We have previously enjoyed our stays here, but the attitude at Buckhorn has gotten arrogant and unfriendly with most of the employees. There policy and rules change with who you speak with and there are now excuses in place of the friendly help we use to recieve. The park is still very nice but after being told that I need to sweep my own site clean after their mowing ! They mow twice a week and no longer clean up the clippings. We will never stay here for an extended stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is definitely a "Class A" resort. This is well stocked country store that includes a nice selection of wines. The staff are very professional and helpful. I am looking forward to staying here again. It was so nice we stayed for four nights and used the entire facility. Very clean restrooms and laundry facility. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The only real complaint we had was that the aircard worked sporadically. This is the first RV campground that called itself a "resort" that is worthy of such an honor. The grocery store was fully stocked, even the wines they sold were quality. They are a full service resort. They will deliver practically anything to your site except for diesel or food. Even disposing of the garbage is done curb side at your site. It doesn't get any better than that. Even the laundry room was a delight. There are four washer/dryers in a very comfortable room with a table, chair and lots of magazines to pass time. We will DEFINITELY stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is one of the best parks we have ever stayed at. The people were nice and helpful. The sites are all large and very easy to pull into. There are trees but not in the way of any motorhomes. The wifi actually worked well. The had a meat (spelling is correct) and greet that was hosted by very friendly work campers that we attended. The area it's in is very pretty and we enjoyed our stay. We will definitely stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved this park. Easy access off of I-10, but don't believe your GPS if it tells you to turn south at the exit. The park is just north of the highway. Paved roads with concrete parking pads for the RV, concrete patio, additional gravel area to park the tow car. Some grass at site. Sites are large and angled for ease of parking. We had no problems maneuvering our 41' motorhome around the park. Very friendly staff and guests. Nice adults only section that included a pool and workout room. Looking forward to the chance to stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

One of the nicest resorts we've stayed in during our 30+ years of RVing. Perfectly level concrete slab sites with patio. Our 40 footer with the towed had plenty of room. Wi-Fi that really works, exceptional cable TV all kind of services available at your site. All topped of with a very professional staff. Expensive, but worth it. Look forward to a future visit.

We stayed here one month - electric is additional. This is a very nice park. There is an executive area which is for adults only, and a club area for owners. The sites are large and paved. There is a stream running through and some trees. They have lots of activities which they need because there is very little happening in and around Kerrville. San Antonio is about an hour away. Do visit the YO Ranch which is about 45 minutes northwest. The office staff is neither friendly nor helpful. Note: their wifi rarely works and this is a Verizon free zone. We had to purchase an AT&T card locally so we could get on the internet. We camped here in a Motorhome.

It is great for one night or longer. A clean and attractive easy access RV resort, with many amenities like on site washes, computer repair, RV repair, on site propane delivery, and etc. The staff was very congenial.

Easy. Spacious. Service-friendly. The Park is a short drive from I-10 with a large entrance. The sites are easy to get to and are spacious. The managers are ready with answers to questions and suggestions about the services and sights in Hill Country. Services (propane delivery, repair, rig-weighing, lube, washing) are available along with camp dinners and celebrations. We were here for a month and will return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Like other reviewers, I only have good things to say. We wanted wood, they delivered. We wanted to wash our coach, they delivered a hose. Needless to say, the people at the gate were wonderful. While the lake was low on water, the view was not. The dogs had lots to sniff and a great place to do it in. Whatever you do, don't tell anyone about this place, I want to be able to get in again.

This place has the WOW factor. The website does not do it justice, so the park was much prettier and upscale than I expected. The grass looks like a golf course and everything is immaculate in appearance. The staff was very friendly and helpful. At this time of year, there are not many activities going on, but they are gearing up for the Winter Texans. I would recommend this park to anyone looking for a short stay or a long stay. There is something for everyone. We will definitely stay here again when we are in the area. Rate shown is for a pull-through. Back in spaces are a little less. Rate includes free Wi-Fi and cable TV.

