It's Magic! Caring staff, and a true summer of amazing friendships and expereinces.

Our experience with Camp Ramah in the Berkshires has been wonderful. The sense of community and Jewish spirit (ruach) is unmatched—especially Friday night Shabbat services by the lake, which truly set the tone for the entire week. The counselors and camper care team do an exceptional job creating an inclusive, supportive bunk environment where kids build lasting friendships and grow in independence. The programming strikes a great balance between classic camp fun (lakefront boating, sports, arts) and meaningful Jewish living and traditions. Communication with parents throughout the session is thoughtful and responsive. Like many traditional, historic camps, some bunks and facilities are older and rustic, but they are well-maintained and add to the authentic camp feel. Overall, it's an incredible environment that our family couldn't recommend more highly.

A wonderful place for girls to learn and grow!

A truly wonderful camp! Blissful location in northern Wisconsin with a large beautiful lake (and pool), charming cabins for 6-8 girls, low counselor-camper ratio, plentiful activities, and more. Dedicated and energetic camp directors--Staci and Corey. A wonderful place for girls to learn and grow!

Peconic Dunes camp

My son attended Peconic Dunes Camp, and unfortunately our experience was not positive. The most concerning issue was the handling of his prescription medication. Although the Health Director is responsible for holding and administering all medications, a dose was missed, and my 11‑year‑old was told it was his responsibility to remember to take it. When he expressed that he might forget, a counselor responded, “I don’t care.” His medication cannot be skipped, and this lapse created a genuine health risk.There were also inconsistencies with camp policies. The website does not list any restrictions on camper‑provided snacks for the overnight program, yet my son’s snacks were removed, including items clearly labeled peanut‑free. He was also reprimanded for normal, age‑appropriate behavior (flatulence at bedtime), and this was used as justification to take away snacks he brought from home.Additionally, the packing list included an electric or battery‑operated fan, but when my son brought one, he was told he could not use it despite having an outlet near his bed. This added to the confusion and lack of clarity around expectations.Overall, the combination of missed medication, inconsistent enforcement of rules, and dismissive interactions left me feeling that the camp did not provide the safe, supportive environment we expected. I hope the administration reviews these concerns seriously so future campers have a better experience.

We love Camp Starlight

My rising 4th and 6th graders absolutely love Camp Starlight! It’s a wonderfully well-rounded co-ed camp, with everything from traditional sports and water sports to plays and so much more. The camp is run extremely well by the owner, David Miller and his family, who is incredibly hands-on, attentive, and detail-oriented. I was a little nervous that my city kid son, who doesn’t play sports as much as some of his suburban friends, might have a hard time adapting but he ended up having the BEST time. My daughter loves it just as much. They’ve both made so many great friends, and it’s been so special for us to pass down a camp tradition that we (and my mom and sister)loved as kids. We couldn’t recommend Camp Starlight more!

Friendly/Warm (girls camp)

Camp Robindel is the most warm and friendly girls camp. Jolly and Cori the directors hire staff that are so warm and capable and every single thing at camp is thought out meticulously. Their goal is to make each child feel successful about themselves with whatever they choose do at camp. My girls were surrounded by warmth all summer long and the communication from the camp to the parents is wonderful. It is definitely a one of a kind camp! Highly recommend! Strong 10/10 overall! Best. Camp. Around.

Much better camps out there, don’t settle!

Our family left this camp feeling disappointed. From the outside it seems like a fun, traditional summer camp, but our experience was very different. The biggest concern was how the camp handled children who needed a little more support. It didn’t feel like staff were adequately prepared to work with kids who learn, socialize, or regulate differently. Rather than taking the time to understand individual children, it often felt like they were singled out instead of supported. Bullying and unkind behavior also didn’t seem to be addressed consistently. There were times when issues that should have been handled more seriously appeared to be brushed aside, which was concerning as a parent. Overall, the camp felt disorganized. Communication wasn’t always clear, staffing often seemed stretched thin, and there was an inconsistent experience from one situation to the next. It also gave the impression that some campers received different treatment than others, which made the environment feel less fair and inclusive. If you’re looking for a highly structured camp with strong leadership, clear communication, and staff who are experienced supporting a wide range of children, I would encourage you to ask a lot of questions before enrolling. Every family’s experience may be different, but ours was not a positive one, and we would not choose to return.

Outstanding Camp Experience with Safety and Communication You Can Trust

As a camp parent, I can't say enough great things about Pocono Springs Camp. My child absolutely loves it, and the five-week session is the perfect length. Safety is clearly their top priority, they are incredibly well staffed, which gives us so much peace of mind knowing the campers are always well supervised. Communication with parents is excellent. We receive regular updates, and anytime we've needed to reach someone at camp, we've never had any trouble getting in touch. My children also rave about the food, which is a huge bonus! The variety of activities is another reason we keep coming back. It's not just sports. Campers get to choose afternoon electives, giving them the opportunity to explore new interests and try so many different things. Pocono Springs has been an amazing experience for our family, and we highly recommend it.

Everything a summer camp should be!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Camp Lindenmere is truly something special. The owners and leadership team are some of the most honest, caring, communicative, and genuine people we’ve ever met. They truly put the children and their staff first, and they’ve created a camp that feels like one big family. Before camp even begins, every camper makes a commitment to be kind, be a good friend, and help create an inclusive community. That speaks volumes about the values of Camp Lindenmere. It isn’t just something they sign before arriving—it’s something the camp genuinely lives by throughout the entire summer, and you see it reflected every day. The amount of thought that goes into every child is incredible. They carefully consider bunk placements, friendships, personalities, and counselor pairings to create the best possible experience. If something isn’t working, they’re willing to make changes because their priority is always what’s best for the children. The campus is beautiful, the air-conditioned facilities are exceptional, and it’s obvious they continually reinvest in the camp. The food is outstanding—they even bring in the restaurant management team and chefs from their Aspen restaurant to oversee the dining program. The Choice Program is exceptional, the weekly trips are incredible, and the nightly blogs keep parents informed and connected. What stands out most is that everything feels intentional. Every decision is made with the children’s best interests in mind, and that culture is felt throughout the entire camp. Part of me wants to keep Lindenmere a secret because it feels like such a special place, but families deserve to know about it. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Camp Lindenmere and couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Friends for life

Our daughter wants up Pontiac for a total of 10 years. Eight as a camper and two as a counselor. The camp is nicely run by two brothers and their families. Second generation, which is nice. Our daughter made a fabulous group of friends who are still her besties.
