Adventure Valley is the best Day Camp in Oakville. Ashlee and her team run an amazing program full of fun, kindness, and lots of laughs. It's a well-rounded day camp with very well-trained staff who are attuned to every camper. My daughter absolutely loves going to camp every single day. The programming is so much fun that she goes to Adventure Valley the whole summer, and we don’t need to look for other camps to fill the summer months. We’re so grateful for the Adventure Valley team—thank you for making our daughter’s summers memorable and so much fun.

The staff were friendly, professional, and clearly invested in each camper’s well-being and growth.

This camp helped my child grow in so many wonderful ways—both personally and socially. They gained confidence in trying new things, learned how to collaborate with others, and developed stronger communication and problem-solving skills. I also noticed real growth in their independence and responsibility; they took pride in preparing for each day and reflecting on what they learned. Beyond the practical skills, the camp nurtured their curiosity and creativity, helping them see learning as something joyful and exciting. It’s amazing how much maturity and enthusiasm they came away with after just a few weeks.
