Camp Kappe is a Catholic youth retreat and camping facility on 130 wooded acres in Plantersville, operated by the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston and founded in 1981. It primarily hosts weekend youth retreats and an accredited four-day School of Environmental Education for fifth graders, plus archdiocesan youth programs, rather than open-enrollment summer camp sessions. Facilities include a chapel, pool, recreation center, archery, canoeing, disc golf, and nature trails.

Powered by GoogleWonderful place with clean cabins and many activities available. I loved the saint-themed cabins.
I cannot say enough positive things about this camp... I didn't know what to expect. I went with my daughter and her classmates as a chaperone, along with another mother from the school. .. The education aspect of it was very Hands-On and entertaining for the children as well as the chaperone. It is a very well organized, a lot of fun. A lot of thought put into it and all around very well worth the trip. I am so happy I went. What a wonderful experience. The staff is also truly insightful, respectful, thoughtful and fun! Don't miss out on this. If you get a chance sign up for one of the camps. You won't regret it
Worst week of both mine and my chaperone's life. Children are forcefully separated from parents and shoved into the muddy wilderness like sacrifices, all while surviving on less than those with war rations had. These experiences do not build character, but fear of the outdoors and it's horrors. I wish I could refund. 0/10
5 star this place was a BLAST!! I went in fifth grade with my diocese of schools and it was amazing. Friendly staff, amazing food, and nice, clean cabins. Definitely recommend it.
My daughter loved it here! She went back in November of 2022 and can I say, it was very very cold! I was the chaperone of her class. The instructers were friendly and funny! The cabins were very clean, and the food was really good👌! I highly recommend to let your kids come to this place because they'll never have the chance to experience it again. 10/10 recommended 👍👍👍
