    Spacious Skies Bear Den Review

    Camp Creek sounds idyllic! A true escape from the digital world. Imagine trading your phone for a fishing rod, and the constant notifications for the sound of the river. It's like the real-world version of Snow Rider 3D, but instead of virtual slopes, you're navigating the great outdoors. The simplicity and the views alone seem worth the trip, a perfect recharge for the soul. Just remember to bring everything you need to fully embrace the off-grid experience!

    spacious, comfortable & lovely campsite!

    We were seeking a free campsite for us and our dogs when traveling from San Antonio to Austin, Texas and landed here for one night! It was a "self check-in" process and we did not research the price or see a direct sign, so left $5 due to the "entrance fee" - oops! We found out later it was $25 for the overnight camping. Not free, but worth it. 

    I enjoyed the spaciousness of this campsite. It felt private, although there were large groups of campers all around. We walked down to the Colorado River where the dogs enjoyed swimming. Perfect for paddle boards, kayaking, or picnicking on the small beach.

    Krause Springs

    Eggy Car

    This sounds like an amazing place to escape the Texas heat! The rope swing and swimming holes sound perfect for a fun day trip. It's good to know about the uneven paths though, thanks for the heads up. Makes me think twice about bringing my low-rider, Eggy Car, since it might not handle the terrain. Maybe next time I'll need to borrow a friend's truck for the weekend. Definitely adding Krause Springs to my list!
