Testimonials From Our Summer Camp in Virginia

This is a wonderful, wonderful camp! Our 7-year-old was exposed to things we hadn't done at home before such as... baking bread and sewing a vest! The counselors are all really positive and friendly. In addition to the camp content itself, Steve & Kate's has really great (read: extended) hours and provides all food during the day! There is also a refund policy in case your child doesn't use all the days you purchased in advance. I signed up my 10-year-old, too, but he ended up getting off a wait list for another camp so I got my fee refunded to me. I feel like this is a camp designed by parents because it is so easy to work with. I'm really hoping they continue to offer an Arlington location!!

Arlington

Steve and Kate's has been our daughter's favorite camp the past two summers. We like the flexibility of being able to go for a few days during the week and not having to sign up in January. She likes the freedom to choose her own activities.

Hands down the BEST camp my daughters have attended. Extremely Caring counselors, [The Director] is awesome! Lots of engaging activities and highly flexible pass system. My girls are excited to get there in the morning and have stories about what they learned and did, for days! Not to mention, the menu is great! Cost wise, extremely great value for your dollar. You get quite a bite more than what you pay for!
