    Guadalupe River RV Park is located just three miles West of US Hwy 281 or just 7 miles North of Texas Hwy 46 (24.5 miles Northwest of New Braunfels Texas) on Spring Branch Road on the crown jewel of the Hill Country, the beautiful Guadalupe River. Welcome to the Beautiful Texas Hill Country. We have created a family oriented RV park and campgrounds that we hope to further develop to become a resort that you will want to return to year after year. Within the park there is seven-tenths of a mile of Guadalupe River frontage. One man made access point that is a stone stairway down to the river. All other access points are natural. The Texas-sized RV spaces are some of the largest in the industry with 97' pull-thus that are 39 feet wide totaling over 3,500 square feet of space! There are also some smaller RV sites for the more compact units. Spacious tile restrooms and showers are located within close proximity to the tent camping area and the RV sites. Long and short term guests are welcome, and whether you are on your own or have a large group, we welcome all with fun and friendly service.

    Flowing over and around huge slabs of limestone, the Pedernales River can be turbulent. But most often it is tranquil, and a great place to relax and recharge. We are just 30 miles west of Austin. Come over for an afternoon swim or hike, or load up your gear for an overnight adventure. The river awaits! Choose a site with water and electricity or hike to a primitive site. Bring your group to the Youth Group Camp or Equestrian Group Camp.

    Nice place, arrive early for instructions

    Beautiful location and facilities. It was difficult for late arrival to see and erroneously enter private cow pastures. Because we arrived late, we had no instructions on locked shower room. Get instructions be c or arrival. Quiet and relaxing. Worth it to spend more time hear.

    Great place

    I tent camped for several days here. The staff are helpful, bathrooms are super clean with soap, decent water pressure and everything is so well kept. I was thoroughly impressed and will be back to try the other sites. I stayed at turtle falls. It was so peaceful listening to the water all night.

    RV beware

    No shade...none.  Right next to busy highway so lots of traffic noise. To get to see river you need to go through high weeds.  

    NO BATHROOMS OR SHOWERS. NOOO POOL!  FIRE ANTS EVERYWHERE.  THIS IS NOT A RESORT! 

    YOU MAY PAY SIGNIFICANTLY MORE AT REAL RESORTS IN THE AREA BUT IT WOULD BE WORTH IT IN THE 94 DEGREE HEAT WITH ABSOLUTELY NO SHADE. STAYED 4 NIGHTS EVEN WITH AC ON CONTINUOUSLY COULD NOT COOL DOWN RV UNTIL AFTER 8PM.

    Canopy Luxury RV Resort

    Luxury RV Park worth the price.

    Honestly, the price wasn't too bad. Gated community with concierge service to your site. Most sites had some degree of shade and a decent amount of privacy. The pool and shower facilities are very nice and clean. The 2 dog parks (split into 2 sections each for small and large...so 4 dog parks) really helped keep our dogs entertained. Great rotation of food trucks and activities for kids. 100% recommended for a RV Resort stay.

    Pecan RV Park

    Hidden riverside gem

    This is an older park, but the river access makes up for the outdated but clean facilities. Our side of the park was along the river and had great shade. The other side had no trees and seemed to be more full-time folks. Facilities are a little dated but clean. There are tons of full-time folks, and I can see why. The river is right there. Great river access and space to sit and watch the tubers go by. Very few bells and whistles. Some folks said it was much more community oriented before the new managers took over. They used to do movies and food trucks, and things just looked better. But it was nice. It was expensive for what it was, but again... the river access made it great.

    Great spot close to Austin and Lockhart

    This was our very 1st RV park. It set the tone for all our spots moving forward. Clean bathrooms, clean pool/hot tub, clean laundry, well stocked store, gated community, great walking trail around a big lake and near big long horn cows. Met some big white neighbor dogs on the trail, but they kept their distance. Seems like the middle of nowhere, but it's really close to Austin, lockhart, Circuit of the America's. We stayed a week. Will stay again.

    Our stay at this RV resort in Fredericksburg was nothing short of amazing! Under new management, the improvements are clear, and the staff is absolutely top-notch– friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure a great experience. This resort is perfect for families, with plenty of space, clean facilities, and a welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home. One of the highlights was the fantastic on-site restaurant and bar, where we enjoyed delicious meals and drinks. The barrel room was a unique touch, giving us a fun, upscale experience right on the property. The resort is spotless, and it’s clear that a lot of care goes into maintaining the grounds and facilities. Fredericksburg itself offers endless activities, from visiting local wineries to exploring the charming shops downtown.

    Stopped here for a night driving cross country. I was blown away by the cleanliness of the park. The bathrooms and showers feel like you are in a hotel, not a campground, and all of the amenities are well cared for.

    The price was well worth it for this very quiet and maintained area.
