Founded in 1876, the Appalachian Mountain Club is the oldest conservation, education and recreation organization in the United States. The AMC promotes the protection, enjoyment, and wise use of the mountains, rivers and trails of the Appalachian region. The AMC encourages the involvement of all people in its mission and activities, through its membership, programs, policies, and procedures.

Three Mile Island Camp (TMI) is a rustic retreat owned by the Appalachian Mountain Club. For over 100 years the camp has provided guests (who we call campers) with an opportunity to leave hectic, technology dependent lives for a vacation in natural surroundings. The camp is a 43-acre island located on New Hampshire’s Lake Winnipesaukee and is frequented by families, couples, and individuals who stay one or two weeks in simple, lakeshore cabins without electricity. Their days are spent relaxing, swimming, sailing, canoeing, fishing, playing tennis, reading, and talking with others. Limited programming is offered during the week for interested campers. The facilities include: a main lodge; dock area; 51 lakeshore cabins and tents; outhouses and other buildings; boats and recreational equipment; located on a forested island with walking paths throughout. Three family-style meals are served daily. A dedicated volunteer committee provides management, operational oversight, and guidance.
