Kent

Not as far north as many of the historic East Coast camps, KenMont, which was established in 1924, is a top-notch all-around camp in Kent, Connecticut. It’s the brother camp of KenWood Camp for Girls (also a great option), but it has its own facilities and staff. It’s definitely more of an all-boys camp than coed—the staff estimates that the boys spend about 90 percent of their time at camp with other boys. There are two four-week sessions, for boys ages eight to fifteen.
