An amazing experience for my daughter's first summer away from home. Girls make friendships with everyone in this intimate environment. No electricity and no nonsense! Fritz and Christine know what they are doing. They have the highest return rate 99.9% for a good reason!!
fernwood it is my home away from home and nothing can ever change that. everything and everyone is just amazing and i will be so beyond sad to leave my last summer :( the friendships developed here are unbreakable and the bonds made here are remarkable. living simply is a main part at fernwood and always will be and the traditions that macky and her parents have started will live on forever. people think that living in a boy-free environment with no electricity is impossible, but it isnt, that's what makes fernwood so special. fernwood teaches one to be responsible, to respect others, and to be self-sufficient. leadership skills are developed and everyone learns to live in a community together. fernwood has taught me to overcome challenges not only with friends, but the challenges that we are faced with in our everyday lives. going to fernwood has allowed me to find out who i really am. CHERISH YOUR TIME HERE. SERIOUSLY. it has shaped my life and who i am today. it is just AMAZING :)
I have been going to this camp for 4 years and it has been one of if not the best experience of my life. It lets you explore and get out of your comfort zone in a way where you don't feel pressured but you really want to. The girls who go there are really great and most of them come back and make really great counselors. The activities are the best and teach you things you would never have learned to do before. For instance I would have never learned marksmanship but now I have discovered I am quite good at it. Camp Fernwood is a very warm environment filled with spirt and tradition. The moment you step foot at Fernwood you know your part of the Fernwood family. Every year I can not wait until I go back to Fernwood. Although i know it's not a perfect fit for everyone, this is for people who enjoy sprit, friendship, fun and the outdoors.
this camp is not a good camp. they let the girls play with guns and they dont have electricity. "its fine you dont need lights after 8:00" ummm yes you do.
Fernwood is without a doubt the BEST camp on Earth! Its seriously amazing and anyone who says it isn't is INSANNNNE!!!! Fernwood has the most fun and fabulous activities, nicest consulars, prettiest lake, and campers that will be your friend forever! Also, the food is awesome awesome and cookouts on the waterfront are the best. F-E-R-N-W-double o- D BOOM! WOOOOO I LOVE CF!!!!
