We had an amazing stay at Alamo Fiesta RV Resort! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, Retro Bowl College with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
We’ve been coming to Garner for over 25 years. Tent camped, stayed in the screened shelters, and recently RVed, but this is the first time I’ve stayed in this camp ground. I like that it is in “Old Garner”, so it is close to more of the trails, the main swimming area, the store, etc. but it is far enough away to be free of the noise and other activities that go with Old Garner. I’ve stayed in Okd Garner in the winter because it isn’t so busy and things are more chill (pardon the pun) but stayed in New Garner in the Summer to avoid the noise. Here I get the best of both - and this site has Full Hookups (look for the Pull thrus, as not all have full hookups). In short, this can’t be beat. I’m the only draw back is the sites are narrower (at least the pull thrus are) and the picnic tables are not covered. Not enough to even shave a little off the 5th Star, but that is my only complaint.
Very friendly, close walk to the town and facilities very clean
Very clean campsite with other permanent RV live in. Dianne was very friendly and was very helpful In getting me check in after hours. Great place I recommend staying here.
The park was clean. However the grass around the electrical outlet and water was very tall and snaky looking at 9:30pm at night.

This is a great place to sit for a couple of days. Easy access off of I10 and far enough away to muffle the sound. The park is clean, and the hosts are friendly and helpful. They allow their chickens and goats to roam freely around the park. We watched a group of does headed down to the river to water. We purchased a dozen eggs and some ice from the store, and the camp host delivered them to us. I we travel I10 again this will be one of our stops again. Might just take a couple of extra days and explore the area.
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.
I stayed one night and found the park to be well maintained and clean. Great for families given the proximity to the water and trail systems—there were lots of big family groups, so if you want a quieter retreat it may not be the best. Bathrooms are older, but the hot water was great. Large parking lots for those with primitive sites.
Our RV GPS took us right to the park where you check in at their headquarters building. Check in was quick and we proceeded to pull through site 9 with FHUs. Site 9 is only a pull though if site 8 is not occupied. The sites in this area are set up on both sides of the road with you parking in a line, parallel style. There are white lines painted on the road to designate where the sites begin and end. Once unhitched, we were able to park our F450 adjacent to our 5th wheel. The park has cable TV with lots of channels. We got 4 bars on Verizon. The utilities are towards the back of the site, and we needed 15’ for sewer, 20’ for water, and 20’ for electric. The water pressure was good at about 50 psi. We had a clear shot to the north sky for Starlink. A south sky satellite shot may be iffy due to the mature trees in that direction. The WiFi was okay for a CG this size. Site 9 is near the playground and one of the two shower/restroom facilities. The sites in this campground (CG) are for the most part close together, especially in the front area near the entrance. There’s a large fenced dog park along with plenty of areas to walk your dog. With the county airport adjacent to the CG, we enjoyed watching the wide variety of small aircraft. We enjoyed playing a round of golf at the course adjacent to the CG and touring the local wineries.
Our RV GPS wanted to take us farther east on I-10 to exit 455, but we followed the campground’s (CG) website’s westbound instructions that matched Waze and Google Maps. From Exit 451 to the CG was an easy drive. We were met as we entered the (CG) by the owner, Brenda. We had asked for a satellite-friendly site and she had us going to back-in site 9, but thought we might like a pull through site better. She led the way in her golf cart to look at each of the sites. We stuck with our original plan and took back-in site 9 with FHUs. When we were checking out sites, we were met by the farm’s goats, which was really cool. We had no issues with the utilities and the water pressure was good. Although Brenda had identified a water leak at our site, Robert quickly ensured it wouldn't affect our stay. We got 3 bars on Verizon, and though trees are scattered about in the CG, we had no issues putting out our Starlink. Campsites are nicely spaced apart with a picnic table and fire pit. The only discount they give is military due to their son currently serving. Later after we got set up, Robert and Brenda came by to deliver the farm fresh eggs that we ordered at check-in. At the CG’s quaint little store, you can start a tab for items such as eggs, jams/jellies, ice, and firewood. The store also has hats, t-shirts, sweatshirts, soaps, and laundry items. They do not have a laundry but we found a nice one in Junction. They have a very clean shower house. The owners are super accommodating and sincerely care how your stay goes. At the end of your stay, they bill you for any remaining balance for your site and for any items you purchased from the store. There was plenty of space to walk our dogs around the property of this large pecan farm along the river. This was one of the best private CGs we’ve stayed.
