With more than 15,000 camps in America, one local summer camp has earned a four-star rating as one of the best.
Newsweek Magazine partnered with a research team to review camps and develop a list of the top 500 Summer Camps for 2024. Making the list was the Hidden Valley 4-H Camp in Watkins Glen.
The list presents the 500 best U.S. summer camps, split into 200-day camps and 300 overnight camps. The locations are ranked based on a survey of 30,000 parents conducted in 2023 and 2024 and nearly 700,000 social media reviews on Google and Facebook. Camps were rated on criteria like the selection of offered activities, accessibility, staff-to-children ratio, and camp safety.
