H. E. Butt Foundation
H. E. Butt Foundation
The H. E. Butt Foundation is a Texas Hill Country nonprofit near Leakey whose programmes include the H. E. Butt Foundation Camp, Laity Lodge Youth Camp and Laity Lodge Family Camp alongside community engagement work. This listing is the foundation itself rather than a camp a parent enrols in directly: the youth camp families register for is Laity Lodge Youth Camp, whose sessions, ages and fees are published on its own separate site, so no dates, ages or prices could be recorded from this domain.
The practical details
We list only what the camp itself publishes, and programs change — dates, prices, ages and availability can all move after we check. Confirm the details on the camp’s own website and contact H. E. Butt Foundation directly before you register or pay. Last checked August 2026.

★★★★★Stephanie B KindAbsolutely breathtaking scenery, the staff were fantastic and the camp is very well kept. The staff were so kind and helpful, they patrolled the pathways to the river and between camps. The inspection team was very thorough and super friendly, they were so knowledgeable about the plants and animals in the area. We had great conversations with them as we went through the inspection process at checkout. The accommodations were great, in my opinion the beds comfortable.
★★★★★John RodriguezI frequently provide lifeguard services to groups who utilize the HEB Fondation Camp. We were at the Headwaters location, which is one of the newer camps and it was a great deal of fun. After the scheduled swim, my 2 lifeguards enjoyed a moment going down the slide. I've been going and providing lifeguards to the various Camps at the HEB Fondation for over 25 years and Hope to continue for many more years ahead! -John R
★★★★★Roxanne Gonzales PerezLove, love, love this place. Just know there is no cell phone service whatsoever and it's quiet. Lots of beautiful scenery. Cabins are nice and clean. Our school goes here every year for a 4th,5th,and 6th grade field trip. The kids love it every year.
★★★★★Cindy AlvarezI had the privilege of attending a retreat from our organization Iglesia Santuario de Dios at H.E. Butt Foundation Camp back in October 2023 and I can confidently say it was an experience like no other. The place we stayed was absolutely wonderful. Nestled in a serene and peaceful environment, it was the perfect setting for reflection and spiritual growth. The accommodations were comfortable and welcoming, allowing us to feel at home as we focused on deepening our connection with God. What truly made this retreat special, however, was the powerful connection we were able to make with the Holy Spirit. There were moments of pure peace and divine presence during our time together, whether through prayer, worship, or simply sitting in silence. It was a time of spiritual renewal, and we left feeling closer to God than we ever expected. Overall, this retreat was a beautiful, transformative experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a deeper relationship with God and a peaceful place to reflect and grow.
★★★★★Adam N-AFantastic camp location. Deep blue waters, miles of hiking, fantastic amenities. If you get the opportunity to go, it is a great way to enjoy the Texas hill country.
