"Plenty of space between sites and extra wide paved roads and sites. No picnic table, but it did have an outdoor table with 2 chairs."
"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."
"It has nice bathrooms with AC, hot showers, wifi and electricity in some parts of the camp. It's greatest feature is the lake. You can fish, swim and boat all night. Lots of wildlife."
"Medina Lake Thousand Trails RV Park is an awesome campground with large sites and lot of nature! There are trees and shade and it is along Medina Lake shores."
"Located in the hills about 10 miles from Bandera, TX, this campground is the perfect place to disconnect (you won’t get signal anyways) and hike, run or horseback ride through a plethora of trails."
"Set up two tents at one site, and had plenty of space for everyone. The hiking was great with some challenging trails and some moderate ones, which allowed us to explore quite a bit of the park."
"Space was great and clean, hookups were easy to access. We had a problem when we arrived getting electric but Paul came over and solved our problem (it was our converter which we did not need)."
"One hidden gem I hadn’t yet discovered was Boulderdash Cabin And RV on Lake Medina just outside of Bandera."

"Large RV park with lots of spaces and trees. Very pretty park with lots of deer. Two negatives are the roads are gravel that is pressed into the dirt so the roads are muddy when raining."
GuideQuiet, yet close to San Antonio. It’s only a few miles of I35, but feels like you’re out in the country. Mostly longer term stayers (we’re here for a few months), but they do a very nice job of keeping the campground feel instead of the trailer park vibe. Nice dog area and walking also. Quite happy.
TravelerI'm at park host. Love everything here. Staff wonderful. We'll kept grounds. People keep coming back, some over 40 year time frame. River is safe, river is not deep or fast current.
TravelerBeautiful area, very nice people working there. Bathrooms were clean and the whole area was clean. Spots are very close together.
GuideThis is a wonderful park and campground! Hiking and biking trails galore. Deer were everywhere. It's along the Guadalupe River which still bears flood scars from last summer. Very few people this time of year.
GuideThis is a great park for a few days weeks, or a season. The sites are a decent size whether back in or pull through. All have full hookups with level sites and a picnic table. There are two dog parks, a bouncy feature, playground, basketball court, I door and outdoor pools with hot tubs as well as laundromats, exercise room, clean bathrooms with showers. They also have very nice cabins. There is a huge community/rally room with a full kitchen as well as a game room. The park has planned activities. The staff is friendly and helpful. They even have golf cars for rent. The park is located next to a river for fishing.
TravelerI visited Camp Riverview in late October. What a gorgeous place! This is such a special place with private access to the Frio River in the Texas Hill country
The signage is great out at the highway and on the county Road. Easy to find, and easy for large rigs to navigate and park.
Someone worked very hard to build up the RV sites. They are giant, level, and raised, bordered by railroad ties. They look great. I like the decks hanging off the back. I like that the sites are all bordered with the railroad ties. It defines them and keeps the grass from growing over it.
The cabins in pastel themes look matching and cute. Good use of the same color throughout the property.
The bathhouse signage is cute. Pink and blue bathroom signs with guys and girls symbols.
Golf carts to rent. Well stocked camp store. Ice. So much river frontage. It's incredible! And absolutely beautiful.
GuideI have stayed at this park several times including rallies. It's nicely laid out with well kept facilities. The community room is huge with a nice kitchen. The indoor swimming pool and hot tub are a real bonus during inclement weather.
TravelerThere are approximately 4 sites across the street from the river. They’re concrete slabs. No vegetation. Couldn’t find anyone to try to reserve with then realized they’re just concrete slabs so we left.
ScoutClean and very well maintained park on the Guadalupe River. Sites are spacious and beautiful trees have been planted everywhere. This park has amenities for the whole family. Two pools, including a heated indoor pool and hot tub. Two play grounds and one of them is covered and located next to a jump pad. The bathrooms were always clean and even have private showers. They also have very nice cabins for those who don’t have r.vs. The staff are some of the friendliest and are very helpful. They go above and beyond for their guests. We cannot wait to return for our next camping trip.

I would recommend getting there early it is first come first serve which we also like."
Spacious layouts: Properties avoid overcrowding with well-separated cabin sites. A visitor reported, "This park was close to a local event we wanted to attend, and we were very happy with it and will definitely go back... Most sites had a stone or wood picnic table, shady trees, and a fire ring." Cabin sites typically include outdoor seating areas with fire rings.
Natural surroundings: Kerrville-Schreiner Park cabins provide access to wildlife viewing. According to a recent guest, "We saw a deer, squirrels, and even a herd of blackbuck antelope. Our particular site was number 121 and it had a feral cat shelter, which we saw several of the cats and one caretaker stop by."

Local attractions: Use cabin stays as base camps for exploring nearby towns. A guest mentioned, "We drove to Mac & Earnie's one day to find out they were closed for the holiday BBQ. Don't be bummed out by the other local residents, the area doesn't look the best when driving in (lots of garbage) the campgrounds were very clean with nice touches."
