We really enjoyed our stay at the buckhorn! That facility was clean, the pool and hot tub was nice, And the location was good for us.

2019 Ok, first the good. Large RV spots with full hookups. You won’t feel crowded when your parked beside your neighbor. The park has an awesome walking trail. If you want a good workout walk up to the Texas flag observation point. Folks mostly use the lower trail which is about half a mile trek. Up at the Flag you’ll see a beautiful scenic shot of the valley. The Wi-Fi was good at spot where we stayed, but there’s no phone service in the entire park. I understand that RVC Inc. bought the park a couple years ago. I noticed a few things already going downhill. for instance the Hot tub next to the pool is heated but no jets are working. I hope RVC Inc spends the money to fix this, otherwise it’s just a bathtub. They have a garden hose dribbling water into the hot tub 24/7. The Pool is not heated, so useless for winter Texans. but I’ll bet it’s just great in the summertime. See pics) Many of the lights on top of the electric posts were not working, so it’s dark out when you take your dog for that last walk before bedtime. They have a great Office/Store and a restaurant (closed during winter months) They have a pool and shuffleboard tables and outdoor dining tables. Great Biker stop to cool down with a cold one. RVC inc does require a background check ($40) for each person planning on an extended stay. We did a month

This park has been open for just over a year. They are adding amenities, but for what is there right now, it was a bit pricey. Yes, I'm sure the pricing was upped due to Mardi Gras weekend. It will be nice when tables and grills/fire rings are added for each site, but right now, it's basic full-hookups and not much more.

The BEST hidden secret for camping in Texas. I mean wonderful camping privacy. Can’t beat the friendly Christian atmosphere
TravelerThe main focus of the resort is the cabins, so the tent camping area is nice and quiet. Clean bathrooms, a nice pool area and hot showers were available to the tent areas. Now if the drought could fill the two ponds, this would be a really great getaway.
Guide
This is a real cozy, well taken care of site with a very accommodating staff. Each spot has a grill and fire pit with plenty of parking space, there’s clean spacious showers/ bathroom and kayak rentals for the water access on site. I’d definitely come back with my RV and rent a cabin for my friends.
RangerSometimes it is nice to stay in cabins instead of a tent or RV. Normally when my family and I go we will stay in a tent or take our RV, depending on how long we are going to stay. These cabins are super cute, and have great names for them. One of them is named " The George Straight." I love little special touches like this. There is a swimming pool on site which was nice to keep us cool in the Texas summer heat. Although the pool was pretty busy with kids! We didn't mind this since the lake was only a few hundred yards away. In the morning we had coffee at the small table in the cabin and could see the beautiful lake through the window. Also, seeing the white tail deer walking around the campground was incredible, too. Nothing like being able to see wildlife like this! Lots of chipmunks/squirrels as well that are definitely used to humans being around. There are shaded areas with picnic tables on site as well as grills for BBQ. They also have a café on site that serves meals during the weekends. We enjoyed having this as an option, although we brought plenty of food for our cabin to munch on. We did some hiking nearby which was a lot of fun, and had views of the entire lake. We also played in the lake, BBQ and enjoyed some people watching. Overall, we look forward to the next time we can come again!

