Camp Fern

Five stars isn’t enough! I spent 9 years attending as a camper and another 5 as a staff member, and it was a huge influence on my life and who I am today. The camp is small enough that every staff member knows the name of each camper– a huge plus, because your child won’t get lost in the shuffle. Sessions lengths currently available are 1-​week, 2-​weeks (both coed for ages 6 — 12) and 2 4-​week sessions (gender specific for ages 6 — 15), although I would strongly recommend the 4-​week sessions, as your child will have more time to develop new skill sets and reinforce their friendships. A month sounds long, but I promise it goes by so fast! Cabin sizes average about 10 kids with 2 – 3 counselors. A large variety of daily activities are offered, as well special seminars and trips that campers may sign up for. Most campers return year after year, and I have to say that the friendships I forged at Fern are some of my most lasting and enduring ones. If you are looking for a summer camp for your child, this is absolutely one to look into. It’s not the cheapest one out there, but it is ABSOLUTELY worth every penny.
