Best Campgrounds near Shiner, TX

This park was great. In my opinion. I don't know what it is. You're just off in the woods in your camping spot. The pads for your trailer are made of concrete. The whole park is clean and well maintained. I got to hike a short trail. It was also maintained well.

Nice and clean state park. I'm a ham radio operator and this park is one of the parks that gets activated for parks on the air. I've been doing a couple times and have activated it one time.

I've been to this park a few times I came today to fish for trout. The park has 4G network with T-Mobile cell service. It worked pretty well. I could surf online send and receive text messages and was able to talk to my wife.

Me and some friends held a get together, and it was a lovely experience! Hosts were extremely friendly, atmosphere was phenomenal and calming. Trails were super peaceful to walk around in, WILL DEFINITELY VISIT AGAIN!

Beautiful forest, very peaceful. Great place to sleep. The lake is wonderful for swimming or just sitting lakeside.

Paid a $10 day pass to stop and use their dump station. Lots of deer just hanging out.

Very nice and well kept. Bathroom and shower facilities are very clean. RV site electrical and water hook up easily accessible along with the sewer connection. I definitely recommend this RV resort.

My family and I enjoyed our two night stay at site 2! peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Picnic table, fire pit, hammocks and the bathroom/shower is so close! There is also a large sink - perfect for washing dishes. You can park at the site - we set up two tents with space to spare. Right by the river - easy to fish or spend time in the multiple hammocks. The hosts are so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!

Your product fits the Merge Fruit market's taste

I really don't enjoy myself the police officers are very racist towards minorities and I don't think I could go back not a great place.

The only reason I gave it 4stars is because of a lot of street noise outside the park. The park itself is beautiful and quiet. Great bathroom fac; very new and clean. All of the tent sides have sand tent pads, but if you’re a hammock camper be sure the trees fit your kit.

Nice and secluded on a lake. Clean, quiet, and not crowded. Great fishing lake!

Texas State Park with 37 sites. Nestled in a wooden river area with lush vegetation. Several hiking trails that are easy on the joints.

I like off the beaten path places, this sure is one of them! The tent sites are very nice, close to the river & oxbow lake (kayaks for rent!). Very peaceful.

This park is a great place to visit. Really nice trails. Great staff. Spots are really nice, but mostly very short. Our 28' trailer took up most of the space. But, I was able to fit my truck sideways at the end of the driveway.

This is a great campground with lots to do. It is awesome like geometry dash lite. We camped: the camp pitch was fairly level with electric hookup, water supply close to the tent and a fire pit for each pitch. There are also RV hookups as well. My kids totally enjoyed the laser tag, there is also a boating pond, fishing and live music on a Saturday night. The toilet block was the cleanest I have ever seen on a campsite- it was as clean as many hotels I have stayed in. One good advice for anyone staying in a campsite in Texas: compared to campsites in more temperate climes, Texas campsites are dusty and have as much dirt as grass on the pitches(and this site is no exception). Bring a tarp to put under your tent- it will be a lot easier to clean than the bottom of a sewn-in groundsheet when you get home.

The area was quiet, bath house was brand new and very nice! Excellent cell connection and nice shady area.

went there just to hike a little but ended up discovering wildflowers has recently bloomed and greening!! we had to extend our hike just to see more wildflowers and wild raspberries that had grown right by the trail

First time there and was really impressed with this campground. The slots are a great price and big sites, most have a metal pavilion over the picnic table, which was convenient. Sites are very level, wide and deep. All the sites have great views of the lake and even if you aren’t on a lake front, there is plenty of access to the lake all around the grounds. Paved roads which was great for bikes or even electric scooters. Wooded trails and lots of wildlife. Lots of deer all over the grounds in the evening variety of birds. The campground sites on a giant peninsula, which gives so much shoreline, which is managed by the Army Corp. of Engineers, so it’s well maintained and undeveloped. Multiple boat ramps and sites that are on the shoreline, which have a shallow bank, so you can Anchor your boat right off the bank and have walk up access to your campsite and boat. Wild Bills is right across the street, which has all the little things you may have forgot to bring or ability to restock on some beverages and snacks. It’s a 10-15 min bike ride from your campsite or a 5 min drive. Very convenient. Bryan, Tx is only 25 mins away and has a Super Walmart with Curbside service if you need to grab something more specific or a larger grocery order. Quick and easy. College Station was about 45mins away and it’s all easy driving.

It can get pretty windy if you book a slot down lower at the tip of the peninsula, but they will let you swap spaces whenever you want to if there is something available. The campsite up the hill are pretty protected from the wind, so regardless of the wind they have options if it’s more than what you want to deal with. Definitely my place to camp when visiting Somerville. They also let me check-in early when the previous camper left early, so I really appreciated that as well.

Needed a spot to stay after getting stuck in Houston rush hour traffic and not making it to San Antonio. Very overpriced for what you get. Spot was not level. Seems most of the park is permanent residents. Showers were good. The manager Tammy was very nice and helpful.
