Best Cabin Camping near Shavano Park, TX

Several campgrounds within driving distance of Shavano Park, Texas provide furnished cabin rentals with varying amenities. Blazing Star Luxury RV Resort in San Antonio offers air-conditioned cabins with full electrical hookups, while Boulderdash Cabin & RV Park in Bandera features lakeside cabins with private porches. Most cabins include essential furnishings such as beds, tables, and climate control systems. At Thousand Trails Medina Lake, cabins come equipped with electricity and water hookups, with some offering kitchenettes. "Our glamping cabin was nice, it was well worth the money to not have to set up a tent. Plus the AC kept us very cold and comfortable at night and the kitchenette had everything we needed to cook and make meals," notes one visitor to Son's River Ranch.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available throughout the region, with options ranging from basic one-room structures to multi-bedroom family accommodations. Kerrville-Schreiner Park offers vintage cabin rentals alongside more modern options, while Canyon Lake Military Recreation Area provides loft cabins specifically for military families. Many properties maintain pet-friendly cabin policies, though restrictions vary by location. According to one visitor at Canyon Lake, "We love staying in the loft cabins. Some are pet friendly." Most cabin rentals require advance reservations, particularly during summer months when waterfront properties experience peak demand. Discounts are sometimes available through Good Sam Club, military benefits, or extended-stay arrangements.

Most cabin rentals provide basic furniture but require guests to bring their own linens, towels, and personal items. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between properties, from basic microwaves to full kitchenettes with refrigerators and stovetops. Visitors staying at cabins should check specific amenities before arrival, as cooking equipment and utensils are inconsistently provided. On-site stores at locations like Travelers World RV Resort stock essential supplies, though prices tend to be higher than at grocery stores in nearby towns. For extended stays, the larger supermarkets in San Antonio offer more comprehensive shopping options within a reasonable drive from most cabin camping locations.

    Son’s Blue River Camp

    Our Family loves Son’s River Camp!

    We stayed in one of their air-conditioned glamping cabins. It was very nice and clean and the AC stayed very cold. They have private, lockable, full bathrooms right behind the cabins. The place is very pretty and the staff friendly. We loved tubing and kayaking the San Marcos River! It’s a great getaway!

    Son’s Geronimo

    Great family experience!

    We had a fantastic time at Son’s Geronimo! Their glamping cabins are super nice and had everything we needed including AC, WiFi, full kitchen, fire pits, hammocks etc. We have a family of 6 and the setup was perfect: 2 queen beds and 2 twin beds. The property itself pretty large and has a lot of creek frontage. We kayaked, paddle paddle boarded, swam, fished and more! They also have lots of amenities: 2 pools, 2 hot tubs, volleyball court, basketball court, game room, horseshoe pits and more. We will definitely be back!

    Canyon Lake Military - Randolph AFB

    We love it here. Not for everyone.

    We started with day passes, then graduated to renting out the loft cabins, then tried tent camping, and eventually and recently parked our travel trailer in the reservable RV spaces. All in the same vicinity. Made great memories at each stay.

    Pro’s: Best rate in town for military (active, retired, $ disabled). Water is beautiful. Fishing can be fantastic. Lots of water activities available for rent or bring your own. Pet friendly, Great for families, most people are very respectful and wonderful to talk to. Good food and stores nearby. Lots of wildlife. Quiet. Close to town and short drive from San Antonio.

    Cons: Hard to get ahold of staff to make reservations. Market is extremely expensive and staff isn’t very friendly. Lost and lots of fire ants.

    We recommend it to all of our friends and family and bring them often. We love staying in the loft cabins. Some are pet friendly. We have stayed in the mobile homes on the other side of the lake once but that was not a great experience as our things were stolen off our table and covered patio (on Veterans Day) and they were only left unattended for 15 min or less. The mobile home wasn’t very nice but functional at least.

    Bandera Crossing Riverfront RV Park

    Fairly New Park, More Amenities Coming Soon

    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. 

