Kerrville-Schreiner Park

Park is city run and split into two sections by a highway. Beautiful butterfly and nature garden, kid playground, camping and river access on one side. The other has hiking and biking trails along with camping. Multiple cabins and group camping areas on both sides.

Simple, quiet park

We had a great time during the day.  Beautiful park next to the river.  We were given a spot that was right next to the highway and was very loud.  in the evening we could barely sit out next to the camp fire because the cars were so loud.

Beautiful park- Loud highway

Don't be fooled, this city park originated as a State park and has all the amenities!

We stayed in the Fox Run Loop towards the back of the park away from the highway and it was nice and quiet. The showers and restrooms were decent, again reflecting other Texas SP facilities.

The trails varied in terrain and were well maintained as were the rest of the grounds. We didn't check out the river side of the park, however this June we are returning to and will be on the river side and will provide an update afterwards.

UPDATE:

Just got back from a weekend trip on the river side. Like the other reviews stated, it was a bit louder being so close to the highway. Additionally, there are street lamps by the ranger station that illuminate the tent sites which were annoying. It was nice however to be within short walking distance of the river, but if I were to go again, I'd stay on the other side of the park like my first time.

Don't be fooled...

We We stay down by the river. The road was real close to the site that we stayed in period over all the camp grounds are nice well maintained and not stacked on top of each other. Went for a walk and ride on the upper side of the park in that area is much quieter and much more comfortable feeling. We will go back and stay on the upper hillside.

Nice place only drawback is noise

I’m not sure what part we stayed in but I know it was very windy and cold but we were there in March and it was the only place to camp... We had a place to lay our head take a shower and cook dinner so it worked.  It was very windy so we had to use the picnic tables to block our tent which worked out well.

Windy...

We were I. Town visiting family and stayed on the river side - sit 201. Didn’t get a chance to explore the other side. It was quiet aside from Bandera Rd. noice. It is noticeable, though it didn’t bother us for the short time we were there. Camp sites are spread out but not very private. We chose this side to be near the river. Good fishing spots. The swim/floating area is a bit deep in parts. I wouldn’t want to take little kids swimming there without a life jacket. Definitely bring some tubes (or you can rent). On a Tuesday afternoon the swimming area was very quiet and it was easy to stay distanced from others. I wouldn’t say this is a destination park but it’s perfectly fine place for home base if you’re visiting the area. And it has some nice bonuses for the price: pull through sites and campsite sewage. Also, cabin 6 had two unique features: rope swing and waterside stone picnic table tucked away.

Nice stay

I stayed 3 days here Tent camping nice and quite in the back area lot # 62 fawn hideaway 

Peaceful and comfy 

I camped on the hill side in the Fox Run Loop. The campsites were pretty well spaced apart, but a lantern from from an adjacent campsite was able to shine into ours late at night. 

  

Overall, the sites are well maintained, and the bathrooms are very clean and well kept. It's near the Guadalupe river as well as other Hill Country attractions which makes this a good location. 

  

Remember to check in at the Ranger station over on the river side because you will need a gate code to access the hill side of the park.

A Nice Area

Kerrville park has great in town trails. Guadalupe River access&amp; nice warm showers in the restrooms. 

Hiking with are good friend Amy..

This is an X-State Park that the City of Kerrville assumed operation in 2004. Very popular, nice park, but it’s really beginning to show its heavy use. Bandera Highway splits this park with check-in on the Guadalupe riverside of Bandera Highway. FHU sites in Deer Field Loop, which require a gate access code for access, are a good distance from the next site, with the site across the road are closer. Asphalt parking pad fairly level. Wooden picnic table, metal fire pit with cooking grate. Utility hook-ups in good condition at our campsite. The picnic table is at least 50 feet from the camper parking pad, which is chained to the concrete pad it sits on. Noise from Highway 173 and the approach pattern for the Kerrville Municipal Airport, so lots of low flying aircraft. Otherwise, campers were quiet and respectful. Deer came very close to us while sitting at the fire pit. Toilet/shower facility clean; women had 2 sinks, 2 toilets and 3 showers. There are two washers and two dryers on the backside of the Deer Field Loop toilet/shower facility, but the washer lids were ripped off, but lying there. Easy day trips to Hill Country towns from this park to include Fredericksburg, Austin, New Braunfels and San Antonio. In Kerrville, don’t miss Grape Juice Restaurant, brand new HEB open November 2020, Belks and Gibson’s Store.  Camp Verde General Store and Restaurant is only a 20-minute drive.

