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!

Weekend Trip to Alamo River RV Resort

My fiancé asked to go camping for her birthday, and we settled on this place. We showed up in the dark to our tent sight because she wanted to get her hair done that day also (don't ask), and because we weren't familiar with the area, we asked a local sheriff's deputy for directions. He told us where to go, but we accidentally ended up in sight 7 instead of 1 (our fault, it was dark). We realized our mistake the next morning and called the front desk, and they were incredibly kind. We insisted we'd pack up and move, but they didn't care, as nobody else had site 7 booked. We enjoyed a great time of calm walking trails and lovely scenery. My fiancé had never seen a ring-tailed cat, but we saw one fight over a tree with a couple squirrels! (Fun to watch for me). Long story short, this is a great, calm place for RV, camper, and tent sites. Btw, site 7 for tents is the best one. It has a table, water spicket, porta-potty (very clean), and is right next to a trail entrance.

We really enjoyed being on Warren's Land. Our group consisted of 3 38' motorhomes. Warren's communication with us was quick and precise. Our motorhomes were able to be driven on the ranch roads and Warren had recently trimmed some of the tree branches. Only one branch brushed against the roof of our tallest motorhome (13'6" in height). There was a portable toilet and a BBQ grill next to where we camped. The scenery was beautiful and the coyotes were very vocal at night! This is an overlanders dream. We wish we would've had our Jeeps! We are grateful we found this gem!

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!

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.

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!
