      Hidden Valley RV Park

      Quiet, 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.

      Mission City RV Park

      Very nice

      Clean clean clean. Gated park. Gravel and concrete pads. All level with full hookups. Some covered. Clean bathrooms/showers. Large clean laundry facilities. Campers shop. Pool. Everything kept in great condition. Pool temp is perfect! All roads are nicely paved. Lots are close. Definitely great for a night or long term. Highly recommend this park. Park management and personal are polite and professional. Dog wash station and dog walk. Trees scattered around the park offering shade to some sites. Cons: no WIFI/internet available for the complex, no control over the electric motorcycles that the young crowd buzz around the park even though the speed limit is 5mph it’s not observed or patrolled.

      Fort Sam Houston Army RV

      Nice and quiet

      Clean campground, laundry facilities available. Close enough to everything in San Antonio. Can’t beat the prices. Must be rated veteran to get on base.

      Tiny Homes and RV Resort

      My husband has two years assigned and we set him up in a tiny home away from home. Michelle is an amazing manager and caring person. She doesn’t get pushed around and I respect that. She’s very sweet.

      Debbie is as sweet as pie. She works in the office and is a tenant here. I think she’s a great person.

      San Antonio Alamo KOA

      Best KOA I’ve Stayed At

      An oasis within San Antonio. Secure, safe, clean, spacious, extremely friendly staff. Best KOA we’ve ever stayed at. Nearby walking trail access. Pool is heavenly, especially during the hot summer TX days. City bus access right outside the KOA gate; felt safe riding the bus ~20 minutes to the Riverwalk downtown. Store has good stock is snacks and supplies. Pizza/wings for purchase every day from 4-8pm.

      Tejas Valley RV Park & Campground

      Avoid this RV Park!

      You want to see someone have a power trip? Look no further! The guy managing the place always has a problem with repair companies getting his residents fixed. Always demanding crazy things just to appease him. He’s threatened to call the cops on for not“checking in” with him, when we checked in with his wife and he just wasn’t informed.

      He calls me today and tells me we can no longer provide rv repair service there because of another power trip move. Stay far away. The guy managing the place is a complete joke and so rude to everyone that comes thru there.

       I hope the owner realizes why he’s getting bad reviews. It’s because of bad management. His wife is an amazing woman. It’s Greg that’s the issue. For those wanting to stay here. Stay far away. Unless you like to be micro managed on everything you do.

      San Antonio Alamo KOA

      ok campground, good location

      Nice site at back of lot near walking path. Unfortunately lots of traffic noise even at back of lot due to an interstate nearby (not road in front). Did laundry- good facilities- need quarters. Decided to sit in lounge next door and read. Well a family came in with several children who were loud and running around- then they left the children there by themselves!!! (5, 6 years old) I finally had to use my teacher voice and tell them to quiet down and stop running around. This lounge should be labeled for adults- there are plenty of other spaces for children. My biggest disappointment was there was no hot water in the shower. KOA's are expensive ($100)- how can you not have hot water for the shower!!!! (and yes, I let it run for a long time).They also had nowhere that you could park your RV to take the bus into town (We were leaving that afternoon but with checkout so early we would not get back in time) so we had to drive the RV to the Alamo. There was absolutely NO RV parking downtown.

      Tejas Valley RV Park & Campground

      Gorgeous place.

      Gorgeous place. No need to go anywhere, everything is here. Friendly service and resort owners. Plenty to do. No tipping at resort. Felt odd, but that was the policy. Centrally located to fast food and great sit down meals. We'll be back.

    Guide to Jourdanton

    Camping options near Jourdanton, Texas extend throughout Atascosa County and neighboring areas. Located approximately 40 miles south of San Antonio, this region experiences hot summers with temperatures often exceeding 95°F from June through September. Winter camping offers milder conditions with average daytime highs in the 60s. Most campgrounds in this area sit at elevations between 400-500 feet above sea level.

    What to do

    Fishing opportunities: Choke Canyon State Park Campground offers access to its 26,000-acre reservoir despite fluctuating water levels. "We stayed in shelter #9 and it was perfect. The view of the lake from our site was awesome and there was a hiking trail right behind our spot," notes Rebeca L. The park maintains shoreline fishing access even during low water periods.

