In 2017, we proudly introduced our 35-person Lodge and Lake Godstone™ to the market. The response was immediate and enthusiastic, with families, church youth groups, and sports teams flocking to our unique venue for retreats of all kinds and sizes. From birthday and graduation celebrations to family reunions spanning Texas and Oklahoma, junior and high school sports team camps, church programs for youth and adults, and even corporate retreats, Lake Godstone™ has quickly become a beloved destination. With diverse offerings and a setting that appeals to all, we provide the perfect backdrop for unforgettable experiences.
Since our launch, we’ve significantly expanded Lake Godstone’s amenities to enhance your retreat experience. We've added five partially covered docks equipped with swim ladders and canoe moorings, seven kayaks, five canoes, a rowboat, four pedal boats, and two water lily pads. Our sports field complex now features a lit basketball court, a sand volleyball court, and practice fields for baseball and soccer. Explore our observatory, four miles of mountain biking and hiking trails around the forested lake and upper wooded meadow, and two new fishing ponds.
For wildlife enthusiasts, we've introduced four feed and water stations with viewing towers, a bird-viewing house overlooking our beaver pond, and six miles of all-weather roads to navigate our 188-acre wildlife and nature paradise. To further elevate your experience, UTVs, a golf cart, a pontoon boat, kayaks, canoes, and pedal boats are available for rent.
We’ve expanded our offerings to provide even more comfort and convenience at Lake Godstone™. Our venue now includes a three-bedroom guest home, four fully furnished cabins, and three primitive cabins. For group gatherings, we’ve added two group campgrounds, seven secluded RV and tent campsites, and multiple primitive tenting sites nestled among the trees.
A new comfort station with restrooms and showers now serves our group campgrounds and campsites. Each site is equipped with power, water, picnic tables, charcoal grills, and large fire pits. The group campgrounds feature shelters, with the "Refuge" campground offering a unique tree house shelter. Additionally, our campground office features a small store and a kids' sand playground, making Lake Godstone™ the perfect place for both relaxation and adventure.
Lake Godstone™ offers an extensive network of trails and facilities designed for exploration and enjoyment. Our campus includes six miles of all-weather gravel trails and an additional four miles of dirt, grass, and rock mountain bike (non-motorized) hiking trails that wind around the forested lake and through upper wooded meadows. Bird watchers will appreciate the bird viewing station overlooking the upper pond, along with a platform bird feeder and birdbath station.
For wildlife enthusiasts, we provide five deer stands equipped with heaters and seating, strategically placed around the campus overlooking deer and wildlife feeding stations. Our sports complex includes a lit basketball court, sand volleyball, and a baseball/soccer practice field, along with a new observatory featuring a telescope available for use by trained guests.
Anglers will enjoy our new one-acre crappie pond, stocked in the fall of 2020, complete with a shelter, bench, water, power, and a charcoal grill. For those interested in shooting sports, we offer a gun range for guests who book the entire ranch campus, with a licensed marshal overseeing the facility during use. Additionally, we provide a horse stall with a small fenced pasture for our equestrian guests.