Spent 4th of July weekend at this park, and don't have one negative thing to say. The park was near capacity, but the amenities and facilities were great. Clean pool, hot tub, showers, restrooms, and manicured lawns. There was a 4th of July Parade, hamburger social, ice cream social, and an awesome fireworks display. Lots of families, kids, and respectable RV'ers. We'll definitely return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed for 4 nights and loved it.The park was recommended by a repeat camper of the park. She spoke highly of it and we wanted to try it out. So we did!!!I loved the whole place; and the scenery surrounding us was lovely. We had a tree limb accident in another town on our way to Buckhorn did not know it until our set up there. The team in the office helped me quickly to find their repairman Chris. Inexpensive and new at stuff, he put our mind right to ease and made the repairs. I knew we were at a good place. All the staff were friendly. I loved the garbage pickup every morning. Never saw dumpsters. The pool and showers and laundry were right next to our site. The little grocery store was stocked. We did not have to leave, but on a trip to town we discovered the Lake House Fish Restaurant. Best fish this TEXAS girl ever put in her mouth. This park was wonderful and loved the stream with loads of fish. It was very relaxing there and we never heard the Interstate. It is a must go to place. You'll love it. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Fantastic campground! This is the most beautiful park! It is meticulously groomed! It is a tad pricey but definitely worth it! Depending on the time of year, they cater meals & feature movies on their cable system every night. They have a guy that goes to the rigs & does a superior job of washing & waxing rigs - we were pleased by the job he did. Buckhorn also has a handyman that is available to work on the individual rigs & repairs whatever needs to be done (in our case, we needed to have our a/c worked on & he fixed it professionally. The roads are all paved, as are the sites. There are 2 or 3 pools & one of them is for adults only. We also stated in the adult section. The exercise room is clean & the equipment well maintained. Wi-Fi is fast & dependable. Interstate 10 is nearby & is a little noisy but other than that, this park is perfect & we gladly give it a 10! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground gets our highest rating. It is beautiful. Paved streets, grassy areas, paved camp site, excellent patio tables. We had a pull forward site with a nice view of the lake/river/stream. The staff was excellent and the facilities are upscale. There are many pull thru sites that are excellent for a motor home and tow vehicle. The grounds are pleasant to walk around and our pet "Sammy" loved it. No stickers here. If we return to the hill country of Texas this campground will be on our itinerary.

Beautiful park, easy access,extra long sites. We're 43' towing full size SUV and still had extra room on slab. Staff not outgoing. By contrast other campers were some of the friendliest we've had the privilege to meet. Lady in office would not honor big rigs 2nd nite free offer as I didn't present it at check-in. My mistake and I didn't argue, but the advertisement made no such stipulation. Oh well, live and learn. We will return as the place is very nice. I give it a 10 partly due to some of the so called "resorts" we've stayed at in the past that weren't. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Other than Outdoor Resorts, this is the only park that I have rated as a 10. The rate given is for month in the Executive section. No one under 16 is permitted in this area. However, this time of year it really doesn't matter since the kids are in school anyway. In this area the sites are very large with large patios and with a nice table and 4 chairs. The other sites in the park are very adequate size and have bench type tables. There are a very few sites with shade. The "Club" section has lots available on long term lease (30 years) with some beautiful casitas and homes. Free Wi-Fi, not outstanding signal, but adequate. Verizon cell phones--this is an extended area and the signal is weak, but can usually make a call. There is lots to do in the area, Fredericksburg, Luckenbach, vineyards, etc. At out site there is a huge grassy area which makes a beautiful and peaceful setting. I would recommend this resort for long or short term stays. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Not sure what the other reviewers were looking at. Yes, this CG looks nice on the outside, but don't judge a book by its cover. Bathrooms were dirty. My husband got violently ill at the barn from food poisoning. Could not go outside to enjoy weather as we nearly got run over by the person mowing. Wifi barely worked, we were better off driving 7 miles to the Starbucks to get online. Front office staff was horrible. Better parks in the area where you get more for the money. We will NOT stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Perhaps the best park in the state. Very well designd and layed out. Sites are big rig friendly and level. Lots of amenities and many services available for those requesting them. Our rate was based on the weekly rate ($210) plus electric. Only park we have ever been in that told us to pay when we check out. Good cable and wifi. Laundry area was very clean. The hooks ups and pads are super. We had some problems with cell phone signal but it worked ok most of the time (we use verizon). We noticed just a little traffic noise, but in general it was very quite and we liked the easy access to I-10. We would stay in this park again when in the area and will stay longer the next time we are in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great park! We had a spot that faced a stream and a treed area. There are lots of things to do here and the staff is friendly. You park on cement. The trees are small so there is no problem with satellite. Verizon cell phone service is poor however. my only complaint is that is gets cold at night in the winter. We were here for two months (hence the low figure for nightly rate) and loved it. The days are warm and breezy. We will definitely come back but maybe it will be in the shoulder season when the nights are warmer. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground has a very easy access. Its the nicest Campground I have ever seen. I travel in a 45' Newell and it is definitely a Big Rig or little rig park. The check in staff member (man) was not very nice, but everyone else was. Maybe he was just having a bad day. He got aggrivated because we had a discount coupon from the Big Rig book, but didn't tell him first. He should have asked and had to recalculate the fee for the three day stay. I felt that they would give me the discount if I asked but if I didn't they would make more money. I can't blame them for wanting to make a profit but I felt that they were not being totally honest. That is my only complaint. Other than that one person the campground is a 10 plus. They even tell you that you can WASH you coach. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a top rated park and should be a 10 plus. Very large sites and roads. Everything is so clean. Pool for kids and one for adults only. Everything you can think of is here. No open fires on ground. Layout of park is great. WiFi is free and works very well. Kerrville is five miles away for all your needs, super Wal-Mart and good places to eat. Outstanding park to visit. Staff was great and very helpful to me. I could not hear any noise from I-10 from our site and we were on south side near road, I-10 is 1/2 mile away. I only wish more RV resorts were setup like this place. We will return anytime we travel this way on I-10 to spend more time here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is by far the nicest park we have stayed at, and would deserve a 10, but the last two visits have demonstrated to us that management thinks they are doing you a favor letting you stay in their park. I have reviewed this park each of the 3 times I've stayed, and the numbers are going down. It is beautiful, the grounds are well kept, the facilities are great (although we all miss the Irish Pub), but I really notice the "attitude". And, as my wife says, if I notice it, it must be really bad. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved this resort. Last year when we first became full-timers, this was our first stop. We spent six-weeks here and did not want to leave. It is clean, friendly with large paved sites, large paved roads. It has two pool areas (one is only for those over 16 years of age – the other for families). It has all the amenities that you could want from a resort and it is extremely affordable. Plus, this area of Texas is so beautiful. Kerrville is a lovely little town with a great river running through. The resort is about 20 miles from historic Fredricksburg and an hour from San Antonio. There is caught and release fishing on site. The grounds are very well kept. Plus, for any of your RV maintenance needs, they have contracts with service providers who will come to you – not the other way around. We plan to return there this summer.

