Camp Merrywood is a fantastic place for summer camp. My children not only went to camp there and loved it, but later worked as a lifeguard and counselor because they wanted to give back to a place where they had so many good times and memories. Thanks to the fantastic staff and leadership for all they do to make the kids summers so wonderful!!
