My daughter recently completed a week at Begonia’s Summer Camp and had such a fantastic time! The outdoor adventures were incredible and she was so happy every afternoon at pick up! The counselors were great and I really appreciated all the photos posted at the end of the week so I could see her adventures! Highly recommend!

We highly recommend Eric Begonia’s Summer Camp! Begonia's is an amazing day camp, full of outdoor adventures - whether tidepooling, beach exploration, swimming, catching frogs, fishing, hiking, rope swinging, or biking around Peaks Island - these campers are out and about, every day. The kids interact with each other and have downtime on some of the most beautiful beaches and water holes in southern Maine. Eric is great with the kids and he has some counselors who assist him. Our daughter and her friends (boys and girls) all love this camp, many attending multiple weeks over a number of years. Bring your sunscreen and water shoes and get ready to explore and have some fun!

Begonia’s Summer Camp is the best camp in southern Maine, hands down. It combines outdoor adventure with education and exploration, but most of all it’s fun. Our kids love it. It’s the one camp they look forward to every summer. The camp takes advantage of our area’s natural assets and lets kids learn while having a blast. They can be adventurous, but we always know that they are safe. It’s the kind of camp we wish we could have gone to when we were kids. We recommend this camp to all our friends and feel lucky that we discovered it.

My sons Anthony & Hayden have spent many summers with Eric at Begonia's Summer Camp. What we love most about this camp is that it is small and you are not just a number! Eric is a very hands-on, enthusiastic, and fun...... it reflects in his work with the kids. The kids are eager to get up in the morning and go to camp where they learn so much about nature and come home happily exhausted! Out of five stars......Begonia's Camp is a five!
