Confirmed by 2 users | Last reported on December 30, 2023This place gets better online reviews than I'm going to give it, but I may be a bit jaded due to arriving later than we usually prefer and the recent rains in the area that turned some places into mud. We just needed an overnight, so I'm not sure my overall rating is completely fair since we didn't have any time to walk around and really check things out more thoroughly.
We had called ahead to be sure there was room, and the lady (manager?) said there was, confirmed the price, and told us how to pay if we arrived after the little office was closed (envelopes & drop box.) She did not advise us that there was a man who would great us in a 4x4, escort us to a spot, and collect the cash. He got us into a dry pull-thru, which was helpful since the layout of the park was almost impossible to decipher. Our nose faced the side of another camper, and a different camper's nose faced our side. Weird! But we had full hook-ups, which is what we needed so we could get started on a mountain of laundry.
There was almost no cell reception (Verizon) and no OATV, but the free park wifi was screaming fast which we found surprising but welcome.
The park borders a private residence where there were two small dogs in a pen and some chickens -- the rooster did what roos do in the morning, which didn't bother us at all since we used to raise chickens, but it might bother others. The little roo was also free-ranging, so if he was a meanie, that might be alarming. The dogs only barked when the host (?) would come/go, which was negligible. We weren't bothered by any people noise at all.
We saw a Schwann's truck delivering some food to other campers. :D
I am checking the box to say we'd stay here again, although obviously, it's not a first choice. But the hookups worked well, it was quiet, and that's all we needed at the time.

We stayed here 1 night Dec'19. Camp host directed us to a spot, the numbers do not make sense nor the site size. We did not need hookups, but the tent sites were muddy and down a steep slope. The bathrooms were dirty. Many full timers here in single wides. Nice river nearby, good shade trees. Host was pleasant.

Called a day in advance to reserve a spot because it can be full at times. Only 50 amp were available, but the park host let us borrow a converter. There are a few spots without big pecan trees for shade, but for the most part, everything is nice and shaded. Clean bathroom and showers available. The door does not lock, and there is not much for privacy while using the facilities. There is a washing machine and dryer, but we did not use it. The location is beautiful right on the river banks of the San Saba River. Less than 1/8th mile from the city park and dam. Great swimming and fishing. Bring some kayaks and go exploring or walk the dogs through the city park.

We arrived after dark. 42ft class A. Pulling jeep. Campground looks more like a big open field with trees as the layout is very confusing. Could not find camp host. No signs or labels. Spots not identified per county web page. We just pulled in and hooked up to an open site. Quiet and peaceful. We stayed just one night on our way to Austin, but would stay longer if needed.

Simple no frills campground. Upgrading their infrastructure with new power and water lines. Access to river. They have kayaks and bicycles for guests. Basketball net and adding volleyball court soon. Mix of 30 and 50 amp sites and not all sites are full hookup. Price is right at $20 per night for full and $15 for water and power only. If you need a quick overnight stop in this area, its an easy, safe alternative. My wife and I stay on our trips to Lubbock. Very friendly staff.
