American Campground RV and Mobile Home Park

2 RV Sites, 7 Cabins

Situated in Val Verde County near the southern tip of Texas, American Campground RV and Mobile Home Park sits within close reach of Lake Amistad—a massive reservoir straddling the U.S.-Mexico border on the Rio Grande that ranks among the premier fishing and water recreation destinations in the Lone Star State. The campground's combination of tent sites, cabins, and RV pads alongside its flexible rate structure makes it one of the more versatile accommodation options in the Del Rio area for guests staying anywhere from a single night to an extended month-long visit. The property includes nine cabins and 88 RV pads—some with covered shade structures—accommodating guests across a wide range of site preferences. A swimming pool, full kitchen facilities, coin laundry, large restrooms with showers, cable television, and Wi-Fi in communal areas address the everyday comfort needs of guests on longer stays, and the pet-friendly policy makes the campground accessible to travelers with animals. Daily, weekly, and monthly rates allow visitors to match their lodging cost to the duration of their intended stay without penalty. Lake Amistad is the defining natural feature of the Del Rio area, covering more than 65,000 acres of surface water across the Texas-Coahuila border and supporting world-class bass, striped bass, catfish, and crappie fishing that draws anglers from across the country. The lake's clear water and dramatic canyon topography—carved by the confluence of the Rio Grande, Devils River, and Pecos River—provide a striking visual backdrop for boating and fishing excursions, and swimming beaches along the U.S. shoreline make it suitable for family outings beyond dedicated fishing days. Amistad National Recreation Area, administered by the National Park Service, manages the lake's recreational infrastructure and provides boat ramps, picnic areas, and access to significant Native American rock art sites preserved in the canyon walls along the lake's remote arms. The Val Verde Winery in downtown Del Rio—one of the oldest continuously operating wineries in Texas, established in 1883—provides an evening excursion option with tasting room access and a history rooted in the region's Spanish and Italian immigrant heritage. American Campground is open year-round, with spring and fall representing the most pleasant seasons for outdoor recreation on Lake Amistad. Summer brings intense south Texas heat that makes early morning fishing and water recreation preferable to midday outdoor activity, while mild winters make the campground a viable destination for guests escaping colder northern climates. Reservations are advisable for spring and holiday weekends when fishing tournament traffic and regional visitors compete for available sites near the lake. Val Verde County occupies a transition zone between the Chihuahuan Desert to the west and the Edwards Plateau to the east, giving the Del Rio area a landscape of scrub cedar, prickly pear, and dramatic limestone canyon terrain that extends from the Rio Grande northward into the Texas Hill Country. The border character of Del Rio—connected to Ciudad Acuña, Coahuila by the international bridge—gives the area a bicultural identity that adds cultural texture to visits focused primarily on Lake Amistad's outdoor recreation.

Aviator RV Park

Aviator RV Park in Abilene, Texas, takes its identity from the air — specifically from Dyess Air Force Base, 3.5 miles away and home to the B-1 Lancer supersonic strategic bomber, the C-130 Hercules tactical airlift fleet, and the incoming B-21 Raider next-generation stealth bomber that will continue Dyess's role as one of the Air Force's most operationally significant installations. The campground's proximity to base makes it the natural choice for military personnel and their families during PCS moves, temporary duty assignments, and base visits, while the aviation theme and Dyess's public events calendar give the broader traveling community reasons to choose Aviator over the area's more neutrally branded alternatives. Full-hookup RV sites with the practical infrastructure for comfortable extended stays serve both the military community's longer-term needs and the through-traveler's overnight requirements along the I-20 West Texas corridor. The campground's clean facilities, reliable hookups, and straightforward operational quality make it a consistent choice for guests who value competent management over resort-style amenity depth. The surrounding Abilene landscape delivers the wide, sky-dominated West Texas atmosphere that consistently impresses guests arriving from more densely developed parts of the state. Pets are welcome. Frontier Texas in central Abilene presents the story of the Texas frontier era from the 1780s through the 1880s through holographic spirit guides and immersive environmental exhibits that bring the period's violent confrontations between Comanche raiders, buffalo hunters, and Anglo settlers to life in a format more emotionally immediate than conventional museum presentation allows. The museum's coverage of the Comanche nation's dominance of the Llano Estacado and the Buffalo Soldiers' role in the Indian Wars reflects a genuine historical complexity that the exhibit design handles more evenhandedly than many frontier museums manage. The Dyess Linear Air Park — a free outdoor museum on Dyess AFB's perimeter road displaying historic aircraft from the B-17 Flying Fortress through modern jets — is accessible to the public and provides one of the most comprehensive aircraft park experiences available in West Texas, with the B-1 Lancer flyovers from active Dyess operations occasionally providing live overhead drama that no static display can replicate. The West Texas Fair and Rodeo in September is one of the region's largest agricultural and rodeo events, drawing participants and spectators from across the Taylor County area for a week of competition that reflects the cattle and ranch culture that still defines much of the Abilene economy. Aviator RV Park operates year-round in Abilene's dry, high-plains climate where mild winters and consistent sunshine make it a viable destination in every month. The West Texas Fair in September creates the area's highest annual demand spike for campground sites. Military move season in June and July drives significant Dyess-related demand for the campground's extended-stay capacity. Reserve ahead for fair and rodeo season and for any period when Dyess operational events drive temporary population increases in the base community.

