Member Testimonials
My son really enjoys the camp! The counselors are all awesome. And the range of activities and spaces to play is fantastic. I have nothing but good things to say about Camp Cedar Mill and the people that run it!
Both of my girls who are somewhat picky about camps both love it. They are/will be back again this year for their second year! I think the mystery box is something I hear a lot about. Kudos to the counselors for being good sports about that!
My son is already talking about next year! He loved his experience— the theme weeks were great with so many fun activities. Amazing staff! Thank you for everything
Friendliness of people
It is a very friendly environment and staff is extremely helpful and attentive.
Great facility. Friendly helpful staff
Super fun outdoor water park, friendly staff, attentive lifeguards!!!!
Our family loves the water park. It’s a great way to start a summer day.
I take the classes and find the instructors to be upbeat and make them fun. I have just returned from having a knee replacement and everyone has been very helpful to me. It's a great community!
We love the splash park.
Has so many options to maintain health
You are doing a great job.
We love the mix of activities, a good, old fashioned camp experience, as opposed to focusing in on one skill or something.
Great place to make friends!
My son loved his experience. The camp counselors were very nice!
I am glad this program exists. It is affordable and well organized.
Boys love swimming and arts and crafts. Staff is very accommodating for kids who need extra attention and limits!
I love knowing that my kiddo is going to have a great day, rain or shine, when I drop him off in the morning. And if we end up having a low key evening at home recovering from a long day at work, I don’t feel as guilty when I know he spent the day at the lake swimming with his friends and doing crafts, which he loves. Thank you for creating this fabulous environment for our little ones. We appreciate all you do!
Kids are having so much fun!!
Our kids love Camp Dory!
Friendly staff - great outdoor water activities
It is indeed a family at my favourite centre, the Y in Ipswich!
It’s convenient and the staff is very helpful and friendly
Lisa is a great calm teacher for the preschoolers
Splash pad has a level for ages.
Plenty of lifeguards at the pools. They are present and keep watch but don't overdo it. The splash pads have been great for my granddaughter and she just joined both gymnastics and a swimming class. Having all these options is what is great about the Y.
The supportive, inclusive, and nurturing environment has produced an unseen confidence in both of our kiddos. Prior to Dory both of our kiddos were water shy/anxious, and already now in week 4, they are both playing in the waves at the beach, swimming in the ocean and excitedly going to swim at the Y. They come home each day with new adventures and tales of humor from camp and most importantly are excited each day to go back :-). The staff has worked closely with us to tailor needs based on our kiddos learning and social emotional make ups. They both feel part of the community in a way unseen by us at other camps in past years we have tried. Thank you!
The y is very friendly. I do wish it would really be available to all,
Friendly clean helpful staff
So far, so good.
We’ve enjoyed our membership since moving to the north shore.
Such a variety! Great staff!
