Stargazing

Terraqueous RV Resort

135 RV Sites

Terraqueous RV Resort in Blanco, Texas, offers 135 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet, in the Texas Hill Country. Deluxe covered, deluxe waterfront, and premium shaded categories join a splash pad, hot tub, and pickleball courts in a certified International Dark Sky Community. One hundred thirty-five sites span deluxe covered back-in, deluxe waterfront back-in, deluxe pull-through, premium shaded back-in, and premium pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, BBQ pits, and site WiFi. Covered and shaded categories are worth requesting in a Texas summer, and the waterfront sites carry the best outlook. Laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and splash pad anchor the warm months, with a hot tub and sauna alongside. A lake and pond support fishing, with pickleball, bocce ball, basketball, horseshoes, walking trails, a playground, dog park, and snack bar filling the grounds and planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. Blanco County's designation as a certified International Dark Sky Community is the distinguishing feature — the night sky here is protected by ordinance, and the stargazing is consistently exceptional rather than weather-dependent luck. The resort sits off RM-32 where the Blanco River slides through limestone ledges and cypress groves, with Hill Country vineyards and a state park nearby. Spring wildflowers and fall drive the heaviest Hill Country demand. Reserve ahead.

Krause Springs

18 RV Sites, 6 Tent Sites

Krause Springs in Spicewood, Texas, offers 18 RV sites and six tent sites on a 115-acre Hill Country property fed by 32 natural springs, with 20, 30, and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 40 feet, behind a gated entrance. A single back-in category joins a spring-fed pool, natural swimming holes, walking trails, and a butterfly garden. Eighteen back-in sites carry water and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 40 feet, with picnic tables and BBQ pits. Two things to plan around: sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity and use the dump station, and the 40-foot cap rules out larger coaches. Six tent sites round out the lodging. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and a pavilion handle the practical side. Two policies to know before you book: the gates close at 8pm with no exceptions, and pets are not permitted at the park. The springs are the entire draw. Thirty-two of them feed both a manmade swimming pool and a series of natural swimming holes shaded by cypress, with a waterfall and grotto that draw visitors from across Central Texas. Walking trails, hiking, fishing, and genuinely good stargazing fill the rest. The Krause family has owned the property in Burnet County for more than five decades, and it remains one of the Hill Country's most beloved and most enduring swimming destinations — Lake Travis, Marble Falls, and Austin are all close. Summer is decisively the season, and the swimming holes fill. Reserve well ahead, and plan your arrival before the 8pm gate closure.

Rebecca Creek Campgrounds

5 Glamping Sites

On a scenic bend where the Guadalupe River meets Rebecca Creek and Schultz Creek in the Texas Hill Country of Comal County, Rebecca Creek Campgrounds has created a multi-use outdoor destination on more than 15 acres of riverfront property in the community of Spring Branch—a campground that serves the tube floating, kayaking, and river swimming crowd that makes the Guadalupe the most popular river in Texas from May through September with a variety of accommodations ranging from primitive tent sites to fully furnished glamping tents with hotel-style amenities. Full-hookup RV sites, primitive water and electric sites, private bunk rooms, and kayak and tube rentals position Rebecca Creek as one of the Hill Country river campgrounds that thought through the full visitor experience rather than simply providing a parking spot near moving water. Full-hookup RV sites with water and electric connections, primitive sites with covered tables, glamping tents with hotel amenities, private bunk rooms with separate shower houses, and primitive tent camping collectively cover the full accommodation spectrum from the self-contained motorhome to the group of friends sharing a bunk room for a weekend float trip. A fully plumbed bathhouse with showers, an on-site laundromat, and free Wi-Fi throughout most of the campground provide the practical support infrastructure, and tube and kayak rentals with complimentary life vests on a first-come, first-served basis give guests immediate river access without requiring personal watercraft. The Guadalupe River's convergence with Rebecca Creek creates the campground's most natural recreational asset—a swimming, floating, and fishing location where the cold spring-fed Guadalupe stays refreshingly cool through the summer heat that makes July and August float trips the most popular outdoor recreation in Comal County. White bass runs in the early spring, catfish fishing year-round, and the swimming that the campground's river frontage enables give the property a multi-season fishing and aquatic character beyond the summer tube-floating crowd. A horseshoe court, volleyball area, and children's playground with a small rock wall complete the recreational infrastructure for guests who want activity beyond the river. Canyon Lake, about 12 miles west on the Guadalupe River upstream from Spring Branch, provides the flatwater reservoir recreation that complements the river camping experience—an 8,230-acre Corps of Engineers reservoir with swimming beaches, boat ramps, and the whitewater release below the spillway that activates the Guadalupe's most exciting paddling when the Army Corps releases water through the dam gates. Guadalupe River State Park, about 14 miles east, preserves four miles of the Guadalupe's most scenic cypress-lined corridor in a managed natural environment. New Braunfels, 15 miles southeast, offers Schlitterbahn Waterpark, River Road's tubing outfitters, and the German heritage Wurstfest celebration each November. The Texas Hill Country's mild climate makes Rebecca Creek functional from spring through fall, with the peak floating season running from Memorial Day through Labor Day when the Guadalupe's spring-fed cool water provides an escape from intense Hill Country summer heat. Spring brings the white bass run and wildflower season to the Hill Country landscape, with the Comal County limestone hills flowering in Indian paintbrush and bluebonnets in late March and April. Fall provides more moderate river temperatures and the shift in the Hill Country's recreational calendar toward hiking and family camping that summer crowds the Guadalupe's swimming holes, making September and October the most enjoyable months for an extended riverfront stay.

Pets are welcome. Boat docks put guests straight onto the lake for boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking, and water skiing, with walking trails, horseshoes, and hiking on and around the property. The dark Hill Country sky is worth staying up for. Kingsland sits in Llano County on Lake LBJ, the deepest reservoir in the Highland Lakes chain, where the Llano and Colorado rivers meet.

Fifty-one sites span deluxe back-in, premium back-in, pull-thru, and waterfront back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric 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.

A pet washing station is on site. An outdoor pool and hot tub anchor the warm months, with a catch-and-release fishing lake, fishing pier, and beach on the property supporting paddle boats, paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, and boating. Mini-golf, horseshoes, ping pong, walking trails, a clubhouse, barn, dog park, and on-site dining fill the rest, with strong stargazing and birding across the acreage. Pets are welcome. Buda sits 0.2 miles off I-35 in Hays County, five minutes from a downtown that has kept its small-town character against the suburban push south from Austin. Doc's Drive-In Theatre is two miles away, with Main St. Pizzeria and Beer Garden and MudBugs both two miles and Willie's Joint bar and grill three. Austin event weekends drive demand hard. Reserve well ahead.

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.

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.
