    Dream vacation in a Chateau!
    Traveling to France in October was perfect. Weather was great, some cloudy days, but overall mild temps. This was an unforgettable trip and I continue to recommend it to every woman I know.

    Better than I hoped for (and I hoped for a lot)!
    I had a magical time at Camp Chateau in September. The weather was perfect, the activities were well-scheduled and enjoyable, the food was delicious (really - I have still having serious Chef Oriane withdrawal), the staff was fab and my fellow campers even more incredible.

    Dream come true
    I went solo and had a fantastic experience at the Chateau, memories to last a lifetime. It is everything they have marketed it to be and more. I would say my favourite thing was reading in the yard under a beautiful tree. However that does not diminish all the other wonderful experiences.
