The Tyler Place Family Resort

Since 1933, Tyler Place Family Resort has been specializing in family vacations. Unlike many resorts that focus on the kindergarten and grade school crowds, this one caters to all ages, from newborns (musical games, bikes with baby seats, a fleet of strollers) to teens (water skiing, ropes courses, late breakfasts). Those who came as kids when Tyler Place first opened now bring their great-grandchildren to participate in eight individual toddler to teen programs each day. It's hard to name a distraction you won't find at this 165-acre lakefront property: a petting farm, cooking, tree forts, archery and radish hunting in the children’s garden, to name a few. There are special weeklong family retreats, and plenty of adult pursuits, like yoga, art classes and excursions to the vineyards of Quebec. For those who need a breather between all the activities, even naps are on the agenda.
