I have never been in a place where I have felt the most comfortable and happy with myself. Oconto has given me incredible friendships and amazing memories. There is a reason why every year I cry when camp is over. If I could stay there forever I would. I have been going since I was 7 and have never missed a year since.

I love this camp so much! I have been going since I was 7 years old and this summer will be my 7th year. At this camp you make really great friends and get to do thins that you probably can’t at home like sailing, kayaking, pottery, etc. But for this camp you really need to love the outdoors and if you get homesick it really won’t be fun. My first years I was homesick but the activites and the councillors made me feel better. Now I never get homesick and this summer I will be going for a month!

i've only been at oconto for 3 years and i've never felt more at home than i do at camp. your experience honestly doesn't even have to depend on who you're in a cabin with, my first two years i honestly didn't like my cabin mates except the friend who i went with. my best friends are at camp and i have been counting the days until my return since the day i left. this camp brings out the silly, crazy, fun, comfortable part in every girl. Everyone is more than happy and we are our own family <33 im going back for another month as a counsellor in training and i can't wait until i can spend 10 weeks at camp with my best friends in the whole world. the activities are more than fun, I've learned how to sail, canoe, do pottery, lifeguard, and dive. i love camp and i would recommend oconto to literally anyone. i love it

Camp Oconto is the place in which I learned to be myself. I began as a timid,
shy young camper and through camp I have grown into a confident and
enthusiastic counsellor. The staff genuinely care for their campers and Lisa
and Bruce care for everyone. I have been to other camps, but none have the same
camper to counsellor ratio. Although some people are concerned that the
counsellors and campers do not live in the same room, it allows the campers to
problem solve on their own while having the option to ask someone. It allows
the counsellors time to recuperate so that they can be the best when they are
with their campers. The set-up is ideal for all girls at the camp. I wish Camp
Oconto could run full time so that I could have the opportunity to grow as much
as I do each summer. I wholeheartedly recommend Camp Oconto to girls who want
to have an amazing and memorable summer.

I went to camp oconto for 9 years and finally my daughter got to go and it was a fabulous experience for her too. skills and self confidence development get priority. facility and staff are top notch.

HORRIBLE ! I went to camp oconto, I thought it would be fun since I read the reviews here. But when I arrived, the counsellor was very rude to us. She made us braid her hair, we weren't aloud to do some activities for cause of mistakes... She made camp miserable for the whole bunk/cabin. I will never return to oconto ever again.

I LOVE OCONTO. the first year i went i went for two weeks and i was scared because i didnt have any friends there. but i made friends RIGHT AWAY and now they are some of my besties.its gonna be my third year and second year going for a month! and im SO EXCITED.for all you people who had a bad time, ist probobly just because you had one bad experience that made your whole stay at oconto crappy for you, even though if you stayed optimistic it would have been better.

This camp can be great! There are alot of great counsellors and the food is fantastic for a camp. But alot of the people who go here are spoiled brats. Your experience is really determined by who you get stuck in a cabin/zebo with.

I went to oconto as a camper for years and for the last couple of summers I've been working as a counsellor there. I love Oconto and think that it is one of the best places for girls to spend their summers. Oconto has a great atmosphere and the amazing staff and variety of activites engage the campers and ensure that they enjoy their summer at camp.

A really fantastic camp! The staff work really hard to create the best environment for all the campers. For those of you who didn't like camp who were your counsellors? And for the people who said it would be better if it was co-ed I know there are some people that feel that way, but the majority of the people disagree. And most of the people who wish it was co-ed only wish that for a year or two then grow out of it and realize how ridiculous them thinking that is. Truly the best place on earth. Those of you who says it sucks, maybe you should think about what is wrong with yourself rather than the camp, cause you are in the extreme majority! Perhaps the camp is happy to not have someone as negative as you returning to the camp!

Oconto is a great camp and myself and all my friends are always really upset when the summer comes to an end. I am already really excited for this upcoming summer. Lisa and Bruce do a fantastic job of being approachable and always there. The counsellors are great and lots of fun. For those of you who rated the camp poorly and said your counsellor ruined it-who was your counsellor? Because there might be one or two weak staff members but most of the counsellors are phenomenal and have been going to camp forever.

I have been to many camps over the past several years and Oconto is my favorite. It is a great enviroment for girls of all ages to be themselves, have fun, and make new friends without the pressures of everyday life. There is a large variety of activities and opportunities. There seems to be something for everybody. The staff are all very professional and caring. And the cabins/zebos (half cabin half screen) are beautiful. Best camp ever!

It was years ago when I went to Oconto, but I remember it vividly. It was one of the best summers I have had. I plan on sending my daughter their there when she is of age. When I was younger, I too had wished the camp was co-ed, but in retrospect I believe I learned more about myself without having the added distraction of male attention.

Camp Oconto is amazing! It is a wonderful place for girls to feel comfortable with themselves which is really important in todays world. The staff are great role models for the campers. This place allows you to be yourself without being worried that you will be judged. Criticism is not tolerated. I have been at oconto for 6 summers and can't wait to be staff! This camp has a family environment. everyone feels welcome and it's a great place to spend your summer!!!

this was a pretty good camp but wud be better if it was coed. many people agree. also if som1 needs to (NEEDS) contact their parents let them! my close friend and i came 2 oconto 3 yrs in a row. on my 3rd yr (her 4th) she was very upset about the death of her mom and was not aloud 2 phone her dad. or even see her sister in another section of the camp because she might be sleeping! i still dont think this is right. no 1 that ive told does either. i didnt even go this yr! a concerned citizen
