"It is August in Texas, very hot, we have to have shade and water to camp. This has it all. Our site had lovely cottonwood trees and right on the small branch of the river."
"Lots of lovely giant cypress trees and lots of places to walk our dogs and enjoy the scenery and the river."
$27 - $45 / night
"This park was close to a local event we wanted to attend, and we were very happy with it and will definitely go back."
"We stayed in the Fox Run Loop towards the back of the park away from the highway and it was nice and quiet. The showers and restrooms were decent, again reflecting other Texas SP facilities."
".
- Super large dog park, if you have dogs (we have a cat).
Cons:
- A little on the spendy side, but proximity to San Antonio and Fredericksburg, as well as amenities, are likely reasons."
"Close to the highway but couldn’t hear any traffic at our sight. We were behind the office overlooking the gazebo. Beautiful landscaping! Would like to have seen more planned events."
"Great in Texas in October, water slides still operate on saturdays, and with all the structured activities crowds stay small, even in the same areas."
"There is so much to do, from the water park (which is awesome), to the Guadalupe River, to the karaoke at the bar, the booze cruise around the park, the play grounds, candy bar bingo, movie night, ect."
"enjoyed stopping here on our way home, even got to see our only fireflies of the entire trip at this campsite. really appreciated the price and dog friendly policy."
"About 2 miles off the highway so pretty quiet. They have a little gas station there too."
$45 - $250 / night
"Very close to other RVs. Nice owner, very pleased with that."
$10 / night
"Close to the river. Nice spaces with covered tables and scattered trees. Hiking, pet friendly. Showers were clean and well kept. No sewer hook up but dump station is right off the road."
"Lost Maples State Natural Area has some beautiful hiking trails and backpacking areas."
"If you have pets getting a back-in site may give you more room to let them move around if tethered to your camper during some outside time."
"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."
"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!"
ScoutThe RV sites are spacious, and the grounds are spaced out nicely. The river access is nice. There are a few drawbacks. There's isn't a dog park for pets to safely let out energy without tons of wildlife poo (it was EVERYWHERE). Disposing of dog waste was a challenge. There are only two bins on the opposite side of the grounds from the RV sites. One by the playground and the other by the river, additionally were no guest accessible dumpsters, and they don't tell you to put your trash by the curb. To have pets, it is $2.50 for each pet per night. Also, a second vehicle parked at a lot is an additional $10 per night, and the credit card fee is ~$10. They will also charge $50 for violating the pet policy. The site price range has gone up from $45-$75 to $55-$91(and that's still off-season pricing). This place is very nice, but they aren't pet friendly, and the hidden fees are ridiculous.
ScoutWe 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.
GuideWe stayed one night, but we plan to come back and stay a week later this year.
Pros:
Cons:
A little on the spendy side, but proximity to San Antonio and Fredericksburg, as well as amenities, are likely reasons.
Wifi was spotty, but it is also not guaranteed. If Internet is important, bring a hotspot or use cel phone.
ScoutThe BEST hidden secret for camping in Texas. I mean wonderful camping privacy. Can’t beat the friendly Christian atmosphere
ScoutStayed there 3 nights during our visit to the Texas Hill Country. The park is 5 minutes from Fredericksburg. The pads are gravel with full hookups. Very clean laundry facility. There is a central area with dog park and place to walk. The reason for the 4 rating is that our site was at the top of the park with a downward slope which made it very difficult to level. Fredericksburg is a must see and so are the wineries. And great restaurants too. If in the area, we would definitely return to this park.
TravelerCamp spot was nice. area was taken care of and clean. Both my dogs loved the "off the leash" dog park. Close to town and not to far from the Enchanted rock. Also another good site to see is the old tunnel. Stayed during Christmas so the town was decorated very nicely. Will definitely come back again.
GuideThis site seems to be ran by the city. It's very well kept, clean, quiet and spacious.
I read mixed reviews about spacing but found it was no issue being low season.
We took someone else's recommendation on here and reserved a spot by the dog park. We had spot 84. Those are all pull through spots and face the dog park and airport.
Personally, we loved watching all the dogs play and the planes coming and going. It was far enough away to watch without being annoyingly loud.
We were minutes from Das Peach House, Dietz Distellry, downtown, and HEB.
ScoutWe found this park as we were traveling and they were very helpful over the phone. Great staff and friendly! All sights are concrete and very clean and beautiful park. Close to the highway but couldn’t hear any traffic at our sight. We were behind the office overlooking the gazebo. Beautiful landscaping! Would like to have seen more planned events. There is a creek to fish in and a great dog park. There is an adult section at back but limited on fifth wheel sights there. It was evident that it was originally for coaches. Great little store at office was fun. We had to move towards end of stay to the sight next to us, as someone had reserved the sight we were in. Overall our stay was good! Cell phone use: Verizon had one bar and AT&T had all four. We have both carriers and we’re able to just use AT&T until you leave and get across the highway then Verizon works.
GuideSites are close together, gravel, and not all are level. There are also extreme amounts of painful grass burrs in the lower camp area. But there’s also a beautiful dog park, butterfly garden, rustling trees, wide roads for waking, and the staff were pleasant and helpful. Very convenient short drive to downtown Fredericksburg and many wineries. It’s also fun to watch the airplanes at the nearby airport. Family and dog friendly. We would go back.
