Matthew Balte or just "Balte" as he is known in camp circles, grew up in Carrollton, GA and attended camp in the north Georgia mountains throughout his childhood. Balte has always credited his spiritual, mental, and emotional growth to his time at camp and it is even where he first felt a call to leadership and Christian ministry.
We are more than just a summer camp! Many activities at Camp Rockfish are designed for fun, teamwork, and walking away with memories and insights that will last a lifetime. Specialty camp-wide games are also played at Rockfish, such as Reverse Capture the Flag, Monkey-Tail Ball, Mission Impossible, and the Great Amazing Race.
Do you enjoy the outdoors? We are happy to host our guests, but one thing we do need is our high trained quality staff. This position is part-time and needs-based. Do you want to work with school age children in an outdoors after school position? This position is part time and runs during the regular school year for hoke and Cumberland counties.
In the years since Rockfish Camp and Retreat Center has been established as a summer camp, many things have changed, however one has remained the same; Camp Rockfish is a place where the Lord is alive. From the moment you walk onto campus, you not only see the buildings, playgrounds, and high adventure area, but you also sense the genuine presence of God ready to encourage, comfort, and strengthen those who are receptive.

Jim, camp director, is wonderful with words and communication. I truly believe he is in the business for soul transformation however, this was the worst camp experience we have ever experienced as a family. The leadership team at this camp unfortunately mishandled what should've been a very simple situation which resulted in my daughter and others leaving camp early (my daughter has been attending summer camps all over NC for 6 years and loves it - this has been our only poor experience). While Jim attempted to apologize for the situation, the damage was done. The worst part of this whole situation

My daughter has gone all summer to the day camp. She begs to go back on the weekends because she loves it so much. They spend the day outdoors, hiking, exploring and playing. They also go to the pool and river which is perfect for the summer heat. The whole staff is so sweet and amazing with the kids. I couldn't recommend this enough. I love that there is this "getaway" so close to home where you can enjoy the outdoors.

Wonderful atmosphere. Great staff. Christian operated.loads of fun. lots of activities. We stayed there while attending Pilgrimage my 14 year old wants to go back for summer camp. Cabins hold like 8 people. We had heat. Bathroom situation was not ideal, unless you've lived in a dorm. Nevertheless it was workable. Lots and lots of people there for Pilgrimage. Just can't say enough about the positives at camp rockfish!
