Testimonials

“Church Alive had the opportunity to host our annual Men’s Conference with over 200 men at Iroquois Springs Camp & Retreat Center. The level of excellence in everything they do combined with the friendly staff was so incredible. Brian was extremely helpful and had a super quick turnaround time with any questions or concerns of ours. They were flexible when we needed to change plans and adaptable when we were looking to do something out of the ordinary.”

The facility itself is beautiful. The lake with all of the blow ups, the firepit with the Adirondacks chairs, the new theatre with garage doors that look outside amongst a really well planned set up for cabins that are housed in a circle to assist in the community aspect. The staff was courteous, professional, and happy to serve. Would highly recommend this facility!

“We cannot thank the team at IS enough for making our conference and company retreat a success. The staff were incredibly hospitable and knowledgeable, regularly checking in on us to ensure everything was going smoothly. We appreciate your flexibility in allowing us to customize the space for our events! Thank you!”

“A great experience that allowed us to focus on operating a successful cross-country camp. Iroquois Springs Staff provided everything we could possibly require to meet the needs of our campers. Throughout the time of our camp, the staff constantly made themselves available for feedback and support. Five Star always feels at home with Iroquois Springs, and I look forward to our continued partnership.”

I am so grateful for all your help! You and your staff were patient and made today an unforgettable experience for my families. Everyone had a great time! I heard our families talking about their different experiences – the serene hike, courage to share in their family drawing, laughs with the team building activities and enjoying the lunch and snacks. Thank you for everything!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

From day one until the moment the bus pulled away late Sunday the entire process working with you and your staff was seamless. The energy, love and devotion was evident and allowed us to have a successful trip. I know that it’s not easy planning a trip for kids with kids but our captains and committee who are in their teens saw what you were able to accomplish while having a smile on your face.

Thank you again and looking forward to working together in the future.

I just wanted to reach out again to say hello and to thank you for dealing with all of our craziness to make my wedding dreams a reality! Still can’t believe how perfect everything was! I will be forever grateful.

“We are incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with you. Thank you for hosting us, putting up with our occasionally outlandish requests and running such an organized experience. You and your team are wonderful. On a personal level, I appreciate your advice, your thoughtful recommendations and your kindness during a week / month of new challenges for me!”

“Thank you for giving our global organizers a home for a few days. What a heart opening few days! You and your team were fantastic. You run a tight ship. Mad respect from all of us!”

“We have hosted Camp GLP, our annual summer camp for adults, for the past 4 years at Iroquois Springs. The success of our 3 ½ day program is in no small part due to do the leadership of Brian and his awesome crew. Each year, they have gone above and beyond to help us create an incredible experience for our campers (we have grown from 250 to over 400 campers). In all my years in the hospitality industry, I have never worked with a management team that is available every step of the way, whether I have a question in January or July, Brian is always there to assist & amazingly responsive (often within the hour). Throughout our stay, the staff are available all day and always willing to help out. We look forward to seeing their smiling faces every August when we return. I cannot recommend working with Iroquois Springs enough.”

“After a search for a new camp to host our 5Star XC Running camp, we decided upon Iroquois Springs as our new home in 2007.  We found the accommodations exceeded our expectations and the staff to be top notch.  Having visited many camps before deciding on Iroquois Springs, none could match the setting, food, staff and overall “feel” of Iroquois Springs.  That’s why we have been at I.S. for 11 years and have agreed on a multi-year contract.”

Iroquois Springs exemplifies that old business adage “you get what you pay for.”

We are looking forward to another great experience in August.

“We cannot thank you enough for the wonderful weekend we had at Camp! You and your staff could not have been more accommodating as we were taking our own first steps at having a retreat for our church. We were fortunate, indeed, to be at Iroquois Springs because your space, your delicious meals and friendly staff really made for an extraordinary experience for our parishioners, when we added all you offer to our well-received program content. Again, many thanks for your good cheer, great advice and understanding last-minute adaptations as the weekend unfolded.”

“Iroquois Springs was as serious about planning a perfect event as we were. Their staff was meticulous, courteous, and on-point. The facilities and grounds were top-rate. Our alumni reunion went off without a hitch and we owe much of that to this wonderful camp.”

“The St. John’s University In Addition After School Project’s experience of being at Iroquois Springs over the last five years, two weekends per year, has been characterized by your collaboration, flexibility, comfort, good humor, and readiness to meet our needs. Your staff has been superbly available and always ready to accommodate. Our group of teachers, children, and parents provide glowing feedback and look forward each camping weekend to the next one. We could not imagine a better relationship and facility. Everyone in In Addition considers Iroquois Springs as family.”

Dear Mark and Laura,

We had our wedding at Iroquois Springs two weekends ago, and we just wanted to thank you for hosting us and tell you what a wonderful time we had. The camp was ideal for what we had in mind; we were able to spend relaxing time with all of our guests throughout the weekend in a very laid-back setting, and then we had a fantastic party in the dining hall on Saturday night. Your buildings and facilities are so well-kept and beautiful.

Beyond the amazing setting, what really made our wedding weekend perfect was your incredible staff. We’ve been working with Brian for several months to plan everything, and he was helpful and accommodating every step of the way….

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect weekend! It was exactly what we wanted, and your staff really made it come together for us. I know that you generally cater to large groups, but we’d be more than happy to give a glowing reference if you have any other potential clients thinking about having a wedding or other private event at Iroquois Springs.

Thank you so much!
Kelly & Charles
