Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

We loved Boulderdash so much! It’s so quiet and peaceful. The water was perfect for the kids. The bathrooms were beautiful and clean. There was shade in all of the spots. We loved it so much we booked our next trip back while we were still there!

Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

Boulderdash is a fantastic getaway. The hosts are just wonderful and so helpful. They have a little store where they stock ice and other stuff for sale. They will even rent a shade canopy to you so you can use it by the river. Their site was clean, and the Wi-Fi was great! We will definitely be staying there again. Travis and Raquel

Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

Carol-Anne and Lyn were incredible host and went out of their way to make us feel welcome and at home. The campground was a really sweet layout with great views, close to the water and awesome amenities. Would be an especially great spot for a big group camp

2 nights at Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Absolutely amazing! I've been coming to the area (mainly Frio River) my entire life and this place might be my favorite place I've been! We stayed in campsite #3 and it was perfect. Plenty of room between other campsites. Very clean and had a fire pit area with a picnic table. Deer came to eat every morning and evening. We saw turkey as well. Went fishing and caught bass, catfish, gar, soft shell turtle and about a million perch! Water was low, but still had the perfect amount for swimming and cooling off. Indoor bathrooms with AC is a major bonus! The cabins on the property looked great from the outside. Truly worth every penny, we'll be coming back! Easy access into the gated property, which made us feel safe knowing our stuff was safe when we left to go to town. Can't say enough good things!

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Camping spot was great! Tried to get a river spot first, but they were all booked up. Glad we ended up a Forest 1 because of the shade and close to bathrooms. Only about a 3 minute walk to the river. River was super fun. Also, short drive to Bandera which was a really cute town. Plan on returning in the future!

Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

My family love our get away trip. The camp grounds were clean and the staff was very responsive if you needed anything. We went for Memorial Day weekend and while others were fighting for space to set up and hit the water. The camp grounds were spacious and other guests were quiet and respectful. Beautiful sights from the communal observation deck. We will be returning in the future.

I stayed at forest 2 very clean, quiet and I loved the little bathrooms.

Weekend Trip to Longhorn Getaway Campgrounds

Site was clean and I was able to fit a 6 person tent with a separate shower tent next door in the sectioned off tent area under the trees. Great stay, will be booking again in the future.

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Great campsite. Very clean and there was water in the river.

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Sparrow Bend Retreat was the perfect camping getaway. Our spot was the closest to the river and we loved the short walk on a hot day. Bathrooms weren’t too far either. Definitely bring your own shade for this site as there is none. The owners are extremely nice and responsive.

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

This spot is absolutely lovely! I’ve booked it multiple times because I enjoy the shade it provides.

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

We had a great time on Angela's property! It was so beautiful and well maintained and our campsite was so spacious and nestled away from the other campsites. We loved being able to walk down to the river and swim with our puppy.

Weekend Trip to Easy Breeze

What a wonderful spot! Wes was very responsive and clear communication. The spot was so close to downtown Wimberley. It was quiet and calm. Would definitely stay here again being so close and convenient to town.

Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

Our stay at Tent Site #2 at Boulderdash Cabin & RV Park was absolutely wonderful! Carol-anne and Lyn were amazing hosts—friendly, responsive, and super thoughtful. They provided helpful tips before our arrival and made sure we had everything we needed for a great experience. The site was peaceful and well-kept, surrounded by nature and just steps from the Medina River. Even though it was a short hike to the bathrooms, we were well-prepared thanks to their clear heads-up and suggestion to bring a tent potty—especially useful since we were camping with our child. We appreciated the attention to detail, from the check-in process to on-site items like firewood and ice. The no-visitor and quiet policies helped make the space feel safe and relaxing for families. We made some great memories here and would definitely come back again. Highly recommend for anyone looking to disconnect, relax, and enjoy the outdoors!

Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

We absolutely loved our stay! We spent the weekend kid free celebrating our 13 year anniversary & couldn’t help but talk about how much the kids would have loved it! Will definitely be back sometime soon with the kids! Plenty of areas to swim or sit in the water and enjoy the absolute peacefulness of the flowing water and watching the sunset!

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Site 4 was honestly just as expected. Bit elevated view, shades, conveniently located between the river and the amenities/bathrooms. The experience at the camp was great. We went on about a 3-4 mile hike in morning. We later discovered we could take the sub wheeling down same path but went much further. It’s also great for quads. Very scenic to see the texas fauna. Bit tragic to see how the river dried up over what i expect was last decade or so but also a steady reminder of climate and change. We actually swam in an accessible part of river and it was quite refreshing i took tons of pics of the fauna, sunset, and trails. Would come back again but next time with quads. Site also had amazing showers, clean bathrooms, firewood for purchase, and even charging ports.

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed the campsite! Our 3 kids stayed in the river exploring and swimming from sun up to sun down. Beautiful river and scenery. Bathrooms and shower area was very clean and convenient. We didn’t want to leave. Will definitely be planning another camping trip to this site soon!

Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

We loved camping out at Boulderdash! The campsites were clean and well maintained. There are amenities like freshwater, WiFi, and electricity available if you’d like, but it doesn’t feel like glamping. If you forget anything, Carol-Anne and Lyn have it handy. The riverside sites are a short walk to wading in the Medina river. The kids and dogs had a blast. Campers who come here should abide by the camp’s simple rule; don’t be a jerk. We’re looking forward to coming back as soon as possible!

Weekend Trip to Longhorn Getaway Campgrounds

We had such an amazing time. The longhorns are beautiful and we can’t wait to return for disc golf.

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Great spot! We were able to test out our new overland trailer and gear in a close by, easy to access space. Being able to park at our campsite was a must have with our setup. The river is great for swimming and paddle boarding.

Easy Breeze

The property was inhabited by Donkeys and a Donkey barn and a Grey Fox family. Nice shady oaks to park your motorcycles under. Walk downtown and have pizza at Community Pizza or get some food for the grill at HEB. First Saturday of the month Market Days goes on in the daytime. Five minutes from Historic Downtown Wimberley, Texas; Blue Hole; Jacob's Well; Cypress Creek. Walking distance to Market Days or just take a soak in the tub. Secluded, but convenient with wifi. I am a motorcycle enthusiast and traveler whenever possible. My idea is to cater to riders of all kinds, If you have a need and I can help, I will. 19 miles away situated along a one-mile stretch of the spring-fed Blanco River, the small but mighty Blanco State Park is very family-friendly, offering the spectacular Falls Dam, nature trails, fishing, tubing, kayaking, and deep water for a good, refreshing swim. The stocked river is teeming with largemouth and Guadalupe bass, catfish, sunfish, and rainbow trout, and can be an excellent place for beginning anglers (you can even borrow equipment for free). Pedernales Falls State Park is only 35 miles away. Swimming at holes, horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking, and birding are a few of the quintessential outdoor Texan activities visitors enjoy most at Pedernales State Park, located near the area of Texas Hill Country where former President Lyndon B. Johnson grew up. Next to the famed Pedernales River, the park is an hour west of Austin, an hour east of Fredericksburg, and about 20 minutes from downtown Johnson City. Wineries and distilleries are a short drive away in nearby Dripping Springs and Stonewall. Pets are allowed. Please make sure you pick up after them.