Well this is tough camping, they have everything. Besides what is listed they have great dinners on Monday evening. The Park people are excellent and work hard. The guests are friendly, except Snow Birds, they might consider going back north. Texans are very sensitive and should be treated politely. PS I am still looking for the lake, a small stream but no lake? We camped here in a Motorhome.

One of the few parks that really justify a 10 notwithstanding the three-foot snake that meandered by our RV shortly after we arrived (remember, this is rural Texas and the snakes were here first). Exceptional facilities that were obviously designed by an architect, not cobbled together by the usual do-it-yourself RV park owner. Wide sites, concrete pads and paved roads. A bit too close to the freeway (take a half point off the rating) but not too bad. Good WiFi. Suitable for a long stay. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We just got back from a great weekend there. It was our 2nd time out in our RV and this place was clean, friendly, and convenient to many things in the area. We have kids and they said it was a great vacation! They loved fishing in the lake, swimming in the clean pool, and meeting new friends! We will keep this on our go back to list!

A++++ Highly recommended! One of the nicest (if not the nicest) parks we've stayed in! They have paved roads, paved sites with FULL hookups (even dual-water!) Instant-on phones, free WI-FI, the owners obviously spared no expense on this park! We could LIVE there! They have a stocked stream full of turtles, bass, and catfish. Lots of ducks roaming around. The staff was excellent to say the least! They have a small bar/restaurant that serves excellent Irish cuisine and cuisine native to the area like friend catfish, shrimp, etc. In short this park makes you forget you're in Texas!

Cleanest and best maintained park we have ever visited. We make a point of staying there at least once every year as we travel throughout Texas. Quiet park with level concrete pads, park store, immaculate restrooms and showers, pools, spas, breakfast and dinner. They have a reserved area for adults only that we frequent for a tad more quiet even though we have never witnessed any rowdy kids anywhere in the park. This park sets the standard for all others to follow. All staff have always been friendly and helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I don't see how anyone could complain about this place ("executive area" or lack of an actual "Lake"???). One of the best parks we have ever stayed in - anywhere - period!!! We live close and camp here a couple of time each summer just for fun, to link up with friends traveling through the area, or to use the pool when it hot (and it's always hot down here). Very well done, no expense spared here. Paved roads, nice sites, 1st class hook up's, nice people, convenient to the highway. I think it's the best stop between San Antonio and El Paso.