M Bar H Lodge and RV Park

26 RV Sites

M Bar H Lodge and RV Park in Santa Anna, Texas, offers a genuinely warm and personal Texas hospitality experience in Coleman County — a rural central Texas community midway between Abilene to the north and Brady to the south, where the rolling post-oak and mesquite savanna landscape of the central Texas prairies provides the backdrop for an accommodation that combines rustic lodge character with the practical infrastructure of a full-service RV park. The property's commitment to the kind of Southern hospitality where guests feel like family rather than paying customers gives it a character difficult to replicate in larger, more anonymously operated campgrounds. The main lodge with its welcoming common spaces, a bunk house for group accommodations, and three individual mini-suites give guests a range of solid-wall lodging options anchored by home-cooked meals that the property's regular guests consistently identify as among the most genuinely satisfying camping-adjacent food experiences in central Texas. Twenty-three fully equipped RV sites with both back-in and pull-through configurations, complete utility hookups, community restrooms, showers, laundry facilities, and Wi-Fi serve the motorhome and trailer traveler with the practical completeness that an extended-stay facility requires. The property is fully pet-friendly, making it a consistent choice for traveling families with dogs. The brief walk to Santa Anna's historic town square puts the community's small-town Texas character within immediate pedestrian reach. Santa Anna's historic downtown around the courthouse square reflects the architectural legacy of a Coleman County community that developed through the cattle drives, railroad era, and early 20th-century oil and agricultural economy — the square's buildings and the pace of community life in a rural Texas county seat provide an authentic encounter with a Texas that the state's major metros have largely absorbed into their own expansion. The surrounding landscape of rolling savanna, stock ponds, and the working ranch country that defines Coleman County gives the property's grounds and immediate surroundings a spaciousness and natural quiet that the campground leverages effectively. Lake Coleman and Lake O.H. Ivie are the nearest significant water recreation destinations within the Coleman County region — Lake Coleman provides local fishing and boating access, while O.H. Ivie, one of Texas's most productive and least-known bass fishing reservoirs, sits in Concho County southeast of Coleman and draws serious bass anglers from across central Texas who value the lake's consistent trophy largemouth production and relatively light fishing pressure compared to the more heavily marketed Central Texas lake destinations. The Abilene cultural and entertainment corridor — Frontier Texas, the Abilene Zoo, and the West Texas Fair — is a manageable day-trip drive north. M Bar H Lodge and RV Park serves guests year-round in Coleman County's mild central Texas climate, where the four-season outdoor calendar provides workable visiting conditions in every month. Spring and fall deliver the most comfortable temperatures for the outdoor recreation and landscape appreciation that the property's rural setting makes available. Reserve lodge rooms and mini-suites ahead for the hunting season windows in fall and winter, when Coleman County's deer and turkey hunting draws sports hunters from across the state to the post-oak savanna country that surrounds Santa Anna.

