We really enjoyed our stay at Camp Luke! We had a group of 6, and the cabin felt very spacious and comfortable. It was also very well-equipped with kitchen supplies, towels, etc. The location was very nice since it felt so private and quiet. We especially loved using the kayaks/lifejackets in the stream right by the cabin!
