Camp Experience

Camp parent

"This place has changed our son's life. The staff, the counselors, and the other campers all love, encourage, and challenge each other. Sending our son here for the last 5 years has been the best decision we ever made!"

Camp parent

"This summer, I sent five kids to Deer Creek Camp, and all five cried when they left. They loved their counselors, their friends, and the experience itself. They are genuine Christians with whom you can trust your children. We will be back next year for sure."

Camp parent

"The truly loving, Godly atmosphere is contagious and my kids come back fired up for the Lord!!"

Camp parent

"We have been sending our 3 kids for 7 years for one of them and 5 for the other 2. It is something that gets them through the year in great anticipation of camp!"

Camp parent

"Our daughter was eager to try a summer camp and I wanted it to be faith based so when I did some research Deer Creek looked great. And now, 2 years later it is the thing our daughter looks forward to the most every summer."

Camp parent

“When my children came home, they were more appreciative of their family. They also started to seek out time for God everyday, and became more respectful toward each other!”

Camp parent

"We have recently moved out of Texas but will still send our children to Deer Creek! The truly loving, Godly atmosphere is contagious, and my kids come back fired up for the Lord!"