Being fulltimers we can't say enough about this resort. Owners are there daily ready to meet your every need. Resort is super clean everywhere. Sites are large,paved and well spaced. They have great home cooked meals for $5-7, activities and 3 movies nightly on your tv. What more could you want?? Ah yes, pets!! This place is heaven for animals. And they provide pick up bags!! Lots of room to walk your pet and enjoy the surroundings. The staff is super friendly and willing to help with anything you throw at them. Really the greatest place for the buck!!

Very nice pet friendly park with lots of exercise space. Wi-Fi available for additional charge, good connection. Rates do vary depending on who checks you in, contrary to another viewers comments. Brother stayed there part of the time we were there. He stayed in 'executive' area with a 'free' upgrade paying lower site rates - he owns a Prevost. Executive area suppose to be adults only, but children were allowed, again depending on who checks you in. We had nice back in site with open pasture at back for a good dog exercise area.

Read last review and sounds like disgruntled employee posted it. We have camped there
often this summer and talked to many of campers there and found we all paid the same. We have stayed in different type sites there and paid accordingly. Trees are limited but then this is a new campground and trees need time to grow and mature. True there is no lake but there is stocked fishing available. The owners were campers before owners and love to come around and visit with campers there. Last reviewer needs to go elsewhere if they think they were so
mistreated. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Restrooms were very clean and handicapped assesible with seats in each of the showers. Two pools, one for adults, one for family makes it nice for everyone.

What a delight! This is a new park, about 2 years old, but well-laid out, attractive, spacious, and staffed by folks whose attitude is: "what can we do for you". The park is close to I-10 with an easy exit and ample entrance/registration room. Staff serves about five tasty specialty meals a week for a nominal price,in a beautiful stone barn, also a great feature for rallies. We stayed 9 days and were not "bothered" by the large number of rally folks in for 5 days. The park is dog friendly, with believe it or not, conscientious dog owners! There are two pools, etc., a park area, swan families in the fishing lakes, a nice store, and at present, before expansion is completed from about 130 sites to 225, plenty of exercise room in a pasture for dogs. Kerrville is about 6 miles away and Fredericksburg, about 25--both are fun and interesting towns to visit. Late April weather was warm in the mornings, but faired off to lovely afternoons and evenings. It is by far the nicest camping experience we've had in 5 years of fulltiming. The owners are in the hospitality business and their attitude begets good campers' attitudes. Don't miss it! Bring your manners when you come, because this doesn't come around often! We camped here in a camper.

Returned after 9 months away. Great campground and constantly improving from last year's visit. Staff is top notch and addresses problems immediately If you notify them of an issue. These people step up to create a very nice, quiet area with many things to do if you wish to participate. The island is a big draw for fishing and bird watching. A hiking trail is a nice touch. Park security watch has been added since last year and that helps control non-guest visitors. Will keep coming back here yearly. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped here for 3 months and nightly rate reflects monthly rate. The park is clean, quiet and relaxing. The back in sites on the river give a view of the water and an island in the river that is used for tent camping, where we saw deer meandering many times. We spent some time on the island relaxing and were not aware of any undesirable traffic to the island through the park as previously mentioned. The management is friendly, helpful, and is working to upgrade the park. They are also very accommodating...we saw other campers moved around the park to get just the site they wanted. This is a good park for an overnight stay or to camp for awhile. There is fishing in the river, and lots of places for walking and exploring if you are looking for quality downtime. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We camped here for over 2 months and found the managers/staff to be very accommodating. We had a site that backed right up to the river. We enjoyed looking out and seeing blue heron and deer roaming the island out in the middle of the Guadalupe River. The workcampers were very helpful and the tamales made by the management team were delicious. This is a quiet park with a very relaxed atmosphere. We will definitely return.

First let me state the the 2 managers of the park are super accommodating and kind to a fault. There are rules in the park but no one obeys them. The river sites slope to toward the river so bring your blocks if you own a big rig. The park has severe high voltage problems. My surge protector shut off 5 time at 132v.(5 times that I know of). The homes parallel to the park all have dogs and they bark all day long. Dogs are left tied up outside all day in the park. Unregistered undesirable people come through the park and go to the island all day and night. Sites are grass for the most part. Management is aware of all these problems. The permanent (many) residents were very friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Low nightly rate is based on their monthly rate. We stayed for a month with the Guadalupe River view out the back wheel of our Fifth Wheel. The owners and residents were friendly and courteous. With excellent free WiFi, we could stay in touch with family and friends. Cable was standard (13 channels) and free. Good view of southern sky for our satellite dish.

