Founded in 1963, Camp Eagle Hill is a traditional, co-ed sleepaway camp located on a 200-acre property in Elizaville, NY (just two hours north of NYC). Our campers range in age from 6-16 years old and come for 2, 4, or the full 6 weeks! We have a very large adult staff, small camp groups, a well-rounded and varied program, and a beautiful camp facility. Most important, we have a hands-on Directorship that will know and care for your child and help him/her to enjoy a wonderful camp experience! To learn more, visit www.campeaglehill.com.
WELCOME TO OUR FAMILY
We are so pleased that you have chosen to consider Camp Eagle Hill for your family.
We want to welcome you to our Camp Family and hope that your tour through this website will be the starting point for a long and wonderful relationship with us.
We are proud of our half century of Eagle Hill summers. The picturesque landscapes and wonderful facilities on our grounds serve as constant reminders of the beauty of camp life and the endless possibilities that exist for a child’s growth and development at our camp. Eagle Hill is a place where every child can succeed. We provide opportunities for this success and help guide our campers to find those aspects of camp life that create positive results and raise self esteem. Our campers play, laugh, sing and enjoy creating summertime memories that they take with them from each summer with us. Most important, we help children to understand and appreciate the value of friendships gained through living together and sharing in our camp community.
In welcoming you to our family, we want you to know that we will care for your children as though they were our own. From arrival to departure, we will be a constant part of how your child lives, plays, interacts, eats, rests and grows with us. We will be with your child each moment of every camp day and will act on your family’s behalf every step of the way. Call us, e-mail us or meet with us. We want to give your child the best possible summer experience and we want to welcome you to our Eagle Hill family.
Our Facilities
After a half century of operation, Eagle Hill is still years younger than many camps in today’s camp industry. The majority of our summer camp facilities have been built over the last twenty five years or so and many areas of camp have recently been updated or renovated, keeping Eagle Hill a beautiful and modern camp facility.
Great Sports Fields and Courts
We are proud of our large open athletic fields and courts that serve us extremely well when running our fun and dynamic sports program. Our facility features: 2 baseball fields, 5 basketball courts, 8 tennis courts, 2 soccer fields, a large hockey rink and 3 volleyball courts.
Tremendous Indoor Facilities
Few camps have the number of indoor areas featured at Eagle Hill, including a tremendous gymnasium (Big Red) with our Eagle Hill Theater at one end, a large Activities Building with a beautiful new Dance Studio, Kitchen and Technical Theater Studio (Little Red), a unique Creative Arts Center (The Barn), a beautiful Recreation Hall/ Canteen Building (The Lodge), as well as a spacious Dining Room. Recently, we’ve added a super large tent that overlooks the entire Eagle Hill property giving us a great new area for weekly picnics and barbecues. A new amphitheatre area gives us plenty of outdoor space for shows, outdoor gatherings, campfires and other camp-type activities and events.
A Busy Waterfront
Our spring-fed lake sits at the heart of our summer camp facility, flanked at either end by one of our two pools. Our lakefront offers beautiful views from a number of different areas of camp and has a large new dock complete with a long water slide and a fun-filled inflatable “iceberg”. The waterfront is always buzzing with activity as the pools are constantly filled with swim classes, general swim time, lap swimming, water polo games, water aerobics or other fun programs. Our camp lake offers the use of a large number of small craft and is the site for both our annual Eagle Hill “diamond swim” and the start of our great Eagle Hill triathlon. Fishing takes place at one end of our lake near Eagle Hill’s famous and massive camp willow tree.
Tons of Summer Camp Activities
The Eagle Hill facility also has a large number of activity areas which help to round out our camp program. We have a new archery area, a full sized golf range, a beautiful double looped and banked go-karts track, a computers lab, a ropes course, nature area, campout site, wooded hikes area and much, much more.
Beautiful Camp Cabins
Our wood frame constructed cabins on both the girls side and boys sides of camp are all newly renovated, safe, and quite comfortable, each complete with large porches and full bathrooms. All of our cabins contain only single wooden beds, have attic fans, large spaces for clothing storage and plenty of open floor space for group fun.
