Would be nice if it was closer to water for swimming. Very strict about quite time at 10. Yurts are starting to get a bit run down. And the bees are so bad. Friendly people work there. Paintball is always fun. Ropes course and zip line are much to expensive. Bows need repairs and same with axes. We have been there a few times and always have had fun but even did this last time. But think that was our last time there going. Getting much to expensive and run down. Still recommend but be prepared.

So much fun! Campgrounds are clean, staff are friendly and helpful, lots of activities for all ages and fitness levels. We've been here twice and can't wait to come back! Tent cabins are the way to go! We loved having Zen and Kicks as I our zipline and ropes challenge guides. The disc golf course is not the best and the playground really only has a swing set and a small playhouse but those are minor complaints. I think they usually have sales in April so you should make your summer plans then to save some money. We stayed in cabin 41. It was nice but be aware that it's kind of steep getting to the cabin from where you park your car. We'll be back sooner than later

My husband had broke his hip but was able to be mobile enough to enjoy watching the grandkids enjoy themselves. He could still cook. So he was our chef. The yurt we had rented had a close bathroom and a ramp for easy access. The camp itself is well layed out for activities.  Nearby activities: Zip line for older kids &amp; adults as well as a smaller one for younger ones, archery, rockwall and tie die and some more

Overall great experience. We stayed in one of their large yurts. The yurt left a bit to be desired as mattresses were old, the floor was wavy imagine waves on the ocean and it needs more outlets. Our site 15 was decently sized as most locations here were. There was one picnic table we had to exchange on our own. It was old and broken when we got there then were told ir would be replaced. Never was so we carried one from another areas to our campsite. They have running water around the entire park. The port a potties are cleaned twice a day week so they’re good 2 of the 3 days they aren’t be cleaned. The last day usually before the clean out is the worst. But they do clean them daily and empty them twice a week.  The propane grill we had wasn’t the greatest they really need to power wash them and replace parts. There was propane but the grills had no starterlighter provided and the burners need to be replaced/cleaned.  The covered area for them was nice but I will say the entire yurt moved when someone walked around these severely need to be reinforced or the supports need to be replaced. I saw some not so to code ways of supporting them.  The fireplace inside was used and kept things warm. I do wish there was a way to vent the yurt.  The staff here is awesome. They were always friendly with the kids and adults and either like what they’re doing or are just good people I think a little of both.  The store they have on site has everything you need and lore. I do with their pizza ordering was a little later but they offer that at any time of the day as well as coffee orders for the morning. Just nice touches.  Overall this place is great kids had a blast and so did adults. It’s pricey and I wish it wasn’t so dusty everywhere but it’s very nice out there. Get some more Wi-Fi around the place or offer tvs with a dvd player and rentals for those shorter days of the year when stuff isn’t available and you’re trying to stay dry.

There are so many different options for camping. Most of the single tent sites were very large in comparison to most other places I have camped. Endless activities for all ages, excellent place if you enjoy camping and have high energy kids. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Will be returning at some point without the child for some potential day use.

Needs major upkeep and cleaning. Yurts were filthy and the decks were falling apart. The adventure bracelets a joke! You get barely nothing for them and the events you do get are broken down and falling apart. Extremely expensive, you pay extra for everything you do. A bag of dirt will cost you $20 for gold panning and $30 a person for paintball even if you spent almost 1400$ for 3 campsites and a yurt. Everything fun to do will cost you! You get barely anything for camping with them in their dirty broken down adventure park.  Safety: I didn’t trust the safety of the events due to the lack of upkeep. They allowed people into the paintball with fully automatic paintball guns and getting hit 6 times all at once brings you to your knees. There were adult woman shooting my granddaughter in the face over and over even when she called herself out. Then she laughed and bragged about it while my granddaughter cried. A bunch of kids running this place. I didn’t see one adult all weekend.

Such an awesome place for an adventure! Come to campa and stay for the activities! Paint ball, jelly ball, archery, axe throwing, an escape room, arts and crafts, gold panning, obstacle courses and zip lines! I'm sure I'm forgetting something. There are regular camp sites but also yurts and cabin tents. A good time was had by all even though it was 100 degrees and smoky!

We came to throw Jo’s exgirlfriend a surprise party, but “she couldn’t make it.” So we decided to make this break a body painting exercise on the paintball course. What a fantastic time with solid homies and a great staff. Definitely recommend Camp Dakota’s beautiful camp ground for some good old fashion time in the woods!Rooms: 5/5

I cannot say enough good things about Camp Dakota! We spent the week of the 4th of July there and had a blast! From the spacious campsites to the well stocked camp store, we needed for nothing. It really lives up to its name... adventure camp! We did not need to leave the campground at all and still had plenty to do! While we really enjoyed the rock climbing, archery, gold panning, and such, my kids really loved the challenge courses and gellyball best! The staff was always friendly and helpful, from start to finish.  I want to give a shout out to one particular staffer...Rerun! He was beyond amazing with my kids during the challenge courses! My kids are 17 and 8, both have anxiety, and both emotionally broke down at the same time, stuck high above the ground. Rerun was running back and forth between the adult course and the kid course to help them anyway he could. He had all the patience of a saint and the encouragement of a therapist, always with a reassuring smile on his face. My oldest said she would not have made it through without him. He put on his gear and climbed up there in a flash to help her! Rerun, you were our savior that day!!  I have no complaints, only a couple of suggestions. First, I understand that the camp is geared toward able bodied adventurers. The camp isn't huge and walking from the camp sites at the back is doable for the abled bodied. But a few parking spots near the activities would have been very helpful to those with limited mobility, like me.   Secondly, I wished the challenge courses came with gloves. My daughter walked away from that with hands full of blisters.  Thank you, Camp Dakota, for one of the most successful family vacations yet!!!!

Camping with activities. I've taken my family quite a few times over the years. The activities are a little on the spendy side but being able to have adventure camping has been worth it for me. The staff are friendly and helpful and great with the kiddos.Rooms: 4/5