We spent 2 months there and would return tomorrow if possible. The river is scenic, plenty of activities for people who wish to be social. If something is not working, they take care of it immediately. The staff there is top rate and very generous with their time. Would love to stay but forced to return to Ohio.

We stayed one month. During one week one unit was kicked out because of reckless DUI driving, a couple had to be rescued by emergency service because they were locked in their unit injured,reportedly intoxicated, one unit let trash blow all over after a drinking party. Club house was closed for 4 days for use by a small private group of campers. Only half of the dryers worked. Park need to decide if they want senior wintering Texans or full time boozers.

Deer came up right behind our camp site at night. Wish we would have known about this little gem of a park, we would have stayed longer during our vacation. Restrooms are very clean. They even have an adult only restroom and pool area. I highly recommend this park! We will stay here again if passing through this part of Texas. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Good solid park, however, it doesnt quite live up to the hype, maybe because the water in the river was very low.

Beautiful campground on the river with a "park within the park," i.e.,a large area with tall trees, swings for a leisurely respite, grass, and the waterfront of the river. Close to the state park where you can tube down the river as well as activities in Kerrville. (We went to the music festival which is on for about a month) I would definitely recommend.

We were with a large group with families - lots of kids. We were not able to get sites together. One of the main reasons we chose this campground was the indoor pool and game room. The website didn't mention that the pool was only open to kids for three hours per day. We walked by several times later in the day and never saw adults in there. Seems like they could have made an exception during spring break considering there were so many kids. The game room was from the 80's - our kids spent about five minutes in there. We ended up with a site right by the VERY BUSY highway. We went to Wal-Mart & bought a fan to help with the noise so we could sleep. It's a beautiful campground but not serene. It's quieter at my house in Dallas. We typically camp in state parks so this was a huge disappointment. While yes they do have amenities for kids, it's not a very kid-friendly campground. None of the 10+ families in our group would recommend this campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Consistently clean park to which we continue to return. The park was near capacity, yet the staff was friendly and helpful (more so than our previous stay). We were there with two other families, but weren't able to get sites very close to each other. This could have been due to our late reservation planning, but there were also empty sites between where the three of us were assigned. Great playground for the kids, and the indoor heated pool (limited hours for kids) is a big draw for us and others with smaller kids when the weather is less than desirable. We will return again.