We took a four day trip to stay in cabin at this KOA because we love KOAs. The campground is clean and there’s lots to do however I would not return in summer as it was so hot in summer and there was no way to cool off in the cabins. We checked out early because we couldn’t handle it with two small kids.
Scout
We have been going to Garner since I was a kid. We have stayed in the tent area and the cabin areas. Every day during the summer is a dance at night in the pavilion so bring your dancing shoes. The summer time is so busy at Garner so get there really early if you are going for a day trip. Cabins and campsites sell out months in advance. You can rent tubes but don't forget to bring old shoes for the water or your feet will hurt!
ScoutThis is the best campground around. Great campsites. Lots to do. Great store. Cabins! The Frio is the best.
Guide
this was a great location for spending some time on the medina river and close to medina lake. we camped in the tent camping area above the cabin. it's a bit of a steep walk from the campsite to the river, but not bad. we were able to carry our kayake with no problem. we were also able to use part of the grassy lawn next to the cabin which is closer to the river. only downside was a lot of dogs barking all night long. but if the time of year is right you will see fireflies and lots of deer. overall we enjoyed it a lot.
Guide
We had perfect weather for 3 days. All the amenities you'd want. Right on the Guadalupe River so I could kayak easily. Very well kept and clean. Cabins for rent too.
GuideLove this place. It has so many hidden treasures. Ponds, trails, cabins, swings, pool tables, a small stage for performances…. But more than that, an outstanding staff that keeps it all running smoothly.
ScoutThis place was amazing I didn’t even know it existed Friendly staff, beautiful scenery and even some nice hiking trails can’t wait to go back We stayed in a cabin and really enjoyed it
RangerPark is city run and split into two sections by a highway. Beautiful butterfly and nature garden, kid playground, camping and river access on one side. The other has hiking and biking trails along with camping. Multiple cabins and group camping areas on both sides.
Ranger
If your friends and family don't like camping, tell 'em to think again! Similar to other Jellystone Resorts around the country. Not a great place for peace & quiet in nature but a decent value with so much to do. We stayed in cabins, very clean and modern.
GuideStacy was wonderful to work with and we really enjoyed our stay. Large wide RV spaces with full hookups with great views of the river. This park also offers cabins as well as vintage trailers for your stay. There is a lovely walking/biking trail that also has picnic tables and BBQ grills.
GuideI am a little biassed because this place is mine, but if you are looking for a non commercial natural environment.........boulderdash is great! It only has 3 RV sites 2 50 amp 1 30 amp and a rustic roughing it site for tents. There is also a cabin that sleeps 7 for those who don't have a camper.
TravelerI have stayed here twice, once in one of the cabins and the last time I camped with a group. I just love this park. The Frio River runs along side it. There are enough large hills to hike to challenge any hiker. The first time I went there was a butterfly migration that took my breath away.
LegendTexas is such a large state finding great campgrounds can quickly get a little overwhelming. There are so many amazing outdoor spaces and camping options that unless you really have something specific in mind you can get caught up comparing sites trying to determine which is the perfect fit for you.
This has always been the case for me in my home state and I feel as though I have missed many great locations as a result. One hidden gem I hadn’t yet discovered was Boulderdash Cabin And RV on Lake Medina just outside of Bandera.
I was pleased to have this one brought to my attention and after booking through The Dyrt’s new online booking system I packed up my car in anticipation of a great trip down south. My original day to visit was met by some of the unpredictable Texas weathers, torrential downpour lasting 2 two days. I say that to say this, the campground owner and hosts were fully understanding of the predicament of me being a tent camper and unable to fully be able to enjoy the location in such conditions. As a result they allowed me to push my reservation, something many campgrounds would not be so accommodating to do.
This set the tone for my trip and was echoed throughout my stay, amazing and kind customer service!

Campground Review:
Finally arriving at my site mid afternoon after a long drive, I was ready to get out and explore but also relax. I was greeted by the campground hosts upon my arrival with such a pleasant and welcoming reception. They showed me to my site, gave me a short tour of the small camp and told me a bit about the area so I could fully enjoy the amenities and know what to expect for a nights stay at the location.
Amongst the highlights were the lake where you can fish, kayak, take in the sun or have a great moment around the fire ring, the nightly deer feeding just alongside the entry road and an additional patio for sunning or enjoying a peaceful retreat.
The camp itself is very small, but with that comes a lot of charm. They did mention that there is currently underway an expansion possibly on the waterfront for additional tent camping options to expand the single tent site now available. For those visiting in an RV there are several spaces available currently with substantial parking area for larger units in addition to the lake cabin featuring 3 bedrooms and an ample porch for outdoor entertaining.
The charm of the campground is definitely in the details from painted rocks around the patio area, the campground mascots hanging out at key places for interaction, the unique bathhouse created from a small horse trailer and equipped with rustic finishings and the deer corn and bird seed left for each camper so they can interact more with their surroundings. This is a place which uniquely unveils itself the more you explore.
I had seen photos of the location but did not fully know what to expect, and boy was I surprised at how different my visit was than other reviewers from the site. When I arrived the lake was almost to the top of the camp border retainer wall, unlike other photos which I had seen when there was little to no water to explore. Apparently the earlier in the season the more water usually you will find because later in the season the water is used for irrigation in surrounding areas and it becomes very low. Spring and early summer is the ideal time for lake related activities while late summer and fall are more about the discovery you can find along the banks and bed of the lake, which is more like hiking in my opinion.