    Wildlife observation: 30 minutes before sunrise provides optimal viewing times at most campgrounds. "Nature is all around! We camped there and just some meters from our tent we got to see a bunch of deers, bunnies, wild turkeys and plenty of colorful birds!" reports Miriam M. about her experience at Choke Canyon. Early morning walks yield the most wildlife sightings.

    Biking trails: connect several campgrounds to nearby attractions. Mission City RV Park provides convenient access to urban paths. "There is an awesome walk/bike path about a mile away. Very peaceful and easy terrain for a great walk or bike ride," reports Kathy H. The Salado Creek Greenway trailhead sits just a mile from the park on Belgium Lane.

    What campers like

    Security features: provide peace of mind at several campgrounds. Mission City RV Park implements controlled access gates with personalized codes. "Security is excellent and everyone is given a unique code for the car gate," notes one reviewer. This attention to security allows campers to explore San Antonio without worrying about unattended belongings.

    Camp store availability: varies between locations. Travelers World RV Resort maintains supplies beyond basic necessities. "The office is really clean and nice, the camp ground is pretty well kept and clean, nice laundry area," reports Alura E. The resort sells pressure regulators for its high water pressure system.

    Social activities: create community among campers at several parks. Hidden Valley RV Park organizes regular gatherings. "Weekly morning coffee and evening campfire gatherings on Saturdays," mentions one reviewer. These scheduled events help solo travelers connect with others during extended stays.

    What you should know

    Seasonal considerations: impact camping comfort dramatically. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 95°F, requiring early morning activities. "Morning walks along established paths provide exercise opportunities before the Texas heat intensifies," notes one camper. Most parks recommend bringing sunshades for any outdoor cooking or gathering spaces.

    Variable maintenance: affects campground facilities throughout the area. Braunig Lake Park shows inconsistent upkeep. "The area borders the lake and there are several places to set up your tent, w/shelter and grill. Maintenance, not so much. Spotty mowing," reports Shelly S. Visitors should check recent reviews before booking.

    Transportation options: connect campgrounds to attractions. Mission City RV Park provides public transit access. "Taking the bus to the Riverwalk area and Alamo made our experience even better because we didn't have to find parking or look for directions," states Kathy I. Several campgrounds offer rideshare services with reliable cellular coverage.

    Tips for camping with families

    Cabin accommodations: provide comfort for families with young children. Alamo River RV Ranch Resort & Campground maintains several cabin options. "We called ahead and got a good idea of what we needed and what to expect. Upon arrival, we were beyond impressed. Wendy was so helpful and accommodating," shares Erica T. Many cabins include air conditioning crucial during summer months.

    Swimming facilities: offer relief from heat at select dog friendly campgrounds near Jourdanton. Vista Ridge RV Park maintains both pool and hot tub facilities. "Pool, hot tub, fitness center, laundry, dog park, golf cart rentals, clubhouse, and much more!" reports Rachel P. Most pools operate seasonally from April through October.

    Package receiving services: assist traveling families at some locations. Hidden Valley RV Park accommodates deliveries. "Your packages can be sent there just not usps mail," notes one reviewer. This service allows families to order supplies or receive care packages during extended stays.

    Tips from RVers

    Leveling conditions: vary between campgrounds in the Jourdanton area. Mission City RV Park maintains level sites with consistent surfaces. "The sites are close together but level. Some sites have cement pads. Most are gravel with a picnic table," reports Kathy H. RVers should inquire about pad materials when making reservations.

    Access roads: present challenges at some pet-friendly campgrounds. Vista Ridge RV Park provides well-maintained approaches. "This is a beautiful park outside of the city on the river. 30 minutes to downtown. The owners are awesome people and there is a real pride of ownership shown in the upkeep around the park," states Rachel P. Many parks require navigation through rural roads with variable conditions.

    Tree clearance: impacts RV access at several parks. Braunig Lake Park presents overhead obstacles. "Well we spent 3 nights here and it wasn't what we had hoped. If you have a large or tall rig RV don't even bother. The trees are the main issue," warns Zachary H. RVers should specify rig height when booking at wooded campgrounds.
