Tumbleweed Day Camp
Your Summer Adventure Begins Here
Our rustic site is located on over 100 acres of the Santa Monica Mountains in the Brentwood section of Los Angeles. If you're looking for swimming, horseback riding, rock climbing, arts and crafts, nature study, hiking and more, visit the next few pages!
Tumbleweed programs have been providing children with a fun, safe and challenging day camp experience for over fifty-five years. Mature counselors and specialists work with experienced program directors to ensure a diverse and high quality program for campers of all ages. Bus transportation is included in the tuition.
We provide door-to-door bus transportation to most of the Westside including areas in Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Brentwood, Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades, and Westwood. We provide express stops for families inside and outside of these areas.
Choose from our great summer programs: Tumbleweed North, Tumbleweed South, Tumbleweed Ranch, or our off-site High Adventure Beach Club program.
