety of activities and cookouts on on of the numerous islands the camp owns

Its a boys only camp and it has very strong history and tradition of greatness. This camp is on an island in Georgian Bay and is TRULY like no other camp. I can't wait to go back EVERY year! A fantastic summer camp experience with exceptional staff!

Wow. Been to a few camps before I decided to stay with this one. Excellent nature camp. Amazing out trips. Land and water activities are varied and challenging. Skills are built to prepare for amazing and challenging trips for older boys. Returning for year 4!

Hurontario is a great camp for boys who love to do lots of exciting activities. Hurontario has a very good tripping program. They offer many different activities such as rock climbing, archery, ropes, wind surfing, kayaking, cannoing, art and wood working. A very fun camp for any age. A great choice.
