61 Years of Camping

The Conference center was built in 1977.  The Center has the ability to hold 92 guests over night with conference facilities for over 200. We offer a full service dinning room with meal service. Although primarily Scout group use, the conference center is avaliable to any non-profit organization.  We are home to many church retreats, Red Cross training events and local agencies of Southeast Texas
