Sparrow Bend River Retreat is a beautiful 8 acre multi-site vacation rental property with camping, RV sites and 2 vacation homes. With a private 300yard stretch of the crystal-clear, spring fed MEDINA RIVER your party will spend the day exploring its majestic cliffs and coves, paddling/floating the river (tubes and kayaks for rent), splashing in the shallows, playing yard games on the lawn or sunbathing on a massive bolder. Enjoy a delicious and memorable dinner in Lakehills (15min), Bandera (20min) or Boerne (25min). Or stay in and grill out over the fire, or at the provided grill. Camp sites each have a customized picnic table for you convenience. Spend you evening sharing laughs around the provided firepit as you take in the dazzling canopy of stars. (Firewood available for sale) Our family has always dreamed of hosting a place for families and friends to come enjoy nature however we would have never dreamed of finding a property as unique and beautiful as this. A lake when the water is high, a beautiful river when the waters low. All crowned by a majestic limestone bluff, complete with boulders, coves and endless room for adventures. This land was once a part of a wagon trail along the river and, if you're lucky, you can still find arrowheads along the paths. The property is gated with a high privacy fence along the neighboring borders for security.

Great camping spot for family

Such a beautiful place. I feel the brush needed to be cut down more but that’s literally the only thing that would make this camping spot better. We truly enjoyed ourselves.

Good stop

Had site 4 and we were car camping. It worked out perfectly. Others at site 2 both RV sites were filled. Cabin was rented and large double wide was also rented and I still felt like we had plenty of privacy. Bathrooms were nice and the river beautiful. I went up to shower and there was no water called host and he answered immediately to let know of a water line break he had sent a message but I missed ir. But in less than an hour everything was working

Sparrow Bend was AMAZING. We can’t wait to go back. We camped right by the river, enjoyed a starry sky and woke up to a gorgeous hill country sunrise. Angela was a responsive host and answered all our questions right away. Thank you Angela!
