Neal's Lodge

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Tubing, swimming, and riverside camping draw visitors to Neal's Lodge on the Frio River near places to camp around Concan. The property sits directly on the water, and tent sites closest to the river fill up fast. Reviewers consistently note that RV sites sit farther from the water, a tradeoff worth considering before booking. The lodge has been operating for decades and includes a restaurant on site, tube rentals and shuttles, golf cart rentals, and a store stocked with camping supplies.

Tent campers tend to get the better end of the deal here. Sites like spot 3 and spot 12 put campers right at the river's edge with tree cover for shade, access to a large slide and jumping rocks, and proximity to the restrooms. The RV section has full hookups including electric, water, and sewer, but Steven T. notes that "RVs are a schlep from the water." Cleanliness in the RV area has drawn mixed feedback, with some reviewers finding the bathhouse and grounds inconsistently maintained.

The Frio River is the main draw, and it's easily accessible from the tent camping area. The property also hosts summer concerts in its dance hall. Nearby alternatives include Frio River Vacation Rentals and Andy's on River Road if Neal's is full. Reservations are strongly recommended, especially in summer, as both tent sites and cabins book out quickly.

Very spacious and level site with great location

We have been coming to Neal’s for years, but have always stayed in their cabins. We had a change of plans for a trip (thank you Hurricane Beryl) and were lucky enough to get in at Neal’s. Had an amazing time, and changed our upcoming cabin reservation to an RV site!

Great location; We’ll be back

Rvs are a schlep from the water. Facilities were cleanish- I wasn’t bothered but my partner was. It was crowded/pretty busy

Rustic RV park on Frio River

We spent 4 nights in this small RV park. The grounds are not well maintained, with trash, dog poop and cigarette butts pretty much everywhere. Bath house and restrooms are dirty and old. Neals is mainly for cabin rentals, and there are only a handful of RV sites. It is on a beautiful and easily accessible part of the Frio River, which is why we stayed here. There is a decent restaurant on site

Tent camping

We will come back for rent camping but probably not for RV. It's a little too far from the water. The campgrounds are so great though and is absolutely our favorite

Not a bad little spot

Nice place to camp. We were in spot 12 it’s close to the water and has nice trees to cover your tent and campsite with shade. The area is for campers only so it doesn’t get to busy which is nice. The restaurant across the street is amazing you have to try the chicken fried steak and the salsa is a must.

FUN TIME

Neal's Lodges has primitive camp grounds, so you will not have water or electricity hookups. They also provide cabins, but who could resist getting to sleep in a tent right on the water.

This is a great camping spot, we had tent site 3 and it was right on the water. We had a huge camping area. There was a big slide for adults and kids as well as beautiful big jumping rocks. They also had golf cart rentals for 24 hr periods which definitely came in handy. We were close to the restrooms which is great when you have kids. They had a store with all the supplies you forget or run out of, as well as a restaurant. They had a dance hall with a snack bar and offered excursions with the ranch animals.

Primitive camping with excellent fun!

This is one of the oldest campgrounds around. It has tent camping and cabins. They have concerts in the summer as well as a restaurant. They offer toobing shuttles and rent tubes as well. I love this place! Going again this year. Tents and cabins fill up quickly so reservations are a good idea.
