Love this place! Great atmosphere and spacious campground. Lodging is nice, clean, and well air conditioned.
Located in a really nice neighborhood. Chris and his team are amazing grounds keepers and managers. Really kind and helpful and the way Camp Bob Waldorf gives back to the local youth and in need communities is deeply touching.
Food service is great - just need an upgrade in food quality.

Overall, love this venue and would definitely return/recommend.

Camp Bob Waldorf has played an instrumental role in all 3 of my kids lives. My oldest child now 17 started attending the camp 10 years ago each summer back when it was still called Max Strauss. My Children attend the non-Jewish sessions that are 10 days long. I cannot comment on the quality of the Jewish session, other than the same staff are at all the sessions offered. We have attended other camps, but by far this is everyone’s favorite. The camp is very well organized and structured with daily activities and downtime. Don’t send your kids here if they want to just hangout doing their own thing. The camp grounds are well maintained with air conditioned cabins. The nurse and staff are on top of health checks, even through the pandemic they took great precautions to keep all the kids and staff safe. The camp is fully decked out with a swimming pool, animals, hiking, cooking, climbing walls etc. Gaga ball. my kids have always enjoyed their counselors and the other staff. When I pick them up they are in tears not wanting to leave. CBW have excellent responses to conflicts between campers and inclusivity training of the staff. My kids have never nit once had a bullying issue at CBW. As a plus, My kids have made friends with kids from all over the city and kept in touch with them because of their time together at CBW. The only improvement I can recommend would be the food. The kids say it’s pretty terrible. My oldest is a CIT (counselor in training) and even after this last summer 23’ he plans to return as a counselor because he loves the camp so much. If I could give 10 stars I would. We love CBW!!!!!

Great camp for kids! Overnight summer camp, archery, pool, rock wall, ropes course, green house, fire pits, cabins, horse back riding etc... Went here when I was a kid and loved it. Associated with the Jewish Big Brother program. I mentor a boy ( my little brother) who now goes to camp and has been at least six times and loves it. Just the best!

I attended Max Straus camp at the end of summer, 1960. In fact, I had my 14th birthday there. If memory serves me correctly, back then the camp lasted for two weeks. Those days at camp, were some of the best days that I can recall as a kid. I was born and raised in L.A., and when the chance was presented to me to attend that summer, I jumped at it. If given the chance, I would have liked to stay there the whole summer. I will always remember with great fondness, all the wonderful kids and staff that I met, and all the fun we had, each and every day. We had a great counselor, who was assigned to our cabin, his name was Norm. So, where ever you are Norm...thank you very much, and thanks to all there that made my camp experience so wonderful......RD

My daughter has been going to this camp for nearly 10 years and she loves it! If you have an opportunity for your child to go I would greatly suggest it
