Camp Kinneret Summer Day Camp

Today is my daughter’s last day of camp for the summer. She absolutely loved this camp. Between the two of them, my kids have attended a lot of camps. I have to say, from a parent’s perspective, this camp really has their stuff together. Communication is great. They seem to be very organized and they hire really warm young people. Some of my daughter’s favorite activities were spending time with the animals, going on the little boats and swimming. She loved her counselor Megan. Camp Kinneret isn’t cheap. But it’s in the same range as the other well regarded day camps with the various bells and whistles. Almost all the kids take buses. I like that the kids are actually engaged on the bus, singing songs etc. It’s not just transportation if you will. In sum, Camp Kinneret was a big hit with my 7 year old daughter.

To clarify regarding my last review, my 10 year old son found my phone unlocked and wrote the entire review himself. You can see, with typos and all how much he loves this camp.

I love this camp! My daughter went to this camp for 2 years and loved it! It’s now years later and my friend wanted to send her child to camp… long story short, it was last minute but Ryan was so understanding and did everything he could to get the child registered so he could start right away!
They are an amazing staff. They are so caring and they really care about the children and that their camp experience is wonderful and fun!!!
My daughter used to come home singing the songs, and still sings them from time to time… she’s 19 now!
I highly recommend this camp to everyone, and to anyone who wants their child to have a memorable camp experience that they will talk about for years to come…
Thank you Ryan and staff, you’ve made another child so very happy!

My daughter is 8 years old and has been going to Camp Kinneret for the past 3 summers. This camp is so «on top of it» it’s amazing. The communication, responsiveness, and administrative side of things is pretty flawless! It’s better run than my daughters Elementry school. The camp itself is really a kids dream come true and — most importantly the management team, counsellors and staff set this camp apart from anywhere else. My daughter and about 8 of her classmates from school go every summer and it’s always a special summer adventure for them. My daughter CRIES when camp ends every year! I highly recommend Camp Kinneret. I don’t have a single complaint in 3 years. Everyone loves it and the kids especially love the bus rides.

Camp Kinneret is the best summer day camp ever set foot in America. Camp Kinneret has got everything kids want at there; hikes, woodworking, «high ropes», a pool, archery, and much more. The camp is so well taken care of. Kids can go on a bus to this great camp or their parents can drive them. In the camp’s second session, they have a week of something called the Kinneret Olympics; which is similar to the real Olympics. Kids sing a lot of songs and also play a lot of games at camp. In both sessions they hold The Great Kinneret Sleep-​out 1 and 2. They sleep out at the camp. If you want know more go to «

Coming to this camp was a great experience for me. They have a pool, archery, a climbing wall, a gym, ga-​ga pits, animals, a field, and much, much more fun and exciting features.
Everyone here is very nice to everyone else. The staff, other campers, and anything me else. I’m telling you how it is, bring your kids here. They accept kids in who are between the ages of 4 and 18, and staff members 19 or older. If you need a summer camp for your kids, no need to look any farther!

The best camp experience. This last summer was the first time my boys (ages 4 and 7) attended a real summer camp. From the staff, to the facilities, the bus rides, camp outs, snacks and much more are all top notch. You feel as parents you are part of the family, as well as the kids for sure. The camp is super clean, well run, maintained and each day the kids had a blast. They came home singing songs and with all kinds of stories about their days. This last summer is something the boys will never forget. As a first time camper parent I did not know what to expect, what we received was a lifelong experience for our boys that was truly magical.

I went to Camp Kinneret when I was 6 years old (yes, it’s been around that long…60 years!) This past summer, my 6-​year-​old son had his first camp experience at Camp Kinneret, and it couldn’t have gone better.
We live in Sherman Oaks, so I was a bit apprehensive putting my son on a bus. He’d never been on a school bus, and was definitely not excited about it. I can’t tell you what a relief it was when he got off the bus after his first day, and said that camp was «Great!» And it continued to be great every single day… even when his best friend (also attending camp for the first time) was not there.
I have one of those kids who marches to his own drummer. He’s a boy who is not into sports or super heroes. He likes to play with friends, but can be just as happy (more happy?) doing his own thing. I was nervous about sending him to camp because he’s never really liked organized activities. I can honestly say that Camp Kinneret was the first activity that my son has truly LOVED. It’s the end of October, and he’s still singing Camp Kinneret songs. Seriously. He simply cannot wait to go back next summer, and has already instructed me to sign him up for more days this time around! And for whatever it’s worth, his friends (boys who *are* into sports, super heroes, and organized activities) loved it too.
Camp Kinneret was not only great for my son, but the staff has completely spoiled me as a parent. I don’t know that another camp will ever live up to the level of professionalism, organization, and attentiveness that I experienced with this camp. I truly believe that the staff at Camp Kinneret is what makes the difference. It’s not any fancy whistles or bells that make the camp so fantastic… and if you take a tour, you will see what I mean. It’s the people — the counselors and staff — that make the camp experience so great. I know that sounds trite, but it’s true.

Our sons have been at camp Kinneret since they were 8 and 6. We tried to save a little money and sent them to the local camp. The complaining was endless so we decided last summer to send them back to Kinneret. The counselors are outstanding and the camp is safe, organized and fun, fun, fun. Our older boy was a CIT and really enjoyed working with the younger children. Both boys want to be counselors at camp Kinneret, of course.

Our family cannot say enough good things about Camp Kinneret! Both of my boys go there and have been since they were 5 (they are now 9 and 7) and count down the minutes until summer is here and they can board their favorite yellow buses! The staff is absolutely amazing … everyone from the counselors to the pool and specialist staffs and the bus drivers are fantastic and make the camp experience the best that it can be for all campers. My boys are still singing all of the songs from their bus rides — one of their favorite parts of the day! I’ve had friends who have tried other camps and have never been as happy as we have been with Kinneret. It continues to be the best part of the summer for our kids!

Look no further for an amazing summer camp for your kids! Camp Kinneret is the best! Both of my kids absolutely love it. The staff is amazing… everyone from Ryan the director to the counselors and bus drivers. They are fun, energetic, attentive, honest and great role models. My kids sing all summer long! Everything at camp is a song and they LOVE the bus ride! Only bummer… your kids will cry on the last day of camp knowing that they have to wait an entire school year before they can go back.
