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!

We had a great time at Boulderdash! Carol-Anne was a great host, very helpful and made us feel welcome. The sites and the bathrooms were clean. The RV pad was easy to access. The river is a short walk and fun to explore. Great weekend all around. Thank you for being great hosts!

2 nights at Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

I would definitely consider myself an avid outdoorsman/camper, and let me tell you that I am glad that I found this spot. This location has everything you need, restrooms, community sink, and amazing access to the river. The campgrounds are very clean, and the RV sites are perfect. Carol Ann and Lyn put their passion for camping and traveling into their property. And it shows. These people made us feel like we were family, and honestly just want you to have a great experience while you’re at Boulderdash. If I could give this place 10 stars I gladly would. Thank you all very much me and my family, Hope to see you all soon again!

2 nights at Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Been to so many camp sites and Sparrow Bend is by far the best!! Clean amenities, spacious campsites, and the most gorgeous view. Sparrow Bend sets a high standard. It's hard to camp anywhere else without wanting to compare. It's doesn't get better, especially at such a reasonable price. Will be coming back over and over and over <3

3 nights at Angela L'S Land

Enjoyed the campsite we were at. Felt quite private with plenty of trees around. Angela was a friendly host! Horses were a plus :)

Weekend Trip to Lost Woods

Pretty nice place close to stores so if its your first time camping this would be a great place. Goats were interesting to see and overall trails were nice. Campsite 3 was perfect to drive into without any issues.

Weekend Trip to Sound Ground (fka Reverse Pioneers)

Was like a fairy forest. Stone lined drive and site. Lovely!

Weekend Trip to 3 Dry Wells Ranch

Beautiful site. Very private. Excellent host. 10/10!

Weekend Trip to 3 Dry Wells Ranch

Great spot that had no other camp spots nearby. Pretty views overlooking hills and the spot for tents was nicely done with easy dirt and no rock.

Weekend Trip to Lost Woods

Great spot for our camping needs! Able to back right in to the spot and view the campfire from my truck bed tent. A little pricey for basically no amenities but overall a great site for or needs. You can hear the traffic nonstop but what do you expect from a campsite so close to the city. We will definitely return in the future.

Weekend Trip to Sparrow Bend River Retreat

My group & I loved camping here. It was beautiful, hosts were quick to respond/helpful when needed, amenities were better than expected! Outdoor showers/sink/bathrooms were nice. The space was also bigger than we expected. Only thing I'd recommend is to bring some ear plugs if you're a light sleeper. The dogs in the neighborhood would bark occasionally in the night/early AM and any sounds echo from the river canyon. It wasn't a deal-breaker but ear plugs made all the difference in sleep quality. Also, even though the river was low, the water was refreshing/clean & we were able to swim plenty (perfect for floats/paddleboards). Overall, a wonderful experience & we look forward to coming back!
