    Nice place

    Went on a day pass. Drove by the cabins and they looked cute. Perfect place to put a kayak in. Lots of shallow water in parts though. It was pretty crowded with quite a bit of music playing. Bathrooms were old and run down but worked, shower had little pressure. Better for rinsing off. I enjoyed the view and the fishing.

    Great place

    I tent camped for several days here. The staff are helpful, bathrooms are super clean with soap, decent water pressure and everything is so well kept. I was thoroughly impressed and will be back to try the other sites. I stayed at turtle falls. It was so peaceful listening to the water all night.

    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!

    Shady Meadows — Garner State Park

    Very nice full hookup in quiet part of Garner

    We’ve been coming to Garner for over 25 years. Tent camped, stayed in the screened shelters, and recently RVed, but this is the first time I’ve stayed in this camp ground. I like that it is in “Old Garner”, so it is close to more of the trails, the main swimming area, the store, etc. but it is far enough away to be free of the noise and other activities that go with Old Garner. I’ve stayed in Okd Garner in the winter because it isn’t so busy and things are more chill (pardon the pun) but stayed in New Garner in the Summer to avoid the noise. Here I get the best of both - and this site has Full Hookups (look for the Pull thrus, as not all have full hookups). In short, this can’t be beat. I’m the only draw back is the sites are narrower (at least the pull thrus are) and the picnic tables are not covered. Not enough to even shave a little off the 5th Star, but that is my only complaint.

    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.

    Super clean, quiet, and lovely landscaping

    Very quiet, clean, and very well maintained. We work full-time remote and this has beautiful clear views of the sky for our Starlink dishy. The landscaping and grounds are beautifully planted and laid out, including a nice nature trail alongside the golf course. Would highly recommend to 50+ campers looking for access to the Texas Hill Country and San Antonio.

    P.S. nice weather for November with little wind, rain, or clouds. Nearly perfect weather so far this stay!

    Live Oak — Garner State Park

    Scenic Hiking Paradise

    Stayed for two November nights in the Live Oak campsite (site 328). Park was very well maintained. Bathrooms were clean albeit the one in Live Oak had no hot water. Not a big issue as the adjacent site bathroom was just as close for us. For our 22ft trailer the space was adequate, but would have been tight for a longer rig. A lot of the spaces at the various camping areas looked somewhat short, but for us it wasn’t an issue. Most sites seemed to have good shade and the trees provided nice privacy. All in all it was very peaceful, hiking trails were excellent, and the scenery is awesome.

    Highly HIGHLY recommend!!

    We had a friends and family reunion of sorts here at the campgrounds for 5 days and it was the most amazing experience of our trip! We stayed in one of the cabins, a tiny home and utilized on RV hookup as well! So we got a picture of pretty much everything they offer. It was PERFECT to say the least! Water pressure was great! I have super thick hair and worry about being able to wash it thoroughly, but their bathrooms were just right! The AC's kept the cabin the perfect temperature for the hotter times of the day and at night or early mornings, you kept toasty warm. The grounds themselves were huge and you can set up a volleyball net as well as barbecue. If you wanted to lounge with other guests, you could in the common areas, or you can stick to yourselves as well, the place was so huge. The water was clear and cool and so very inviting! My son did cannon bombs of the cliff jump! Do not recommend that though:/... the women brought our inner tubes and laid out with our drinks soaking in the warm sun. Brandon and Sachi were the perfect hosts and I definitely plan on coming back year after year to experience this treasured place. Mahalo!

    Okay for stopover

    Quiet, small park without showers or bathrooms. Most residents are long term. Gravel roads/pads well graded. Internet is spotty at best. First night I watched football and movie with minor buffering, next day and night I couldn't get service. Ok if you're in a pinch but that's about it.

    We loved this campground. Lots of places to walk & saw wildlife every day. Restrooms were clean & very nice. The washers are bigger than a lot of RV parks too.  The staff is very friendly & accommodating. We extended our stay 3 times!  If you're in the Texas hill country, this is definitely the place to stay.

    Great Campground for RV or Tent camping

    Garner has pretty much anything you could need onsite. There’s a general store, restrooms, and plenty of trails for hiking, biking, or just exploring. It gets busy during holidays so expect neighbors and families with kids.
