Great camp! The 2023 summer beach part cuboreee was awesome! Excellent staff can't say enough about this place the trading post is top class as well as the senior staff that runs it. Aquatics all the way around is an excellent old school setup and feel, very well trained lifeguards and medics, one lifeguard of many that were at attention even made a point to explain they weren't going to make direct eye contact while giving verbal assistance. The food vendor even if new was superior to most camp food I have encountered. Some facilities and activities equipment have age as well as the camp tents but all are in good working order and plentiful and add the the camp feel. Activities were plentiful directed by top notch senior staff and knowledgeable camp staff. Grounds have started to show summer maintenance. Definitely a great start to get scouts growing again after a couple off years. Huge shout out the the staff at the Forge! Thanks so much and Scout On.

The staff had a lot of activities for us to do all the time. The food definitely left something to be desired, and the portion sizes were very small, but that is to be expected of an outdoor camp. The staff was always very friendly and helpful, and the scouts really enjoyed themselves. Camp Durant is the preferred site for Scout camp...
