Rio Guadalupe Resort

We were here for a week in our RV and enjoyed our stay. Lots of big trees for shade and NO stickers. They have alot of rules, however you must understand that all kinds of people come to the area and there is ALOT of drinking by some. We didn’t like the fact that our dogs couldn’t stay. Our vehicle broke down while here and they were very understanding about the need for a different vehicle while our’s was at the Chevy house. We also rented tubes from Rio Raft, which in on property, and they didn’t have a time frame for return because we were staying here. Therefore we didn’t need to hurry down the river because we could return them the next day

We camped here with hopes of riding some of their duckies down the Guadalupe the next day. Unfortunately, the river was too low due to drought, and we’d spent enough time walking boats down the Rio Grande in the past week.
As for the campsite itself, there are cabins available, and it appears that all campsites include RV hookups, whether you have an RV or not (we didn’t). There is a restroom, as well as heated showers. The showers are free to use, despite coin slot machines on the outside walls. The theory is they didn’t use to cater so heavily to RVs, but now that they do, the showers are free.
We were very amused by the signs on the bathroom doors that read «DO NOT CLEAN FISH IN THE RESTROOMS». Haha. Don’t you just love having to warn people not to do something they obviously shouldn’t be doing? Also, there were several recycling bins by the restrooms, which I found to be a refreshing touch. Price must have been reasonable because I wasn’t asked to chip in, although I was at other campsites we frequented.
There is a well-​stocked general store, and you can rent tubes, rafts, boats, etc. to take down the Guadalupe. They also sell some boats. Definitely a worthwhile campground, a short drive from nearby San Antonio.

Get spot on the Guad. You need to outfit your cabin with food and cooking utensils, but you can’t beat the location and the staff is very helpful. We spend every New Years there.