What a gorgeous resort! We were unable to get a waterfront spot as we picked this place the day before we arrived, but even in the second row we had a stunning view of the Guadalupe River. They escort you to your site, and offer any help you may need with directions, hookups, etc. The park has deer feeders on each side of it between the parking and the river, so there were deer walking not 50 feet from us all evening. They even told us at check-in that our pets could walk without a leash once they were by the river if they were well socialized and would not cause a problem. There was an abundance of shade trees. We don't have children, but the children's areas were clean and much nicer than at other sites. We can't wait to come back to this resort and spend more time there on our next trip. By far the nicest park we have seen. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Park has three pools, two outside - one family and one adult and an adult-only indoor pool. They are allowing children in the indoor adult-only pool from 11am to 2pm. No where in their website or brochure do they tell you this. I chose this park in particular because it had an adult-only indoor pool. There's no park supervision at pool and children in diapers are going in the pool (which probably is why its so cloudy after the kids leave), running, jumping, screaming, etc. I will not come back to this park. They need to decide whether they want kids or adults. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is every bit as good as the other reviews have suggested. Upon arrival, we were led to our site and assisted with backing in. Then, while I was setting the chocks and unhooking they showed up with a load of firewood that had been left at a nearby site! It was very cold that day, and this was very welcome. The grounds are very well maintained, and the river access, was beautiful. This is a very large park, yet everything was ran great. The staff was helpful and courteous. It was easy to see why everyone we met had been coming there several years in a row. We will definitely be back! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Park is excellent, however the new owners and staff are not customer oriented (see below). Electric is not included in the monthly rate, cable is extra. So for the $420 site fee (for water and sewer)plus $30 cable fee plus electric which is metered (ours cost us $60, an overcharge in our book)= $510 approximately, the campground was NOT worth it. Our site, in the newer section, was level, but we had asked for shade - not trees - and be close to the pet walk - NOT. So we walked our pet on the river park - which was beautiful, except for the droppings of other pets that had not been picked up, or the fact that other owners let their pet off leash in the area. Also, our electric meter was broken and was not discovered until our checkout. Instead of coming to an equitable solution, since we did not use our AC, and ran fridge and water heater on propane, we felt that $60 was way too much for the 3 weeks we spent there. The owner said the meter was read and that was what we owed. You could not argue with him. He did not care that it was broken. We paid, but we won't be back. Note:We had paid for electric at another park and the rate was the same 12 cents KW and it was $15 there - and we used the AC at that park. Just be cautious when staying there. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Second trip to this park in a year, and we will return again. This year (2008), they modified their pool rules and now allow children in the heated indoor pool during certain hours. It was a great change, and the main reason we returned there in the cold weather. Sites are clean and level, and the greenbelt to the river is nice. They have added a deer feeder, and we saw numerous animals over a long weekend. We were bumped from our originally selected (when reservation was made) site by a long term camper wanting the same one, so we understood. Drawback was that we were shuffled away from sight of the playground. Weather was so cold that we only utilized the playground once or twice. Instead, we took advantage of their awesome 6,000 square foot indoor/outdoor pavilion that was heated. Kids rode scooters and played with a soccer ball in a controlled environment when it was below freezing outside. Only negative to report was a WiFi signal so weak we couldn't access the internet or emails. It worked fine on our last trip there, so I assume it was just our distance from the signal. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The nightly rate is based upon a one month stay including electric costs which are paid separately. This is a great RV Park in a Great Small City of approximately 20k. There are more quality restaurants in Kerrville than any other town of this size we have visited. The quality of the staff hired is outstanding. They are accommodating and friendly. When we leave here, this is the type of park we want to go to. We fulltime, and we will return here again and again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Long pull-through sites with grass, concrete patio w/table are nice. Our site was paved, but contrary to other posts, we did see some gravel sites in one area of the park. The free WIFI consists of two systems ...one was very weak at our site. The stronger one still dropped the connection from time to time, and was via a system called CoachConnect, which required a second log-in to use a web browser. Sometimes the second log-in would not happen, and when it did it NEVER re-directed us to our original web page as it indicated it would. The park is nice enough, but we felt their regular prices are way beyond reason. We were here with a large rally group that had negotiated a lower price for the group. We would never pay their normal rates, but then again, we have no interest in two pools and the typical other "destination" park add-ons. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here, with a riverview site, in a travel trailer for the 4th of July weekend & we plan on making this an annual tradition. This resort is very clean and the view from the sites down to the river is beautiful with a lush green lawn, lots of trees, swings, a playground and a small outdoor amphitheater. There is a saloon and rental cabins, as well as a swimming pool for families and one for adults only. There is a gameroom, clean laundry facilities and the staff is more than friendly. Free wi-fi throughout and cable for an extra $3/night. I highly recommend this resort and cannot wait to return. We only wish there was one this nice closer to our home. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Other than the fact that it rained every day we were there with flash flood warnings this is a great park. All facilities are as listed on website. Only had one problem with the free Wi-Fi, and not sure if it was my computer or the signal itself. My wife really loved Kerrville and Fredricksburg and I liked the centralized location for my planned activities (motorcycle riding). Too bad the rain kept me from my plans. Really enjoyed the Memorial Day party, (Sunday night), they provided a band and a free bar-b-q, even though we had to stay under an umbrella. Overall, very impressed and will go back in a "New York minute". We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Beautifully manicured park with a well-kept greenbelt of 100 yards between the RV sites and the river. There are also nice walking trails all along the river and greenbelt area. The playground, suspension bridge and tree-house were great for the kids. The only kid-friendly pool was outdoors and unheated. We loved the park, but were disappointed and discounted the rating because the only heated pool is for adults only. The RV site was level, but there was a pot-hole where our king-pin stabilizer needed to be placed. We will definitely return, but will wait until the water warms up so the kids can swim. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