Product Review:
As a Ranger for the Dyrt, in addition to having access to great campgrounds, I also am given the opportunity to try and review products and gear best suited for my active camping lifestyle. For my trip to Baulderdash I was able to prepare all my meals using the Primus Power Trail Backpacking Stove With Piezo.
I was a little worried I wouldn’t have the stove before my trip with only a couple of weeks between booking and estimated camping date, however from order to delivery there was less than a week’s time, arriving well before I departed for my trip. To be honest I didn’t want to try it out or anything until I arrived at my campsite so I could get a true feel for the size, the function and overall experience since this was my first Primus item.
**First Impression: **
The size seemed a good fit for what I was looking for. I have used a camping stove previously and knew I wanted something similar in size but also something which would address all my previous concerns with the other brand.
What Were My Previous Brand Concerns?:
With all these concerns, I decided to play it safe and make sure I had the instructions with me just in case. (Available in multiple languages) And while I did read them, I really didn’t have to because the stove was very user friendly when I actually started assembling it. (I would suggest a new user who has never used a backpacking stove to give it a quick once over)
I opted for this stove because of its 4 stove balancing points. My previous stove had only 3 and many times it made it difficult to balance when my surface was not entirely even or if my food was slightly shifted in my pan. The 4 points are pulled upward from their fold and locked into place tightly, giving another layer of security to me when using the stove and checking off one of my concerns.
The stove attaches to your propane bottle by screwing it onto the top. With this you want to have a firm hold because if it is not screwed on tight enough it will not start. You will quickly know if it isn’t on tight enough when you twist the piezo because you will not hear the gas flowing. I learned this on the second use when I was making my breakfast and I thought I had broken it by not putting it in my bag the same way it had been previously. Gave me a little panic, only to discover it was operator error not stove damage.
Having the piezo and igniter fully eliminated my frustrations which came from starting and lighting the previous stove, which I always felt was a bit dangerous because you would have to ignite it right at the source of the gas and many times it would intensely flair up. The Primus keeps you at a safe distance from the actual starting of the flame so check off another concern!
To cook on the stove I opted to really test its heating ability. I did so using chilled water, wanting to see just how long it actually would take to bring it to a rolling boil for use on a variety of common camping needs. Less than 10 minutes and my water was rolling and steaming maxing out temps high enough for pretty much anything I could ever need from creating an egg omelet in a sandwich bag, hydrating a meal, boiling water safe consumption or making piping hot water thermos for keeping warm in my tent on a cold night.
In my opinion, the timing was very good. In addition, though there was a bit of wind it seemed to continue burning consistently instead of all of the flames shifting to a single side. While I didn’t test the overall even cooking because I had only boiled water I can only assume from the other results that this also would be addressed and answered by the balancing and also even flame.
I hydrated a dehydrated meal for dinner, anyone who has done this before knows if the water isn’t warm enough it will not cook through and you will be eating pure crunchy starch. That meal turned out great! In the morning, I made my protein packed oatmeal with dehydrated fruits and a coffee. Layering the fruits on the bottom to allow them the most access to hydrating following with oats and protein powder I was able to with the Primus create a breakfast quality mirroring that of what I could have made with a full kitchen at home requiring a stove, chopping block and coffee maker, all with a single burner.

