I went summer 2024 and did not enjoy it. An important aspect for me when choosing summer programs is how they accommodate dietary restrictions. On the website it says that they accomodate vegans and vegetarians, but they had the same thing about 4-6 days in a row for breakfast and dinner, and once I was given a plate of raw tofu for dinner. Other than that my experience was okay; the staff was welcoming and I found some of the programs interesting, but don't go here if you are vegan or vegetarian.

I can't say enough good things about this camp! Every single moment has been planned to offer your child the best opportunity for fun, friendship, growth, belonging, skill building, and a sense of community. My children arrived at Camp Emerson feeling nervous, then homesick and hungry for their electronic devices. However, over the next few days they realized they truly enjoyed playing in nature, being silly, creating, learning, and making new friends! They learned what it's like to unplug and find their inner strength in an environment that caters not only to fun, fun, fun (which there is a ton of!) but also to nurturing interpersonal relationships in beautiful, healthy surroundings with activities galore! Their time at camp provided our kids with so many experiences they never would have had otherwise. Also, there are people there from all over the world. We think that is one of the highlights that this camp offers. The counselors were energetic, kind, responsible, and truly loved our kids. There were tears at pick up! Seeing a stranger care for your child that way- there is almost nothing as heart warming! Our children can't even remember all the cool things that they did at Camp Emerson, but it seems that they are constantly telling us some new tidbit about their time there. Every second was obviously well utilized. They have each kept in touch with campmates who they hope will be forever friends, and we are sure they will. We look forward to what next year will bring and are looking to further extending their time spent at Camp Emerson! Highly recommend!