Cowboys and Angels Retreat

In the limestone hills and live oak valleys of Texas Hill Country near Kerrville, Cowboys and Angels Retreat occupies 50 secluded acres in Mountain Home, Kerr County—a location that delivers the rare combination of genuine rural isolation and comfortable resort amenities, Bortle 3 dark skies overhead, and the full Texas Hill Country experience within easy reach of the Guadalupe River, the Hill Country Wine Trail, and the community of Kerrville that anchors the region's cultural and outdoor recreation life. For travelers who want a Texas getaway that feels like a genuine escape rather than a suburban RV park, Cowboys and Angels provides the setting and the solitude. Themed cabins in a variety of configurations give guests the rustic-with-comfort accommodation that fits the Hill Country aesthetic, and full-service RV sites accommodate large rigs on a gated property with a swimming pool, hot tub, and laundry. A community fire pit creates the evening gathering space that the Hill Country's warm nights call for, and walking trails through the property's 50 acres allow guests to explore the terrain and observe the whitetail deer, wild turkeys, and the exotic species that roam through this part of Kerr County with characteristic Hill Country unconcern for the humans watching them. WiFi is available throughout for guests who need connectivity. The retreat's event venue infrastructure—a fully equipped serving kitchen, party barn, pavilion, and outdoor bar (BYOB)—makes Cowboys and Angels a serious wedding and event destination in addition to a campground, and the private 50-acre setting provides the seclusion that Hill Country event planners and couples come looking for in this part of the state. A spring-fed pond on the property supports fishing and the wildlife observation that the water source naturally concentrates, and the surrounding Kerr County landscape creates the intimate, rolling terrain that defines the Hill Country's visual character. Mountain Home's position in Kerr County puts it in the geographic heart of the Texas Hill Country Wine Trail, where over 50 wineries and tasting rooms have transformed the region into one of the most productive wine-growing areas in the state. Kerrville, the county seat, provides the Guadalupe River State Park and Honey Creek State Natural Area, the Kerrville Folk Festival—one of Texas's most beloved outdoor music events—and the Riverside Nature Center's native plant gardens and wildlife education programming. The Guadalupe River's cold, spring-fed waters support excellent fishing and tubing in the warmer months. Cowboys and Angels operates as a year-round retreat in the Hill Country's mild climate, where even January days are typically comfortable and the spring wildflower season from March through April produces the bluebonnet displays that make Kerr County roads some of the most scenic in Texas. Summer brings the pool and the outdoor bar to prominence; fall brings the golden light and comfortable temperatures that make the Hill Country's live oak and cypress landscape particularly beautiful. Reserve your cabin or RV site at Cowboys and Angels and let Kerr County's 50 acres of stargazing, wildlife, and Hill Country character deliver exactly the Texas escape you came looking for.

