Aug. 13th - 17th

Take the ideal family vacation this summer at Camp Walt Whitman.

Our Family Camp has a wonderful low-key vibe and amazing offerings for you and your kids alike.

Each morning you can spend quality time with your family as you swim, make art, waterski, zip line, play tennis or hike our breath-taking trails.

In the afternoon, you'll have time to yourself as your children play under the guidance of our best counselors. Relax by the lake, improve your backstroke, learn how to sail, practice yoga - our camp is your oyster.

Following dinner, make memories together over classic camp activities like S'more-filled campfires, our mini-Olympics, a Luau, a Pool Party, a Scavenger Hunt, and Talent Show.

Afterward, activities for teens and tweens as well as our baby-sitting service mean you can enjoy adult time together around the campfire or play games in our lounge.

We have so many things to do, but you can also choose to not do anything! You can just relax and read a book outside if you prefer - it's your vacation.

Dates for Family Camp 2018 are Monday, August 13 to Friday, August 17
Prices are $700 per adult and $500 per child. Kids 3 and under are free.
