We tend to think of "summer camps" as those places where kids go "off to camp"; but there's a second kind of summer camp, that welcomes the whole family.
You get the Great Outdoors with logistics handled, plus a bunch of daily activities, campfires at night... and price can be as low as under $1000 for a week, for a family of four-- with meals!
Family summer camps typically have beautiful settings, simple lodgings such as cabins or tent-cabins, meals included (probably in a dining hall), and many outdoors and other activities.
In fact, activities push the bounds of the imagination: stilt-walking, gourd-painting, night-time flashlight tag... Adults, meanwhile, might get beer-tasting, art gallery trips, massages, and -- at least one place in Nevada-- a shuttle to casinos; who would've predicted that, at family camp? Some family summer camps have a special focus, such as the performing arts.
