Business Review
"My 8yo son and 11 yo daughter absolutely adored their week of Go Wild camp! We love Timbernook’s philosophy of free play in nature. Thanks to the awesome staff! My son says “Best camp ever! When can I go to another one?” ~ Kerry L., Facebook
'My son says that he loves everything especially having friends and playing in the woods.' ~ Barbara D.
"Thank you so much for extending the opportunity to J. and M. to attend Timbernook last week. If possible, they said it was EVEN BETTER than last year. The child-led excavations were especially fun! We tell people a lot about the "camp in the forest" the boys really like and it seems that more and more folks have heard of Timbernook, which is great!" ~ Elizabeth and Eric B.
"We LOVE Timbernook! We have been going for 4 years now with both of our children and the increased confidence of exploring and interacting with peers is the greatest benefit. Emma and Erin have been our kids teachers most of the time and they are wonderful! We have also had Sherri who is such a wealth of knowledge for parents and has so many useful connections and a way to ease parents minds about any developmental worries." ~ Jessica C.
"Our child has been attending Timbernook for four years. It has been a massively positive experience for him, where he feels a sense of belonging and inclusion and freedom to play and just be himself. Timbernook has been a consistent and integral part of his growth and social development." ~ Anonymous from survey
"Our daughter felt this camp is the best she's ever been to and wishes she could go for all 5 weeks in a row!" ~ Talia B.
