Camp No Counselors - New York, New York

Franny B.

So I went here in 2022. I wanted to do something they would just free my soul especially considering becoming a new mom the year prior. I came across cnc and decided to go. I had no idea what to expect being that I never been to sleep away camp. But nothing could prepare me for the time i had! It was such a great experience and soooooo much fun! It was wild just a bunch of adults that said f my life n them kids for the weekend and enjoyed themselves. We partied we laughed we had a ball. I met so many new people even a Clark Kent look alike !! They had various activities you could take part in like paint and sip, fishing, kayaking, a pool, an obstacle course archery etc. They also had parties every night with open bar. Limited select of alcohol but feel free to byob 😊😊😊 and byow also. They say no smoking and they do it maybe to deter you but ppl still had it. The parties are themed so you can dress up. There’s photo booths beer pong games! The list goes on. They provide the food shelter and transport to and from the city.
They also do awards and guess who got Rookie Camper of the Year!!!!!
If you do nothing else in your life you have to attend this camp even if only once! You won’t regret it!

I’m genuinely shocked that this place has anything less than a perfect 5 star rating.

I’m the best man in an upcoming wedding and decided to plan Camp No Councilors for the groom and all the groomsmen for the bachelor party. Needless to say, we all had an absolute blast. The itinerary was jam packed with dozens upon dozens of activities all day, with something for everyone. Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie, athletic, creative or just want to chill. There’s something for you to do at all times of the day.

The “non-councilors”/staff were extremely kind, accommodating and generous. They both hung out with us as well as helped us with literally anything we could ever need or want at any time. The nightly parties were wild, with top tier DJs and live bands, the bars were fully stocked with practically whatever we wanted and most importantly, the entire weekend truly made us feel like kids again with an insanely heartfelt and immersive camp-like experience.

Everything was amazing but I’d say the best part, was the nostalgia I got from being back “at camp” for the first time in over a decade.

The one and only complaint I’d have is that the beds in the cabins are pretty uncomfortable, but to be fair, that’s part of the true camp experience! I just got back yesterday and am already looking forward to booking my next trip! 100% recommend going!

I honestly dont know where to start. I have traveled to over 30 countries, multiple festivals, campsites, hostels, and plenty of binge drinking weekends. Camp no counselors is by far the most professional, fun, outgoing, organized, compassionate, loving group of workers I have seen. The activities, theme parties, local wine tastings, catered BBQ, and cheese spread was amazing and went above expectations. The bar staff were incredible, drinks were not watered down they definitely did not hold bank on the alcohol and was awesome that they brought late night snacks for us to enjoy. Security was on point with no fights at all. The mood of all the campers was energetic and welcoming. I would like to especially thank Leanne, Hannah, Ginger mike, and Joel for the outstanding customer service! I will 100 percent be attending multiple camps in the future. Thank you for a lifetime of memories!

I just got back from the New York CNC camp. I had the best time! The non counselors were amazing and so friendly! Everyone at the camp was so invested in meeting new people and creating new friendships. I can’t wait to see all the photos taken from this past weekend!

Great exhausting but extremely fun weekend. Not 5 stars because there were a few things that could have been better but nothing that ruined the trip. Planning on going again in the future.

I went into this experience with no idea what to expect. With that being said.. I also called months in advanced and asked if I should bring anything like snacks or alcohol for the cabin we stayed in for after hours since the bar closes at 12am. The person I spoke to told me there would be no need since it’s all inclusive and that you can grab seltzers from the bar at the camp and store them in your cabin and snacks will be available all day long. Not the case. They open every drink when giving it to you so you can’t bring extra to your cabin. And the food times are very quick, an hour long. No snacks in between. And food times are fast, an hour long. Which seems like enough time but when you’re running behind and you have to walk a decent distance to the lodge if feels like you’re rushing everywhere. We tried to leave at one point since we didn’t participate in the olimpics and go grab some extra snack and gaterades from the gas station (we were hungry and dinner was hours away) and they stopped us at the gates. We were told that we couldn’t leave since people drink all day. Which we didn’t and were sober…But I feel like that should be said before hand or give us an option to Uber. The lady at the gate did end up giving us a few bags of chips and some small gaterades which was appreciated but we had to go through all that. Also no locks on the bathroom doors of the cabin so I’m the middle of the day we had random people walk into our bathroom and use it which was kind of scary considering we had our own cabin for my Bach party. Anyone can walk in an out of our cabin. Overall I feel like I would have had a better time if we were more prepared.

Just got back from CNC Florida 2020. I've been to several CNC camps and I love the changes the new ownership has made (CNC is back and better than ever!), they made it much easier and convenient! Also, camp is soooo much fun, the staff was very help and forthcoming and everyone who attended was incredibly awesome!! Can't wait to get back to camp!!

Went to the CA camp. It’s a fun experience, but manage your expectations. The food was terrible and my neck still hurts from the uncomfortable bed, but we had a good time. Three nights is too long. Two nights is plenty to get everything in. I will say, the Olympics were very disorganized. The “counselors” in my opinion dropped the ball there. They were sort of disorganized throughout the whole weekend. Late to events. Nothing ever really set up on time. It was weird but back to the Olympics…Our leader didn’t seem to care what was happening and screwed over our whole team when she didn’t know the relay course which caused us to receive two time penalties and lose us the competition. Also, there was cheating happening that they didn’t really care about and there seemed to be favoritism towards the Blue team, which was unnecessary and annoying. I also didn’t feel like they really made an effort to engage with us. So just keep your expectations in check. But definitely go have fun with your friends!
