TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
Tucked into the woods, the property offers hours of trails across rolling terrain that gently drops toward the Lampasas River. All major improvements sit up on a ridge, well above the FEMA floodplain. From there, several wooded ravines--great for hiking and exploring--lead down to the river. Much of the land is shaded by old-growth cedar and oak, giving the entire property a secluded, park-like feel.

AREA HISTORY
Now known as Peaceable Kingdom by Variety (PK), the retreat has long served as a cherished haven for thousands of children each year, helping them build confidence, independence, and mobility. The 112-acre property was intentionally designed around the idea that growth, healing, and insight happen naturally through time outdoors--and its landscape continues to support that mission today.
