Our sons both love their time at Eagle Ridge and we as parents love that they can spend quality time learning new skills like sailing, fishing, card games, debate club, making summer friendships and trying out new experiences. The owners and counselors do a phenomenal job providing a safe, fun, and classic camp environment where the campers can find joy off the grid and develop leadership qualities outside of academic pressure. My favorite photos are the ones where the kids are being silly, dancing and having fun- a beautiful time for them to be themselves and shine.

The Camp Eagle Ridge team ! Thank you for the amazing experience you gave my kids over these past two weeks! The warmth and professionalism made all the difference. They came back full of excitement, happy, and more confident than ever. A special thanks to Director Kelly, who supported me with every question I had — she really made me feel safe and at ease throughout the whole journey. The daily photos and the sweet letters from my kids only confirmed that we made the right choice. If you ever get the chance, I absolutely recommend this experience. What an unforgettable vacation!

Our kiddo did their homework when it came down to picking there first summer camp; she even made a decision matrix which led to her picking Camp Eagle Ridge. We were thrilled because it was so close to home… and happy because she had a blast. We will definitely return and she is already scheming to become a counselor.

My boys LOVE Camp Eagle Ridge! I have three sons with very different personalities and interests, and all have thrived there. They can hardly wait to go back each summer, and keep in touch with camp friends during the year. They have such a good time--the counselors are kind and engaging, the activities varied and super fun, and there are so many interesting electives! They also love the theme nights, camp traditions, and food! The staff are carefully vetted and go out of their way to make sure every camper feels nurtured. We hesitated to send our boys this year due to the pandemic, but were reassured after talking with the director and receiving information about the many thoughtful precautions taken to ensure everyone's safety. My kids had a blast! Highly recommend.

I was lucky enough to learn about Camp Eagle Ridge when I met the director, Kelly, at a summer opportunities fair in my home town. I loved her enthusiasm and sincerity and the relatively small size of the camp. It also provides bus transportation from Madison and Milwaukee (a great convenience!). As a first-timer mom sending my boys off to camp 6 years ago, I was grateful to be able to talk with Kelly about my questions and concerns in preparing my boys for that first summer experience. Her patient guidance and reassurance boosted my confidence as a “newbie camp mom” and made that first send-off manageable. The caring environment at Camp Eagle Ridge starts with the director and runs all the way down through the staff. I've been comfortable knowing that my kids enjoy it so much and feel such belonging. They happily returned every summer for 4+ years (5-week sessions). My sons are now aged 18 and 20, and one of them will be a counselor there this summer. It has been a magical experience for them, and I'm so grateful we discovered this camp!
