For those of you who have sent a 7-year-old to one of these multiweek sleepaway camps: What was it like? How did they do, and how well did the camp handle the supervision?

Thanks to whoever recommended Appel Farm. I heard about it on this site. My kid just had the best 2 weeks of their life and wants to go back for 4 weeks next year. 10/10 highly recommend.

I'm also considering Appel Farm for next summer, for my musical kid who can't decide between her stringed instrument and theatre.

If interested in a sleep away camp, French Woods Festival for Performing Arts, can take more than one intrument and different music genres.
