We LOVE EVC! Camp has shared a beautiful way of villaging to our child and it is integrated into her year-round way of life in the spirit she brings to everything she does.

Eden Village Camp is truly a unique place. I think that part of why my daughter loves it so much is because she can really be herself there. She is not concerned about being judged for her opinions or views. She can just be herself and be accepted. The diverse group of kids that she has become friends with is also a plus. Eden Village gives her the chance to interact with other kids from all different Jewish backgrounds. On top of that, the staff at Eden Village is top notch. Thank you for providing my daughter with such a meaningful and fun 3 weeks this past summer.

We love EVC! Our kids come back kinder, more aware of themselves, and more confident in who they are at the end of each summer. The counselors and support staff are amazing and have such a strong positive impact on the children.

It was our son's 5th year at EVC and he is loving it more than ever! He had his best year yet and is already thinking about next summer. It is a magical place, cared for and curated by magical human beings. Our family feels so much gratitude to have EVC in our lives.

There are not enough words to describe how Eden Village has impacted my kids in positive, and loving ways. My kids are positive, hopeful, and strong because of the role models and structure of Eden Village.

Our child LOVES Eden Village Camp and has been attending for four years and will continue to do so. She feels deeply connected to the community and nature and loves the activities. I feel grateful for the extremely positive, caring and intentional environment. It is everything we could ask for and more.

This is our kiddo’s fifth year at Eden Village Camp. It is the place where he can let out a sigh of relief and relax into being himself. We want to thank the camp and the camp staff for supporting Owen this year during the hospice care and death of his grandfather. In the car ride home, he talked about how supported he felt by Counselors and Specialists, the Lev Squad, Rabbi Pesach, Admin, Nurses, and fellow campers, and we are very grateful.

12 years go our oldest child, Maddie, started attending Eden Village and I knew immediately that it was the camp for our family. She thrived at camp and then grew into a young adult who thrived working at camp, as well. It is so fulfilling to now see our youngest child, Sara, thriving at camp, coming home with a bursting heart for the experiences she shared with her friends there. It is priceless to hear these two sisters, 6 years apart in age, talk for hours about Eden Village together. What a special place!

My daughter has been to camp before and had a wonderful time, but Eden Village was different in the most intentional and thoughtful ways. From the no-body-talk policy to the way campers are encouraged to lead with kindness, everything is designed to help kids focus on what really matters: their values, their interests, and who they are as people. For my daughter, who usually feels a bit of social anxiety even with friends, this made all the difference. She felt comfortable making friends, being herself, and taking social risks, without ever feeling awkward or out of place.

My child LOVES EVC. It's her favorite place. She tells me that the counselors are responsible and kind. They are willing to have conversations with campers and play card games, which she likes. She loves the food, especially the tomato soup. In a letter home she wrote, "Camp is perfect." It's a wonderful Jewish camp full of joy and song. The nurses are also very helpful and kind, too.

I knew I wanted to send my kiddos to EVC before I was even pregnant with my oldest! This is their 4th summer and it is the best part of their year. They’ve made incredible friends, the staff is awesome, and we were made aware of difficult situations at various times during their camp experience. Years ago one friend came out as NB, in addition to supporting that kiddo as they came out to their bunk, they also had a special tent night with their closest friends to bond and connect after coming out. I get a call every year after camp is over to check in about my child’s experience, it’s always a pleasure to hear how the summer went from the adult perspective. This year my kiddo is studying for their b’mitz along with other friends, they were upset at first but it seems to be going well. Every letter (or email) home is about how much they love EVC. We live MANY states away and it’s not easy to manage them going to camp but we make it happen because it is the most important, loving, and supportive environment in my child’s life and has been since year one. I wish I could give EVC a million stars!!
The negative parent reviews from 9-10 years ago is from when the camp was brand new, they’ve continued to learn and grow as an institution, take feedback seriously, and want to hear constructive suggestions that will support the whole EVC community (campers, staff, parents).
Their policies are clearly laid out, they host MULTIPLE webinars before camp to answer any questions, and are very responsive to parents concerns and give kiddos a place to learn and grow as humans.
