About TY

Welcoming campers since
1919

The natural place to make lifelong friends.

At Tranquillity Camp, we uphold our generational traditions and intentional simplicity, assuring our long standing practice of always doing what’s right.

For more than one hundred years, Tranquillity has been a special place full of compassion, family traditions, and endless but flexible activities. We are a home away from home for passionate staff and returning campers to renew the forever friendships and revisit the lifelong memories made here.

All our camp family is accepted for who they are, and everyone is known by both staff and leadership. What’s more, we are rooted in Jewish-led values that welcome all.

At Tranquillity Camp, lifelong bonds are created, and lives are transformed. 

Join us and find your place among friends that feel like family.
