The Best Camping Near Canyon, Texas

This park is Amazing! Absolutely gorgeous landscape, in the 2nd biggest canyon in the US, behind the Grand Canyon. The park is relatively new and still under development. As of the time of this review, there are only boondocking sites available, but they offer epic views of the canyon. There are miles of hiking, and MTB Trails to enjoy, and even some top notch off road trails down in the canyon, green to black skill level. If your looking for a true overlanding experience, this is one of very few places in Texas where you can get away from the crowds, and into some raw, natural land to set up your camp. This is a private park, so you'll need to be a member, or a guest of a member, to enter. They do have a few days a month open to the public, so check their website for available dates.

Amazing Views, and a True Overlanding Experience in Texas

I stayed here for several days and had an absolute blast with my dog. Met several new friends who were all boon docking since the full hookup campsites were not done yet. I even took my GMC 2500 HD off roading which I had never done before. What an experience even though I couldn’t get off the beginners trails. They have truly fantastic views everywhere you look as it’s the “Grand Canyon of Texas.”  The staff is exceptional in every way. If you’re into off roading bring a true rock climber vehicle. This place is for you but it has walking paths also.

Boondockers heaven - full hookups soon

We've probably spent a few weeks camping at Merus over the last couple years.  The improvements during that time have been amazing...and are still coming!  We love the views from the boondocking sites on the rim as well as the peace of the more remote campsites down in the canyon.  The team that runs Merus bends over backwards to make each stay special.
