    Son’s Blue River Camp

    Our Family loves Son’s River Camp!

    We stayed in one of their air-conditioned glamping cabins. It was very nice and clean and the AC stayed very cold. They have private, lockable, full bathrooms right behind the cabins. The place is very pretty and the staff friendly. We loved tubing and kayaking the San Marcos River! It’s a great getaway!

    Son’s Geronimo

    Great family experience!

    We had a fantastic time at Son’s Geronimo! Their glamping cabins are super nice and had everything we needed including AC, WiFi, full kitchen, fire pits, hammocks etc. We have a family of 6 and the setup was perfect: 2 queen beds and 2 twin beds. The property itself pretty large and has a lot of creek frontage. We kayaked, paddle paddle boarded, swam, fished and more! They also have lots of amenities: 2 pools, 2 hot tubs, volleyball court, basketball court, game room, horseshoe pits and more. We will definitely be back!

    Canyon Lake Military - Randolph AFB

    We love it here. Not for everyone.

    We started with day passes, then graduated to renting out the loft cabins, then tried tent camping, and eventually and recently parked our travel trailer in the reservable RV spaces. All in the same vicinity. Made great memories at each stay.

    Pro’s: Best rate in town for military (active, retired, $ disabled). Water is beautiful. Fishing can be fantastic. Lots of water activities available for rent or bring your own. Pet friendly, Great for families, most people are very respectful and wonderful to talk to. Good food and stores nearby. Lots of wildlife. Quiet. Close to town and short drive from San Antonio.

    Cons: Hard to get ahold of staff to make reservations. Market is extremely expensive and staff isn’t very friendly. Lost and lots of fire ants.

    We recommend it to all of our friends and family and bring them often. We love staying in the loft cabins. Some are pet friendly. We have stayed in the mobile homes on the other side of the lake once but that was not a great experience as our things were stolen off our table and covered patio (on Veterans Day) and they were only left unattended for 15 min or less. The mobile home wasn’t very nice but functional at least.

    Palmetto State Park Campground

    Nice basic state park

    The tent camping spots in this somewhat small state were spacious. They had both a grill and a fire pit, picnic table, water spigot, and a "lantern hook" (a giant pipe thing like for a basketball hoop, but with a little hook sticking out of it. Each site is supposed to accommodate 2 cars, but about half of them only had parking for 1. Fortunately we got there early and were able to switch. Try to be nice to the camp hosts, they're volunteers and when I got grumpy at the one who told us we couldn't park with our wheels hanging off the pad, I thought she might cry.

    The website doesn't get updated easily, so ignore any reports of tubing. There are no tube rentals there and no convenient, nearby tubing put-ins/take-outs. Don't try to tube the Zedler Mill Paddling Trail. The water is super slow and full of logs and if you suck at tubing it could take you 10 hours.

    Son’s Island

    A tropical oasis right here in Texas!

    Son’s Island is awesome! What a great experience we had. We stayed in one of their glamping tents. It had 2 queen beds and a twin bed but the best part is it had air-conditioning and it stayed very comfortable. You get to use the cabanas for free at night from 7:30 PM - 10:00 am when you rent a tent but you must also rent a cabana for the day if you plan to stay. It is well worth the money. Each cabana comes with its own private dock, lots of comfortable seating, electricity, water, BBQ pit, picnic table and hammock. We heard lots of people rave about this place. It definitely surpassed our expectations!

    Summit Vacation Resort

    Texas Camping at its finest

    We loved the quiet and peace of this RV Resort nestled in Texas Hill Country.

    The Park: they have a large pool area with cafe and snacks. The property is large and spaces are spread out through out the park. The big draw is the Guadalupe River, Canyon Lake, and the woods and hills.

    They have hot shoes, bath houses, laundry.

    The sites: Gravel and mostly level, very few sites were unlevel. You’re surrounded by hills so it is nice and quiet. They are full hook up sites. Each site had a fire ring and picnic table. Small deer herds would move through the park each evening. Many of the campers feed them corn and they know the sounds and come running out of the hills.

    The campground is near grocery and hardware stores. Within an hour are several bigger towns with more stores.

    Cellular: T-Mobile was decent but not great. They do have Campground WiFi that worked faster.

    Landa RV Park & Campground

    The Landa RV Campground + The Comal River + Floating + Fishing = Good Times

    During the summer, Texans flock to the rivers and lakes to enjoy the outdoors and keep cool. Near the town of New Braunfels there are a number of RV parks and campgrounds that can accommodate just about any need.

    In the town of New Braunfels there is an HEB grocery store and Buc-ee's gas station to stock up on any supplies. If you've never stopped at a Buc-ee's gas station you should. Buc-ee's is a mega gas station, convenience store and road side attraction all in one. Their bathrooms are always super clean.

    I was on a little fishing trip and decided to check out a few campgrounds in the area.

    Landa RV park is a solid choice. The staff are super friendly and while it is a small campground, they offer nice amenities. At the entrance of the park there’s a admission office and small store. All the campsites have drive-up parking spaces, electricity, water and the picnic tables. There are some campsites that are located right along the river. I think site #506 is one of the best sties. There is a little premium on the price, but it is well worth it for quick access to the river. RVs are allowed to park at the camping sites along the river. However, there is also a designated RV lot with complete hook ups. There is a community space with some picnic tables. The restroom facilities are located near the RV lot. The facilities are modern and clean with flush toilets and shower stalls. They even have a laundry room on site. Next to the campground there are facilities to rent tubes if you want to float down the river. I actually came to this area to fly fish and I caught a number of small panfish. There are also bass and trout in the river.

    Whether your visiting to fish, float or just relax this campground is a relaxing place to visit.

    Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park™ Camp-Resort: Canyon Lake

    Family fun, better for littles than teens

    We came for the month of January to camp next to friends. It’s a family RV park and has nice amenities. We are just outgrowing the atmosphere. It’s nothing against the park, we just have a teenager. (14) I recommend it for any families with younger kids! If you have a teen who rolls their eyes as a bounce pillow and isn’t interested in miniature golf, probably keep looking.

    Our site is wooded and has a nice fire pit—but unfortunately right now there is a burn ban in Comal County.

    Pet friendly! Has a small dog park.

    Potters Creek Park sites map

    Spacious sites along Canyon Lake

    Nice large sites with covered picnic tables, a fire ring, and a grill. The sites along the lake front do not have trees for shade but the ones in the back row have nice trees. No hiking in the park but the area has nice roads for biking
