Has endless trails to hike. Home like vibe and stay. Has a store and even dances in summer. Has a small laundry and rentals for water items. You can rv, cabin, or tent even!! Book ahead, most often booked out!!
Traveler
Went on a day pass. Drove by the cabins and they looked cute. Perfect place to put a kayak in. Lots of shallow water in parts though. It was pretty crowded with quite a bit of music playing. Bathrooms were old and run down but worked, shower had little pressure. Better for rinsing off. I enjoyed the view and the fishing.
Traveler
Had a blast here can't wait to go back... Wife and I spent the night check things out and definitely bringing the kids/ family, everyone here was so helpful and friendly.

We have been coming to Neal’s for years, but have always stayed in their cabins. We had a change of plans for a trip (thank you Hurricane Beryl) and were lucky enough to get in at Neal’s. Had an amazing time, and changed our upcoming cabin reservation to an RV site!
Guide
We’ve been coming to Garner for over 25 years. Tent camped, stayed in the screened shelters, and recently RVed, but this is the first time I’ve stayed in this camp ground. I like that it is in “Old Garner”, so it is close to more of the trails, the main swimming area, the store, etc. but it is far enough away to be free of the noise and other activities that go with Old Garner. I’ve stayed in Okd Garner in the winter because it isn’t so busy and things are more chill (pardon the pun) but stayed in New Garner in the Summer to avoid the noise. Here I get the best of both - and this site has Full Hookups (look for the Pull thrus, as not all have full hookups). In short, this can’t be beat. I’m the only draw back is the sites are narrower (at least the pull thrus are) and the picnic tables are not covered. Not enough to even shave a little off the 5th Star, but that is my only complaint.

We visited in the off season and the place was pretty empty. The only service is AT&T. Great hiking and nice river views.
Guide
Stayed for two November nights in the Live Oak campsite (site 328). Park was very well maintained. Bathrooms were clean albeit the one in Live Oak had no hot water. Not a big issue as the adjacent site bathroom was just as close for us. For our 22ft trailer the space was adequate, but would have been tight for a longer rig. A lot of the spaces at the various camping areas looked somewhat short, but for us it wasn’t an issue. Most sites seemed to have good shade and the trees provided nice privacy. All in all it was very peaceful, hiking trails were excellent, and the scenery is awesome.

We had a friends and family reunion of sorts here at the campgrounds for 5 days and it was the most amazing experience of our trip! We stayed in one of the cabins, a tiny home and utilized on RV hookup as well! So we got a picture of pretty much everything they offer. It was PERFECT to say the least! Water pressure was great! I have super thick hair and worry about being able to wash it thoroughly, but their bathrooms were just right! The AC's kept the cabin the perfect temperature for the hotter times of the day and at night or early mornings, you kept toasty warm. The grounds themselves were huge and you can set up a volleyball net as well as barbecue. If you wanted to lounge with other guests, you could in the common areas, or you can stick to yourselves as well, the place was so huge. The water was clear and cool and so very inviting! My son did cannon bombs of the cliff jump! Do not recommend that though:/... the women brought our inner tubes and laid out with our drinks soaking in the warm sun. Brandon and Sachi were the perfect hosts and I definitely plan on coming back year after year to experience this treasured place. Mahalo!
ScoutWe spent a wonderful time at this campground. The cabins and facilities are clean and cozy. The river was so relaxing and clean. Nice little town, too! Highly recommended and hope to return again soon!
Guide
Quiet, small park without showers or bathrooms. Most residents are long term. Gravel roads/pads well graded. Internet is spotty at best. First night I watched football and movie with minor buffering, next day and night I couldn't get service. Ok if you're in a pinch but that's about it.
Guide
Garner has pretty much anything you could need onsite. There’s a general store, restrooms, and plenty of trails for hiking, biking, or just exploring. It gets busy during holidays so expect neighbors and families with kids.
RangerCamp host made sure to wake us up the first thing that morning about our lack of hangtag . We were just staying the night while traveling .There were none at the gate and the office was closed . Dumpsters very 100’ along the campground roads . I bet this place is a zoo in the summer . Decent showers and the gift shop / store was nice as was the lady running it . Not sure I would return because of the rude state park staff though .. to bad , nice access to the river ..
Scoutalways love this park. Toobing on the river, hiking up the trails, the crystal cave, the overlook, and mount baldy too bot! Large campsites are very well tended, and park employees are so friendly. Love this place, which is why it is so very popular. Make your reservations early!
Guidethe balance of sun and shade is perfect!
Guide
PROS. The park is a must during autumn. The leaves change color and great weather. Wonderful hiking trails.
CONS. Park ranger(lady) was very rudely and racist towards us made the trip to be okay. I hope others don’t get the same treatment.
Lastly, I will say it’s a beautiful park go and enjoy.
TravelerNestled under mature oak trees in a quiet spot away from the highway and just a short, gentle hike to the beautiful water of the Frio River, Camp Cold Springs is a hidden gem of a site! Lots of shade and super easy access to the crystal clear water of the Frio lined with huge picturesque cypress trees and a fishing pond. My kids (5 & 7) loved climbing around on the rocks and playing in the shallow spots of the river where the water slowly drifts by. Great spot to relax with the family and enjoy nature.
Guide
Loved site 6 was spacious and really close to the river. Enjoyed how shallow and deep this part of river can be, definitely a great spot if Garner is full. The restroom were not the greatest but have no complains it has a toilets and showers.
Guide
The tent area is well shaded, water at each site and power by the bath house. Bath house is concrete floors but the water is hot and the facilities sufficient. Love the live oaks and the manager John is a great guy.
ScoutThis park is under new ownership and they are extremely nice! They have also made several park improvements!
Scout
The new owners are great as well as the park improvements!
GuideThe area is in a small valley so the spots are cramped together. The park itself, is beautiful. I was here on a Spring break night, so it was very busy. I’m not sure if I should complain about the following since it’s not the park’s fault. My neighbor kept using my electrical outlets (and water). This wouldn’t be a problem if I didn’t need to use it myself. I tried to ask them, but they didn’t speak English. I know they are not mine, but it’s aggravating. The park host was not answering their door. Then, later, they started their charcoal with diesel fuel which was right next to my truck RV window. This was the charcoal they used for cooking! SMH. There is no cell signal, there is wifi right at the visitor center.
ScoutI've camped at Frio River at least 20 times over the past 10 years the last time was just recently with the covid it was great big rocks little rocks Sandy area there are several places where you can throw down a tent so just bring your imagination
