Camp Strawderman reviews

I went to camp 57 years ago.. and still love my memories of Camp Strawderman!!I can still smell the fresh air in the mountains, taste the cold natural spring water and remember all the wonderful people I met while at my 'summer home'. We used to have a song about Barka .. !! Priceless ..!! So glad my parents gave me the opportunity to experience this life changing camp.

Camp Strawderman is AMAZING! With small classes, every girl gets their own personal attention. You can pick and choose what activities you want to do and it's so fun!

I was a camper at Strawderman for 8 years in the 70's. Now my daughter is in her 4th summer. It is so much more than it's idyllic setting tucked away in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. It's the ideals that are taught that last a lifetime and help to build strong character. It's like no other place in the world.

There are not enough words to show the values and life lessons I learned at Strawderman. I am a Strawderman Girl for life, it has influenced every aspect of who I am, and tought me to be confident in who I am, the decisions I make, and where I fit in this world. I went to Strawderman as a camper for 8 years and was a counselor for 4 years. If I could continue I would go back every summer. A great place to send your girls if you want them to develope in a place that is safe from judgement and to make true friendships she can count on for life.

GREAT CAMP! i went there my first summer ands im planing to go back as many times as i can! the activities are very fun, and you will make everlasting friends! that is the hardest part about leaving! i cryed all the way home!

I LOVE THIS CAMP!!! I've been counting the days til I get back there the day I got home. I've met some of my closest friends through Strawderman. I have the address memorized!!! Only 15 more days!!!!

awesome fun camp really sweet counselor and ever lasting friendship

It was my first time going to Strawderman, i came from across the country, its an amazing experience, you definitley have to get use to the weather, it gets hot. i love it! its so fun, i recommend this camp its a blast!

I love this cam SO much. You can go for either 2, 4,6,or 8 weeks. I have been going for 6 weeks. I wish i could go there all year long. There are so many activities you can do and it is so fun. I love all of the cabins and the meals too. It is an all girls camp so you don't have romantic pressure. It is the best camp in the world. It is not well known but can always use more people! About 100 girls go each session. It has a very homey feeling. I just love it and you will too! It is the best camp in the WORLD!

I'm a fourth generation strawderman girl and i would never dream of going anywhere else. Strawderman is definetly the best place to spend your summer!

I went to Camp Strawderman for 11 years, and it was one of the defining experiences of my life. A girl learns so much more than how to ride, or swim, or shoot archery. At Strawderman, girls learn how to live, to cherish the earth and to care about each other. The activities are well-taught, the setting is beautiful, but the most important thing a girl takes from Strawderman is a real knowledge who she is and what her place is in the world: a competent, caring leader. Strawderman has given three generations of girls memories and friendships that last a lifetime, as well as a confidence that they have a place in the world that only they can fill. There is no better place on earth for a girl than Strawderman - and I say that, looking back, after over 30 years away. Strawderman made me who I am.

I highly recommend Camp Strawderman. I went there for 11 years, and I can't imagine having gone anywhere else. It taught me so many valuable lessons and skills that I carried with me through high school and college. Two enthusiastic thumbs up from me!
