Our oldest went to camp here for many years and our youngest son just started Camp Shaver. The staff and camp experience is wonderful, building social skills and self confidence. And the Jemez mountains are absolutely beautiful!

this camp is the best summer camp EVER , the staff are fantastic and although the cabins , bathhouse, dining hall, and pretty much everything is worn down, you still have so much fun! The food is really good for a summer camp, the actives always are extremely fun and no matter what everyone is having a fantastic time. the staff is well trained and you can really tell. A family member of mine passed away while i was here and the staff , (locki) comforted me and made me feel much better. No matter the circumstances i never had a bad time. everyone is super fun and makes sure you are always laughing, not a single dry moment here. you will have so much fun as long as you aren’t afraid to get a little dirty in the mud pit or dance to silly dances at the campfire. honestly i have zero to no complaints . FANTASTIC CAMP!!

My daughter has came to this camp since 2014. Every summer she winds up staying additional weeks. Last year, she stayed 5 weeks and I had to prey her away. This is a very safe and engaging camp. The staff are well trained and always have your child's safety on their mind while making sure they are fully engaged and having a blast in their activities! My daughter's love for the outdoors grows with every camp visit. She has developed some great friendships along with skill sets she never realized she possessed. She's already making goals to be a camp leader next summer. Great place, great people!!

This was my daughter's first year to attend Camp Shaver & we were so impressed! I spoke to the director before we registered her and he took lots of time to address my concerns and questions. Never made me feel like I was bothering him! Kiddo had a wonderful time and has already begged to go again next year. I wish we could afford to send her more than one week!!!
