Testimonials"We began bringing our grandchildren to Star Island when they were three and four years old, That first year our four year old grandson held the door from the porch for a group of folks and when we said thank you, what a nice thing to do, he responded that this is what people on Star Island do for one another. Star Island is a place where we all learn to care for one another." - Bob Giles "Star Island has played a meaningful role in our family for the past 30 years. It is wonderful to see my kids growing up on Star, feeling joyful and independent, and getting a chance to connect deeply with their extended family as well." - Mike Giles
 “I love Star Island! It is where I unwind from the daily grind and become rejuvenated for another year.” - Carolyn Kerr
 “Star Island is such a great place. You make friendships that last forever. The waves crashing, the sunsets, the sounds of the seagulls. It takes you away from the everyday craziness and brings you back to what counts most. As we always say...‘You will come back’.” - Valerie Kimlin Cebe
 “Feeling like you've come home as soon as you arrive on island is priceless! Where else can you get a rustic all inclusive retreat at that price? You can't! Trust me, we've looked into it. Plus we couldn't find any better people or any place better to spend our family vacation.” -Sara Garthwait
Star Island is probably the most enjoyable place for a family vacation that I've seen or experienced. When you combine a gorgeous setting with innumerable activities with friendly and interesting people -- not to mention plenty of time to read or hit the snack bar -- you've got a superb vacation spot for all ages. - Dan Drummond

“My husband and I met in a 1993 Youth Conference. We were married in the chapel on Star Island in 2002 and had our son baptized there in 2009. As members of Star Gathering over the past 3 decades, we’ve made lifelong friends on island and look forward to continuing our annual spiritual vacation.” - Caroline Nigen
