Overnight Summer Camp · Ages 7–16 · Adirondack Park, Long Lake, NY
An Experience Of A Lifetime
Long Lake Camp Adventures is located in New York’s Great Adirondack Park where young and teen campers can escape their regular lives, unplug from their electronics and experience an unforgettable and unique adventure. Our exciting programs are designed to spark interest in new activities and let campers explore their wild and creative fun side.
Each day offers something new, and campers choose their own schedule to try something different or stick to their favorites. Some campers want a hyper-focused experience studying the crafts of automotive or blacksmithing; others want to try their hand at all kinds of new activities and just enjoy being outside and being a kid.
Our Story
A Family-Run Camp In The Heart Of The Adirondacks
Long Lake Camp Adventures is owned and run by Lee and Cindy Farrelly. We are a co-ed sleepaway camp on the shores of Long Lake, New York, deep inside the six-million-acre Adirondack Park, with campers joining us from across the country and around the globe.
We keep camp small on purpose. With a maximum of 90 campers a session, every camper is known by name, every schedule is personal, and every day is tailored to what your child actually wants to do. Our sister camp, Long Lake Camp for the Arts, shares our lakefront, which is how adventure campers get access to 20 art studios, a theater and music spaces most adventure camps simply don’t have.
Summers are spent in Long Lake, NY; our year-round office is in Dobbs Ferry, NY, so there is always someone to talk to.
Our Philosophy
We C.R.E.A.T.E. At Long Lake
It’s more than an acronym; it’s the guide that shapes our camp culture, instilled in our staff and shared with campers every day.
