ABOUT

Rocky River Ranch has been committed to inspiring independence in girls and young women since 1953.


Our mission is to create an engaging environment where girls can discover their strengths, learn leadership skills and try something new every day while making life-long friendships.

The ranch's brand, the Triple R, stands for respect for self, respect for others and respect for nature. With these virtues in mind, our leadership program encourages girls to be strong and to become strong women. To foster this strength, we've built a creative, challenging and nurturing place, where each child is encouraged and celebrated.

It's more than just a summer camp with cabins, horses and cedar trees. Rocky River is known for its spirit. Campers today sing the same songs, chant the same cheers, tell the same campfire stories and laugh at the same punch lines as campers did 60 years ago. Traditions like the half-a-century-long rivalry between our camp teams (Cowpokes and Wranglers), watching a movie under the stars at the open-air Corral Theatre, the nutty Miss RRR Contest — all of these create an experience your daughter will always treasure.

Tradition gives kids a sense of belonging to a family, bound together by something very strong and magical. That bond — together with friendships and warm memories — is what our girls take home from camp and keep with them all the days of their lives. And that bond? That's Rocky River Ranch.

Rocky River Ranch experience

 

Rocky River was a HUGE part of my childhood and I cherish all of the wonderful memories I have. Sandy, Skeet, Jim, Rue, Arthur — y'all were the best extended family a kid could ever ask for. My favorite cabin, Bar K, holds fond memories as well. The stories I have would take days to repeat and the friendships I made were oh so REAL!

I think camp was very beneficial for my daughter last year. She came home with new experiences that she will never forget. It's something that she is able to share with her friends and schoolmates too. It made a huge impact on her and I hope by going again this year that she continues to grow and mature as a thoughtful young lady.

I loved my counselors, I loved the river, and even learned how to sail on Canyon Lake. I still sing all the old camp songs that we sang every day after lunch to my little girl, who's five, every night before bed. I always end with, 'I love the mountains, I love the rolling hills ...' and then Taps.

I will forever remember Rocky River Ranch as the greatest place on earth! To this day I still remember the nine summers that I spent at Rocky River Ranch. I hope to have my children experience camp as I did so many years ago.

I had a wonderful experience of being a counselor at RRR 1960-61 and 1966-67. Those first 2 years I knew and loved both Mama Knolk and Jane. Later, I was there with Skeet and Sandy. I have great memories of all those special people and all the fun times at camp. I'm so glad the camp is still going strong!

Rocky River Ranch is like my second home. It is such a comfortable, fun place to be! I am planning to be here as long as possible, and want my future daughters and granddaughters to experience this camp. Rocky River has a special place in my heart, and is a big part of my life.
