Stevens Ranch

Stevens Ranch on the Brazos, near Glen Rose, is open to girls entering grades 2 - 12. Stevens Ranch was first acquired by Circle T Council in 1967, and records of the property date back to 1842. The historic farm house was built around 1936 and restored in 1974 and again in 1981. Two large oaks on the west side of the farm house were examined by a Glen Rose geologist and found to be 100 and 300 years old.

“Stevens is my second home, I love everything about it. Being in the outdoors, nature adventures, and meeting new people. I believe if you spend any time there you will  feel the same way!”

“Stevens Ranch has that camp ‘magic’ that comes into the air sometime between sunset and twilight, and lingers long past the time that you’ve left camp. I still feel the same magic now that I felt as a camper. Camp is such a powerful thing for girls and even staff - no matter how long you’ve been coming to camp, you will always leave a little bit better than you were before.”
