I think it is extremely well run and organized. I never have any problems with communicating with director or counselors. My daughters LOVE this camp and look forward to it all year round! They swim in the pools every day, have different types of boats depending on ages, do all kinds of activities. My kids come home dirty and exhausted every day. I like the small group sizes, that is honestly part of what sold me on the camp! I dont worry about my kids being missed or neglected. The counselors remember them from years prior. It truly is a wonderful camp!

Such a camaraderie among the campers and staff of Camp Alvernia. My son has such a close bond with his group and they work together like a team. The sailing on the Centerport Harbor is unmatched. The campers truly learn how to sail and I believe the 5th graders are able to obtain a sailing license. The camp is set in the forest and the campers walk to their various activities like arts and crafts, swimming (free swim & lessons), nature, gaga, various sports, tennis by an instructor, dance, and more activities than I can list. Fairly priced and includes lunch & sailing. My son says it's magic. He has attended other well-known camps in the area, but this by far is his favorite! Camp Alvernia is a happy place & just epic!

One of the best…read moreparts of this camp is that all children have the opportunity to swim in an indoor olympic-size swimming pool every day with daily swim lessons. The pool is clean and well maintained. Our other favorite part of Future Stars Suffolk is the giant indoor air-conditioned sports arena that the children play in every day! I never have to worry about my children over-heating outside in extreme summer temperatures or miss playing sports and being active b/c it's raining outside. The large size of the arena is phenomenal and Future Stars sections it off for the different sports and age groups. All of the counselors at Future Stars Suffolk have been fun, friendly and attentive. The director is excellent, very visible and hands on and the entire office staff is always kind, prompt and responsive to any questions I have. We highly recommend Future Stars Suffolk!!!

We had a group of about 15 Cub scouts there finishing the ferns and animal related topic badge.

The boys were not interested in the discussion at all. The session was informative to the parents, but the lady seemed unable to handle younger kids. We then took a nature walk outside and the boys were very into the hike. The trail was clearly marked and easy to access by foot. Parking lot was relatively small. Overall it was an okay experience.
