Camp Pricing & Financial Aid
One place to compare every camp’s cost and find the option that fits your family.
How our pricing works
Ferncliff always offers our three-tier pricing system, every session, every year, so there’s a price that works for every family. Tier 1 is the true cost of camp. Tier 2 is a partially subsidized rate. Tier 3 is a fully subsidized rate, set for families who just need a little help.
Choose whichever tier suits your family best. There’s no income verification, no forms to complete, and no need to explain your choice.
No matter what price you choose, the amenities, activities, and camp experience are exactly the same.
Need more support? Scholarships are available. Financial aid applications are part of the standard camp registration process.

What your price covers
Every camper gets the same experience at every tier. Ferncliff is accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA), which means we have submitted to a rigorous review of up to 266 standards across many areas of camp, from health and staffing to supervision and safety. Accreditation has to be maintained to stay current, and only about 25% of camps in the United States are accredited.

Financial Aid
Beyond the tiers, Ferncliff also has some limited campership funds reserved to help families who need additional financial assistance. Many Presbyterian churches also provide assistance for children and youth to attend programs — ask your pastor if your church has a discount code for camps!
Financial aid applications are part of the standard camp registration process.
Deposit and Refund Policy
A $50 non-refundable deposit is due at registration. Balance is due two weeks prior to your session.
Refunds may be given up to 15 days prior to the start of camp, minus the $50 non-refundable deposit fee. No refunds will be given within 15 days of the start of camp, as staffing is determined by the number of participants.
