Timberlock is one of the oldest summer family resorts in the Adirondacks, enjoying a spectacular wilderness lakeside setting surrounded in all directions by miles of forest preserve and mountain views.  Timberlock is for those who would slow their pace, step back a page in time and sample a life close to the land.

Timberlock is not a luxury resort.  We have elected to remain rustic and informal while retaining many of the original camp traditions.  We still split piles of stove wood, light with gas lamps, walk the same 100-year-old paths and represent the wishes of our guests to remain "rustic but not rough".  Timberlock is more than just a vacation. It is an experience.

Your Hosts

The Catlin family has owned and operated Timberlock since 1964. Bruce and Holly Catlin are the current hosts with their three children, Caroline, Gus and Nick. Bruce’s parents, Dick and Barb, ran the camp for thirty-five years and continue to assist. Dick spent summers as a boy at the camp in the 40’s. Bruce's sister, Toni Catlin, is pursuing a career in music and often helps out at Timberlock. In the off season, Bruce and Holly live in Lincoln, Vermont, Dick and Barb live in Addison, Vermont.
