Get Back to your roots at summer camp for adults

The Berkshires weekend is our most popular getaway, hosted at Eisner Camp in the heart of the Berkshire Mountains, halfway between Boston and NYC. Situated on a sprawling 600-acre estate that served as the former manor of several notable residents, Eisner's landscape integrates historic buildings and modern facilities into a natural setting whose beauty is second to none. Featuring two large heated swimming pools, high and low ropes courses, a giant swing and zipline, manicured fields for outdoor sports, turn-of-the-century barns that house fine arts and dance studios, a sparkling lake, and miles of hiking along the Appalachian Trail, Eisner is the picture-perfect escape for a blissful weekend packed with opportunities for adventure.

Due to high demand for the Berkshires weekends, we are offering two sessions for 2026. Spaces fill up quickly -- there is typically a long waitlist for these camps -- so don't wait until it's too late to register!

You’ll get to customize each day by choosing from over 70 classic and out-of-the-box camp activities. While we encourage you to try something new, this weekend is yours to relax and recharge the way you want. Start your morning with sunrise yoga with a live DJ by the lake, or just roll into breakfast in time for the mimosa cheer cart, coffee canoe, and freshly baked breakfast. Between electives, check your camp mailbox, grab a snack at Bubbe’s Beer Garden, and embrace activities that make you forget to check your phone. Evening program favorites include Trybal's Got Talent, Are You Smarter than a 90s Kid, campfire drum circle and storytelling, epic themed dance parties, and late night drag karaoke with a cereal bar... just to name a few. Every year we introduce new and reimagined activities unfound anywhere else. No matter what you choose, there is surprise and delight layered into each part of the day.