From the name of the campground, you would think that you could have some "river fun" here, but the water facilities are very limited. This campground is more suited to retirees than families, so take that under consideration. All of the facilities were clean, well kept and close to the campsites. Very nice for "Winter Texans" (I would rate it 10 out of 10) but not so great for families with kid (hence, my lower rating). We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed here for the whole month of March. This is and excellent park, well cared for, and very friendly employees. They have three swimming pools, one of which is heated and indoors for adults only. In the same building is a hot tub, steam room, sauna, exercise equipment, showers, and laundry. There are also three other laundrys and bathrooms located in the park. The sites are very roomy and well kept. No seasonals that are obvious except for about a dozen new and well kept park models around the outside of the back row. There is even an onsite "River Rock Saloon" which has a happy hour each day and live western entertainment on Saturday evenings. All in all, a VERY nice place to stay for a long term or winter. Central to many Hill Country attractions. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice park with treed area (Premium lots...where we stayed) and larger areas of typical pull thru slots with nice landscaping but few trees. This place has a great bar with live entertainment (supposedly the only RV park in Texas with a liquor license) and we really enjoyed the bands provided on Friday and Saturday nights. The "river" was almost non-existent due to drought, but there was enough water to create dams and your own mini-swimming holes. This kept our three kids occupied for hours. There is also a kids' pool area AND an adult pool/spa area. Only complaint here is that some visitors insisted on bringing their screaming kids to the adult area even though numerous signs saying "ADULT POOL ONLY" were posted throughout the area. Guess they couldn't read...We really enjoyed our entire Labor Day weekend stay with the exception of one thing - do not stay in Premium Lot 34 unless you have a sleeping mask. The extremely bright security light shines directly into/onto your RV in this location making it nearly impossible to sleep. After spending the entire first night trying to sleep with the interior of our coach lit up like high noon, I finally found a pillow to shove in the bedroom skylight to block some of the light. The lounge/sleeping area for the kids was so bright I could have cooked a meal at 3 am without turning on the lights. Luckily, the kids can sleep through anything. I, on the other hand, was totally miserable until I found the pillow. Two requests to the front desk to turn off the light were ignored. A request to change lots was met with "we're full". That was not true. The lot next to us (on the other side of the security light with less direct exposure) was empty during our entire 4 day stay. Numerous other lots were also empty. After finding the pillow solution, we decided to stay in 34 rather than picking everything up and relocating but it was still not a pleasant sleeping experience. Other than that, we would definitely recommend this park for people with families. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We had camped at this park previously with no problems. Over the Memorial Day weekend of
2004 we had problems. I reserved a shady spot on the old side in advance. Upon checkin we were assigned the only sunny spot in the old section. We opted to move to section 2 for a pullthru site with shade and giveup the larger site and view. Section 2 sites are lower in price, however, we were promised a refund and when I went to the office to get the refund I was informed that I would not get a refund after all since I was charged the published rate prior to discounts. The staff was not helpful. They shouldn't advertise a playground because one overgrown grass field with a basketball goal is not a playground. The pool that children are allowed to use if adjacent to the park clubhouse. However, the whole time we were there the clubhouse was rented to a family reunion and we could not use the clubhouse. Because of the family reunion, no other guests could use the shuffleboard or horse shoe games. That should be changed. Our children were then using their own skateboards as entertainment due to these restrictions and they were told by management that they couldn't ride their skateboards. The park could be nice, however, they need to make some improvements to become kid friendly and more accomodating to all customers not just the large all adult group gatherings. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Not a bad park, but some things need to be improved. Maintenance seems to be lacking. Never
ever been to a RV "Resort" that the store and office closes at 5:30 pm and dosn't open until 9:00 am! Riverfront sites (which we had) are 300 plus feet from the water, so I really don't consider this waterfront. The park caters to long term RV'ers and gives them preference when making a reservation so you might not get the site you want if it is taken by a long termer. A lot of the restroom facilities were locked during the early evening each day forcing you to go farther to find one that was not locked. The indoor pool and spa room smelled like sewer the whole time we were there and the sauna was broken. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

My husband and I have stayed here 4 times. Each time was exceptional. We saw deer everyday walking around grazing. They have an indoor heated pool, sauna, and hot tub. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. The new expansion area is stil
being developed with landscaping. The trees are not quite high enough for shade yet. All sites have patios and grills. The original area has plenty of shade and beautiful landscaping. Walking trail around campground and down by the Guadalupe River with tree swings along the way. Big rig friendly. Plenty of room for our triple slide. Will be staying there again and again. We are in a 36' Cedar Creek Custom fifth wheel. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Excellent facility, clean, well kept, with good staff people that make you feel really welcome. Three pools (including one indoor for adults only) spa area with hottub, steam room, dry sauna and excercise equipment, open clubhouse with kitchen, giant screen tv and fireplace. Internet modem in clubhouse but local ISP service available with telephone hookup at every site. 3/4 mile river side parkway with lots of great photo sites and fishing sites. We go twice a year (spring and fall) for a week at a time and wish it could be more often. We camped here in a camper.

