Camp Conrad Weiser reviews

My son attended camp last summer and loved it. When he came home I heard so much about "Ben" the counselor. He told me all the activities he tried each day. I liked that the younger children stayed with their group.

I loved this camp so much! It was a huge part of my childhood and have made a lot of great memories and friends after going there.

Wonderful camp, beautiful setting, and awesome counselors. My daughter loves going every year and cries when she has to leave! The friendships made and life skills learned are invaluable.

I went to CCW for 11 years and I had a wonderful time as a camper I would love to come back as a counselor! CCW is an amazing camp with the opportunity to meet campers and staff from all over the world and make friendships that lasts lifetime I still have friendship from camp since I was 7 I'm now 19! This camp made a huge impact on my life and I don't know what kind of person I would be if my parents hadn't sent me to this camp! This camp was truly the best summers of my life!

Best summer camp around! This camp is a great way to spend the summer outdoors and learning new experiences, making life long friendships and connecting to the outdoors.

It is a little on the expensive side but I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at CCW.

This camp has an amazing ability to make me feel relaxed. I've never felt more at peace than when I am on this property. It's a combination of everything, but mostly it's the attitude of the staff ... they're welcoming and helpful, understanding and funny, just plain old good people. It honestly seems to make their day when you have a good time! There are lots of things to do, or nothing at all, across so many acres you just can't cover them all.

I love CCW! The atmosphere there is so encouraging and inspiring! I can be myself and make friends I would have never met otherwise. I feel self-confident by the time I leave, and loved all year!

CCW is a wonderful camp! It is nestled up on a woodsy hill. There are cabins with cozy bunk beds. The staff and counselors are amazing with the kids. It is a very warm and inviting atmosphere that encourages good qualities and values. As far as value for money I can say that they have a wonderful scholarship program that helps families that would have difficulty let their children have a wonderful summer experience. My daughter made friends from France and Spain that were at CCW for the campers exchange. I can say that when I am finished with my degree and get my new career I would be honored to contribute to the camp to help others who are in financial need to give their child such a wonderful experience! Even my shy guy did wonderfully! One of his counselors immediately found out what his interests were and set him at ease with me leaving. I highly recommend both CCW and Byndenwood.

CCW has been the most brilliant experience for my daughter. Our family LOVES Camp Conrad Weiser!!!

I'll confess to having little experience of other camps for comparison - but CCW is an incredible world unto it's own, peopled by some of the most impressive young people I've ever had the honor of knowing. Truly a worthwhile enterprise in every sense - if more could experience it, far more people would prioritize the summer camp experience in the lives of their children.

A great place to be challenged and meet new friends

My 3 summers spent working at CCW were some of the best memories to date. The 1st summer there, my "cabin" was actually a large tent...very rustic, no electricity. But so fun! And most of the kids loved it! The bathrooms, or KYBO's, were VERY rustic w/no showers. You had to hike across camp to get to a shower. Over the years they eventually updated all sleeping quarters to very nice cabins. The bathroom facilities were also updated and extremely nice. This camp encourages both staff & campers to have the best summer of their life in a safe manner. Lots of fun activities, adequate down time, friends to last forever. Very much a camp-camp...not a fancy "vacation resort" type. LOVED IT!

Amazing camp Beautiful facilities and attentive,fun staff.

My oldest daughter went for the first time this year (2013), and she will definitely be back. The staff was kind, the programs engaging, and the facilities were gorgeous.

I loved the camp but it was just a little too small. It had only a short list of activities and the food was god awful the reason I gave it a lot of 5 s is because despite the food I had a lot of fun while therei made a lot of friends and became close with many girls. My counselors were wonderful and the cabins beautiful. They had a pool with a water slide but I never got to use it. Another thing I don't like is that it is not on a lake I didn't like that we had to drive there every day for sailing. I noticed that some of the long term campers there were a bit more superior and I ended up sitting with other first timers at all of the meals

I attended this camp for 4 years and LOVED every minute. Their facilities are top notch and activities are amazing. When I was there tradition was each counselor had a nickname and the campers tried to figure out what their real names were. I loved this tradition and only managed to find out 1 name! A true summer camp experience.

Greatest camp I've ever been to, and I've been to 4. I have never been happier at a place before in my life. It made me into a better, more confident person who accepts herself.

I attended Camp Conrad Weiser for 3 summers and am returning this summer for a 4th. I live about an hour and 15 minutes away from the camp but people attend from all over the world. Many counselors are from the United Kingdom; a few from Spain, France, Australia and scattered countries accross Africa and Europe. Also some counslors attend from the great USA. Last summer there was a lot (maybe 15)campers from Spain. Most of the campers attend from Pennsylvania and surrounding states. There are different activities that can be catagorized as: adventure (ropes courses, rock wall, mountain boarding and biking); shooting sports (22's, trap, archery, and bb's) sports(basketball,soccer,tennis, volleyball and frisbee) arts and crafts(wood burning,rotating crafts,jewelry making)water sports (swimming, canoeing, kayaking, boating). The activites are chosen every Sunday, and some activities have a minimum age (such as trap and 22's, high ropes course, canoeing, kayking, and boating

I worked at CCW in 2000 and 2003. Two of the best summers of my life. Great staff from all over the world and campers who were amazing fun. I wish I could go back! Wonderful place!

I've been going to Camp Conrad Weiser for three summers and I loved every single one!!!
