Arrowhead Ranch

I had two experiences with Arrowhead Ranch from the perspective of both teacher and parent. The camp’s organization is one of the best youth & education oriented programs I’ve ever seen. The entire week is focused around the themes of nature, science, creative thinking, fitness, fun, social cooperation, and respect. The staff is expertly trained, and passionate about ensuring that all of the kids are enriched and safe at all times. The activities are structured and disciplined, but always conducted in a compassionate and supportive environment. The accommodations are well-​supervised, and all the activities promote cooperation. The food is excellent as well. Every minute of every day was filled with opportunities to give the kids a nature-​centric experience that is unlike anything they have ever seen. They will leave Arrowhead Ranch happier and enriched in ways that many of them will have never experienced, and may never experience again. I think that all kids should have this experience, and every school would reap expansive benefits for their students that will continue to pay rewards long after their stay at Arrowhead Ranch is concluded.

I went with my son, who has Autism, to attend a week-​long science camp his school had arranged for the 5^th grade class. We could not stay the whole week but what we experienced was very memorable (in a good way) The staff there was attentive and took great care to communicate with us and with each other to ensure planned events would not upset my son by forewarning us of what to expect. The staff somehow managed this amazing feat of hospitality while taking care of the other70 students. In reviewing my stay, I cannot imagine how this team of leaders could have done more for us. As for the overall program, kids get a break from the usual daily electronic distractions to engage with each other and with the natural world around them. The kids had a great time as well as a meaningful time. I definitely recommend this camp to parents.

I came here when I was in the 6^th grade from banyan elementary school. The 3 days I spent here were the best. We went on hikes, danced, had 3 meals a days and the adults were nice. There was always an activity and on the last night there was the night walk. The food was bomb which was my fave part. Send ur kid here u won’t regret it. I still have my class picture from this trip and it brings nothin but good memories and I wish I could go back awwww the good old days
