Fred's Camp is described as an urban summer day camp with an overnight camp philosophy and is noted as the No. 1 Children's Summer Camp in Chicago. It is the area's only family-owned and operated camp for 30 years and offers both Before and After Care.

Parents have shared that their children enjoyed the camp experience, including comments about having a blast, becoming a real swimmer, loving camp, friends, activities, and counselors, and being sad to see camp end, with plans to return the following year.
