Texas hill country gem

This state park is usually full and booked far in advance for a reason. It’s beautiful! Lots of upland pine and hardwood bottomlands with history. You can hike in the footsteps of those who traversed the Camino Real and visit the commemorative mission built by the CCC in 1934 to remember the original 1690’s mission.

As far as the campground, when I visited one section was closed due to a sinkhole situation that took out part of the road. Perhaps this section had larger spots available, but from what I could see, there aren’t many spots available for RV’s larger than 24 feet. I have a 24’ Class C and reserved site 3, which the park website lists as accommodating this size. I managed to squeeze in, just barely and the site was so sloped that I couldn’t level and had to move. Fortunately, there was one spot remaining. The RV sites have electric and water.

Hiking is great and make sure to check out Fire tower Hill, Sentry Pine, the CCC bathtubs and the Camino Real.
