They don’t have enough staff to watch your kid— in the rare case that they abnormally had a seizure on the ground. There’s enough NONsupervision for ANYTHING to happen to your child and it won’t be reported to anyone.

YMCA Camp Lyndon holds a permanent place in our hearts. For both my son and daughter, it has been more than just a summer camp—it’s been a home away from home, a place where they’ve grown into more confident, compassionate, and curious versions of themselves. The curriculum is everything you’d hope for as a parent—purposeful, active, and filled with the kind of hands-on experiences that spark creativity, resilience, and joy. Whether it’s learning to canoe, developing archery skills, participating in theater, or just learning how to be a good friend and teammate, every activity is grounded in intention and delivered with care. But what makes Camp Lyndon truly magical is its people. The counselors and staff are second to none. They see each child not just as a camper, but as a whole person—with their own personality, fears, and strengths. They lead with heart and energy, and their positivity is absolutely infectious. My kids have come home each day bursting with stories, newfound confidence, and a deeper sense of who they are. Year after year, Camp Lyndon has been a grounding and joyful part of our summer rhythm, helping my kids build lifelong friendships and memories. If you’re considering it for your family—do it. It’s the kind of place that changes lives, and I am so grateful it’s been a part of ours.

Child was assaulted by another camper and they did not handle it properly to say the least!! Very little control or supervision of children and run by mostly older kids. I asked for documentation I had to ask multiple times the other kid was only suspended for a day although my son had to miss 2 days just to heal. His eye was split open due to a kid intentionally throwing a rock at his face the same camper was also threating other campers with a lunch box but is allowed to stay... Safety, responsibility and professionalism is lacking after paying almost 7000 to send 2 kids. Expensive for very little activity ,lessons or even supervision. Worst experience with a camp. Even when I asked for a call back they call me at 8:45pm when my household is going to bed just very unprofessional. I have 3 kids and tried multiple camps never again I do not recommend camp lyndon.

I believe this is the place I went to back in the late 80's. It was Nature's Classroom in Sandwich Massachusetts. I remember the beach and the road stoped right after it. It was 5 days long and it was like a summer camp with bunks houses and bunk leaders. We went with the school I was attending thin and I was around 11 or 12 at the time. It was one of the best memories I have from my childhood middle school days. Times today are nothing like they were back thin. I wish my kids could experience just half of the things I was able to do win I was full of wonder and endless energy. Man time goes by fast, and things we use to do that were normal are looked down on or even no longer allowed and kids these days are starting to show the results of being sheltered, pampered and always getting what they want win they want it. I was born in 78 and I believe it was some of the BEST years to grow up as a kid.!!!!! Without a doubt
