    Great palace to stop.

    Desk people are very friendly and even checked their Uber app to check how much the trip to a restaurant would cost. Heated pool. Showers are large and spacious. DVD, book, and cd library. Gated Rv park. The front-end shop had everything we wanted.

    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!

    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.

    UP IN THE HILLS

    Stayed on the 'hill side' and really enjoyed the park. Most sites you pull in paralllel to the road which is nice. Had deer through our site every day. Really good hiking but some of the trails were closed due to race events. Close to town and not too far of a drive to Fredericksburg and went to the Nat'l Pacific War Museum and that was well worth the drive. Here in October so park was about 1/8 full if even that.

    Travel

    The area featured trees on the opposite side and was a larger Bloxstrap premium location. It was really easy to pull in, park, and set up. The toilets were handy, and the neighborhood is rather calm.

    If you're looking for a baby horror game, this is it. Do you understand?

    Be very careful when you play the basketball challenge. Playing this game requires caution and good judgment, much like the terrifying"the baby in yellow" game. During a basketball game, collaboration is usually more valued than hostility. If you want to win the game, you need to learn to focus solely on the ball and the hoop when those moments happen.

    Great tent camping

    The tent sites are huge and spread apart. Picnic tables and fire rings at each site. Flush toilets and showers. A highway run through the camp so there is some noise from that, mainly during the day. Town is 2 miles away.

    Still nice 7 years later

    Stopped here a second time, 7 years after our first visit. Still a nice spot for exploring The Alamo, San Antonio Missions, Riverwalk, and more. Bus stop right in front to get to main attractions. Several nice bathrooms/shower buildings. Great walking trail for pets

    Needs better customer service

    We had reservations for Alamo Fiesta and were running late. The directions from the internet didn’t get us to the right place. We called the office at 5:00 pm and got voicemail. No one called back. Finally found them with help from locals. No one in the office. Everything was dark. Our late check in info was not in their box. Luckily I had a pre assigned site number. Found a map in the trash by the door. We found the site and set up ok. But No pass code for bathrooms or internet! We were able to use laundry without a code. They were clean and everything there worked. Can’t comment on bathroom because we couldn’t get in! Guys playing pool in the rec room said that the bathroom were closed!

    I guess they dont want my business

    I would have loved to write a glowing review about this place, but they never responded to two reservation requests via the Dyrt camping app, so i'm giving them one star for poor customer service. 

    Zero stars would of course have been more appropriate
