    Great palace to stop.

    Desk people are very friendly and even checked their Uber app to check how much the trip to a restaurant would cost. Heated pool. Showers are large and spacious. DVD, book, and cd library. Gated Rv park. The front-end shop had everything we wanted.

    Great hidden gem

    Stayed in my RV over Memorial weekend. Small rv campground, so book early. Overlooks and has access to Medina river. The owners are extremely kind and helpful, even providing corn to feed the deer.
    But don't tell anyone, let's leave this our little secret.

    Exceptional Customer Service

    This campground(CG)/RV resort has exceptional customer service. We were on a waitlist to add another day to our reservation. They proactively called us back about a month later to let us know they could accommodate another night’s stay. We followed the website instructions to come in so we could take a right turn into the RV Resort, which is a 1/4 mile from the golf course entrance. A very short rig could take a left turn. The gate was down so we called the number listed on the gate and we were let in for a very pleasant check-in. We were assigned pull-through site 406 with FHUs. There’s a slope off the front of the site, so I needed to center the rig on the level part of the cement pad. By doing this I needed 20’ of sewer hose to get from my rear black tank to the sewer. The CG was quiet with no kids running around as this is a 55+ CG. The guest internet was below average for a park this size, but we have Starlink. We got 3 bars on Verizon. Most of the campers here were seasonal with license plates from CO, MN, and WI. Several of the campers we talked to didn’t golf and came here to get away from cold weather. We did not see any overnighters during our four-day stay but this CG is fairly far from the San Antonio area interstates. CG was well-kept with no junky sites. They have a laundry room, but a couple of machines were not working. The sites were decently spaced and very long. Many reviewers called the sites spacious. The sites were not as far apart or as large when compared to many of the State Parks or Corps of Engineers CGs we’ve stayed. Get pizza from Luigi's Italian Restaurant in nearby Castroville as it’s in the top 5 pizzas we’ve had as we traveled through all lower 48 states. We enjoyed our stay, including playing their challenging golf course, and would definitely return.

    UP IN THE HILLS

    Stayed on the 'hill side' and really enjoyed the park. Most sites you pull in paralllel to the road which is nice. Had deer through our site every day. Really good hiking but some of the trails were closed due to race events. Close to town and not too far of a drive to Fredericksburg and went to the Nat'l Pacific War Museum and that was well worth the drive. Here in October so park was about 1/8 full if even that.

    The area featured trees on the opposite side and was a larger Bloxstrap premium location. It was really easy to pull in, park, and set up. The toilets were handy, and the neighborhood is rather calm.

    Its a great place. It is in the process of getting cleaned up.

    This park is one of the better ones. It is just needing to be cleaned up with some of the older units that are parked all year round there.

    We came for a 1 week stay and ended up for a month. We will come back again. Great location.

    Office ladies were great to deal with on our mail also.

    Thank you everyone

    If you're looking for a baby horror game, this is it. Do you understand?

    Be very careful when you play the basketball challenge. Playing this game requires caution and good judgment, much like the terrifying"the baby in yellow" game. During a basketball game, collaboration is usually more valued than hostility. If you want to win the game, you need to learn to focus solely on the ball and the hoop when those moments happen.

    Camp Landa Resort

    Brand new resort with awesome amenities and enthusiastic owners and staff.

    We were lucky enough to discover this RV park/resort on The Dyrt app the first weekend it was open, during a busy time (the April 8 Eclipse) when many other places were full. As it turned out, this was our favorite RV park during our 10-day trip in a rental RV for several reasons. First, the pool! As you can hopefully see  from my pictures, this place has an incredible pool for almost any place, but especially for an RV park. It's heated, has plenty of seating, and there's a swim-up bar under the canopy. Second, it's brand new and they've thought of almost everything I'd want/need in an RV park. I know it might be RV specific, but one little thing I noticed that speaks to their attention to detail was the layout and spacing of the hookups. In  many places we stayed, the clean-water spigot would be in a place where my hose had to cross the sewer hose and/or the electrical cord. Here, things were spaced out and in the order I needed so as not to have to cross anything. Third, all the available amenities were in great condition and seemed very spacious--the bathrooms and showers are clean and huge, the laundry facility, when finished, looks like it'll be much bigger than anything else we saw on our trip, and the clubhouse/office/restaurant was also spotless and could seat dozens at a time. Finally, the owners/operators were always on site and available to answer questions and did things like invite everyone to the firepit for s'mores each evening (I don't imagine that will go on indefinitely, but it was a nice way to meet everyone else at the park when it was just opening). Would definitely recommend this place without hesitation.

    Fantastic campground and facilities

    Very nice multi use campsites with tent pads and picnic tables and large flat parking pads. Sites were spaced apart and felt very private. The bathrooms are very spacious and clean. There were nice separate individual showers with hot water and nice dressing area. Several trails nearby and a short walk to the Guadalupe River where there was plenty of additional parking and picnic tables.

    Great tent camping

    The tent sites are huge and spread apart. Picnic tables and fire rings at each site. Flush toilets and showers. A highway run through the camp so there is some noise from that, mainly during the day. Town is 2 miles away.

    Needs better customer service

    We had reservations for Alamo Fiesta and were running late. The directions from the internet didn’t get us to the right place. We called the office at 5:00 pm and got voicemail. No one called back. Finally found them with help from locals. No one in the office. Everything was dark. Our late check in info was not in their box. Luckily I had a pre assigned site number. Found a map in the trash by the door. We found the site and set up ok. But No pass code for bathrooms or internet! We were able to use laundry without a code. They were clean and everything there worked. Can’t comment on bathroom because we couldn’t get in! Guys playing pool in the rec room said that the bathroom were closed!

    I guess they dont want my business

    I would have loved to write a glowing review about this place, but they never responded to two reservation requests via the Dyrt camping app, so i'm giving them one star for poor customer service. 

    Zero stars would of course have been more appropriate
