Family Camp

Welcome to Camp Tulequoia! A Family Camp that embodies what a getaway should be for you and your loved ones. Whether your family is the type to explore or relax there is so much to do. From spending the day hiking around camp to the General Grant Tree, to overcoming the ropes course. We will work to provide the activities that you’ll love and enjoy.

Our Programming

Waterfront

The waterfront offers a wide variety of activities for campers of all ages! Campers can go boating, kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, or try their luck at fishing. Campers can also enjoy a refreshing swim in the designated swim zone. And don’t forget to prepare for some splash-filled fun like our cannonball contests or water carnival!

 

Adventure

Our adventure courses include the high ropes course, giant’s ladder, and rock wall. Campers can join us for thrilling experiences high above the ground or team up for exciting challenges together to create memories along the way!

 

 

Youth Programming

At camp we aim to create strong bonds that our campers can cherish for a lifetime. These memories start here. We offer morning programming for campers in three age groups. Our Sapling Center for our littlest campers ages 0-4. Our Kids Club for ages 5-9 and Tween Time for ages 10-13. 

 

Outdoor Games

Camp offers a wide variety of outdoor games and activities for all ages! Families and kids can enjoy activities such as ping pong, basketball, volleyball, pickleball, gaga ball, cornhole and much more. These activities are readily accessible throughout the day, perfect for friendly competition or just some fun!

 

Craft Shop

At the Craft Shop, campers can dive into their creativity! You’ll find materials for making lanyards, painting, crafting with paper, creating shrinky dinks, and even ‘boat regatta’ kits. Let your imagination run wild! We also offer ceramics for purchase, and we’ll fire them in our kiln so they’re ready to take home as a special camp keepsake.

Evening Programs

Each year, we find new ways to make our evenings special with the people you love. As the sun sets over the lake, the fun keeps going! Families can gather for campfire songs, karaoke, family game nights, unwind with a movie in the park and much more. These activities give a warm end to a fun day at camp.

Fishing at Camp

Over the last 5 years the lake has been stocked consistently before the start of the summer with rainbow trout, smallmouth bass, sunfish, golden shiners, and more!

Where can campers fish? 
Campers can fish anywhere in the camp village they are participants of as long as they are not fishing in swim areas. 

Fishing out of boats?
Campers may fish out of row boats only. While in the boats, campers must wear closed toe shoes to ensure no hooks get caught on feet. Campers must also wear their lifejackets at all times and follow all boating procedures.

Boating at Camp

Zip up that lifejacket and join us out in the water! We offer row boats, kayaks, paddleboards and canoes throughout the day. 

How to participate?
All campers are required to wear a lifejacket at all times while on any boats, regardless of swimming ability.
Campers who wish to take out rowboats must wear closed-toe shoes. Since the boats are often used for fishing, there may occasionally be leftover materials such as hooks…ouch! 

Who can go out on boats?
Anyone 18+ can go out on any boat by themselves. For children safety rules, please refer to our family camp handbook or call the office for more details.
