Weekend Trip to Coyote Creek Farm

My time at the farm was very special. I came as a female solo tent camper who has never been to Waco, and I couldn't have picked a better place to stay. The farm itself is so beautiful. I felt so much peace on Regena's land, and I also felt very safe the whole time. It is a private getaway, but super close to anything you'd want to do. Close enough to run back to the campsite in the middle of the day easily if I had forgotten something. Regena as a host goes way above and beyond to make you comfortable and anticipated any needs I may had. She offered alternative accommodations when a heavy rainfall came through, and was very easy to get ahold of if I ever needed anything. She gave awesome recommendations for places to check out in Waco, one of them being one of the coolest coffee shops I've been to (you'll have to stay here and ask her to find out what it is :) Overall, I miss it there already and I hope to come back soon! Thanks for the southern hospitality Regena!

3 nights at Coyote Creek Farm

Regina had a wonderful property! She went over and beyond as far as hosting was concerned. The place was beautiful and we will be back! She kept the toilet and trash cleaned constantly. 5 stars for sure!!

3 nights at Coyote Creek Farm

We went as a large group and Regina was an amazing host! We can't control the weather, but even with rain everything was great! And once the sunshine appeared it was even more amazing! She provided dry wood that we used and she kept the compost toilet and trash removed constantly! We will be going out to see her again!! Highly recommend this stay on your next trip out to Waco!

Weekend Trip to Hideout Ridge

We had a great camping experience here on the property. It was very beautiful, quiet and with a wonderful host. The shower and bathroom were very clean as well. Would 100% stay here again if our future adventures brings us close to this location.

1 night at Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

I loved my stay at the Daisy camper with my two pups. Barry is so welcoming and kind. The neighborhood dog Buster was adorable and so sweet and played well with my dogs. I would definitely recommend this stay!

Weekend Trip to Big Rocks on the Brazos

We reserved Site 1&2. Amazing and will definitely be back! Outstanding host and beautiful property, well maintained.

Weekend Trip to Big Rocks on the Brazos

This was our 1st HipCamp experience. It will be hard to find another spot that will supass our amazing experience here. Site was amazing, level, water tasted great. No issues w hooking up. We had Sites 1&2. River view was great, it was really running due to the recent rains so we were unable to get in. The guys caught 10 large catfish. Our host mowed a trail to walk in the field, shared some firewood w us, showed off the new cabin that will be released on AirBNB soon, (CUTE!!) Fabulous property! 10/10 stars

Weekend Trip to Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

Weekend Trip to Middle Bosque River Camp

I loved camping with my family and friends at Bosque River Camp. Beautiful property and Joe could not be any more accommodating or friendly. Thanks again Joe for letting us stay here. It was peaceful and relaxing. Awesome place to explore, so many things to see. The river is beautiful and the wildlife was plentiful. Got to see and hear some wild birds to include turkeys. I highly recommend camping here. Definitely would come back. Bathroom is clean, and it's nice to have the luxury of a flushing toilet. Bring water and enjoy.

Weekend Trip to Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

I cannot put into words how magical this place is! Barry was really nice, greeted us upon arrival and then gave us space to venture out and explore the land. He even came out with his guitar and joined us around the campfire with some good tunes (I told him I wanted to hear him play!). Just all around good vibes and will definitely be going back! Thank you Barry for sharing this gem of a place with us.

Weekend Trip to Big Rocks on the Brazos

There are four RV sites number one is closest to the water and four is furthest, but all of them are still very close. The land is beautiful. It was a lot of fun there. It was so peaceful and quiet. The host was very helpful. When we showed up a man came out and helped us guide our RV in. All in all I believe this park would be fun for anyone who likes privacy with large trees and a river within a minutes walk. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Hideout Ridge

Beautiful site, directions were easy to follow and everything is marked. Bath house is super pretty, and we loved being able to get firewood easily on the property. Lovely trip and booking from start to finish, can't wait to return with my family!

Weekend Trip to Coyote Creek Farm

We had a great time camping at Regina's farm, it was peaceful & Regina was very sweet, friendly & accomodating. There was a chance of high wind & storm & she offered for us to leave our Travel trailer & come back for it if we needed to, luckily there was no need, we only got a little shower & all was fine, but it was super sweet of her to offer. She came to our site several times to remove trash & replace trash bag from the bin on our site & checked the compost toilet to clean it too, she even made several trips to take some of us to tour her property in her golf cart at different times, super friendly, I would definitely be back, thanks for hosting us Regina, and thank you for the sweet thank you note you left early in the morning in our truck, to find before we left at 7:30am, God bless you!

Weekend Trip to Big Rocks on the Brazos

It is a great location and is very peaceful in a picturesque setting on the Brazos River with plenty of springtime bluebonnets. Plenty of catfish. Space 1 is closest to the river.

2 nights at Hideout Ridge

Hideout Ridge was amazing! Very well taken care of! The only issue is there is 1 toilet & 1 shower for all of the sites.

2 nights at Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

Visitors enjoy our quiet and beautiful surroundings along with the good company of family and friends. 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 have some good old fashion fun. Our customers are usually groups of friends and family; many 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 River 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 in 1985 looking for good water to ski on. Having developed many great memories camping here over the years, I would describe our ranch as classic and old school. Change comes pretty slow.....and we like it that way! Family, friends, kids and pets all love our amazing getaway. A rare gem best shared with good and friendly people. Each and 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.

Camping near Waco guide

Overview

Known as the "Heart of Texas," Waco is a hub of craft distilleries, rustic shops, and rolling central Texas landscapes. Outdoor recreation waits around every corner—especially on the lakes and rivers. What do you expect when nearly 12 percent of the city is covered by water? Waco has no shortage of fully equipped RV parks that put you at the forefront of local outdoor fun. Try SUP boarding on the Brazos and Bosque Rivers, or hike the cedar trails of 400-acre Cameron Park. Good old Texas glamping is just as abundant. Enjoy a taste of Southern Comfort in a cabin, farmhouse, or rail car. Ready to get out on the water? Nestled on the West side of town, Lake Waco is a 79,000-acre hub of local leisure. Have a blast swimming, boating, and fishing. (Catfish and crappie are notoriously easy to hook.) The lake also has four year-round public campgrounds with RV and tent camping. Airport Park is a favorite campground on the north shore while Midway Park hugs the east shore. Once you make camp in a lake-view site, launch your watercraft from the public boat ramps. Having trouble finding a campsite? Check out nearby Lake Whitney State Park. When camping in Waco, TX, get ready to brave some high temps. Summers here are scorching, and even winter days have been known to reach 90 F. Pack plenty of drinking water, and plan on spending your days on the cool lakes or Brazos River.
