Solid option just a 10 minute drive to most of the best of San Antonio — the Pearl, The Alamo, Riverwalk and Brackenridge Park. The immediate area doesn’t have much to offer but it’s a very quick drive to anywhere you want to be.
The park is a bit on the expensive side, but pretty consistent with the area and they offer some discounts including Good Sam. The grounds are pretty standard with paved roads and gravel sites. The gravel is packed nicely and the sites are mostly level. Some of the “higher end” sites are paved pads that you can specify when booking through their online form. There is no privacy between sites aside from a slight staggering of trailers which allowed for plenty of room On either side.
Hookups are reliable and positioned well. The wifi is super inconsistent and weak, we were positioned very close to the office and could barely use the connection. They have a lovely heated pool and patio area plus communal grills in a bit of a clustered area. Laundry facilities accept quarters and credit cards. Security is excellent and everyone is given a unique code for the car gate.
Customer service was exceedingly friendly and we really enjoyed our stay. If you’re looking for a great running/biking path nearby, there is the Salado Creek Greenway with a trailhead just a mile away on Belgium Lane. We would definitely return for future stays in San Antonio!
