Camp Live Oak is a hidden gem in our South Fl. Community, Ken and his staff are completely involved with the kids. Great, safe space for your child!

My son has been going to Camp Live Oak since he was 5 and loves it. He is now turning 10 and is still interested in attending and in fact aspires to be a counselor there one day! Not only are the programs wholesome and engaging, but it’s the staff that makes it so special. The camp director, Ken Evans is so personally committed to making this camp a great experience for each child. Every counselor is first aid qualified with teaching credentials, but the best part is they love kids. Every year they add new programs to keep the youngsters coming back so that they feel like they are graduating into a new level. My son participated in the the mountain biking and the bubble makers introduction to scuba last year and wants to do it again. What we love as parents is that they get to have the sleep away camp experience without leaving us alone for the summer 🙂

My boys (9 and 11) attended summer camp at both Camp Live Oak locations this summer. They went to Fishing Camp at Dania Beach and absolutely loved it! They got to fish everyday and also participate in other activities and group games everyday. At the end of the week, they went on a charter boat! They also participated in educational days with IGFA that were very helpful. At Birch State Park, they made multiple art projects and had fishing, canoeing and archery sessions. They are both beautiful locations and the staff were awesome! I would highly recommend this camp!

Such an AMAZING camp for all ages, this was our first year and we wish we had started years ago! The Leaders In Training “LIT” Teen Eco program is such a great opportunity for teens, they learn to work as Jr. Counselors with younger kids and still get to enjoy group activities daily with their age group. The Staff are all so welcoming and hands on… true mentorship! Great way to earn Volunteer Service Hours while having fun! The day to day activities were so much fun… beach outings, sports, team building, archery, outdoor art, fishing, canoeing, survival training such as shelter building and best of all Shark Tagging with NSU! The best outdoor and Marine Eco Camp!!!!

This is not just a summer camp with GREAT staff and programs ! Wonderful trips, overnight stay in July, interesting speakers, swimming, fishing, coanoeing and kayaking-alllll these happen to be in Hugh Taylor Birch state park in the shadows of wonderful gigantic trees with turtles around! For the second year we feel part of the Camp Live Oak family. My son was here for the whole summer season last year and when this year we thought what to do: there was no doubt for us that Camp Live Oak is the best option. David was supposed to finish the camp last week, but he asked to prolong it for another week. In spite of the fact that we live 1 hr drive from the camp my son makes these trips to the camp with great enthusiasm and love. Mr. Ken, Mrs Cita, Mrs Kristen, Mrs Susanna and the rest Camp Live Oak team, thank you for everything you do! With Love and Gratitude, Irina and David

Both of my kids have gone to Camp Live Oak for many years now and they love it!!! Spring, winter, and summer sessions are all amazing! They have learned and experienced so much from attending camp that most kids would ever dream about! Not only do they learn about nature and science…but they have fun doing it…snorkeling, fishing, canoeing, archery….and the list goes on and on! The camp director as well as all of the staff are great with the kids and are hands on with everything they do…its not a daycare like most other camps we have looked at…this is definitely a find and our family looks forward to camp every year!!! Oh and did I mention all the new friends my kids have made?? Friends from all over the world…its just amazing!!! I give this camp a 100% A+

We highly recommend the Salty Anglers program at Live Oak. Before Salty Anglers our kids never caught anything. Now, each day they come home telling us about the fish they caught and released. They teach them everything from setting the hook to reeling in their catch. Our eight-year-old daughter caught four fish yesterday. The Salty Anglers counselors Ms. Lee, Ms. Elle, and Ms. Callie are so nurturing and responsive. The founder is also very hands-on and attentive. I only wish we would have found this camp sooner. If you haven’t done the Salty Anglers program at Live Oak, you’re missing out.
