Texas Business Retreats at Lake Godstone: a private 188-acre lake offsite near Graford, Texas, 90 minutes from Fort Worth. A classroom for forty, Wi-Fi across the campus, a private gun range, a stocked lake and lodging for 35 to 100. One organization at a time.
Where the team sleeps
The Lodge for the group; the Guest Home and cabins for anyone who needs a door and a desk.
Hear first when this host opens direct rates or adds a new place.
Team building here does not need a facilitator. Split into boats for a bass tournament, run the range, take the UTV around the trail, and settle it around the six-foot fire pit.
Your team will not be checking email from a hotel ballroom here. They will be on a porch over a private lake, ninety minutes from Fort Worth, with a classroom for the working sessions and 188 acres for everything else.
We host one organization at a time. The ranch, the range, the boats and the trails are yours for the duration. Dom and Carol live on site and handle the logistics so you can run the agenda.
Bring the whole company. Leave with a team.

Graford, Texas, between Possum Kingdom and Jacksboro
4636 Halsell Ranch Road, Graford. From Graford take Highway 4 north seven miles, turn west onto Halsell Ranch Road and follow the gravel four miles; the lake is on your right. About 90 minutes from Fort Worth and two hours from Dallas.
Rifle, pistol, skeet and archery, included with the Lodge.
The range
Dirt target hills at 50, 100, 200 and 300 yards
The range sits on the far side of the ranch with the hills as a backstop. Rifle lanes run out to 300 yards with target hills at each distance, there is a separate pistol range, a skeet setup and an archery line, shooting tables under cover, and a porta-potty so nobody has to drive back to the Lodge. Because the whole ranch is reserved for one group, there is nobody downrange and nobody next door.
Doc’s Memorial Outdoor Adventure ran a middle-school youth camp here with firearm training, and Christian Outdoor Ministries held a Blast and Cast fishing and firearm-safety weekend for youth and families. Both came back. If your church or club runs a similar program, the range, the classroom and the campgrounds are built for it.
