History
Buffalo Gap Retreat's cabins are part of an old Jewish sleep-away camp called Buffalo Gap Camp dating back to 1954. We are restoring the property to it's former glory, maintenance, and landscaping grandeur, as well as access to all improved facilities. We thank you for your support and hope you enjoy your stay!
