About Rock-N-Water
Rock-N-Water is a group of Christians who want to impact campers of all ages with the joy of God’s Living Word. Our desire is that you might come to know the joy of our loving Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and to pass on God’s love to others with excitement. We focus our programs on biblical principles, and use the help of nature, friendship, and adventurous outdoor challenges to develop eternal transformational change.
Located an hour East of Sacramento in the Sierra Nevada Foothills of California, our staff travel from across the United States to minister to your students. Cross trained as camp counselors, youth ministers, and high adventure guides, they positively transform the lives of youth and adults alike. Our staff savor the opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus in your students’ lives.
Every Rock-N-Water trip is built around the idea that spending time in the outdoors, through fun and challenging adventures, is a great way to help youth and adults to experience real personal growth in their Christian faith. Each camp includes full action packed days of adventurous outdoor exploration with our summer counselors. And each adventure includes time intentionally set aside in the middle of each day to give you ample opportunity to just stop, and think, and pray. At night we gather together around the campfire for a time of worship and a more indepth biblical devotional.

My son enjoyed it very much.
His only comment, he missed his peanut butter sandwich and snacks with peanuts due to other kids allergies :(
Not much the camp can do there.

Amazing! Lovely in all ways. Activities were fun and the counselors were so enthusiast and loved to be there! Truly unlike any other camps around- very Christ-centered and inspiring.
Sherine Aldrin –
It was probably one of the best four days and experiences in my life! The team building, canyoneering, and especially rafting was so much fun!This camp definitely challenges you and might take you out of your comfort zone. I was extremely scared of going, but when I arrived I felt at peace just because everyone was so welcoming. The leaders were so much fun and willing to be with you, and that made the experience better everyday! One of the highlights of the trip for me was the food :D. It tasted SO good and I loved how things like the dill sauce, salsa, and more were homemade. The campfires were another big highlight! While we were singing, you could really feel the Holy Spirit moving, and the singers had voices like angels:). If I could, I would love to go again!
Eric Oh –
It was real awesome

Peter Lavorato –
It was a great time. The physical activities were challenging and safe. The Rock n Water staff was exceptional. Knew what they were doing and cared about each student and staff member. The food was exceptional and not boring. I have a tough time sleeping on hard surfaces so I didn’t get the sleep I needed. Not sure how to solve that.
Thanks
Pete
Zoe Wu –
Wonderful.
Please change the packing list a bit: specify what kind of water shoes count as water shoes (for example crocs are not water shoes), and maybe say to pack more than one swimsuit because that’s what we mostly will wear.
PLEASE GIVE BACON
BACON BACON BACON
And never take out that crunchy cookie type thing + fruit + whipped cream dessert I loved it so much I felt like crying.
Please take care of those trees with spiky leaves! Have some camping spaces free of spiky leaved-trees so I don’t die of blood or skin loss or overly puncturing.
WE NEED BACON.
Also please make that dinner bell louder.
MORE WORSHIP I LOVED IT
but maybe talk to the people of whatever place first to see what songs your campers know best
Give us more preparation for skit night.
PROVIDE BACON.
For teambuilding, encourage us kids to talk to other kids we might not know so much.
After our canyoneering trip, we got granola bars, but there was no such award after our rafting adventure. WE NEED MORE GRANOLA BARS.
FEED US BACON.
At the beginning of our time at Rock and Water, maybe introduce us to ALL the guides. Like a quick five minutes of Hi I’m Bob and I’m with the black team!
Make the blue flag blue it was purple.
HAVE BACON.
More free time! More rest time! More shower time!
BACON BACON BACON BACON BACON
did I mention bacon?
don’t judge me
ABSOLUTELY ENCOURAGE LIFE VESTS FOR THE LADYBUG CANYONEERING IT WAS SUCH A SUCH A BLESSING (have the option of NOT having a life vest not offering life vests) ESPECIALLY to those boys those boys were so proud of themselves until they started drowning
If I could do one thing over at that trip I would do the rafting pictures again please specify really clearly which camera I’m supposed to glare at.
In some way (I know this is probably impossible) enhance your swings so it’s easier to throw it up to the next person.
Have morning devotions or something.
More Jesus time in general.
Matthew Nisbet –

