Lake Rickabear Camp
Thank you for an incredible Summer Camp 2026! Be sure to check back soon for Summer Camp 2027 details and registration information.
At Lake Rickabear Camp in Kinnelon, New Jersey, our 332 acres include a beautiful 40-acre, spring-fed lake, perfect for pedal boating, paddle boarding, and row boating. A long stretch of soft, sandy beach lines our swimming area. Our camp also has an archery range, low ropes challenge course, zip line, equestrian center, pickleball courts, basketball, a junior scooter track, Gaga pit, beach volleyball, and more.
Lake Rickabear's camping facilities include all-season lodges, yurts, platform tents, and pitch-your-own-tent campsites. A spacious pavilion, campfire amphitheater, and lakeside picnic grove provide lots of opportunity for outdoor fun.
''The campers spent the whole day outside, doing all kinds of activities, like paddle boating, archery, yoga/meditation, zip line, and arts and crafts. They had swim lessons in the lake every day. My daughter’s swimming skills improved tremendously! She can actually do the butterfly now, and learned how to swim properly." -- Julia, parent of a Lake Rickabear Camper