Fantastic location for Hill Country! Primarily big rigs and folks wanting full hookups, not many folks hanging outside-either in their vehicle or away exploring. Lots of grass, not much shade/plants and zero wildflowers despite height of season. Bathrooms not very clean, especially moldy shower grout. Many county workers buzzing around early morning but all prepping for eclipse, not cleaning.
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.
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 stayed here for a few days during the eclipse. Good site but a little noisy.
Great staff. Large sites. Full hookups. Great location. Close to I-10.
This RV resort looked amazing in photos and the price was reasonable and the location close to the adorable and friendly town of Fredricksburg, Texas. We were there mid-week and the park was about 1/4 full. Most of the park includes tiny homes as well as large RV lots. We have a 23" foot travel trailer and were the little fish in a big pond.
The amenities of the clubhouse are very nice - brand new! The pool is gorgeous but there is not spa and it was too cold for swimming in a very cold pool. The other amenities are really nice including the laundry room. Otherwise, not much else going on in the park.
A few things we didn't like - we appreciate a secure, safe RV resort but they have way too many staff driving around on loud ATVs/Carts and they are loud! They literally drove by our site every 30 minutes, day & night. It was super strange and I felt like I was in the tv show handmaids tale with the nonstop eyes!
The town of Fredericksburg is really cute with lots of shops, wineries, fine dining and bars. Our dog needed to see an emergency vet for an abscess removal and the Hill Country vet was so amazing - they took us right in and treated Hank. Overall, friendly people in the town and we enjoyed the visit.
Nice park but unfortunately overnight in your RV is no longer allowed. It’s posted throughout the park that only tent camping is allowed and day use only for RVs.
As a football fan, I was very impressed with A Small World Cup. The game has beautiful graphics, realistic and competitive gameplay.
We were headed to Tucson for a quick visit. The staff were very nice. The site was level and quiet. The river was low but beautiful.
We will go again.
We visited in the off season and the place was pretty empty. The only service is AT&T. Great hiking and nice river views.
Staff was very friendly and did everything to attend to our needs
Had a private party out there and it was amazing - staff was so helpful and I got with them in advance - rented the deck and the jacuzzi for a private night! They set it up so romantic- it is something I will never forget!
We rented a tiny home and RV spot. It was wonderful. We also rented a golf cart to use at the resort. Our two day trip was$1000 but worth it. Had to pay$10 each for the dogs and$10 for my 5 yr old grandson which we knew up front and we're ok with. Upon arrival saw a dog park and a nice young man showed us to our spot and helped us back in. We then asked if the tiny home was pet friendly as the literature we received at the gate mentioned pet friendly units. The young man called up to the office and was told it was pet friendly. We had planned to keep my daughters dogs in the trailer with us but as they were crying for their momma and we were told it was pet friendly we let her take them with her. A fabulous trip and memory making Thanksgiving....that's where the goodness ended. After leaving we received a notice we would be charged a fee to deep clean the unit after we"broke the rules". Who spends that kind of money and the"breaks the rules"? We explained the man called and got cleared but we're told he denied the entire episode. So if you dare experience make sure you get EVERYTHING in writing.
Friendly staff that helped us out when we were late and had no reservation! Close to the river, clean restrooms, pretty quiet overnight except for some traffic noise from the bridge.
Stayed for two November nights in the Live Oak campsite (site 328). Park was very well maintained. Bathrooms were clean albeit the one in Live Oak had no hot water. Not a big issue as the adjacent site bathroom was just as close for us. For our 22ft trailer the space was adequate, but would have been tight for a longer rig. A lot of the spaces at the various camping areas looked somewhat short, but for us it wasn’t an issue. Most sites seemed to have good shade and the trees provided nice privacy. All in all it was very peaceful, hiking trails were excellent, and the scenery is awesome.
10 out of 10 would recommend.