HTR TX Hill Country

13 RV Sites, 16 Cabins, 13 Tent Sites

HTR TX Hill Country in Kerrville, Texas, provides a diverse and well-equipped camping resort in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, a landscape of clear limestone-bottomed rivers, juniper and live oak woodland, and rolling cedar-covered hills that draws more visitors annually than any other inland region in Texas. Situated where the Guadalupe River flows through the hills above its lower valley and the city of Kerrville serves as the cultural and commercial hub of the Hill Country's central tier, the resort delivers a broad accommodation mix and comprehensive on-site amenity package that makes it an anchor destination for visitors exploring one of the American South's most beloved natural and cultural landscapes. The property's accommodations span RV sites with full hookup utility connections, cabin rentals of various configurations, and tent camping areas, providing flexibility for guests traveling in every mode. On-site amenities include a clubhouse, outdoor pool, walking trails, a general store, recreation center, and paddle boarding and kayaking access on the Guadalupe River—a water recreation asset that distinguishes the resort from inland Hill Country properties without direct river frontage. The river's clear water and scenic setting make it the defining experiential element of a stay, and the resort's access to the Guadalupe connects guests directly to one of the Hill Country's most iconic natural features. The Texas Hill Country's landscape is one of the most ecologically distinctive in the state, where the Edwards Plateau's limestone geology supports a unique flora including the iconic Texas live oak, Ashe juniper, and the endangered golden-cheeked warbler that nests exclusively in old-growth Ashe juniper and is found nowhere else in the world. The Guadalupe River's clear spring-fed waters—maintained by the Edwards Aquifer's extraordinary productivity—create one of the most beloved swimming, tubing, and kayaking destinations in Texas, and the river corridor between Kerrville and Canyon Lake is the most heavily visited outdoor recreation corridor in the state's interior. Kerrville itself anchors a rich cultural landscape, with the Museum of Western Art, the Cowboy Artists of America Foundation, and the Kerrville Folk Festival—one of the longest-running music festivals in the country—providing cultural programming that distinguishes it from purely outdoor-focused Hill Country communities. Fredericksburg, approximately 25 miles east via TX-16, offers the Hill Country's most complete visitor infrastructure with German heritage-inspired architecture, dozens of wine tasting rooms, and a culinary scene that has made it one of Texas's most popular weekend destination towns. Lost Maples State Natural Area to the south and Enchanted Rock State Natural Area to the northeast provide the Hill Country's premier hiking and fall foliage experiences within easy day-trip range. HTR TX Hill Country operates year-round, with spring's wildflower season from March through April and fall's comfortable temperatures and river clarity in September through November representing the most popular visitation windows for serious Hill Country enthusiasts. Summer brings Texas-scale heat to the cedar hills but the Guadalupe River's spring-fed cool water moderates the experience for guests who spend hot afternoons in the water. Holiday weekends and fall tubing season on the Guadalupe fill the resort's capacity quickly, making advance reservations essential for guests targeting the Hill Country's peak demand windows.

SKYE Texas Hill Country Resort

57 RV Sites, 35 Cabins, 6 Nature Pods

SKYE Texas Hill Country Resort in Fredericksburg offers 57 full-hookup RV sites, 35 cabins, and six nature pods, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, EV charging, and rigs accepted to 45 feet behind a gated entrance.

Fifty-seven sites span deluxe back-in, premium back-in, pull-thru, waterfront back-in, and waterfront pull-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. EV charging on site is still uncommon at RV resorts and worth knowing about if you tow with an electric vehicle. Thirty-five cabins and six nature pods round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, a snack bar, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with a clubhouse, sports courts, pickleball, bocce ball, walking trails, a lake, pond, pavilion, and on-site dining filling the grounds. Live music runs through the season, hiking and biking are close, and the dark Hill Country sky makes for excellent stargazing. Birding across the property is productive. Fredericksburg is the most visited town in the Texas Hill Country — German heritage, Main Street's shops and beer halls, more than 50 wineries within a short drive, and Enchanted Rock just north. Spring wildflowers and fall harvest drive the sharpest demand in Fredericksburg. Reserve well ahead for March through May and September through November.

Spring wildflowers and fall bring the most comfortable Hill Country conditions. Reserve ahead for rodeo weekends and holiday periods.