This park is down a two lane road a couple miles from the Interstate, watch for it on the left. It is in front of a gas station/mini mart. The sites are paved and adequate size. It is very good for a night or two but staying long term may have some store traffic issue. It probably represents one of the better values in the Hill Country. We would stay here again.

Welcome relief after spending 4 months at the "plush" Buckhorn Lake Resort. Unlike Buckhorn this park has a very extensive Cable channel network. Sites were a bit muddy and standing water in the one I was in, after Ice storm hit this area. I would return here in a heartbeat. Staff very friendly & helpful. They sell gasoline, diesel & propane at very reasonable prices with a well stocked store on site. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A wide spot in the road, made into a gravel, level, area in a very pretty part of Texas. Sites were level, but due to the landscaping (or lack thereof), they spilled into one another. Seemed to be many who stayed for a week or more, but we were on our way through. The next time through we stayed closer to I-10 at Buckhorn (more $$, but you get what you pay for). We camped here in a Motorhome.

For the price it is really a ten. The deer come to your site in the afternoons...and I mean to your site. My wife, from Alabama, saw her first jack rabbit and there are some of the most interesting cedar trees you have ever seen. We stayed on the side away from the river because more wildlife is on this side, including antelope. We will be back this fall when the deer have horns. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped here for one night in March 2008 as a stopover between Goose Island State Park, TX and Brantley Lake State Park NM. It was our second time camping here. The park is beautiful with great walking trails and good biking. On this trip, Spring Break was in progress so the park was full of families. The large number of people presented no problem whatsoever although parks take on a completely appearance and dynamic when they are full versus when they are half empty. Besides being a great park for hiking and biking, it is close to shopping and golf and also to Fredericksburg (25 minutes) and San Antonio (one hour). We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a Texas Hill Country setting at its finest. We stayed in the "hillside" area of the park and enjoyed a spacious site and abundant wildlife. The park is clean and really a pristine setting. The staff is courteous, polite, and informative. The "riverside" area is great for the water lovers and includes a great playground area for the little ones. This is a Texas "top ten" park.

Kerrville-Schreiner was our first stay of any length, six nights in our new fifth wheel. We had researched it and the reviews we saw were bang-on. This park is excellent. In April, the weather is warm. The hiking trails were extensive and wonderful. The city of Kerrville is five minutes away and has lots of shopping, golf, wi-fi, etc. Deer visit the campsites at least once a day. The sites are large with plenty of shade, good for our golden retriever. We camped on the side farther from the river as was recommended to us. Although not a state park, this is a great place to camp. Hill country is beautiful and Fredericksburg, 30 minutes away, is a must-see. We drove into San Antonio to see the Alamo and tour Riverwalk. It was only one hour's drive to those spots and they are well worth visiting. Biking in this park is easy and very enjoyable. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is another example of the quality of state parks built by Texas. We stayed in the Deer Run section. Grandkids came for two nights and loved feeding the deer, some of whom would come almost close enough to touch. The park is immaculate, the staff is friendly and the setting is the hill country at its best. Bathrooms are very clean and it is quiet at night. When we stay here, year after year, we stay for at least five days. The city of Kerrville is quite close and has one of the best Luby's I have ever seen. I can't say enough about how much we like this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have stayed here on several occasions, and this park was a Texas State Park, but is now run by the City of Kerrville. Great park, in 2 sections, across a road. There is the river side, and the hill side. We always like the hill side best, More room, deer in campsite. They have upgraded from the state park, to have almost all sewer sites. The river has been cleaned up, and a fishing dock added. This is a place to bring your dog/kids to go camping, a real family campground. There is a daily entrance fee of $3 for over 12 years old. Your state park pass is still valid to get in for free. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stayed here to escape Hurricane Ike. Moved here from Kerrville Schreiner park in order to have cable TV and internet. Stayed a week. This is a 55+ park but we were welcomed. Very friendly staff. Sites are very very small. This said we enjoyed our stay. Our two large dogs were not a problem. The mostly full time residents made us feel welcome. Although I will definitely stay here again, it would only be when I could stay more than just overnight since parking can be challenging in these very tight spots. There is a very nice public park on the river that you can walk to to walk the dogs or just enjoy the river that is just behind the RV park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
