    Shelter Area Cabin 13 was awesome

    Stayed here for a weekend with my family. So nice to have AC in the cabin with shade on the little patio area. I’m convinced site 13 is the best. Only con was that others were using it to get down to the lake so we had a few people walk right up next to the cabin with their fishing gear. Bathrooms are a short walk away, as well as trash cans/dumpster. Woke up to a large group of javelinas at our site who were sniffing around. We set up a tent at the cabin area and were able to have lots of shade.

    Shelter from the Storm

    We stayed here 2/13/21 to 2/18/21 during the Texas Extreme Cold and Snow event!

    We had originally planned to go to Junction after our time in Lockhart State Park, but wanted to get further South away from the snow and cold. We easily switched our reservation to here although it was supposed to be full. Due to the weather, very few people around. Sites are huge. Had water and power at our site and we were close to restroom. We were in #108 which was also a Handicap site. After a day or so the water froze up so the bathrooms were closed as they were flush toilets' with showers. Luckily we filled our tank so we had water to use. We lost power for about 12 hours total but then got it back. It was down to 15 degrees a couple nights and we got a little snow and ice but we survived being from Wisconsin LOL

    Also just down from us was a Bird Sanctuary where they put out fruit and seed. The Bird watching all over the park was fantastic. Not sure what's going on in the area where the buildings and nature center are, pretty run down and seem almost vacated. Saw tons of deer and feral hogs and Javelin  and roadrunners etc. 

    Didn't plan to come here but really glad we did!

    Great location, great management, great price

    We stayed 5 nights visiting San Antonio. 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.

    Pool, hot tub, fitness center, laundry, dog park, golf cart rentals, clubhouse, and much more!

    Nice and quiet.

    We stopped for the night on the way into North Padre Island. It was a perfect stop after a long day of driving. The sites are large and well spaced. With 50 amp power and water at each site as well as a dump station at the entrance, it has all we need. And it was fun listening to an owl just after sunset.

    The management is great, friendly helpful and someone one looks forward to talk to.

    The campsite is really nice, the picnic table is brand new. The bath house is as clean as the ours at the house. The grass was cut short and there is no mud. Plenty of shade nice river with a great trail to it. We love this place.

    Campground needs TLC

    Fine place to stop on the way through and very friendly staff. There is a petting zoo with miniature donkeys and horses, goats and emus! This was a wonderful treat feeding the critters. Sites are small, dirt and uneven. Pictures show a playground, dog park, etc., however, none of these things exist. It looks like they did at one point, but not in the last decade. No atvs or activities listed on website which was frustrating for the kids. Lake was entirely dry—of course no fault of the campground, but didn’t allow for fishing, etc. There were plenty of sites available but we were placed right by the train tracks and main highway. I do understand why, though, because there are quite a few permanent folks toward the back of the park.

Guide to Kenedy

Cabin options near Kenedy, Texas include primitive and upgraded accommodations spread across several state parks and private campgrounds within driving distance. These facilities occupy a region characterized by the South Texas Plains ecosystem, with elevations ranging from 200-400 feet and average summer temperatures exceeding 90°F. Winter temperatures typically stay above freezing, making cabin camping accessible year-round in this semi-arid region.

What to do

Explore historical sites: Goliad State Park features significant Texas historical landmarks within walking distance of cabin accommodations. "This park was so great. There was all kinds of history there that you can see for very low prices and also for free. In the tone of Goliath at their courthouse to have a famous hanging tree that was used to hang people still standing," notes visitor Red S. from Goliad State Park and Historic Site.

Wildlife observation: The cabin areas at Choke Canyon State Park provide excellent wildlife viewing opportunities. "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. from Calliham-Choke Canyon State Park.

Fishing and water activities: Cabin rentals at multiple parks offer fishing access. "The lake in the middle has catch and release. The fattest catfish I've ever seen. It will however, make you upset releasing since the fish are well fed," mentions Brandy W. about Greenlake RV Resort.

What campers like

Spacious sites: Cabins and camping areas tend to have good spacing between sites. "Each site is very spacious. Lots of trees and shade for South Texas," reports Katie M. about Goliad State Park's camping areas.

Clean facilities: Many cabins near Kenedy maintain good sanitation standards. "Great place to stay and residents are respectful of each other and owners are great, would recommend to anyone. And very clean facility," says Tyler T. about Greenlake RV Resort.

Shaded options: Several cabin locations offer tree cover, important in the South Texas heat. "Great historic site. Shady trails, too, along the river. We stayed at site 14. It looks like number 17 and number 19 are real shady," suggests Kimberly V. about Longhorn Camping Area.

What you should know

Seasonal insect considerations: During certain months, bugs can be problematic at cabin sites. "The sites weren't too bad, but there were a lot of ants and insects around that's even more than usual. Definitely bring a tent screen. I don't think it's specific to the campsite as there were insects all around town, or probably due to the time of year," warns Bree W. from Goliad State Park.

Noise levels vary: Some cabin areas experience road or rail noise. "Fine place to stop on the way through and very friendly staff. There is a petting zoo with miniature donkeys and horses, goats and emus! This was a wonderful treat feeding the critters. Sites are small, dirt and uneven," reports Nick & Allyssa S. about Mustang Hollow Campground.
