. These are unique camping spots along the Guadalupe River. I didn’t exactly understand how unique until I started getting feedback from my campers.
The surrounding scenery will lower your blood pressure and do wonders to let you reconnect with nature. Sit back and close your eyes late in the evening and listen to all the wildlife talking to each other. There is faint traffic noise from 90A about a 1/3 of a mile away but it calms down after 7 or so.
Currently no amenities but I am in the plans for some portable bathrooms. Please be prepared to cover all your bathroom and cooking needs. I do have some good clean well water from a faucet on the way into the campgrounds.
Campfires are permitted.
There is a convenience store (Diamond A) with clean bathrooms and a great bbq just 5 miles to the west on 90A and a Walmart and HEB 10 miles to the east on 90A. (Both Diamond A and Walmart sell fishing licenses if you need one.
Dogs are allowed at sites 3 and 4 but not at 1 or 2 where my livestock guardian dogs have access to. No matter the size or temperament of your pets you are always expected to have them under your control at ALL times. I have very small livestock in the area frequently
I am almost always on the property and try to have my phone with me while campers are on site, just let me know what you need and I will do what I can to accommodate you. Please Contact me through the Hipcamp app.

Directions were easy to follow and the roads in weren’t bad at all. I stayed at Coyote Corner and it’s a nice open area with plenty of space to set up camp. There was a lot of wildlife around—saw turkeys and deer throughout the stay, which made it even better. The weather was perfect and having a full moon at night really added to the experience. My one-year-old Aussie was definitely stimulated the whole time in a good way and loved exploring. The host was very informative and helpful, which made everything smooth. I’ll definitely be back and plan to try the other site next time.

We loved this camp site! Giant pecan trees all around, the Guadelupe River flows slowly nearby. We felt a good connection to nature, the countless bird songs, and quiet nights. The access is easy and gated. There is live stock roaming around which was good for that "Feeling" .....All in all we would recommend this camp site for those who want peace, quiet, and nature connection!
