Retreat Season Details Purpose The retreat season is from mid-August to the end of May. The camp is open to Christian organizations, churches and individuals as a place to get away from their everyday schedule and strengthen their walk with Christ. We welcome guests every day of the week. Services The following are the major services of Camp Tejas that are provided for each retreat group and managed by our staff.

Conference seating capacities vary from 20 to 500 - Sleeping facilities, including private rooms, and bunk houses - Linens and towels are provided in all private rooms - Complete dining and food services Time for a Change of Season > By Kelly Reat retreat director As with the myriad of color variations that are utilized in the décor of facilities here at Camp Tejas, our Father God also gives us a vast variation of color in His creation. To me, this is most vividly noted during autumn, at the beginning of retreat season, as the foliage begins its slow transformation from the vibrant greens to shades of yellow, orange, brown, and red. The air begins to cool at night to accentuate the change and perhaps give us a desire to sit around a warm campfire and peer into the glowing embers of burning wood, mesmerized by the colors within the fire. Even to sit on the banks of one of the lakes here at the camp and see the fall colors and the reflections of a deep blue sky in the water draws me to Him. Without a doubt, God is revealed in His creation. As I experience and meditate on the variety of the seasons God gives us I am often brought to tears of appreciative joy and praise for Him in knowing that He loves me so much that He knows we need change of seasons and has provided that for us as with everything in our lives. He has provided a place for you and me to experience this by way of this camp and retreat center. I encourage those that come here to take the time to walk away from the buildings and activities for just awhile and experience that beautiful creation and ultimately experience a deeper appreciation for a loving Father or perhaps meet Him for the first time. >> - Use of all recreation rooms, courts, and equipment - Climbing wall, land zip line, and group initiative challenge course - Hayrides and campfires - Large pool complex with lazy river and 100’ slide - Plus much more!
