Fredericksburg, TX · 3 sites · Tents, RVs
Fifty acres of untouched Texas Hill Country on a private hilltop in Fredericksburg — where the land has never been farmed, the views go on forever, and the night sky will stop you in your tracks.
Farmopathy Hill Country is a faith-rooted wellness and regenerative land experience managed under a formal wildlife exemption. The property is home to ancient native plants — agarita, prickly pear, Texas persimmon, and live oak — and abundant Hill Country wildlife. Two private RV sites sit on different parts of the property, each with its own character.
Stay and simply unplug. Or go deeper — book a personal training session with Ray in our private studio, a wellness coaching session with Heather, a guided native plant walk, or a farm breakfast made with local Hill Country ingredients.
20 minutes from Main Street Fredericksburg. 15 minutes from Enchanted Rock State Natural Area. 1 hour from San Antonio. 1.5 hours from Austin. An experience you won’t find anywhere else in the Hill Country.

Memmie’s Farm is a special 30 acres just outside of Bandera, TX on the Medina River! We hope bring love and energy to this beautiful piece of family property by opening it up to visitors who embrace the outdoors.
At the designated tent camping sites, you will find oak groves that provide opportunities for shade. The RV sites are in a picturesque field that provides excellent views of the sunset. The field leads down to incredible cypress trees lining the Medina River. We also have a primitive camping area down by the river that requires you to park in a parking area and walk to your preferred camping spot.
If you are looking for solitude and untouched nature, this is the place for you. The comforts of Bandera are conveniently only a 5 minute drive away. We are located less than 2 miles from Bandera City Park!
At this time, all sites are completely dry. We do have porta-potties available. RV sites are boondocking only (no water or electric at this time.) Guests may stay at Memmie’s Farm for a maximum of 6 consecutive nights.
Our slice of land on the Medina River is truly gorgeous! There are beautiful cypress trees that are magical year round, and there are often small rapids. If relaxing in the shade by the river and dipping your feet in is your thing, our property is perfect for that! However, this is not a swimming hole. The Medina River is generally not considered safe in Bandera, TX, due to consistent low flow. Swim at your own risk.

HPW Ranch is a privately owned 6,000-acre ranch in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, offering a true backcountry escape for campers, hikers, and outdoor adventurers. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful retreat or a rugged outdoor experience, our ranch has something for everyone!
When staying with us, guests have access to our three privately owned lakes, perfect for fishing, paddleboarding, or kayaking (bring your own equipment) and miles of trails perfect for hiking and trail riding.
Our ranch is ideal for guests seeking a more authentic, rugged outdoor experience. While our trails are maintained regularly, they are not paved,or highly developed like the trails you may find at a state or national park. Weather conditions, especially rain, can quickly change trail conditions, so guests should expect a true Texas backcountry experience with natural terrain, scenic overlooks, and a sense of adventure.
If you’re looking for paved trails and developed campgrounds, our ranch may not be the right fit. But if you’re looking to disconnect, explore thousands of acres of private land, and experience the wild beauty of the Texas Hill Country, our ranch is the place to be.
Please note that due to our seasonal hunting operations, the ranch is closed during certain times of the year to preserve wildlife patterns and support responsible land management. If the ranch is showing available on Hipcamp, all hiking and riding trails are open for guest use during your stay. If dates appear unavailable, it means either our campsites are fully booked or the property is closed for the season. Our calendar is always kept up to date, and guests are encouraged to check availability in advance when planning their visit.

I loved my stay! I was able to take both of my dogs and they loved being able to explore, it’s a very short walk to the water and a good amount of space and privacy, the site next door was empty for the weekend so it felt like we had the area all to ourselves! There is a sink (with potable water) and a porta potty very close as well if you don’t want to go all the way up the hill to the full bathrooms. Lyn and Carol-Anne were very communicative and helpful! We will most certainly be coming back!

Absolutely Amazing! My husband and I stayed at Boulderdash RV and Camp for three nights at the end of May. We stayed in the Stella RV . Stella was so comfortable. The linens were soft and clean, Stella has everything you need from cooking a hot meal to taking a hot shower. The AC was on point and well needed after hot days by the beautiful clean and clear Medina river. Our hosts were very hospitable and kind. It was hard to leaving back to the real world. Such a beautiful and well maintained property. We can't wait to go back, hopefully for a much longer stay next time. Thank you again to our hosts Carol Anne and Lynn!

This was a fantastic spot, really beautiful scenery and property, and with the Nueces river on the way, there's easy access for swimming. The site I got was also very secluded, with lots of space between sites. For this seclusion though, do expect to drive 20-30 minutes off of any highway down dirt roads to get to your site, which can be a little tiring after a long day. Other than that, the host was incredibly nice and considerate, the directions I was sent were clear and straightforwards, and the site & property were absolutely gorgeous. Would come again!!

We loved our primitive campsite on Ashley’s property - it was exactly what we were looking for. The directions were very thorough allowing us to find our campsite easily and property is absolutely beautiful! Our campsite was private, quiet and perfect for a relaxing weekend to unwind. We thoroughly enjoyed the resident herd of bulls + donkey that wandered by and hung out to see what we were all about LOL. A couple storms rolled through the first night/morning but then after that the stargazing each night was incredible. Ashley’s communication was fantastic & she was very responsive to my questions. We had a great time and would highly recommend.

My daughters and I had a very relaxing weekend getaway at Boulderdash thanks to our thoughtful and considerate hosts! When we arrived, we were offered a different spot from the one we booked so we could have a little extra space to ourselves, and they even had farm fresh eggs and homemade sourdough available that we snatched up for the next day's breakfast. Proximity to the river was amazing and we spent a few hours on the water together, and the bathroom and shower facilities were very clean. The grounds were also in great condition, full of greenery and wild deer we could feed with some complimentary corn (both my girls were thrilled). The cherry on top was the fact that all you could hear at night was crickets, and you could see all the stars despite some clouds in the sky. It was a great experience and we look forward to staying again!

This campsite was exactly how it is advertised: very secluded and private! If that is what you're looking for, I highly recommend. If you are interested in hiking, however, I would recommend going to a national or state park instead. The trails were so overgrown that I could only go about 1.5 miles before having to head back due to the trails being blocked by rocks and trees. The actual campsite was gorgeous, though, and the directions to get to it were very clear. I drove a Kia Optima and was able to get to site #1. Pro tip: bring bug spray!!! Because this site is right on the water, there are tons of little bugs that like to swarm you. Overall great experience and wonderful host.

Went for a solo trip and tent camping at site 4 was perfect. Lots of shade which is important because sun really bears down at height of day. Bring pop up or umbrellas if you want to hang right on the river. Site 4 is tucked back and there is room for a hammock. The water is maybe a little over 4 ft at deepest along the river nearest the campsites. Lots of shallow walk in areas for the littler ones. Full of beautiful native Texas plants and critters. This place is a real gem! Will be back.

Where to go
Eastern & Northern Hill Country
If your camping trip through Texas Hill Country has time for an urban stop, put Austin on your list. The state capital marches to the beat of its own drum with the proud motto “Keep Austin Weird.” This marks the eastern edge of Hill Country.