Rock-N-Water Christian camps offer the best combination of well-guided, fun, stretching, and safe programming and the ability for groups to also customize their experience to match their respective mission and values. All of the staff are exceptionally skilled and competent and thanks to Rock-N-Water’s robust personnel development process, all staff members are very professional and aligned to the timeless Rock-N-Water culture that has been ever-presence for as long as I’ve been coming since 2015.
Katy Langley –

David Howe –
Positive. It was the right blend of R&W staff interaction with our students and school staff. The skits were fun. Great food. Some variation in the menu would be appreciated i.e. too many burritos :) Activities well organized and appropriate for our group. Staff were very professional. Location was ideal with good free-time activities also.
Kristyn Powell –
Our son loved the white water rafting and had fun! Thank you for making it a very memorable experience!
Amalia Peterson –
My experience at Rock N Water was amazing. I loved how welcoming it was and how we were all pushed outside our comfort zone. I loved that we were able to sleep under the stars and all of the water activities. I would definitely recommend a friend to go to this amazing, adventurous trip.
Would it be possible for you to send me a sticker? I lost the one I was given. ;-(

Thank you for the best time ever!!
Elienai Moore –
Great fun and guides. Rafting and hiking was a blast.
Joshua Diaz-Christians –
I was really nervous about camp since a lot of things I have not done before and are outside my comfort zone.
The staff at RocknWater did a really good job at making me feel comfortable, safe, and I was able to go at a pace that worked for me.
They made sure that I was given all my meals and provided me with extra things I wanted to eat that were not on the menu.
My experience ended up being a very good one thanks to the staff at Rocknwater.
Ivette Arriaga –
My experience was amazing because I got to socialize with friends and do amazing activities that I have never done before! I wish to go back soon!
Reigne Reario –
My experience was amazing. I became closer to other people, and I got to know the people in my group. I also would like to thank the guides who helped me and the others in my team, especially when we were canyoneering. Everyone there were super welcoming and for my first time outdoor camping, it was better than my expectations. All in all, Rock-n-Water was great physically, spiritually, and mentally.

What an incredible trip! This is my second time going to Rock N Water for a three day camp with 140+ high school freshman. I am continually impressed with the Rock N Water staff. They all have a wealth of knowledge and experience and you always know you are in good hands. It’s incredible watching them work simultaneously with students who love white water rafting and those filled with trepidation. They are great at bringing students together, encouraging team work, and fostering student leadership. They truly embody what it means to live out the Gospel in every day life! No matter what activity you do–rafting, team building, canyoneering, etc–you will have a wonderful time. I can’t wait to return next year!
Scott Meadows –
Yes, it is a great trip. I think the only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars was that 3 meals all used tortillas. While the food was good, it would be nice to mix it up a bit with the evening meals and breakfast. Also, tough to have Sun Butter for lunches on canyoneering and at team building. The guides were excellent, and the rafting and canyoneering were super fun. Well worth it for anyone looking for a good Christian Camp.
Brock Quant –
I thought all the activities were really fun. It was a little too dusty/dry in camp, but I don’t really like camping anyway.
Emma McCormack –
It was really fun and they really encouraged you to do something different

My daughter did not want to go to Rock-N-Water, but she did, and when she got home, she missed it terribly and wished she could go back. Thank you for making her time memorable. She is not exactly the most athletic girl, but she did so well hiking, she was assigned to be a leader of her hiking group. Again, thank you!
Akshitha Venquideshe –
it was great. I had a really good time. the only issue was the food. we had burritos practically ever day and it kinda sucked.
Andrew Aslan –
it was so lit that I went crazy yalll are so cool and it was super fun and challenging
Abigail Leong –
The activities were fun with friends. But, there was not enough tent space so had to sleep out in the open, which was very cold and we could not sleep very well each night.
Evan Hall –
I really liked the white water rafting because our guide was really cool and nice to us. I also really liked the canyoneering because it was fun to climb up rocks and swim in the river.