Made a reservation to camp here. Campground called me to ask a few questions about our camper. We own a Jeep Gladiator with an AluCab cabin camper. I was told that it is not RVIA certified camper so they would not allow us to camp there. There is NOTHING on their website about a RVIA certified unit. I had to google what that even was. The staff member that called couldn’t even tell me what it was or why it was required.
Guide
We spent 4 nights at Antler Oaks Lodge and it was quiet and relaxing. We enjoyed the pool and the river multiple times daily. It was hot but we managed to keep cool. There is a huge hall rec area that they have where they have games, couches, store and a library. There is a playscape, basketball and volleyball court. We have an RV but there are tons of cabins to rent as well. Our kids loved it and we have it on our list to go back to again one day.
TravelerThis was our second trip to this park. The river is beautiful, and the hill country backdrop is gorgeous. We stayed in a cabin this time, #16. It was comfortable and we liked our space. We were in walking distance of the park store and the river.
The hiking here is fantastic. Must of the hikes include elevation changes and rocky ground, so I would call them moderately difficult. There is one easy hike for those who prefer that. Trails are well marked and intersect, so you can choose your adventure.
There are some stores and restaurants in Leakey, Concan, and Uvalde if you need to get out, but the area is very rural. Many of the places in Concan and Leakey close early.
If you like a party atmosphere, go during the summer months. Keep in mind lines get long to get in, and the park may close to new entrants. We prefer to go right before memorial day or after labor day. It's still warm enough to enjoy the river, and we've had no problem finding a spot to relax.
One caveat (and the reason for knocking off a star), the water is the park is terrible. Do not expect to use water for cooking or drinking. We went thinking we'd use the water in the cabin but could hardly take a shower in it much less drink it. Otherwise, this park is amazing.
LegendThis quaint little RV park on the shores of the Llano River has a new name, Tree Cabins RV Resort, as they have little cabins around the perimeter in addition to RV spaces. It's a pretty low key place, especially during the off-season. The owners/managers are very responsive and helpful!
With just a few overnighters circling through the park, and a handful of seasonal residents this place served us well. Water, electricity, sewer, and strong-wifi were what we needed the weekend that we stayed as we needed to get some work done, do some online seminars, and there hadn't been much sun for our solar panel for about 4 days. Decent price for all of the amenities provided, too! And, we recharged before we left...always a plus!
While the many pull-through sites are a little stacked together, it’s not as close as some RV parks will push it. The bathroom amenities are very nice, clearly the work of someone whose been around the RV park world and wanted to rise above. The individual/ family bathrooms more closely resemble something you’d have in your house than in a campground. The facilities were very clean and well decorated, and the shower pressure/ temperature couldn’t be beat.
With a very short drive/walk to town for gas, groceries, etc. staying here makes a lot of sense, especially when the nearby Llano River State Park campground is full. The park offers lots of trails for hiking, biking, and birding.
GuideWe had a great time at 4J this past weekend. It was our first time staying at 4J, and I was impressed. I stayed in the Kyle cabin and the place was nice and clean. I wiped certain areas just to make sure and it was spotless. The beds are very comfortable, didn’t expect that. The front office employees were very nice. The common areas are really nice. 4J is right next to the Rio Frío, it’s very shallow, but it was perfect for our kids(8, 6, 1 year old). We really enjoyed our self. Forgot to take picture.
GuideThis park use to be a State Park, so you have the nice big sites and lots of hiking trails. The park is split up into two sides, with a Hwy that runs between them. The riverside of the park has a fishing dock and a beach area for swimming. They also rent kayaks and paddle boards. They also have a playground, Sand Volleyball area and a Butterfly garden. The RV sites do not have a river view, and the play ground and Volleyball is a pretty good walk. They do have mini cabins that are available right on the river with nice stairs down to the water.
Cabin camping near Mountain Home, Texas offers a perfect blend of nature and comfort, allowing visitors to enjoy the scenic beauty of the Hill Country while staying in cozy accommodations.
