The Tyler Place

Kayaking and canoeing are favorite all-inclusive adult and family activities at The Tyler Place Family Resort. We have such an extensive fleet of kayaks and canoes, all you do is grab your paddles and life jackets (and even a picnic basket) and take off for a short exploration of Kingfisher Bay or as long as it takes you to paddle the two miles to the Canadian Border or the 5600-acre Wildlife Refuge about a mile away. Guided kayak and canoe touring with naturalists and guides on the lake and nearby rivers are always popular with adults. These trips are all-inclusive, as well, and we have canoe and kayak trailers, so we can take you on more extended trips to explore our corner of Vermont.

"We honestly loved it ALL - the food, the wonderful staff, the activities but here are the standouts: Water activities - my kids did it all: Banana boat, kayaking, fishing and more - great variety of activities for kids & adults. Also, everyone is so willing to accommodate any need. Thank you!" -G & M, Baltimore, MD, Sandpiper, 8/25-9/01. 2007

"As promised, our kids loved the camp program from the very first day. They were able to do so many things - from fishing to Pirate boat rides - that they never get a chance to do at home. We loved the lake and the sailing, kayaking, pontoon boat..." -G & J, New York, NY, Woodcrest, 8/25-9/01. 2007
