Weekend Trip to Alamo River RV Resort

Great spot and great hosts. I really enjoyed the visit

Weekend Trip to Alamo River RV Resort

Loved this place so much! Not exactly primitive with the rvs being in view from the tent sites, but it was still nice and relaxing! Would come back!

I love the surrounding area, feels like you’re in the middle of no where. The trailer has everything we needed. We just wished that the hot water worked a little better since we love hot showers. Ace was very nice and responsive. We would definitely come back for the fire pit.

2 nights at Old Herrera Ranch - Medina River

The host Dax was incredibly informative and helpful. We had a wonderful stay and would come back again!

Weekend Trip to Old Herrera Ranch - Medina River

A solo 2-nighter trying out a new hot tent on Dax's land. It was great. Some road noise from the nearby highway but it settled down into the evening. The Medina River was walking distance and very nice. Dax was very helpful getting it all set up... and the on-site hosts Ciera and Tav were helpful and a very nice couple. I will enjoy returning for a hammock camp on the river!

Weekend Trip to Old Herrera Ranch - Medina River

Dax’s place is wonderful. We basically had the entire campsite to ourselves. We stayed at campsite 2. Years, it’s primitive as in the description, but he and his family’s history are incredible for this stretch of land. They’re are rescue dogs on property off leash, but Dax and his team made sure they were leashed during the duration of our stay to insure our fur baby had THE best time and man did he! Our son and dog played for hours down by the water which is not a bad hike, but such an adventure. Hours were spent by our pup chasing his duck in the water. Our son had enough depth to snorkel which made him ecstatic. A lot of people have made note about the highway noise…the noise was minimal and more ambient white noise than anything. Later in the evening another set of campers arrived and still felt we had the entire place to ourselves. I can not say thank you enough to Dax and his entire team for this adventure. I highly recommend this place! Be sure to bring sanitary wipes for yourself as it is primitive with only a compost toilet for #2.

Old Herrera Ranch never disappoints… Dax is amazing and the river is always a bonus! Every time we’re south (snow birds) this is one of our top stays while visiting friends in SA. Close enough to town, but also far enough distance to be away from the hustle and bustle. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Weekend Trip to Old Herrera Ranch - Medina River

I've stayed here several times on my way through to Big Bend National Park. Dax keeps making improvements every year. Great spot to relax after a long day of road trippin'!

Weekend Trip to 281 Country Club

Lots of open space. Fun time camping. Easy access to the outhouse. Good lighting around the property at night. Rented quads the next day and had a blast exploring the property. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys camping and off-roading!

Dax and this beautiful property never disappoints! Dax is the best and this is the best primitive camping! I’ll say it a million times, the river is such a blessing and our pups love it! After a night roasting hot dogs and marshmallows, it’d be shame not to mention the star gazing… wouldn’t even know you’re only 15min from town. Every time we head south from the PNW, this will always be a for sure stay for us when visiting San Antonio!

1 night at Cotulla Camp Resort

The campground was great! It was once a KOA and still is reminiscent of that. Gary, the manager was super helpful and extremely nice. There was even coin laundry on site.

Was a nice trailer. Was nice and quiet. Went during a cold snap the trailer got a bit cool at night. The fire wood is not dry very smokey and pops. Watch fire carefully.

2 nights at Old Herrera Ranch - Medina River

Had such a blast at Old Herrera with our friends. Loved exploring the river and learning some history of the land. We camped among the mesquite groves and the steward was very responsive and helpful.

22 nights at Old Herrera Ranch - Medina River

Our little slice of heaven… We come south every winter and when we are in San Antonio, there is nowhere else we’d rather stay. There is more than enough room for our fur babes to roam and the river is an added bonus! For primitive camping, the property offers ample space for multiple campers and you still feel like you have your privacy. Dax is a breeze to work with and the most punctual host we’ve ever had when communicating any and all our needs. We’re so grateful to have a place that’s not only beautiful property, it feels safe, like another home, and offers the most incredible views for sunset. In short, a few snowbirds and their two pups love Old Herrera Ranch!

Weekend Trip to We Are Groot

Set up a last-minute weekend trip to Elm Grove and enjoyed its welcoming space! We enjoyed the nature and quality time together away from our busy schedules. The campfire, cozy little RV, and twisty trees surrounding the space made for a great family weekend. A large buck even stopped by for an early morning visit. Ace was an ideal host with lots of care and consideration for your camping experience. Recommended!!

Weekend Trip to We Are Groot

Beautiful spot! Ace’s place was perfect for a weekend getaway—stocked with everything we needed, close to hiking in the hill country, and felt private in the little grove. Would love to stay again!

1 night at Old Herrera Ranch - Medina River

Dax is an excellent host who gave perfect instructions about his property! We had an amazing time hiking and exploring the property and enjoyed a nice camp fire in the evening. Excellent view of the stars and the sunset from campsite #2. Only a few minutes drive away from stores like circle K and Dollar General. We would love to stay again.

We Are Groot

2 sites · Lodging1 acre · Lakehills, TX

After a lifetime of travels, we are now (since 2019) settled down in the Texas Hill Country. We started out with 5 of us in a travel trailer in the woods, and have slowly carved out the Groot’s home. Living in an area that was once subdivided to provide camp sites for people coming to enjoy Medina lake, it only seems right to make our land available for people to do just that. Enjoy. Learn more about this land: Peace, quiet, and nature are just 30 minutes from San Antonio loop 1604. You will find our back yard travel trailer and surrounding camp site tucked away in a little forest of Elm trees. Surrounded by scrub brush and with our container workshop as a privacy wall you will enjoy the feeling of having your own space as you enjoy some relaxation around a camp fire or in the hammock. The trees offer shade and draw in nature, while the surrounding Texas Hill country and nearby Medina Lake offer plenty of additional sights and opportunities to explore.

Old Herrera Ranch - Medina River

9 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Von Ormy, TX

We're a five acre piece of an historic Texas ranch in Southwest San Antonio, just 20-minutes from downtown, sitting along the Medina River. Come for the day or stay the night for some primitive camping. We've got plenty of room for tents, roof-top-tent setups or car/van dry-camping. We’re currently in the building/restoring process, but we’ll have some electrical, drinking water, fire pits, plenty of shade, compost toilets, water in the river, and plenty of good vibes. Old Herrera Ranch has been in our family since the early 1800's and holds a lot history. A couple of our old buildings, the "jacals", are dated from around the 1830-40's. You'll also see the old "Dance Hall" which is great for hanging out or even some cover if it rains. They say that Santa Anna's army, invading from Mexico, may have crossed through our area on their way to the Alamo. This may be because our part of the river includes some of the more shallow areas of the Medina River. For more information, feel free to take a look at our page on the San Antonio Conservation Society's website https://farmandranch.omeka.net/exhibits/show/blasherreraranch We use Hipcamp to help maintain, preserve, and restore the land my family loves so deeply. We're excited to share it with you and see what all we'll be able to do. Thank you in advance for your support! Coming soon: picnic tables, benches, outdoor cooking area, South Texas Jungle Gym, Pink Elephant Cantina (BYOB), and more!
