Pulling your teenage kids from their friends, sports, and after-school activities for a family getaway is a risky proposition, but luckily for you, Woodloch Resort is built around endless excitement and family bonding. We’ve been providing the best vacations for teens in North America since we opened for business in 1958.

Nightly Entertainment
Woodloch Resort wouldn’t be home to the best vacations for teens in North America without our nightly, teen-friendly live entertainment inside our on-site Nightclub. We book some of the most talented musicians, magicians, comedians, and entertainers in the New York City area. You can find live music on our big Nightclub stage, or at an outdoor firepit and even lakeside. Typically, DJ dance parties follow the live acts, so your teens can make new friends while dancing the night away.
