Hiking and Biking
With over three miles of trails, Helton Nature Park is a great place to exercise without having to worry about vehicle traffic. The trails are natural surfaces, so proper footwear is suggested. Bicycles with wide tires, like BMX and mountain bikes, are recommended. Road bikes are discouraged due to rough, natural terrain.
Paddling
Historically, Helton Nature Park was the final takeout point on the SASPAMCO paddling trail. Recently, the paddling trail has been extended and now continues south to Floresville River Park with take-out points at County Road 117 (nine miles downstream of Helton Nature Park) and US 97 (eight miles downstream of County Road 117 and 17 miles from Helton Nature Park). This extension makes Helton Nature Park a perfect picnic lunch destination in the middle of a paddling journey or a nice starting point on a paddling journey to Floresville. SASPAMCO Paddling Trail.
Parties and Events
Some of the newest amenities added to the park are up and away from the river, including a basketball court, playground, restroom, and a 5,000 square foot pavilion. The basketball court and pavilion are available for reservations up to one year in advance.
Discovery Information
Intriguing geologic features, tall shady trees, and peacefully flowing waters make the SASPAMCO Paddling Trail a paddling adventure that is unmatched in the San Antonio area. This trail has a wild feel as it courses a little over 29 miles through parts of Bexar and Wilson Counties, yet it is connected to rural parks to access amenities such as picnic tables, restrooms, and parking. The flow rate can vary, so it is a good idea to check out flow conditions before heading out to the paddling trail. If you time your excursion just right, you might happen upon a community event at John William Helton Nature Park when you conclude your paddling trip.

Pecan RV Park
Hidden riverside gem
This is an older park, but the river access makes up for the outdated but clean facilities. Our side of the park was along the river and had great shade. The other side had no trees and seemed to be more full-time folks. Facilities are a little dated but clean. There are tons of full-time folks, and I can see why. The river is right there. Great river access and space to sit and watch the tubers go by. Very few bells and whistles. Some folks said it was much more community oriented before the new managers took over. They used to do movies and food trucks, and things just looked better. But it was nice. It was expensive for what it was, but again... the river access made it great.

Great little park (no sewer)
This park is a great place to visit. Really nice trails. Great staff. Spots are really nice, but mostly very short. Our 28' trailer took up most of the space. But, I was able to fit my truck sideways at the end of the driveway.

Lake Pointe Resort
Thumbs up.
We stayed here for 2 weeks and don't regret it at all. The staff is very friendly and very helpful. The surroundings are beautiful and quiet. The RV park also offers 2 well-maintained pools. A family and an adult pool. There are deer roaming around the entire area, which was a new experience for our dogs. A simple but functional dog park was therefore very convenient for us.
Guillermo L.TravelerCamp Huaco Springs
Great place for Vanner!
I went with a extremely rowdy group of individuals and it appeared that the attendants of camp Hueco are very patient people. They were very good at explaining what the expectations were for camping on the property and the expectations were for the others in the immediate area. Also please don't bring your mini bike!

Nice place!
We stayed here in the middle of June in site 20 & 21. It was hooooot but the pool was nice, and the river was cold. It was hard to tote all of our stuff down the to the river and back up when we were done, so we will likely go somewhere else for river time next time. My only desire is that they would make one of the three pools adult only.

We stayed 5 nights visiting San Antonio. This is a beautiful park outside of the city on the river. 30 minutes to downtown. The owners are awesome people and there is a real pride of ownership shown in the upkeep around the park.
Pool, hot tub, fitness center, laundry, dog park, golf cart rentals, clubhouse, and much more!

Kimberly K Says:
This was the perfect getaway for a last minute weekend trip. We arrived after dark, but Reza was so helpful in making sure we had everything we needed as we set up at the tent site. We really appreciated the little extras: reclining chairs at the tent site and also at the fire pit, the flush toilet and the outdoor shower, a picnic table and firewood was also available. Both Dot and Reza were so pleasant and very accommodating to our needs. They were readily accessible without being intrusive. We definitely had our privacy but knew they were just a phone call away. We cannot wait to come back and reconnect with nature. The stars are abundant and the vibe is so amazing, we felt completely recharged. We're so happy we found this gem!!
