Click to report rating    6/18/17   5     5     4     4     5   Maarava is an AWESOME camp!!!! I loved it and I am going back for my fourth year to TCs!!! The food is not the best but they have a great canteen so its fine, and the activities are mostly good but some of them you kind of have to make it fun with your friends! but there are really nice girls there and its a camp known to be NOT snobby! There was not tons of personal attention but when you're having fun with your friends, its totally fine! Everyone should go there!!:) The review about campers getting there first and leaving after is totally not true! counselors come first and staff stays all the way till the end!! and some other reviews were also totally not true! also its probably more on the yeshivish side but there really are all types there!! The grounds are gorgeous too!!! GO MAARAVA!!! RID: 50850
Click to report rating    9/20/16   5     5     5     5     5   Best camp ever! It was my first year and it's really well run with great activities. Some of the activities flop but thats part of the fun! The food could use some help, but for the most part it's fine. Best breakouts ever, I am singing the songs all year round! The bunkhouses are really nice, with air conditioning and carpet. It's pretty yeshivish, but that does not affect any of the activities at all!'I was a little worried since none of my friends came with me but pretty much all of the girls are really nice and friendly! We love camp maarava, yeah, yeah! RID: 50123

Click to report rating    1/2/12   5     5     5     5     5   My daughter the past 4 years has been going to camp maarava. i came up to see them a couple of times and they were having the time of thier life. i checked out the facilities which were clean and ladies came once a day to clean.Mrs Lapides(the camp mother)makes sure everone is comftorable and she is very strict about clen bunkhouses.Evryone's stuff was very neat(and i didnt come on visiting day).the girls there are really cute and there is a very nice mix and noone is extermely modern...it is more on the yeshivish side.I know one of the heads and i therfore know what goes on behind the scenes of camp and everything is very well ran. All in all its great and i definity recomend it because my girls love it(i hear the songs all year round,and by now know them by heart).I really think its great!!!----Mrs.R RID: 37611

     1/11/11   1     1     1     1     1   I sincerely hope that other mothers will read this post. I sent two of my daughters to this camp. This camp is a complete disaster and I feel that it is my obligation to warn people against sending their girls to this camp. It is poorly run and disorganized. The facilities are filthy and overcrowded. The activities are virtually nonexistent. The supervisory staff is uncaring and unprofessional. The counselors are petty and mean and they gossip about campers. Also, counselors arrive after the campers to camp and leave before all the campers are gone. The camp director is cruel to children and her only concern with the girls seems to be conformity. She confronts girls and tells them they are not modest enough or frum enough without knowing them at all-and these girls happen to be extremely aidel, completely tzanuah, kind and beautiful girls. This camp is terrible from the point of view of a summer camp experience and is a morally and spiritually bankrupt place. Choose another camp-please RID: 34753

Click to report rating    7/26/10   5     5     4     4     5   this camp is super amazing! i went last yr. and i had tonz of of fun! i can say it waz kinda yeshivish, but afterwards i got used to it and met tons of really nice girls and staff. the whole entire camp atmosphere is very warm and friendly and it welcomes anyone with open arms which is a feeling that everyone loves, especially me. most of the activities are unique and original, unlike any other camp, such as sternberg. however, the camp has a lot of sports activities, which i dislike very much(but on the other hand sports is very common at any camp.). my counselors were very nice last year, and also vey caring. and when it comes to monetary value, OF COURSE YOU WILL GET UR MONYS WORTH CUZ I WANNA GO AGAIN IN 2010!! p.s. the singing on fri nites is very pretty. - basya oppenheimer RID: 33501

Click to report rating    4/29/10   4     4     4     5     4   Maarava is the best camp in the world, and that is coming from someone who went there for 5 years running. Since being in SIT, i have always loved coming to camp, seeing all my friends, and just having a ball! Although sometimes the activities dont exactly happen, maarava concentrates on friendships and the girls. RID: 32671

Click to report rating    1/27/10   5     5     4     3     5   The camp is a really good camp. I like it because of it's ruach. I think the camp should be run with the midwest spirit and not try to be like the east coast camps. Other than that they are doing a great job. RID: 31976

Click to report rating    9/7/09   5     5     4     4     4   This camp is an excellent camp! Every year it just gets bigger and better! I hope to go back for TC's 2010. The ruach,spunk is amazing there. The shuirim are inspirational. The achudus unreal. Oh, There is just so much to say about this great camp! I had learned so much from this camp. for example "Think Big" the theme of 2009. You may not relize the small idea you had years ago that it eventually did become a big idea. I miss this camp terrribly. I am counting down the days to season 2010! RID: 30915

All the girls are a bunch of sweeties and it has such a warm out of town feeling. I was crying when I had to leave, and I'm iy"h going back for my second summer next summer! The food isn't the greatest but if you come don't be a fool like some girls and not eat anything. It really isn't all that bad! The bunk houses are carpeted! and are really nice, especially the CIT house!I miss Maarava so much! M- a -r-a-v-a we're from Maarava and we're here to stay! Maarava is the greatest! RID: 28644
