"Medina Lake Thousand Trails RV Park is an awesome campground with large sites and lot of nature! There are trees and shade and it is along Medina Lake shores."
"Not far from San Antonio."
GuideQuiet, 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.
ScoutI stayed in an RV spot with my SUV camper. There are lots of trees and wildlife around. A herd of deer visited my camp in the early morning. There is some distant road noise but it is more of a white noise. The roosters in the distance at sunrise was cute! I didn't make the cave tour but hope to during a future visit. Staff was very friendly. Site 17 is off the beaten path from the others, recommend.
GuideClean 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.
ScoutClean campground, laundry facilities available. Close enough to everything in San Antonio. Can’t beat the prices. Must be rated veteran to get on base.

GuideCamp Landa has everything we needed and more. We loved the pool in the heat!
ScoutGreat campground with resort amenities
GuideMy 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.
TravelerWe have stayed at Pecan Park several times, we love the river being so close and drop our tubes in upstream and float down. Then we chill in our chairs in the water by the shore in the shade, as do many people from the park, and watch the tubers come down. During the day it gets super busy on the river, which is entertaining!
