★★★★★Lonnie FirestoneAmazing camp I’ve been sending my kids there for just two years and they love it
★NemizaWe were present at one of their outings, the mentors/leaders seem to kinda have no respect for the people around them. They left on buses and left piles and piles of trash on the tables at Chucksters. They were also running around screaming when surrounded by younger families and children as we were trying to play mini golf. Also their was a group of campers and mentors staring as down as we were golfing by their table. Please learn some manners.
★Sivan ReynaHorrible camp. Staff that don’t care about your happiness or health. My daughter was sick and not let into the marp with a high fever because they didn’t have space or some Bs and was forced to lay on the ground alone because I couldn’t move. She wasn’t able to get any tea or anything for her throat and the staff was mad at her for trying to rest or get medicine. Never going back.
★Sanika ChitariDisclaimer- me or my kids did not attend this camp. We were present at Flume Gorge hike where these campers were hiking. The counselors (older kids who lead the young campers) do not have manners when they are at a public place such as the Flume Gorge. The gorge pathway is narrow and comfortably allows for a single file line to climb. There were several families with different abilities on this pathway along with us while we were climbing. Once the campers , led by their counselors arrived on the path, they pushed everything and everyone away from their path pretty much. Either everyone infront of them has to rush through the whole climb, without a chance to even stop and take a single pic, or hang on the rail for dear life while the counselors barged through without saying excuse me, thankyou, sorry campers coming through etc. NO MAGIC WORDS. Very rude counselors.
★★★★★Joshua Herzig-MarxBoth our synagogue and kids' school use Yavneh for retreats. The staff is great and the food is surprisingly delicious for camp. Lovely space. We have a great time. Highly recommended for your retreats as well.
