Camp Hillcroft Day Camp

Lifeguard Re-Certification Course, Dutchess County, NY

Here's what our Families are Saying!

Parent of 6th and 8th grade children, 5th and 7th Summer at Hillcroft

My children have been going to Camp Hillcroft since they were in 1st grade. This year they will be returning as 6th and 8th graders, and are JUST as excited as they were the first time they went. As a parent, I couldn’t be any happier. My kids have very different personalities (one is shy, one is very outgoing) and they both come home each day happy, engaged and exhausted:) From swimming and crafts, to farming and zip lining, Hillcroft has it all! Most importantly, it is extremely well run, and I have the utmost confidence in their safety and well-being while there.
