Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Buchanan Dam, TX

We rented a tiny home and RV spot. It was wonderful. We also rented a golf cart to use at the resort. Our two day trip was$1000 but worth it. Had to pay$10 each for the dogs and$10 for my 5 yr old grandson which we knew up front and we're ok with. Upon arrival saw a dog park and a nice young man showed us to our spot and helped us back in. We then asked if the tiny home was pet friendly as the literature we received at the gate mentioned pet friendly units. The young man called up to the office and was told it was pet friendly. We had planned to keep my daughters dogs in the trailer with us but as they were crying for their momma and we were told it was pet friendly we let her take them with her. A fabulous trip and memory making Thanksgiving....that's where the goodness ended. After leaving we received a notice we would be charged a fee to deep clean the unit after we"broke the rules". Who spends that kind of money and the"breaks the rules"? We explained the man called and got cleared but we're told he denied the entire episode. So if you dare experience make sure you get EVERYTHING in writing.

I stayed here for three days and had a very nice time. This has become an annual event for me to come and watch Roger Wilson who is a blues player. He does a concert in early October and I always come to watch him. The campsites are very nice and are located on top of Buchanan dam on a huge lake with outstanding fishing. You will not be disappointed. 

Nice quiet clean well organized! Amazing dog park!

World greatest dog park! Clean restrooms and awesome staff!

This site seems to be ran by the city. It's very well kept, clean, quiet and spacious.

I read mixed reviews about spacing but found it was no issue being low season.

We took someone else's recommendation on here and reserved a spot by the dog park. We had spot 84. Those are all pull through spots and face the dog park and airport.

Personally, we loved watching all the dogs play and the planes coming and going. It was far enough away to watch without being annoyingly loud.

We were minutes from Das Peach House, Dietz Distellry, downtown, and HEB.

This was a quick pick on our way to Lubbock. The place needs some TLC but we had W, E, and sewer. There ain’t anything in Goldthwaite so BYO. The folks who run the place are helpful and the dog park has the only grass in the park. Rustic

Sites are close together, gravel, and not all are level. There are also extreme amounts of painful grass burrs in the lower camp area. But there’s also a beautiful dog park, butterfly garden, rustling trees, wide roads for waking, and the staff were pleasant and helpful. Very convenient short drive to downtown Fredericksburg and many wineries. It’s also fun to watch the airplanes at the nearby airport. Family and dog friendly. We would go back.

We are currently at the Harker Heights, location that opened last month. The grass needs to grow some, muddy areas. Most sights are level. Full hookups. Pool Private shower rooms Laundry Playground Fenced dog park Large old trees Many sunny spots Small store with supplies, clothing, hats, snacks, drinks, beer, and wine Bring brand new, there are kinks they are working out, but very friendly and helpful.

This a very clean, secure and quiet park. There are a lot of drive through sites and plenty of room. It’s the closest RV park to Luchenbach. There is spoil however it was closed due to COVID-19. It has a dog park also. If you want shade get in the back. If you want some sky for satellite service get in the front.

Park is convenient to lots of local sites. 

Contactless checkin well executed. Reviews point out they are a stickler for the rules. But in this Covid world, we are ok with that. Ladies I spoke with on the phone were friendly and reviewed the rules clearly.

Nice open dog park with no messes to avoid. 

Spots are close together, but a privacy panel makes it a bit better. 

Sites level; most are pull through. And many have great shade.

I first chose this RV park because it was further away from Johnson City (I wanted a quiet RV park that wasn’t too close to the busy traffic). I was not disappointed. My girlfriend and myself have stayed here twice and we will be going back in November. The office staff is friendly and very helpful. The sites are gravel/dirt but the are all level. There is a nice size dog park area for an RV park of this size. Me of the things I love is taking my dogs to the park first thing in the morning and watching the cows in the pasture next to the park through the fence.

Dog park, playground, incredible two-tiered infinity pool with hill country views, state of the art entertainment area with live music, food trucks, wine tastings, camp store in process, concrete pads, full hookups 50/30/20 at every site...1 mile to Luckenbach, TX and within 10 minutes of 60 area wineries.  The resort staff is so nice.  This is a gated resort, so plan your reservations in advance accordingly.  They have luxury caliber restrooms, shower suites, laundry facilities, just everything to make you feel at home.  Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and we will be back again.

The campground is well maintained and has three loops. I suppose it’s the oldest loop but it’s also the tightest campground I’ve been to in a while.

Each site is split in half so you literally back up to your neighbors and if that’s not bad enough you’re a stones throw from your neighbors side-to-side.

Best bet is to book the sites close to the dog park and the airstrip.

And that brings me to my last point. It’s close to a general aviation airstrip. Not a big deal and not a lot of flights at night.

The airport diner has a great burger though.

We stayed here two nights to enjoy Fredericksburg and some hiking.  The welcoming was hands off due to COVID and was taken very seriously.  The site as good and required no leveling.  Easy access with full hook ups and a pass through.  The dog park was good, but basic. Overall the park was quite and well maintained with nice landscaping.  The street view needs some help, but don't let it stop you from coming in!

The Enchanted Rock state park was out of openings (over night and day passes) and were not accepting drive ins for hiking, so plan ahead of you want visit.  The did offer other attractions that we took up (bat cave, cross mountain ... both short hikes, but interesting).  We visited the local fort and of course the town.

Will stay again if passing through and can't get in at the state park!  Thanks!

Our RV GPS took us right to the park where you check in at their headquarters building. Check in was quick and we proceeded to pull through site 9 with FHUs. Site 9 is only a pull though if site 8 is not occupied. The sites in this area are set up on both sides of the road with you parking in a line, parallel style. There are white lines painted on the road to designate where the sites begin and end. Once unhitched, we were able to park our F450 adjacent to our 5th wheel. The park has cable TV with lots of channels. We got 4 bars on Verizon. The utilities are towards the back of the site, and we needed 15’ for sewer, 20’ for water, and 20’ for electric. The water pressure was good at about 50 psi. We had a clear shot to the north sky for Starlink. A south sky satellite shot may be iffy due to the mature trees in that direction. The WiFi was okay for a CG this size. Site 9 is near the playground and one of the two shower/restroom facilities. The sites in this campground (CG) are for the most part close together, especially in the front area near the entrance. There’s a large fenced dog park along with plenty of areas to walk your dog. With the county airport adjacent to the CG, we enjoyed watching the wide variety of small aircraft. We enjoyed playing a round of golf at the course adjacent to the CG and touring the local wineries.

Love this place! 30/50 electric, water and sewer. Has a clubhouse with a fully stocked kitchen free to use. Showers and laundry. All this plus you can board your pets and horses!! All pull through sites.

Nice park and campground very near Georgetown, Texas. Berry Springs is a local county park and preserve. The Park is located just north of Georgetown Texas about 1 mile off Interstate 35 the main highway between Dallas and Austin. It’s a Great location with loads of open space. They have basic sites with covered picnic tables, fire rings, and hooks for hanging items. The former ranch has a lot of history dating back to the Texas Pioneer days. The park is located next to clear spring fed river for swimming and fishing. This may be a great option for those looking for a location close to Austin or a local family weekend. The camp was nearly empty in October this year which is the peak season for camping in Texas. The sites are best suited for tent camper, vans, and smaller trailers.