X-Texas State Park Operated by City of Kerrville

This park was close to a local event we wanted to attend, and we were very happy with it and will definitely go back. The first row is all pull through sites with full hookups, although we do have a shorter trailer (24’) and I’m not sure how much luck you would have with a truly big one. Most sites had a stone or wood picnic table, shady trees, and a fire ring. We saw a deer, squirrels, and even a herd of blackbuck antelope. Our particular site was number 121 and it had a feral cat shelter, which we saw several of the cats and one caretaker stop by. There are hiking trails and the park itself is minutes from many nearby attractions. My husband checked out the camp bathrooms for me for this review and he said they were smaller but clean and acceptable.

Overall a comfortable little park, sites not overcrowded together, and reasonably priced. Good job Kerrville. 

Good family friendly park

This park use to be a State Park, so you have the nice big sites and lots of hiking trails. The park is split up into two sides, with a Hwy that runs between them. The riverside of the park has a fishing dock and a beach area for swimming. They also rent kayaks and paddle boards. They also have a playground, Sand Volleyball area and a Butterfly garden. The RV sites do not have a river view, and the play ground and Volleyball is a pretty good walk. They do have mini cabins that are available right on the river with nice stairs down to the water. 

Great hiking trails!

They have many pull through sites with full hook-ups that are spacious and fairly spaced out. The park has river front, nice access to multiple trails including the paved river trail, and a big playground. 
Be careful where you book your site though, we selected one on a loop north of the road and it was so close to the road that the noise made it hard to hear each other when outside and the early morning traffic was not pleasant to wake up to. 

Nice sites and park but some are too close to the road

This former state park now owned by the city is a great hidden gem on the Guadalupe. It’s also about an hour away from many other state parks you can make as a day trip. Most site have full hookups and the sites are very spacious. 

Hidden Gem on the Guadalupe 

Pulled into our site a little before dinner time. All sites seem to be pull through, so that’s nice but if you get an even number site in the pecan loop be aware of the proximity to a bust county road with a lot of road noise. 

The pecan loop has the most shade, important in Texas in the summer. 

Electrical box is old, rusting and the breakers are loose with wires visible. Use your surge protector here - well, always use a surge protector but especially here.

Water pressure is low so be prettier that too. 

Great Shade - Lots of Road Noise

We have stayed here many times. The park is separated into two sections by a busy road. The office and the River section of the park is on one side. The other side has a lot of great hiking/biking trails. They only have 10 50Amp sites, in Sycamore loop. All other sites are 30Amp. Most RV sites have Sewer, but there are a few that don’t, so watch closely as booking. We prefer the hill side of the park, Deerfield loop to be exact. It is further away from the road and you feel like you are in the country. 

Country setting but close to town

Stacy was wonderful to work with and we really enjoyed our stay. Large wide RV spaces with full hookups with great views of the river. This park also offers cabins as well as vintage trailers for your stay. There is a lovely walking/biking trail that also has picnic tables and BBQ grills.

Great Place for our RV travel

2 different entrances - you must check in at the big station and get a gate code to get to your 30 amp site, water and electric only.
Grab the map, you will definitely need it.
There are almost no signs to direct you. The map is badly done, but it's al you will have. Do not arrive after dark, or you will never find your site. There is no one around to ask if you do go astray, so be prepared to turn around, and watch for 1 weathered gray wooden sign about 18 inches above the grass, letters carved into the wood in matching gray weathered letters and numbers.
The site is gravel pull thru with some shade. 30 amp and a faucet. Fire ring/grill unused due to burn ban. Concrete picnic table, and on site occupied armadillo nest hole under on of the oaks. Dumpster down the road about 50 yards, trailhead for teal hiking trail the other direction about 50 yards. 

Older and Rustic Campground

Great park near the Guadalupe River, amenities were as nice or better than most TX State Parks.  Great trail along the River can be accessed from park.

Great park by the Guadalupe

The tent sites are huge and spread apart. Picnic tables and fire rings at each site. Flush toilets and showers. A highway run through the camp so there is some noise from that, mainly during the day. Town is 2 miles away.
