Best Campgrounds near Comstock, TX

Cactus, no trees, hot sun. This is west Texas! Seriously, it’s a nice campground with covered picnic tables. Plenty of areas to walk with your dog. Just watch out for the cactus and thorn bushes. Sites are spaced and as private as you can be when there are no trees. Would I stay here again? Definitely if coming through the area. Beautiful stars and sunsets are an added bonus

Easy to find with plenty of spots open. Our neighbor reported seeing a fox come through our site. The campground was very clean and well kept. There is a highway very close and train tracks just beyond that but it didn’t bother us at all as there was very little traffic while we were sleeping.

Only stayed one night, in late March cool night warm day. Showers / bathrooms were nice, site was private with picnic table, tent pad, a ramada, water electric,  dump station.

We missed the tour, the vistor center was very nice, did a little exploring on our own, coming back for sure.

Great value, only $3 with the senior pass. We stayed at site 31, level, gravel with a picnic table under a sun shade and a grill. There were maybe 4 or 5 others here and all very quiet.
Pit toilets were clean and had TP and did not smell.
It was a great overnight. Easy to get to, the dirt road here is in great condition, and it is not far from 90. It's close to Del Rio and we have internet, but the lake is low and it was hot, 89 on March 6 so we didn't stay longer.
Payment is easy at the kiosk. It right there at the end of the camp sites Takes credit cards.

We will definitely come back to this one. It is $10 per night to park overnight and the automated machine takes card! We found a nice spot that fit our 21ft travel trailer and 20ft van pulling it right next the the Reservoir. We woke up to beautiful views of the blue/green water and took a morning hike down to walk right out onto one of the natural jetty’s that goes right out into the middle of the water. The picnic tables on the way down to the water have usb charging that is solar powered and umbrellas built in. Perfect spot to have morning coffee/breakfast. We met some nice folks who also helped us back into our spot since it was dark. 10/10 for a boondocking experience

Perfect place for a short stay to get away from everything and have some very peaceful nights. No road noise or people noise. With the lake being low it keeps most people away but it was perfect to just hang out. We had great Wi-Fi and long walks.

Área muy bien cuidada con un viento contante que te ayuda a mitigar el calor.

Note, this is my second review of San Pedro campground. My first review was based on good nostalgia from around 2010 when the lake was high. However, I tent camped here on July 5, 2023 and I was the lone camper. The place felt scorched abandoned. It was hot. There is almost zero shade apart from the metal shade structures. I stayed in site 10 or 12 where there is some evening shade from the mesquite or huisache trees. The closest lake water is a 2 mile drive down Spur 454, where the NPS has improvised a boat ramp and swimming area with parking. But man, San Pedro campground is now high and dry and hot. I hate to give it 2 stars because I love Amistad but times have changed. Maybe some day the lake will rise again but it’s been like 12 years already since the lake receded. I had planned to stay more nights but it just wasn’t wise. Not in July anyway.

Everything you would want out of a cheap campground. This was our first stop in our week long van-camping trip. We swung by the dispersed site past the reservoir going west on 90, but it was occupied by a large family with very little room left. Right before crossing the reservoir we noticed a campground overlooking the water and it looked somewhat open. The map showed it to be Governor’s landing and guided us into a sketchy road off the highway under the bridge, but once we entered the campground you can see Amistad Reservoir in all its glory.

$10 a night and first come first serve so you should get there early enough to find a spot facing the the water. You can hear the highway for sure but I didn’t mind it. The wind, on the other hand, was a challenge. I learned it’s more efficient to cook in a charcoal grill than a gas stove with high winds. The winds were so high, the overhang of my roof top tent lifted up taking the ladder up with it. By the way, if you ever get into that situation, tie down your tent to your vehicle. You’ll thank me later.

Come to find out, that wind fed a storm that freaked both us out inside our tent! We’ve weathered a storm before in the tent, but the added high winds had us holding on all night.

Concluding my review of this place, we went back as a bookend to our trip because we did love the place and learned how to deal with high winds since. Then, of course, we were hit with a storm. Again. Same camp. Same time. Same day of the week. But this time we sealed up the tent tight and hung out in the van watching movies on an iPad using the car stereo to over power the thunderous storm.

We see you Governor’s Landing. We’ll be back. We still love you.

Perfect camping in the high desert . Small quiet campground with stunning views . Mexico to our right … U.S . To our left . Impeccable restrooms . Site was secluded .

This is a wonderful dispersed campground in a national rest/park area on the hill with close access to the highway.

This is a small well maintained campsite next to the main road. It had potable water, clean sites, clean bathrooms, tent pads, BBQ, picnic table with shade covers, day use area and NPS workers showed up. It had an easy check in kiosk where we used a credit card. The sites that were on top of hill have a lot of road noise. The sites that sit lower and also further away would be your best bet. 15 was flat but noisy. There were not many sites available when we pulled in at night. 4? Available at 7pm on a Sunday.

The campsites were well maintained and the bathrooms were clean. The views are fantastic and all the other campers were respectful. NPS came through in the morning and checked the garbages and bathrooms. I would stay here again!

This campground has running water, pit toilets, and well maintained campsites (small camper van or tent - not good for big rigs). First come availability- we pulled in at 7pm and had plenty of spaces to choose from. No electric Beautiful views of the water Safe and clean Credit cards only to pay fee ($10)

Came here as a last minute plan B after original trip east showed too much rain. Very happy we found a great camp space here. Really enjoyed the facilities, staff were very friendly, campground extremely clean, and great hiking trails. Will be back in Spring or Fall for more temperate weather and I imagine it is spectacular!

So far an amazing place and wish I was staying longer. Clean, nice, easy in and out. The views and the quiet are priceless!

Seminole Canyon is usually my first stop on my way to Davis Mountains State Park. I'm a tent camper.  Every campsite has all you would need. Water, electricity, and a table. Can be challenging if the wind is blowing hard but doable. Wonderful hiking trails with vistas over the Rio Grande River.  Also take the guided tour into the canyon to see the ancient pictographs.

When traveling near Del Rio, we always try to stop here for a night or two. Well spaced sites and clean pit toilets. If looking for an out-of-the-way place to spend the night, this is it. Just a short 1-mile drive on a gravel road (well maintained) to a number of great sites. The only downside is that the water at this “water front” site was nowhere to be seen. The lake hadn’t extended up this far in many, many years.

Want to get away from it all? Make sure you have a rig that can handle rough dirt and rocky roads, make sure your camper can do the same, or bring a tent, and you’re good to go. The campsites are so spread out, you can run a generator all night if you wanted to, and not a soul except the coyotes would hear it. It’s peaceful, dusty, and beautiful all at the same time. Not many hiking trails, but the ones there are awesome. The river and Finegan Springs are AMAZING. The restrooms are the cleanest around, the showers are hot, but they are a LONG drive from the sites and on pretty rocky roads. Not easy. The sites are fantastic. We stayed in site 6, which has a beautiful canyon view. We loved the peace and quiet and the sunsets. No cell service AT ALL. Wi-Fi is spotty at the restrooms/ campground entrance, but you won’t get it at the sites. Make sure you have the water you need for the weekend and a porta potty. Limited availability so book early. That’s what makes this park an awesome experience.
