U Bar U Retreat & Conference Center is 142 rugged ranch acres of Texas Hill Country and is a great place to bring your congregation for:

    • church retreats
    • covenant groups
    • coming of age
    • stewardship planning
    • governance workshops
    • birding
    • fossil hunting
    • botanizing
  • intergenerational service projects
  • music programs
  • rites of passage
  • native plant xeriscaping
  • story telling
  • men's and women's groups
  • sun and star gazing
  • ministers’ weekend programs

The site is completely fenced with a solar-powered entry gate. The buildings are three cottages, a storage barn, a sheep shearers' shed, and a 3100 square foot meetinghouse. Two of the cottages are straw bale construction. There is a 35' diameter circular limestone rock pool with a deck, two labyrinths, and a fire circle.  The water is straight out of the Edward's Aquifer from a 300' well powered by a windmill and an electric pump.
