Sleepaway Camps near Long Island
72 camps · 53 family reviews · price levels $ to $$$
Long Island families mostly send their kids 'up the mountains' — to the Catskills, the Poconos, and the Berkshires, roughly two to four hours' drive from Nassau and Suffolk. Most camps run bus pickup from Long Island on opening day. Built by a Long Island camp mom, this list covers the camps LI families are actually reviewing — real experiences, the good and the honest.
Ranked by honest reviews from real parents, campers, and alumni. Rankings can't be bought or edited by anyone (including us) — camps without reviews yet appear at the end.
