TravelerBrand new RV park 2025. Nice, has some coveted sites to keep you cool and protect your rig from the weather.
ScoutI recently stayed at Sienna Ridge RV Park in Canyon Lake, Texas, and I can honestly say it was one of the most relaxing RV trips I’ve had in a while. The park is tucked away in the beautiful Texas Hill Country, just a short drive from Canyon Lake and the Guadalupe River, which made it perfect for swimming, tubing, and enjoying nature. The RV sites are spacious, clean, and come with full hookups—everything worked flawlessly. I really appreciated the peaceful atmosphere; it was quiet at night and felt incredibly safe. The restrooms and laundry facilities were spotless, and the Wi-Fi was strong enough for me to stream and check in on work when needed. What really stood out, though, was how friendly and welcoming the staff were. They went out of their way to make sure I felt at home. As someone traveling with a dog, I also loved how pet-friendly the park was—there was plenty of space for walks and play. If you're looking for a comfortable, quiet place to park your RV near Canyon Lake, I highly recommend Sienna Ridge RV Park. It’s a hidden gem with all the essentials and that personal touch that makes all the difference.
TravelerWe’re back! I came with my daughter and granddaughter for a nice, relaxing getaway. I let the office know it was just us ladies and they surveyed the area to see how many folks were staying in the area to make me feel more at ease. One of the ladies also let me know where she stays, in case we need anything at night. Gates close at 10pm and I saw the staff circle by a few times throughout the evening and morning to check in on us. It makes me feel so safe. As always our campsite was clean, restrooms fully stocked with TP and soap and showers have hot water which was nice since it was a cold evening. Can’t wait to come back again.
TravelerHighly recommended. Very friendly staff, well-maintained site, great pool, and clean restrooms/showers. We would definitely come back. Great location near downtown Fredericksburg.
ScoutWe stayed two nights at this campground. The spots are right on the water, like I can walk 10 steps and throw a fishing line.
The store has everything a camper might need. There is firewood for 5 bucks a bag, the staff doesn't mess with people, and it felt safe here.
I'll be coming back for sure. What a wonderful experience.
GuideThis camp is so much more than an RV camp. River access is down a series of steps. Water is beautifully shallow and slow moving. Office store staff are sweet and friendly. Buy camp necessities, souvenirs, rent tubes for the river. Cabins for rent also. Lots of space in campground. Level sites. Clean bathhouse. Fabulous pool, hot tub. Cute playground for kids.
TravelerDecided to head up for a quick trip and we had the most relaxing time. Although water is low there were folks who fished. Showers were clean and RR had plenty of TP and soap. We will def be back.
RangerLarge city-run park that straddles hwy. This site had water, 30 amp service, no sewer but dump near by the restrooms. Restrooms were run down, but clean enough, very hot shower water. LOTS of trees, birds, sites mostly level. Quiet. As noted, by other review, it is large and you'll need to take a map with you if you leave and return at night. There is a gate code to get back in, after hours. Some reviews noted a lot of road noise from hwy, but we were not anywhere near hwy, so NO noise. However, the south side of park is directly below airport approach and landing and pvt. jets and general aviation aircraft could be noisy and quite low over campground.
