Guadalupe River SP

Arrived Tuesday in December, very empty. Sorta like the ole Texas ghost town but with staff. The Cedar Sage sites are for 20’ or less and have two parking spaces, a tent pad, hook thing and picnic table. Lots of space/foliage between sites, so you have some privacy and I’m sure when it’s busy it helps mute the noise.

The showerhouse is nice, separate shower rooms that need more hooks to dangle your stuff from. Very clean and well maintained.

I was informed by a host couple that the river was very low to non-existent over the last summer and the showerhouse was closed. There was a burn ban still in effect. When I walked down to the river it was still not up to its usual level.

We did get to experience some wildlife in the campground and on the trail. There were armadillo wandering the campground in the early evening looking for food . Then near the river early morning we saw first one group of deer near the overlook and then a large herd of close to 15 when we approached the river near the Discovery Center. There are two trailheads in the campground area, one was closed the evening we arrived. Unfortunately all the trails were closed around 0900 the next morning due to mud/slippery conditions and possible further rain fall. When we returned in the late afternoon the trails and parking areas had been reopened. When the river is “working” there are kayak/tube opportunities, unfortunately no way of knowing ahead when you book what your going to get so plan accordingly and bring lots of water just in case. Even in winter this park is worth a visit, I imagine it’s busy on the weekends .

Nice campgrounds with even nicer facilities

I cannot express how impressed we were with these restrooms. Seriously cleanest and newest restrooms we’ve seen at a SP in Texas. Had some very unafraid raccoons run up to our site. Yelling and tossing rocks near their feet did not deter at all. Had to interrupt our dinner and put our food away to get them to leave us alone. The tent pad was large enough for our massive tent and one other 2p tent. Great trees for hammock hanging and a picnic table. Favorite thing was the restroom though honestly.
