We had such a wonderful stay at Frio on the River! We ended up having the whole place to ourselves, which made it peaceful and relaxing. The property is well cared for, easy to access, and close to everything we needed. Garner State Park was just a short drive away, and there were gas stations and small shops nearby.
Kelly was absolutely incredible! She was proactive with communication and sent helpful pictures since we were arriving late after dark. She stopped by in the morning to make sure we had everything we needed, and she was such a lovely person to talk to. She made us feel welcome right away. On our way out, we discovered we had a flat tire and she even offered to help and gave us great advice about where to go. Her kindness really stood out and made the stay even better!
Even with a burn ban in effect, we were still able to cook using the small barbecue grill on site. The amenities were great — clean restroom facilities, hot showers, and thoughtful touches around the property. We loved spending time on the porch swing under the big tree, playing horseshoes and tetherball, and visiting the chickens. If you’re more of a cabin person, there are plenty on the property for big groups!
There is some traffic noise from the nearby road, so sound-sensitive guests may want to know that, but it didn’t bother us at all.
We would definitely stay here again the next time we’re in the area. Such a warm, welcoming, peaceful place!

We enjoyed our stay. Gabriela and her husband are wonderful responsive hosts who met us with smiles and literature about the area. The River Walk bike/hike trail is very close to the campground. We rode for 15 miles and had a wonderful time. We will definitely come back.

Weekend Trip to Get Your Frio On
Although my kids and I were only there for one evening and one day, we had an excellent experience. The hosts were extremely friendly and accommodating, even though our schedule for arrival changed quite a bit, and we arrived late. The cabin was clean and well stacked with the usual supplies. We would definitely returned.

This RV park is one of the best we've been to in Texas. The site was immaculate, the pool and event center were included in our stay, and there was even a river 5 mins away to walk through and enjoy. It was quite, no light pollution, and felt safe since the moment we parked. Fantastic experience and we'll certainly be back again!

This place is great. Loved that it is so remote. Our site was nice. The flowing stream is a really nice feature as well. Walking distance to a couple of great fishing spots. Caught my best bass on the fly to date, probably 4 lbs. There was not much natural shade, so glad we had our own canopy so we could enjoy the great view.

The rv spot was perfect. If you want to get away from the city and relax this is the place to stay. The night sky was amazing. Wish we could have stayed a little longer.

Great place to relax and watch the stars . I slept next to a lake with the sounds of a water fall next to me . Plenty of birds to keep me company .

***THIS CAMPSITE IS WORTH EVERY PENNY***
I tent camped at Site #1 with solar panels and a generator—absolutely perfect setup. I drive a Chrysler 300 and had no trouble getting in; just slowed down in a few spots and crossed a couple of small creeks. (It’s early August and the area has had heavy rain, so it’ll likely be even smoother when you go.)
I had the entire lake and surrounding area to myself. Total peace. Total seclusion. The hiking is incredible, with a hidden gem along the trail that’s worth every step. I only stayed one day, and I regret not booking a full week.
The host’s directions are crystal clear—if you can follow instructions, you’ll have no issues. I have three kids under five, and this place is a dream for families. Out of the 20+ places I’ve camped this summer, this is one is hands down my favorite. It’s obvious the owners genuinely care about preserving and protecting their land—you’ll see exactly what I mean the moment you arrive.
Book it. Don’t think twice.

We really enjoyed our stay at this campsite. The location is beautiful, with great views right by the lake. During our visit, the lake was overflowing into a small stream that connected to another lake down the hill—such a peaceful background sound throughout our stay.
It did rain quite a bit while we were there, so the area got a little mucky, but that didn’t take away from how much we enjoyed it.
We also took the trail up to the nearby plane crash site, which was a unique experience. Definitely recommend having a 4x4 vehicle for that one—there’s a steep 22-degree incline before you reach it, and if the trail is wet, it becomes even more challenging. Still, very cool to see the remnants of the plane.
The only thing we would have loved more is a clearer path or access point to the lake. It was pretty overgrown, and with the rain, we didn’t get the chance to explore it up close. Hopefully next time!

This was one of the best camp grounds we've ever been to. They catered to us for all our needs. And they have a bar! Who does that? Nobody.

We stayed at Camp site 2 it was off the gravel road on a little grass trail to a nice open area. it was very private and super dark to see tons of stars. We went Overlading on 3 trails. Without giving away too much the 1st purple trail was fun and calm until it got to a very steep decline that not many rigs can handle! Many vehicles can go to that point tho then hike it! Second trail was very calm but super narrow with brush/trees around! The 3rd trail without giving away too much is definitely for more experienced overlanders or hikers who can climb some harsh steps! Also on the 3rd trail I recommend walking it, driving it, then walking it again just to make sure u don’t bite off more than you can handle. You have some areas u can bust a U-turn if it’s too much but they are far apart so make sure you can handle the trail to the next clearing! It was a fun camping experience with pretty ponds and wild life.

Great ranch and I look forward booking a different site. The rain made it a little sloppy at secluded#2 and the 4Wheel drive came in handy. Great sunset and seclusion, which is what I was looking for. The only caution is the exact camp site has a lot of big red ants so I had to go down further.

This was a relaxing and enjoyable stay! The staff was friendly and laid-back, which made the experience even better. I had no trouble reversing my 27-foot travel trailer into the site—very convenient. It was the perfect place to unwind and disconnect. We made use of the pool and even played a few games of pickleball. The Wi-Fi was a great bonus and worked well for streaming movies. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway!

Quiet, peaceful, and surrounded by the splendor of Texas Hill Country. My kids particularly loved the volleyball and tetherball. We also loved the mini-pool provided right in front of our cabin. Very clean facilities, and the owners couldn't be nicer. Highly recommend!

We love everything about this campground. Hosts were amazing and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect; very good people. Grounds and cabins are well kept. We even opted to stay a day in our little pool right out our cabin door instead of the Frio, it’s that peaceful! Definitely recommend to anyone!

I loved camping here it was so secluded and private the closest campers were about a 1/2 mile away plus we had some Cow visitors!!
I really loved camping here although some things to note
We lost 2 tires on an F-150 truck in our 2 day stay here so I would definitely be careful with what vehicle you bring
Lastly the lakes were not quite what I expected but that wasn’t a problem because there are multiple access points to the Nueces river close by !
