The Tyler Place

The Tyler Place Family Resort transforms evening cocktails and dinner into pure magic for parents. At 5:30 p.m. just when most family resorts hand you back a tired and cranky child, our children's and teen programs re-ignite. So while your kids are having an early dinner and heading out to a pool party, a hayride, or a game of Capture the Flag with their counselors, the two of you are settling down to a glass of wine or a cocktail and dinner. The Tyler Place is one of the only family vacation resorts in the world where parents can dine alone together (quietly) or with friends (raucously) and actually feel GOOD about being separated from their children for a few hours!

The concept of Tyler Place is quite unique and very pleasing to families. It is an upscale camp for adults and children. The activities are well suited to everyone and the group counseling for the children works so well thanks to a very attentive and well-trained staff. Dining for 'Adults-only' is fabulous. Meals are gourmet and great!! It is a win-win situation for everyone. -J & M, Berkeley Heights, NJ, Tyler Up, 8/22-8/18. 2007

The food was excellent! Far better than we could have ever imagined. The staff were all delightful. Amazing to see so many international staff members here. It was great! So many fun things to do -- the week went by far too quickly and still so many things we have yet to experience. The children loved it, as we did! -P & S, Hamilton, Bermuda, Stork, 8/30-9/06. 2008

We are now implementing cocktail hour into Saturday evenings before dinner. Such a great way to connect with your spouse, friends and family after a busy week. -D & K, Novato, CA, Inn #101, 8/02-8/09. 2008

The counselors are so energetic and caring. The schedule and variety of kids activities was great and very creative. (Ninja hour for Sr. Midgets!) Loved having the New York Times each day. Really enjoyed cocktail hour and getting to know some of the other guests. -M & L, Menlo Park, CA, Carriage House II, 6/28-7/05. 2008

We love the kids' camp programs, the pools, the cocktail bar (with no kids), the breakfasts, the time to meet other guests. It's a great week for us. -B & R, Marblehead, MA, Inn #104, 6/28-7/05. 2008

This place is great, but only if you like hours of uninterrupted adult time, sparkling dinner conversation, being spent and happy from having so much to do and smiling, exhausted kids! -J & K, Brooklyn, NY, Elmwood West, 6/30-7/07. 2007

Mention a vacation at Tyler Place and my daughter starts a countdown. My husband and I come from families that love good food and enjoy long dinners. Mealtime at Tyler Place can be a delicious experience. -L & M, Southbury, CT, Champlain, 5/25-6/02. 2007

There are lots of great things - but the best is the combination of family time and fabulous discussions at lunch and dinner. Thanks for the new splash deck - very cool! -V & S, Flemington, NJ, Popcorn, 5/26-6/03. 2006

The food was delicious and interesting and always there were many healthy choices. And some decadent ones! The staff was unfailingly warm and courteous. And our kids loved every minute. I was very impressed with how the Tyler family reached out to new guests during the first cocktail time and later. -J & L, Swarthmore, PA, Ferncroft B, 6/23-6/30. 2007
