Weekend Trip to Fort Clark Springs

This was my second time to this campground. It's a beautiful wooded spot located within historic Fort Clark. Restrooms were clean. Picnic tables, trash cans and grills were provided. Met the host at the RV office and she was welcoming and helpful. We enjoyed exploring the local area.

1 night at Star Gazer's Primitive Camping Site

Very pretty landscape and attentive host. He was easy to communicate with and made sure our stay was the best it could be.

Weekend Trip to Star Gazer's Primitive Camping Site

Just spent one evening out there. Great views. It can get windy. Just make sure you anchor your tent and it will be just fine. Very nice. I will be staying here again. The information provided was very helpful in finding the place. I really enjoyed my time out there.

2 nights at Fort Clark Springs

Loved my recent stay at Ft Clark. I am a car camper with my own power supply so was offered my booked tent site or the option of camping in a parking spot near the office in the RV park. I opted for the RV park as there was a picnic table for me to use and the bathrooms were very nice. Showers were clean, updated & hot. Everyone was friendly— including the camp cats too. Would definitely recommend and will return when in the area!

Weekend Trip to Apache Rock Wilderness Lodge

Warm and cozy cabins in a nice private hilltop. Mike is super friendly. Nice trails around with some amazing rock collecting.

Weekend Trip to Fort Clark Springs

Great spot! We just stayed for one night as we were passing through towards Big Bend NP (which sounds like a lot of people do). The host at the RV station was so kind and informative. We had the campsite to ourselves which was nice. It’s a small campground so if it got full it would feel pretty packed in.