Republic of Texas Campground

25 RV Sites

Republic of Texas Campground in Comanche, Texas, offers a peaceful and welcoming RV park at the edge of the Texas Hill Country, occupying a position in Comanche County where the rolling oak and juniper terrain of the Hill Country's eastern transition zone creates a scenic and genuinely rural setting for travelers seeking the quiet hospitality of small-town Central Texas without the tourist infrastructure pressure of the more heavily visited Hill Country communities to the south and west. Named with pride for the independent republic that preceded Texas statehood, the campground reflects the deep-rooted historical identity of one of the state's most authentic frontier county seats. The campground provides full hookup sites with water, electric, and sewer connections in a pet-friendly environment that welcomes traveling dogs with space to roam and the practical amenities that make multi-night stays comfortable for families. Wi-Fi service, clean restrooms and showers, and a playground supplement the utility connections, and the park's organized activities programming adds social value for guests who enjoy the planned event culture that distinguishes active campgrounds from simple overnight parking options. The property's atmosphere reflects the genuine Texas welcome that characterizes independently operated campgrounds in small communities where repeat visitors and word-of-mouth referrals drive occupancy. Comanche County's landscape represents the Hill Country's northeastern edge, where the Llano Uplift's granite and limestone outcroppings soften into the Post Oak Savanna's gentler rolling terrain and the rivers shift from the clear, spring-fed streams of the deeper Hill Country to the murkier tributaries of the Brazos River watershed. The county's namesake town preserves one of Central Texas's most complete nineteenth-century commercial districts, with limestone and sandstone buildings along the historic square reflecting the courthouse culture and mercantile heritage of a frontier county that was established in 1856 during the era of Comanche raids that gave both the county and the tribe their tangled history. Proctor Lake, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir on the Leon River approximately 15 miles west of Comanche, provides the primary large-water recreation destination for the area, with boating, fishing for catfish and bass, and swimming access in a setting that draws weekend visitors from the Fort Worth corridor and the Waco and Abilene metropolitan areas. The Colorado River communities of Lake Brownwood to the west and the Lampasas and Burnet lake country to the south extend the regional recreation options available for guests using the campground as a base. The town of Comanche's Pioneer Burial Park—one of the most historically significant frontier cemeteries in the state—and the Comanche Chief Courthouse provide local cultural context for guests interested in the deep history of this corner of Texas. Republic of Texas Campground operates year-round in Central Texas's four-season climate, with spring's wildflower season and fall's mild temperatures representing the most comfortable windows for outdoor exploration in the Hill Country transition zone. Summer temperatures in Comanche County can be hot, but the park's mature tree cover and evening breezes off the rolling terrain moderate the heat sufficiently for comfortable camping for guests who plan outdoor activities for morning and evening hours. The campground's value pricing, genuine small-town Texas character, and position at the gateway to the Hill Country's outdoor recreation make it a practical and atmospheric choice for budget-conscious travelers exploring Central Texas.

Triple C Oasis Resort

On over 10 acres in Hondo, Texas—in Medina County at the edge of the Texas Hill Country where the Balcones Escarpment's limestone terrain and the mesquite-and-live-oak ranch country of the Edwards Plateau create the rugged outdoor setting that a Hill Country glamping resort requires—Triple C Oasis Resort, established in 2023, offers insulated fire-resistant 6-meter geodomes with private BBQ grills and fire pits and eco-friendly open floor plans, bell tent bungalows with the softly structured canvas comfort that the glamping format delivers, and The Oasis—a full coffee bar, general store with snacks and outdoor essentials, outdoor lounge for yard games and social gatherings, hot tub, pizza ovens, BBQ pits, showers, and a professional fitness space—in a luxurious nature retreat whose Hill Country position makes it the polished, social glamping address between San Antonio and Hondo for the traveler who wants the campfire without the tent stakes and the outdoor setting without the discomfort. The geodomes are the draw. The coffee bar is the bonus. The 6-meter insulated geodomes provide the distinctive accommodation that defines Triple C's glamping identity—the geodesic structure's efficient geometry and the fire-resistant, insulated fabric create a comfortable interior in the Hill Country's heat and overnight cool, with the eco-friendly open floor plan and the private BBQ grill and fire pit at each unit creating the self-contained outdoor-living experience that the glamping format promises. Bell tent bungalows in the softly structured canvas format provide the alternative accommodation character for guests whose aesthetic runs toward classic canvas camp rather than the geodome's geometric modernity. The Oasis hub—coffee bar, general store, hot tub, pizza ovens, BBQ pits, outdoor lounge with yard games, and the Gym-on-the-Go fitness space with professional-grade equipment—creates the social and recreational center that pulls the resort's guests out of their individual units and into the shared outdoor experience. Hondo sits in Medina County on US-90 between San Antonio and Uvalde in the gently rolling terrain where the Balcones Escarpment's limestone hills and the Edwards Plateau's open ranch country meet the Rio Grande Plains' broader flatland character. The Medina River, flowing through Medina County from its Hill Country headwaters, and the surrounding ranch land support the white-tailed deer, feral hogs, and native bird populations that the Hill Country's outdoor recreation culture centers on. Medina Lake, 30 miles northeast via US-90 and SH-16, occupies the Medina River canyon in the limestone hills north of Castroville—the dam-formed reservoir's 5,575 acres provide the fishing, boating, and waterfront recreation that Medina County's lake recreation alternative to the Frio River offers. San Antonio, 40 miles east on US-90, provides the full metropolitan experience—the Alamo, the River Walk's 15 miles of riverside dining and entertainment, the San Antonio Missions UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Pearl Brewery district that are accessible for a day trip from the Hondo glamping base. Uvalde, 30 miles west, provides the regional town center and the gateway to Garner State Park and the Frio River corridor beyond. Triple C Oasis Resort operates in Medina County's subtropical climate with the Hill Country's moderate elevation providing the cooler overnight temperatures that make outdoor glamping genuinely comfortable from spring through fall—the March through May wildflower season brings the Texas Hill Country's bluebonnet and paintbrush bloom to the roadsides surrounding Hondo, and the October and November deer season activates the Medina County hunting culture that surrounds the resort's ranch-country setting. Reserve your geodome or bell tent at Triple C Oasis and let the Hondo Hill Country, the coffee bar, the hot tub, and the 10-acre glamping retreat deliver the luxurious nature reset that the Texas ranch country between San Antonio and the Frio River provides.

