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.

Our property is meant to be calming, fun and relaxing.
Camping with class is what we like to say.
We are constantly upgrading our areas and property to be safe and entertaining.
Our pond is charming and the focal point of the camping adventure.
We have a paddle boat and an electric john boat to toodle around in.
Want to go fishing?
The pond is stocked with bass, catfish, crappie, bluegill and perch.
There is also a small island we call “Angel Island” that you can fish from or just sit on the deck with your favorite beverage and enjoy the view.
There is a riding/walking trail that is approximately 0.7 miles in distance and basically encompasses the perimeter of the back area.
Walking is common, bikes are welcome and small 4 wheelers are also welcome. No side by sides please.
You won’t be over crowded here as we currently only have 7 total camping sites. However, we do have enough property to accommodate large parties, reunions or any other type of get-togethers.
Come see us and enjoy time away from the fast paced city!
You might hear the sounds of the coyotes yipping in the night or perhaps one of the great horned owls calling out from a big oak tree.
You may also see some deer, rabbits, squirrels and even armadillos.
We are rustic but classy. Time to get away and relax! I can be reached at 850-503-1290 for questions.
** Special note - We have a very nice fireworks show on the property above the pond on the 4th of July weekend that all campers are invited to enjoy.

The campsite was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, Becky and her husband, Ricky, made us feel genuinely welcome with their warm hospitality and kindness. They were exceptional hosts who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable.
The campsite itself was beautiful, peaceful, and well-maintained, making it the perfect place to relax and spend quality time with family. We created wonderful memories and truly enjoyed every moment of our stay.
I can honestly say that my family and I had an incredible experience and enjoyed ourselves to the fullest. We will definitely be coming back in the future. If you're looking for a relaxing, family-friendly getaway with outstanding hosts, I highly recommend this campsite. You won't be disappointed!

Waco Creekside was so beautiful! Very clean and the staff is very nice. The bath houses and laundry were very clean and well maintained. Each site is easy to navigate and hook up. Very minimal noise. Most guests were 40+ friendly and quiet. The dog park was big and very clean. All guests kept their dogs quiet. We had no issues and I’ve already booked our next stay!

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.

Confusion on arrival as named "Post Oak RV" on HipCamp but has been renamed "Nicole Creek" Wasn't sure we were in the right place. Had to call host to check. Had wait a while for reply to voicemail but comparing sat nav photos to listing photos, figured we were where we should be and set up our spot. Nice size pull through pitches. Clean and tidy. Near to a road but set back enough and not
much traffic.

Its a lovely little place tucked away in the backroads. The hosts are wonderful! The access to the lake is easy to get to. We had views of a bluebonnet filled field and cute little cabins along the lake. The site had FULL HOOK UPs, picnic table and firepit to use if desired. The river access had breathtaking views of the cliffs across as well as upstream and downstream. There is places to fish and swim near by. We can wait to go back!