    Check In: 3p Check Out: 12 p 

    Length of Stay: 3 Nights

    💲 Cost per night $59 (price will be $75/night for Mardi Gras weekend 2023)

    Discounts: Good Sam 10%

    📝 Site#38 Notes:

    • Water
    • Max amp: 50 Sewer
    • Wifi
    • Site Pad: level, gravel, long (it was a back-in site, but it's been upgraded and is super long pull-through)
    • Utilities were close to the front. Parked camper and pulled the truck behind it instead
    • Close to neighbors, but room enough for tables and such (if you brought them)
    • No privacy between sites

    👍🏻 Pros:

    • Overflow parking nearby if needed
    • Close to the river
    • Big area to walk dogs or kids to play by the river (watch for sticker burrs in some areas)

    👎🏻 Cons:

    • Front row closest to the road- a little road noise
    • No tables, fire rings or grills at campsites
    • No shade trees
    • No wind brake

    📝 Park Notes:

    • River access - but it's pretty low right now. Won't be kayaking or even tubing anytime soon
    • Some deer in the park
    • Cabins
    • Some large fire rings on the outskirts of park, but not at sites
    • 3 miles into Bandera - close but nice to get away during big event weekends
    • There was a food truck on site, but it wasn't open this weekend

    In process of being built:

    • Great Lodge (should be ready by March) - Office, Store, Restrooms/Showers
    • Zipline
    • Yurts
    • Amphitheater
    • Pool/Hot Tub

    Son’s Island

    A tropical oasis right here in Texas!

    Son’s Island is awesome! What a great experience we had. We stayed in one of their glamping tents. It had 2 queen beds and a twin bed but the best part is it had air-conditioning and it stayed very comfortable. You get to use the cabanas for free at night from 7:30 PM - 10:00 am when you rent a tent but you must also rent a cabana for the day if you plan to stay. It is well worth the money. Each cabana comes with its own private dock, lots of comfortable seating, electricity, water, BBQ pit, picnic table and hammock. We heard lots of people rave about this place. It definitely surpassed our expectations!

    Summit Vacation Resort

    Texas Camping at its finest

    We loved the quiet and peace of this RV Resort nestled in Texas Hill Country.

    The Park: they have a large pool area with cafe and snacks. The property is large and spaces are spread out through out the park. The big draw is the Guadalupe River, Canyon Lake, and the woods and hills.

    They have hot shoes, bath houses, laundry.

    The sites: Gravel and mostly level, very few sites were unlevel. You’re surrounded by hills so it is nice and quiet. They are full hook up sites. Each site had a fire ring and picnic table. Small deer herds would move through the park each evening. Many of the campers feed them corn and they know the sounds and come running out of the hills.

    The campground is near grocery and hardware stores. Within an hour are several bigger towns with more stores.

    Cellular: T-Mobile was decent but not great. They do have Campground WiFi that worked faster.

    Landa RV Park & Campground

    The Landa RV Campground + The Comal River + Floating + Fishing = Good Times

    During the summer, Texans flock to the rivers and lakes to enjoy the outdoors and keep cool. Near the town of New Braunfels there are a number of RV parks and campgrounds that can accommodate just about any need.

    In the town of New Braunfels there is an HEB grocery store and Buc-ee's gas station to stock up on any supplies. If you've never stopped at a Buc-ee's gas station you should. Buc-ee's is a mega gas station, convenience store and road side attraction all in one. Their bathrooms are always super clean.

    I was on a little fishing trip and decided to check out a few campgrounds in the area.

    Landa RV park is a solid choice. The staff are super friendly and while it is a small campground, they offer nice amenities. At the entrance of the park there’s a admission office and small store. All the campsites have drive-up parking spaces, electricity, water and the picnic tables. There are some campsites that are located right along the river. I think site #506 is one of the best sties. There is a little premium on the price, but it is well worth it for quick access to the river. RVs are allowed to park at the camping sites along the river. However, there is also a designated RV lot with complete hook ups. There is a community space with some picnic tables. The restroom facilities are located near the RV lot. The facilities are modern and clean with flush toilets and shower stalls. They even have a laundry room on site. Next to the campground there are facilities to rent tubes if you want to float down the river. I actually came to this area to fly fish and I caught a number of small panfish. There are also bass and trout in the river.

    Whether your visiting to fish, float or just relax this campground is a relaxing place to visit.
