I had so much fun there the past summer that I went,all the people there are really nice and the counselors are upbeat and help you.The different activities were really awesome and the food was better than I thought. I'm glad I'll be able to go again for my 2nd year! Honestly you just sign up and go see for yourself.

I was a camper at ISTC for 5 years and I wouldn't trade any of my memories there for the world. I made lifelong friends and that was because of the environment ISTC set up for us. All of the counsellors and coaches are so much fun and constantly taught us new games and activities. I couldn't even list all the things if I tried. Besides all of the sports like soccer, basketball and rugby, there are so many other activities like banana boating, jet skiing, rock climbing and mountain biking. I also love the food at camp. So many options and all so yummy. But the best thing about camp is just how kind and positive everyone is. You won't find a sad face at camp because the staff always make sure you're having the best day, every day. Cabins are constantly cheering together and having fun, especially at the Wednesday night dances! If I wasn't too old now for camp, I'd definitely be going back again this summer!

I was a camper at ISTC for 8 year and I LOVED it. There are ample amounts of activities to do for all types of children! The facilities are breathtaking! A lot of camps I have looked at are not lucky to have a private lake like ISTC has. The staff are so welcoming and energetic! They make sure that each and every child gets the attention they need and deserve! This is the perfect vacation for any child no matter how big or small!

If you're looking for a fun and positive experience for your camper then this is the place! The staff really care about the kids! The communication before, during and after camp is great. Be sure to register early as some weeks close early as they are so popular, they also have good discounts for early registration. I couldn't recommend this camp highly enough!

Everything at ISTC is awesome. From the food, to the activities, to the facilities, to the waterfront(so much fun!), to the cabins, to the staff. They really care about you, and you're the priority. The past year, I had to stay over in the health center overnight because of a virus, and my counselers and cabin mates sent me cards. Seriously, if you are considering ISTC, you should sign up. Now. Right now. Seriously. The spots fill up really quickly!

My child had the best time this past summer at ISTC. I couldn't have asked for a more helpful staff and a more caring environment to send him too!

Unfortunately the boy my son signed up with broke his foot literally the day before camp and couldn't go. Both were upset and mine refused (understandably) to go as he had never done a sleep away camp before and didn't know any other kids. We lost everything $900. There were no options whatsoever given to us. We would have been satisfied with a penalty and / or them keeping our money for one year to use toward camp next summer. Nothing. Won't ever consider them again

My younger daughter is there for her 5th time...she loves it so much that this year she begged for 2 weeks. My older daughter also loved it there. The girls say that the food is great. It is always very organized and the counselors are SO upbeat. They remember the kids' names from year to year. The activities and facilities are beautiful. I strongly recommend.

What a great experience. These people really care about the kids and their camping experience. I can only compare this to my experience last year at Westmont, which was terrible!!!

My sons have enjoyed 7+ years at this camp always begging to return. Great owners, staff, and facilities. Very high behavior standards too. I will be so sorry when they are too old to attend, but know they will have great camp memories!

This is my son'd 3rd summer. I was really nervous but he really loves it. Great for kids who love to play hard all day. My son goes for 2 weeks. One all sports week and one basketball. He comes home completeley fried. In a good way though. High marks on the food as well. Prepare your child to be exhausted as lights out are at 11pm. It has been a great experience overall!!!

I believe this camp was not up to par in my point of view. First of all, the year I went, there was a huge rainstorm all week. Every morning we would wake up to a flooded, wet room and all of our stuff was soaked. Then, we had to walk to the mess hall but we couldn't run because we had to stay behind the counselors. By the time we finally got there, our only set of dry clothes that we had put on were just as saturated as the ones in our trunks that had gotten wet from the flooding. The counselors gave us no freedom at all, hense not being able to walk to the mess hall by ourselves. What are we going to do, run away? Another thing that really bothered me was how even though it was raining, they made us play sports on those muddy fields. Don't get me wrong, I love sports, but I'm not the biggest fan when I come back to my cabin covered in mud with everyone yelling at me not to track it into the cabin. The other thing is, those cabins are impossible to clean when they are wet. It wasnt fu

The first camp i have ever gone to and it will be the only one cause its so amazing i dont wanna go anywhere else. All the staff is from all over the world and its so fun and FUN because u dont know what they r saying half the time with their accents. I had coaches one from ireland and one from south africa and it was great. you do so much fun stuff like jet skiing banana boating and rock climbing. We even went biking in the rain and the cabin life isnt too good but ur in there for maybe like 9 hours and that includes 7hours of sleep. I met so many nice people there and i cannot wait to go back next year. Definetly go to this camp if your looking for one.

This is a wonderful camp for the active camper! My child has attended for the last three years and plans to go next summer as well! The activities are so varied and lots of fun for the campers! The staff has always been so helpful and the kids always love their counselors! Facilities are great and clean! This is a very well-run camp! Would prefer if there was a doctor on staff.

BEST CAMP EVER!!!! I have been going for 3 yrs. so far and I am going back this year(the last week of camp). I had fun everyday. The dances are awesome too. The counselors are cool too. They come from all over the world!!!! The food was amazing too. The cool part is that they also make you do chores, which is good because it teaches you responsibility. I would totally recommend it to you and your friends.

An amazing sleep away camp. The counselors are SO friendly and so down to earth. They have awesome activities planned for you and the lake is just gorgeous. Jet-skis are amazing and so is banana boating. The food is to DIE for. Definitely the best sleepaway camp there is.
