No judgement. We need to go away for emotional necessity. Any info on pesach programs that are really nice and well run?
Yeshivish, and range of kids from 1-16, so looking for great singers/entertainment.
Not looking for a cheapy place. Something nice but not crazy expensive.
Looking into Aryeh Cuisine, and Greenwalds so far, is there anything else? And any info on these 2 programs?
Thanks!!!

Best place, I’ve been many times, and fits in with what you’re looking for —JHC (Jewish heritage center) they use Greenwalds. They have beautiful accommodations, amazing food, great shiurim, a ton of entertainment for kids, babysitting programs, trips.. everything really beautiful. You’d love it. I also was at Gateways and a few others, I don’t want to name but not so good. Love JHC every single time.

No. It’s cheaper but you get what you pay for

Jewish heritage with greenwalds was nice I went twice. Yeshivish crowd good kids program, good food. I didn’t really go to shiurim or the adult extras, but they seemed to be enjoyable things.

Looks like they are trying to raise the bar this year. I wonder if it will end up being more on par with the others now. They have a full lineup of entertainment and speakers that looks comparable.

We have been to Chef Flam program the past few years. The food is good but this year they hired Chop a Nosh (so even better) and someone well renowned to run the daycamp. I’m looking forward to it being even better this year. They aren’t cheap but it’s a nice crowd and my kids (9 & 16) have a blast every year.

Best thing you need to do is figure out what's important to you. Sounds like price and crowd. Then send an email with some questions to feel them out.

JHC is a solid option.

We’ve gone a few times. Very simple but good program- not crazy over the top. Food is very good and filling, tea room is simple but decent. They have a camp for kids and entertainment but nothing crazy. We were happy there. Definitely not a keeping up with the Klein’s types of program. People are very nice and low key normal ppl. I’d recommend
