View from Ford CabinKICKAPOO RETREAT CENTER is nestled in the foothills of Kerrville, Texas and is far from the hectic routine of everyday life. This is the special magic of the beautiful Texas Hill Country. Running through the property is picturesque Turtle Creek, a spring fed tributary of the Guadalupe River suitable for all sorts of water activities.


ACTIVITIES

    Since 1925 Kickapoo Kamp has operated as a private girls summer camp so the list of recreational activities is extensive. Some are available whenever you want them - tennis, camping, fishing, picnics, games, table tennis, hiking, walking, campfires or just plain relaxing by the beautiful and tranquil Turtle Creek. Other activities will be available upon request - horseback riding, canoeing, water skiing, swimming, riflery, and archery.     Kickapoo Retreat Center requires and provides certified staff for horseback riding and water activities when they are requested. Kickapoo has a sports field, riding arena, two sand volleyball courts, basketball goal, lighted tennis courts, riding trails, campfire sites and equipment for movies, softball, soccer and kickball. Away from the center of activity is a site for outdoor cooking and camping next to Turtle Creek.


FACILITIES

    The "Lodge" is in the center of the property and features a large fireplace and dining area.  When not used for meals the Lodge can serve as a large meeting room or can be used by two or more small groups. An amphitheater and two open-air covered pavilions, one with a stage, can be used for special activities, movies, talent shows or a group get together.

bunk beds

   The Retreat Center will accommodate guests in rustic cabins that sleep 8 to 14 in standard summer camp bunk beds. Each cabin has its own private bathroom, heaters for cold nights and lots of hot water.

"Ford Cabin" has a fireplace, cozy living room/dining area, and kitchen. It’s ideal for small groups or large families.
