Friendly and caring staff that really connect with the kids. My camper said she felt her counselor made it a point to make her feel included. This is a terrific experience for my daughter, and gives her a chance to grow that's somehow better than school and better than what I'm capable of teaching at home.

I LOVED Camp Bernie! An expreince that I will never forget with such great friends made there. I was a new camper and they accepted me right away and I made new friends so quickly. I was a shawnee, so I slept in the nicest cabin (almost like a hotel!) but the boys sleeping arangments are deplorable. I don't care though--I'm not a boy!

I LOVED CAMP BERNIE! It was so fun. They do so many activities there! The food isn't SO great but is fine when you are really hungry.( And Believe me you do get hungry!) The Cabins are O.K. My Cabin wasn't the nicest but you are only sleeping there for 2 weeks. The nicest cabin in the camp is where the Shawnees sleep... It is like a hotel! The worst cabins are where the Nations sleep. Those cabins are small,dirty and are in the middle of the woods! Plus there bathroom facility is outside so bugs are everywhere!( I Checked in on of the stalls... The was a big ugly beetle swimming in the toilet!). The staff is so nice especially the camp director Roy. He is so kid friendly and an awsome guy! Most of the staff is international. The camp isn't so expensive. $1000 or so. Not that bad. A Very Reasonable price. This was my first time at sleepaway camp but it is such a great expirience. Trust me once you go to Camp Bernie you will never want to leave.***** (5 stars) Camp Bernie... YOU ROCK!

Camp Bernie is a great place to go with your school as well as going for a Y program in the summer,but their food is the downer I mean once I was there and it was meatball and spagetti lunch and me being clumsy dropped my meatball and it bounced and bounced until it got to the end of the room and vanished from sight.Its safe to say my appetite vanished with my meatball!

I loved going here. It may not have the fanciest facilities or activities, but it is just a good all around camp. The cabins have are in the woods and are not fancy, but have proper windows, sturdy bunk beds, and have, at least for girls, multiple toliets and sinks.

Well,this camp was really good when i went there in the winter..(with schools),for 3 days. However,during the summer,it kinda wasn't htat good. Nice activities,nice staff,NOT NICE FOOD-the food was sometimes UNEDIBLE..specially the eggs,CERTAIN CABINS WERE AWFUL..They should make all cabins about equal..It's not fair that the Shawnees got to stay in a "Hilton-like cabin" and every1 else had horrible cabins,especially the Nations..All in all,I had a good/ok time.
