Geneva Glen Camp - Indian Hills, Colorado

We heard great things about Geneva Glen from our friends, so I assume it's a great camp, but be careful when you register. The 30 bucks is non-refundable even if they don't have any room for your kiddo. I registered on the day it opened, but I didn't get to complete it until about 10 AM. They had room for one of our kids but not the other (which is odd because I submitted them at the same time). So, if you can't register for the camp immediately, or if you don't have some other "in", you're pretty much just throwing away your money and wasting an hour or two of your time (the online forms are extensive, which makes sense). I understand it's only 60 bucks, but it seems unfair to collect people's money when you likely don't have a spot for their kids anyway, and then not return it. Also, the staff is not very responsive via email. Perhaps a phone call is better? Like I said, we haven't sent our kids here, so it might be a great camp, but our experience of trying to get our boys into the camp has been a lousy one. It's really a 1-star experience we've had, but I didn't want to weight the review that heavily, given that our kids haven't gone here, and a 3-star seemed fair. I hope this helps others for next year.

I often tell people that GG was the most influential thing in my young life. More than my parents/family, more than my church, anything. Now that I'm nearing 50 and have a camper of my own at GG, I'm always astounded at how often during my day-to-day that I hearken back to those lessons and qualities I started learning about 40 years ago. Geneva Glen will always be home to me. I think my 9-year-old daughter feels the same way. And I am so thankful. <3

I can’t say enough good things about this camp. My experience as a counselor was life-changing. Our children attended camp and later worked there as counselors. Their cousins did the same. The combination of character-building, leadership training, and group-living all in the beautiful atmosphere of the Colorado mountains was invaluable to their growing up to be successful spouses, parents, and citizens. Now our grandchildren and their cousins are third-generation GG campers, I visited camp recently, and I was glad to find that the "Magic of the Glen" still exists. Our lives have truly been bettered by Geneva Glen.

Nancy and Ken made my childhood an absolute dream come true. From the friends I made, to the experiences I had, this was the best place to spend a summer at. Geneva Glen will always be close to my heart. I can't wait for my son to experience this place too!

I have been going to Geneva Glen for seven years now and I can say with certainty: the magic of the Glen is real. GG is my favorite part of any summer because I know I belong there. I have made hundreds of friends over the years and had so many amazing counselors. Usually around the beginning of January, I start get nostalgic for camp. I always miss it so much!! Words can’t describe the feeling I get at camp!

I usually go to Knighthood II and I can definitely say it is my favorite session. (Though all sessions are great, it’s GG!) The stories, the acting, the dancing, the evening activities, they all give my a beautiful feeling like I am just free from the stress of everything. It’s a whole new world at camp, an environment I never want to leave. I wish everyone could get this amazing feeling that I get at camp.

To any GG campers or alumni, I hope you had the same wonderful experience I had.

And to any new parents or children, I promise you, you will not be disappointed by this incredible place.

There is no place better to send your child than Geneva Glen. In this crazy world, this is a safe place where a child can be free to be who they are and learn about nature. The Directors and staff are outstanding and the experience has given my child an additional circle of friends outside of school that she has cherished for the 13 years shes been associated with the camp.
