★★★★★David BWonderful, peaceful place, offers great group experience for retreat and team building. Thankful for the opportunity to stay here! Staff is friendly and welcoming. Food is good.
★★★★★Jeff RoseMy son went with the deaf blind group, and they all had a great time.
★★★★★Dana RowanBeautiful spot along Turtle Creek.
★★★★★Sunnee RakowitzWhat a wonderful place to spend time! Dorms are great for adults, kids, too. Nice food and FABULOUS PEOPLE. They were welcoming, friendly, and well, just so darned nice to our group. I suspect they are that way to everyone. We had a large room in which to sew, cut, quilt and visit in with good lighting, tables, restroom and fridge. The dorms are comfy adult sized bunk beds with ceiling fans, showers and modern restrooms. To top it off, there are rocking chairs out on the porch where you can sit and listen to the quiet of nature. The squirrel in the big pecan tree had a bit to say this morning. If you get the chance to attend a retreat or plan one, this is the place to go, just a few miles outside of Kerrville, Texas
★★★★★KateI love this place!! I stayed only for one night for a college retreat and I had a blast. The man that runs it is super genuine and friendly and I couldn't help but just have fun. The cabins are SO clean and SO big!! There are a ton of different activities to participate in since there is a lot of land. Even though I didn't get the opportunity to go to camp here, just staying the one night and being able to work alongside with everyone for the two days made it so memorable. The staff welcomes you with open arms and you can't help but just feel at home.
