Testimonials

I have two children who both attended Kamp Kohut. They will both tell you that it was the best experience of their life. They have made lifelong friends who live all over the United States and a few foreign countries as well. Kamp Kohut was an opportunity for our Houston, Texas kids to escape the heat and be in a totally different environment from our local camps where they could have attended with school friends. They both blossomed at camp and I truly believe that this particular camp offers a very wholesome, down to earth, self confidence building experience. Any child would be very lucky to attend Kamp Kohut with it’s amazing staff and excellent programming.
