Anett Kiesling and Lirio Galvangoicoechem of Providence, RI stated the following:

"Jim Creek has been an excellent experience. The quiet room, the fireplace within the Eagle's Nest Lounge, but next time we are taking one of the cabins. We were very impressed by the morning, the most quiet for a long time. We were absolutely motivated to pray and to ask God for the welcoming of our marriage. Thanks to you."

» Jim Lucas
Jim Lucas declared, the following, "Away from home can be a bit rough... The folks at the lodge facility have made it home for me. The accommodations are not only clean, but quite complete. This has been a very good time. I have stayed many places within the last fifty years, but none will compete with your lodge. You all have been very helpful and more like old friends. Thank you for a most enjoyable visit. I look forward to more time with you."

» Another guest testimonial
"We have been coming here for about six or seven years now and are astounded each year by all the changes. My family and I have lost our share of monstrous trout in the lake, but it always provides for some great stories around the campfire. This is a wonderful place and we'll always come back!"

» Howard and Mary Fisher of Gualala, California
Expressed by Howard and Mary Fisher of Gualala, California, “In just one day we saw robins, (blue) jays, a wild white duck with black and rust colored head and seven ducklings, black headed chickadees, some medium sized brownish/black birds that were industrious eaters, and a yellow winged blackbird. Some were seen at our RV spot and others we saw at Upper Twin Lake. The walk to the Lower Twin Lake was so quiet and filled with many kinds of mosses, ferns, and mushroom type growths. We also saw what I think was Trillium, a three leafed, three petal wild flower in pink and white. Another wild flower reminded me of home. It had heart shaped leaves and a small pansy type bloom of yellow. We just missed stepping on a two inch slug; thankfully for us and the slug. We saw his brothers with a more striped skin. We took our binoculars and should have taken our bird book – I think we need to buy a wild flower one too!

The MWR Manager showed us the newly furnished lodge rooms. We were impressed with the new furniture. It was “real log lodge” style.

All the staff and Camp Hosts answered questions ranging from laundry to tours in the area. Thanks for your friendly help. We love Jim Creek!”

» Betty & Donnie Woods
Betty & Donnie Woods, as well as their guest Rose Barretta, are the first to stay in the new RV Sites. The three had an enjoyable stay and commented, "This is a great place for camping. It's convenient but rustic. The staff is excellent, very helpful and friendly. This place is NICE; I like it. It gives you the feeling of being outdoors without having to drive several hours to get here. It has all the great things to do, like fishing, hiking, plus the fitness center, etc. It's a super great place."

» Another guest testimonial
"What a beautiful location. It is quiet and has nice facilities. There is something here for the whole family. All the staff is real helpful and friendly."

» Another guest testimonial
The icing on the cake was the staff at MWR Jim Creek; they truly are here to serve. This is an organization that has perfected its customer service.

I’ll come back and enjoy this recreational facility again and I recommend it to anyone interested in fun.”

» Dan and Michelle Inman of Silverdale, Washington
Dan and Michelle Inman of Silverdale, Washington commented, “Just wanted to tell you guys what a great job you do. My family and I always have a pleasant stay when we come to Jim Creek.

The Staff is wonderful, the campsites are terrific and the experience is always the greatest. Once we had a problem at our site and the staff promptly took care of us. Not when they had a chance later, but they actually stopped what they were doing and took care of it right away. Now that’s Customer Service!

We look forward to returning in the spring.”

» Charlotte and Gregg Deloki (and family), USS Georgia
Dear MWR at Jim Creek:

When we made our reservations for a campsite at Jim Creek, we weren’t expecting a lot. Boy, were we pleasantly surprised.

First, the staff at Jim Creek is exceptional. They were informative, not only of what Jim Creek offers, but of what the surrounding area (offers) as well. They were also very warm and friendly.

Secondly, the Jim Creek facilities offered more in the way of entertainment and recreation than we ever imagined. Our four children completely enjoyed the Game Room with the space walk and free arcade games.

The whole family enjoyed the free movie night on Saturday night.

Lastly, the actual campsite and cabins are the nicest we have ever seen. They are impeccably clean and well kept. The way the camp and cabin sites are set up even offers some privacy; something not always found when you go camping.

All in all, our weekend stay at Jim Creek was one of the most enjoyable and relaxing get-aways we have had. Thank you goes to all at Jim Creek.

Sincerely,
Charlotte and Gregg Deloki (and family)
USS Georgia