Lake Fun Properties

28 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 1 House

Lake Fun Properties in Kingsland, Texas, delivers a lakefront resort camping experience on Lake Lyndon B. Johnson in Llano County's Hill Country corridor, where the Highland Lakes chain's deepest reservoir provides year-round boating, fishing, and water skiing on the clear, warm waters of the Colorado River impoundment that the Lower Colorado River Authority created in 1951. Positioned in the Colorado River's Highland Lakes chain between Lake Marble Falls to the east and Lake Buchanan to the west, the resort serves the lake-lifestyle visitors and Hill Country tourism travelers whose Kingsland itinerary centers on LBJ Lake's consistent recreational productivity and the nearby wine country and natural scenery of central Texas's most popular vacation region. The resort's waterfront amenity package delivers direct lake engagement: boat docks for guests who bring their own watercraft, canoeing and kayaking access, swimming in the Highland Lakes' clear warm water, and the walking trails and pavilion that extend the outdoor experience beyond the waterfront. Full hookup big-rig-friendly sites, cabin rentals, a clubhouse, dining, laundry, dump station, and Wi-Fi provide the complete infrastructure for multi-day lake stays, and the golf course access nearby serves guests who integrate fairway recreation into their lake-centered itinerary. Stargazing under the Hill Country's dark skies adds a celestial dimension to evening hours on the lake that the region's low light pollution makes genuinely rewarding. Lake LBJ is the deepest lake in the Highland Lakes chain and the most constant in level, receiving its water from the Highland Lakes impoundments above and maintaining consistent boating conditions that make it particularly popular for water skiing, wake boarding, and the pontoon boating culture that has defined the Kingsland and Horseshoe Bay residential lake community since the 1960s. The lake's 6,000 acres of clear Colorado River water enclosed by the Hill Country's granite-and-limestone terrain create the visual character of the central Texas lake experience at its most appealing—glassy morning water reflecting the live oak and juniper hillsides on both shores before the afternoon breeze arrives. Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, approximately 30 miles northwest via RM-152 and RM-965, provides the Hill Country's most celebrated geological attraction in the massive exfoliated granite dome that rises 425 feet above the Llano Uplift and is considered sacred by the Tonkawa people who inhabited this territory before European settlement. The Fredericksburg wine tasting corridor and the LBJ Ranch's birthplace and burial site are accessible in under an hour, and the Llano River—a dedicated Geological State Landmark for its exposure of some of the oldest rocks in Texas—flows through nearby Mason County in one of the Hill Country's clearest and most beautiful river corridors. Lake Fun Properties operates year-round in the Highland Lakes' semi-arid Hill Country climate, with the Lake LBJ boating and water sports season running at full capacity from late April through September when the warm water, consistent sunshine, and school-vacation calendar drive maximum lake recreation demand. Fall's cooler temperatures extend the boating and kayaking season into November with dramatically reduced boat traffic, and the wine harvest season at the surrounding Hill Country wineries creates an additional September-October visitation draw for guests combining lake recreation with the corridor's wine tourism. Winter's mild conditions sustain year-round lake fishing for the bass and crappie populations that LBJ's clear, deep water sustains.
