Camp No Counselors

Camp No Counselors is a purpose-built adult camp in the classic sleepaway lane, based in New York / California / Texas. This is not a retreat center with a camp theme bolted on; the format is a weekend-length sleepaway with programmed activities, communal meals, and the deliberate structure of a real summer camp, aimed squarely at grown-ups.

The Shark Tank-famous brand that turned adult summer camp into a category, Camp No Counselors runs three-night, all-inclusive weekends at rented kids' camps in New York, California, and Texas. Expect camp olympics, lake days, themed parties, open bars, and live music by the campfire. After a quiet stretch around the pandemic it is fully back, with multiple 2026 sessions selling out.

The experience

Practical picture: the format is weekend sleepaway (3 nights, all-inclusive). A short sleepaway is the most forgiving on-ramp into camp life, and this one follows that playbook: a couple of nights in, all logistics handled. This is an adults-only environment: no kids programming, no family sessions mixed in.

Cost

Published pricing: $750-949 USD. That is squarely in the mainstream band for adult camp: most all-inclusive weekend sleepaways in North America charge somewhere between $400 and $1,000. Check exactly what the ticket bundles before comparing prices; here, lodging and meals are wrapped in, which makes the sticker price more honest than it first looks.

Where and when

It runs in multiple locations (New York, California, Texas), so check which edition is nearest before assuming a flight is required. Season and dates, as best we can verify: 2026: TX Apr 2-5 (sold out), NY May 22-25, CA Aug 13-16, NY Sep 4-7; FL waitlisted for 2027.
