Great ranch/campground

absolutely loved the place! Longhorns every where, goats, horse, cows. There's little tours they do on their side by sides. The property is huge! and plenty of roaming area. The owners are welcoming and encourage you to explore. Will come back very soon

Incredible stay at Wilderness shores

We had an incredible stay here. The host Paul was amazing. In addition to the beautifully set up RV spot, we got an incredible tour with Paul. It was an experience I did not expect. We are so grateful to him.

Amazing Stay!!!

Fantastic find and a must check out. We stayed in our RV, with water and 30/50. Septic dump station. Clean showers/bathrooms for tent folks/boondockers. Quiet and gorgeous; as every site has a view of the water, and trees/nature is abundant. Hike along the water on trails, off road biking, and up close viewing of the beautiful ranch animals ( steer and goats ). Owners Paul and Tony were extremely welcoming and personable, as was every person we came in contact with. We were invited on a cattle run, gator search and also an SUV tour of this amazingly beautiful property; which is surrounded by 3/4 water.

Great Hidden Gem

Great privately owned campsite for those wanting to get away from crowds and overly-popular sites. This campsite also has cattle and goats and the owner allows you to pet the goats (great for little kids) and may even offer a joy ride on a side by side! Bathrooms were clean and bathrooms are private with shower in each one. The location is still under construction (1/2023) but there are already plenty of areas to camp on. I personally cannot wait until all the expansions have been completed which will include primitive camping site with beautiful views! I’ll most definitely be coming back with my boys. A few things to note: tent camping sites have running water but no electricity so be prepared to bring power banks or backup battery. Also, the location is near main highways and a railroad so if you’re a light sleeper, bring ear plugs. Other than that, no complaints!
