Parent Testimonials

This is not just a camp, but a special place that is ineffable.  It holds so many memories, and had a huge positive impact during my formative years. I loved it so much I came back as a counselor, and now am lucky enough to send my daughter there to carry on the tradition. It is truly a summer home, and home is where the heart is!

Marimeta is simply THE BEST!  Spending the summers in Eagle River with the most incredible directors, staff and counselors of Camp Marimeta has impacted our girls forever. It has helped teach them the values and morals we believe in, given our girls experiences and memories that will be treasured forever and built friendships that will last a lifetime!!

I can’t imagine sending my daughter anywhere but back to Marimeta.  This will be her 3rd summer and she looks forward to returning as soon as camp ends!  We weren’t sure if she was going to be able to return to camp but Sandy and his family, (everyone there is family) moved mountains to make sure that she returned to a loving, caring & most importantly safe environment.  Without sounding too corny, I’m truly grateful for the gift and priceless experience of both independence & camaraderie that everyone at Marimeta makes possible!

Three daughters, ten years and going strong! Camp Marimeta is the greatest gift we have ever given to our daughters. At camp, they became independent, self-reliant and extraordinarily close as sisters. They have developed and maintained the most amazing and true friendships that span across the entire country. Camp Marimeta offers our girls everything they could ask for and more. As parents, for the last ten summers (going on our 11^th), we have watched Marimeta take our girls from campers to counselors, and we couldn’t think of a better place for them to spend all of their summers.
