My grandson has been going to camp at Tall Pines for the last few years and loves it. There are so many activities that he comes home happy and excited every day. The staff is amazing and are a big part of the experience. It’s also so easy to get him there and back every day with the busing available to every camper. His favorite activity is swimming, and he also loves the zip line and fishing. There is so much to do, and it’s been a great experience for him. He has made many friends while at camp that he keeps in touch with throughout the year. I highly recommend Tall Pines to anyone looking for an awesome summer day camp!

My children have attended this camp for years and absolutely love it! My son, who aged our last year, loves camp so much that he interviewed to stay on as a Jr Counselor. My daughter plans to follow his path. It says a lot when your “big” kids want to keep attending camp! We also can’t say enough great things about the Musical Theater program! Highly recommend this camp!

I was nervous about sending my child to camp outside of the city last summer, but couldn’t have made a better choice than choosing Tall Pines. From the minute she got picked up at the bus stop, she was engaged, socializing, and having FUN. From the bus attendants to the counselors to the senior staff, it’s obvious that they love what they do. My daughter gained so much confidence, learned to swim, and made lasting friendships. They took her food allergy seriously and handled medications with professionalism and care. We will send our other child when they’re old enough to attend. There’s a reason everyone goes there— it’s the best camp around!

Tall pines day camp is a loving, caring And family oriented camp! The one thing I really love about the camp is that all staff members are involved with making the experience for all the children that come to Tallpines the Best Experience ever. I also love the fact that the owner is 100 % involved on the scene every day!

A friend from my son’s school introduced us to Tall Pines 3 years ago and I have voted this camp #1 every year. Amazing!! Great place to make life long friends and make amazing summer memories. I highly recommend just a visit for open house to Tall Pines Day Camp, one visit and you will be hooked.

I love knowing my children are all safe, staff become like family, no expenses are spared on quality of equipment and staff. Many of the staff are full-time teachers and most of the younger staff were young campers themselves. They have medical staff on site or nearby. They also work with local business and animal communities to help introduce the kids to all kinds of animals and provide knowledge for the type of care needed to support and protect animal life.

All of the staff at Tall Pines Day Camp are amazing. Transportation services are top notch! They have everything from swim lessons to horseback riding and everything in between. Every sport you can think of is played there, go cars to paddle boats but the specialty is ‘gaga’. I haven’t met a kid yet that didn’t love the game and they have plenty of gaga pits to be played.

TPDC has excellent owners, wonderful staff, and a plethora of very well-kept and maintained activities. Every year they seem to outdo themselves. The owners and directors go out of their way to make every child as well as every staff member, from the bunk counselors to the specialty coordinators to the food workers, feel like they are part of one very large family!

This is a wonderful place where kids are openly welcome as family. They do so much for the kids and expose them to all life skills and experiences. My daughter has gained a lot of confidence through her summer experiences. My son has also attended and was struggling to keep up with some of the other kids so they added another counselor to the group to help him without me even asking. This place is top notch class and they truly are wonderful people. In 6 years I have never had a negative experience.
