Per website
ScoutA nice place with many facilities. Good Wi-Fi, ro-exec download and mobile service(Verizon). The office women are very pleasant!
ScoutThe area featured trees on the opposite side and was a larger Bloxstrap premium location. It was really easy to pull in, park, and set up. The toilets were handy, and the neighborhood is rather calm.
GuideI passed off about 75 feet between sites. Most have views of the lake. At the moment the water level is very low and facilities near this campground are high and dry.
Scout
Beautiful scenery and easy access to the river. Roads are very rough though so make sure you have a high clearance vehicle.

Stayed here as part of my son’s birthday, and had a great time. Stunned at all the activities and the people were all super helpful. Can’t wait to come back!
TravelerI recently stayed at Blazing Star Luxury RV Resort and was thoroughly impressed. The resort itself is beautifully maintained, with Buckshot Roulette spacious, well-maintained RV sites and stunning Texas Hill Country views.

Stayed here in October and did cold plunges and it was so lovely! Beautiful hikes and sunsets!
TravelerI went with a extremely rowdy group of individuals and it appeared that the attendants of camp Hueco are very patient people. They were very good at explaining what the expectations were for camping on the property and the expectations were for the others in the immediate area. Also please don't bring your mini bike!

We stayed here in the middle of June in site 20 & 21. It was hooooot but the pool was nice, and the river was cold. It was hard to tote all of our stuff down the to the river and back up when we were done, so we will likely go somewhere else for river time next time. My only desire is that they would make one of the three pools adult only.
LegendPrimitive camped here a few nights. Great staff and clean. Walking distance to river and other activities. Short walk to restrooms and showers. Water and power available on both sites.

This was the perfect getaway for a last minute weekend trip. We arrived after dark, but Reza was so helpful in making sure we had everything we needed as we set up at the tent site. We really appreciated the little extras: reclining chairs at the tent site and also at the fire pit, the flush toilet and the outdoor shower, a picnic table and firewood was also available. Both Dot and Reza were so pleasant and very accommodating to our needs. They were readily accessible without being intrusive. We definitely had our privacy but knew they were just a phone call away. We cannot wait to come back and reconnect with nature. The stars are abundant and the vibe is so amazing, we felt completely recharged. We're so happy we found this gem!!
ScoutWide open spaces Beautiful, open pasture with thoughtful campsite touches! Dot's spot was one of our favorite sites in Texas! Sweeping views, beautiful trees, lovely facilities and friendly hosts. Thank you for a wonderful stay! We'll be back!
ScoutWe could not have found a better place. From the moment we arrived we were treated like we knew them forever. We had a welcome bucket at the site. It had first aid kit, water, citronella candle, bug spray etc. The RV sites and tent sites are exceptionally clean. The view is breath taking, the stars at night are romance and enticing. We saw deer, wild turkey, longhorns, humming birds. We got a tour of the property and it was so perfect. You are positioned perfectly to visit San Marcos, New Braunfles, Drippings Springs, Wimberly, Blanco, Canyon Lake and Krause. Gruene. It was perfect
ScoutWe LOVE this park! Recommend it to everyone!
ScoutDisclaimer: I am biased towards COE campgrounds. Cheap, ample grass, trees, water, blue sky and stars at night. Usually a paved pad, reliable utilities, picnic table, fire ring, grill, friendly volunteers. Did I mention cheap? With a National Park Pass you get 50% off so nightly rate is usually $11-15 range. How can you go wrong. Almost always good site spacing, 20-30 feet. Almost always well maintained. Waaayy closer to camping than commercial RV parks.
Cranes Mill is 4 of 5 on COE scale, paved pads, pretty level. Good spacing, generally 25-30 feet. Hooded picnic table with usual fire ring, grill. Excellent bath houses. Canyon Lake was low when I was there (Nov,'22) but still fishing and boating activity. Small towns/shops <5miles, major shopping 15 miles. I'm going back in Feb'22 for another stay.
Good cell coverage - Verizon, 3bars LTE, 10+mb down, ATT 3bars LTE 10+mb down. I work remote so this is important. No issues in my ten day stay.

Lockhart State Park
So first the best, in my opinion, thing about Lockhart SP; it’s a few miles from Lockhart City where there is some DELICIOUS food!! Smitty’s is my favorite! I will actually travel HOURS off my driving route to stop by!
So…back to the Lockhart State Park. If you golf you will love Lockhart. Don’t get me wrong there are a few trails and historical CCC things to explore, but it seemed to me the golf was the main focus. There’s also a cement pond to relax around. The campground was adequate, roofed picnic areas and grills at each site. Not much in the way of shade. On the up side you won’t get lost in the camping area. The showerhouse was well maintained and small. The staff , the ones I met, were also adequate.
Did I mention the nearby EXCELLENT food?

My family and I all visited Son’s Guadalupe in August for a quick getaway. I grew up camping, tubing and swimming in the Guadalupe growing up so I wanted to share that experience with my three sons but being from the area I also know how river rd can be rowdy at times in the summer. I was happy to find out Son’s recently opened up a place out there as we had visited a couple of their other locations and they had been very family friendly. We rented a cabana for the day as well as an air-conditioned glamping tent to stay overnight. We had such a great time! The cabanas sit right on the bank of the river and have everything you need including: seating, picnic table, BBQ pit electricity and water. The river is a bit shallow at their location for swimming (much of the Guadalupe is) but it the perfect depth to get in relax and cool off. This section of the Guadalupe River is very clear and flows great for tubing. We rented some tubes and they took us up river a couple of miles to float back down to our cabana which was very convenient. The scenery on the tubing trip is absolutely gorgeous, huge cliffs and cypress trees! After a fun day it was nice to relax in a comfortable tent with AC! The mattresses were foam and very comfortable. You do have to bring your own pillows, sheets and blankets though. For bathrooms, they have 5 individual bathrooms up top with showers. Overall we had a great time and I’d recommend the place. It can get a bit crowded on weekends so go during the week if you’re not wanting to be around crowds. Also, they rent everything a-la-carte, so if you plan to stay the night you need to tent a cabana or covered picnic table during the day. There website does a good job explaining everything but it’s a bit different if you haven’t been before so be sure to read through your reservation before heading out.
TravelerWe’ve stayed here 3 times now and each experience has been amazing! It’s quiet, lots of things for the kids to do like swimming, miniature golf, basketball, tennis, etc. The views are really pretty since the RV park is down in a valley. Sites are relatively level & gravel.
ScoutNice place with tons of amenities. Good Wi-Fi and cell service (Verizon). The office ladies are really nice! The only thing that took caught us off guard were the military planes flying overhead, but it only lasted for an hour but it was loud.
The spot had trees one side and was a larger premium site. Was very easy to pull in and get parked and set up. The bathrooms were close and the community is pretty quiet.

We traveled to the canyon lake area on Labor Day weekend 2022. The campground was extremely clean and friendly! The shuttle service to Whitewater Amphitheater was awesome. Staff was great. Will be staying here again for sure!
TravelerQuiet, nice park for TX. Downtown Lockhart is very close with great food and wine.
TravelerCheap ice for sale at the office, nice park with pretty sites. No complaints
