Established 1996, The farm is situated just minutes from Magnolia-Silos, the Dr. Pepper museum, Baylor University, the Texas Ranger museum, BSR Waterpark, the Waco Mammoth National Monument (US National Park Service), and plenty of magnificent restaurants.
There are no power lines over the property so I invite you to bring a kite to fly! You may even see one or two of mine in the sky. The theme of Coyote Creek Farm is tranquility. It is camping without someone crowding into your space. It is freedom from the hectic pace of the city.
There is a well maintained Compost Toilet on the property as well! Each individual campsite has a portable potty bucket provided. Nearly any spot you are on has an amazingly delightful view. You can see the sun rise over the trees or the sun set behind a gently sloping hill. You will have access to all of the 30 acres. There are paths to walk, a stocked tank to fish in, (bass, catfish and blue gill), and oak and pecan trees to sit under and view the clouds as they drift overhead. The noises you hear will be cattle calling to their little ones, birds singing, and in the evenings, coyotes howling.

Nature and wildlife filled with fun and relaxation, Bee Mountain River Resort is a one-of-a-kind property. Private, spacious and beautiful, we are blessed with 1.5 miles of sandy beaches along the Brazos River where campers leave the stress and white noise of life’s hectic pace behind.
Visitors enjoy our quiet and beautiful surroundings along with the good company of family and friends. And best of all, you get to play on some of the finest water in Texas for boating, fishing and water sports. Adults and kids love it here because it’s a great place to hang out, to be active, and to have some good old fashion fun. Our customers are usually groups of friends and family; many of them have camped here for years. A few even claim to have grown up on the river and, to some extent, that might be true. Bee Mountain Resort is a secluded off-the-grid campground that's been around since the '70s. And it's pretty well known to the locals.
I first discovered the Brazos River back in 1985 looking for smooth water to ski on. And having developed so many great memories camping over the years, I can confidently say our resort is classic and old school. Change comes pretty slow on the Brazos.....and we happen to like it that way! Family, friends, kids and pets all love our amazing getaway; it's a rare gem best shared with good people.
Every campsite is located directly on the river and all of them are huge. Firewood, ice, kayaks, paddleboards and generators are available at low prices. Great tasting water from our 500' deep well, clean restrooms and a camper dump station are located on premises. We are very pet friendly providing your pet is friendly.

Our first time camping at this campground, and we absolutely loved it! The photos don't do the scenery justice—it was even more beautiful in person.
My wife and I had an amazing, peaceful getaway. We enjoyed kayaking on the river, relaxing by the campsite, and taking in the quiet nights under the stars. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and very helpful throughout our stay.
We'll definitely be coming back and hope to reserve the same campsite again when it's available. Highly recommend this campground to anyone looking for a relaxing outdoor experience!- Oscar & Lupita

Barry was an incredible host. His land is absolutely beautiful and peaceful, with such a welcoming energy. From the moment I arrived, he made me feel right at home. He genuinely cares about his guests and goes above and beyond to create a memorable experience. Sitting around listening to him play music and sing only added to the charm and made the stay feel incredibly special.
If you’re looking for a place to disconnect, relax, and have a one-of-a-kind experience, this is the spot. I left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already looking forward to coming back.

What a fantastic experience. The property was very cool and interesting. You can walk down to the lake to swim or take a boat out (I think that they have ones you can rent). The tent I stayed in was roomie and even though it was hot this time of year in Texas , they had fans to get the air flowing and it wasn’t an issue for me at all. As a bonus, we got to hang out by the campfire and listen to some homemade music. I think Berry the host was a pretty special person and hanging out by the fire it was really cool way to get to meet other travelers and some of his friends.

Really awesome place, beautiful property. I really enjoyed the reclaimed and colorful aesthetic. One of the best hosts ever; super laid back, friendly, and very helpful. I initially asked for a primitive site and a pop up storm hit; the owner was quick to put me in a camper at no extra cost. The community areas were awesome to have; full amenities all the way around readily available regardless of what campsite you chose, laundry, showers, and toilets are still readily available. Clean and comfortable stay. 10 out of 10 stars, glowing review; one of the best travel stay experiences I've ever had.

Drove the Brinkley Z2810 up from San Antonio. Met up with Father and Bro-in-law from Dallas. Beautiful drive into Tony’s place. Low canopy on the way in, but light brush that doesn’t harm the fifth wheel. Met Melanie upon arrival at 7pm, super nice. Met Tony on Friday - he works weekends. Super nice. Gorgeous place. Was in spot 5. The absolute perfect spot. Bring an inverter generator, fill a fresh water tank upon arrival. Try to post up in the shade. River fishing was a dud, wish we brought a raft to hit the other side. They actually may have some for rent. Lots of boating traffic, surprisingly, but not intrusive. Watch for fire ants. If you are a road biker, the road is awesome for a shaded ride. Almost a tunnel of trees. Smooth for cycling tires after you get away from the entry to the camp - head towards Rio Vista. Would definitely go back!

Beautiful property sites are big clean and long. River was also nice. We couldn’t have asked for a nice area to call our home for a couple of days. Our only issue was the trees being too low so we had to move over to the next site and park further away so we couldn’t hook up to sewer. Our Verizon cell service was also spotty. We did enjoy the area. We visited Mammoth Monument National Park, Heritage park and the Dr Pepper museum. We enjoyed our stay and we definitely recommend it.