I had a good time at Rock-N-Water, but some of the games were a bit to young for freshmen.But otherwise it was fun
Rob Starke –
Our Freshmen had a great time, and we are looking forward to returning next year.
Howell Shaw –
I felt God’s presence, power, and majesty in the River, and how are lives are so much like a rafting trip: some moments are peaceful and serene, others full of turmoil, but with a good guide, we can make it through to the end!
Christine Jensen –
I had such a terrific time! I am not an outdoorsy person by any stretch of the imagination but felt challenged but not overwhelmed. Students seemed to really enjoy it. Guides and everyone who worked at the camp were amazing. They were qualified, patient, and great at drawing the quieter students out of their shells. I cannot wait to return!
Victoria Hamblin –
Loved the activities! Never bored!
Kaitlyn Nguyen –
Fun experience, the guide was friendly and I enjoyed the time with friends in a non school setting
Rose Hewitt –

Jaiden Velasquez –
Such an amazing time with fantastic people!
Justin Proulx –
It was fantastic! It went way above my expectations and far surpassed what I thought the trip was going to be. A lot of that was the quality of the staff and guides on the trip, but the atmosphere and structure of the trip were also high quality as well.
Melinda Lynn –
My daughter had a fabulous time. She loved the adventure hike and the skits at the bin fire
Wade Aiello –
My son loved it. Shower situation was hard but otherwise it was good.
Christine Guerra –
Our time at Rock N Water was wonderful. I was impressed by the intentionality of the guides and other staff members who loved our students so well. They did a great job of interacting with our students and pointing them to prayer and our Lord, as well as helping them to see the importance of sitting and being in nature and in God’s creation. Thank you for serving us so well!
Kristen Tasker –
Excellent!!!
Craig Tomlin –
I felt like the staff was completely engaged in our group and contributed to our amazing experience. I highly recommend this trip as a fantastic team building event as well as a life challenging and life changing event. Awesome team and awesome company!!!
David Howe –
Friendly and qualified staff who worked well with our large group to accomplish our goals.
Matt Nisbet –
Great camp; great service; great outdoor experiences. Too repetitive on menus, though they were good quality.
Dorothy Tang –
Loved the experience with the campgrounds, guides, and water rafting. Food and facilities were good too. May ask for more challenging team building activities (ex: two posts with ropes interwoven randomly, goal is to bring each member across without touching the ropes, can only go through each hole twice max.; team of 7, bring your team across a distance but can only have 3 feet touch the ground; …other ideas?) Not sure how much body contact is appropriate for our school, so the given ones we had were good this past week. Thanks!
Hanna Sanquist –
I was highly impressed with the quality of staff the was provided to us. With a group our size it would have been easy to have a mixture of quality but every single staff member I spoke with was outstanding. The staff made the trip for me. In the future I would love to see the rnw staff more involved in campfire time but completely understand that our group is something different that you typically do.
Kate Hendricks –
Rock-n-Water was an amazing experience for me! Our guides were super awesome and helpful!
Amy Crayne –
I loved it! I went probably 7 or 8 years ago and I still talk about and remember how much fun I had at Rock n water. I actually fell out of the boat on the white water rafting adventure and my brothers and I still laugh about it. Keep doing what you guys are doing!
Jessica Calvert –
Everyone loved the activities and the camp leaders – Stewart and Meghan. The food was yummy.It was awesome learning to trust more on God and others when facing difficult tasks.
Leah Hipps –
It was fantastic! The guides were so patient and were great with our group. All the kids in my group loved the camp, definitely hoping to come back!
Karina Vuksta –
Coming into Rock N Water, you automatically feel welcome. The staff and leaders there are always so positive and uplifting and you can see Jesus shine through each and every one of them! I was really glad Rock n Water was so organized because I never felt like I had nothing to do, I was constantly moving. The activities there put me through lots of challenges, helping me grow to trust the Lord more through each one. Even with trusting the Lord through my whole trip, I also felt very safe and in good hands with the staff. Thank you Rock n Water for giving me so wonderful memories I will never forget, and I am definitely looking forward to come next year!
Bryce Palmer –
It felt pretty great
Annalisa Dealba –
The experience I had at the camp was amazing, the guides were awesome and super friendly and canyoneering and white water rafting were so much fun. I felt that God really worked through the guides and the camp to connect to us.
