Seco Ridge Campgrounds

Loved the property that we were at. plenty of space between campsites. The common space areas were a delight. 20 minutes away from state parks. And there cat Ozzy was really nice!

We stayed at Seco Ridge Campground with family and friends and had such a great time. It’s a super quiet place, and literally they had everything we needed over there. Time by time we kept finding new things to explore, which made the trip so much fun. It is really comfortable, and perfect spot to just relax and hang out. We're definitely coming back again. Highly recommend!

Definitely just as great of an experience as I remember. It's secluded and the family who runs the property are extremely friendly and accommodating. There is just enough cell service too in the event you don't want to be entirely isolated from the world.

Fantastic camping spot

Tent ·

This place was perfect! Such a cute little spot. Close to Garner state park and Concan. Woody was super helpful with messages before our stay so we knew everything we needed to ahead of time. The property is beautiful with a great little main area with kitchen and bathroom and private quiet campsites. Highly recommend!

I could tell from reading the description that this was not a typical campground. It was beautiful and peaceful and private. You could keep to yourself on your own campsite or gather in the common area to interact with others. It reminded me of funky little hotels in Mexico that have community coffee/courtyard areas. (It also reminded me a little of El Cosmico in Marfa!) We checked in on a Sunday so everyone else was leaving. We did get to meet Woody and Elaine who were very warm and welcoming, but other than that we hardly saw anyone - not even in the common area. We had the place to ourselves! We hiked the whole perimeter, taking our time, and it took about an hour. The bathrooms were much nicer than you find in a state park, and I didn't count on wifi but having it available in the common area turned out to be very handy! The stars were amazing. We would definitely go back here.

Plenty of room for a tent. Fire ring and table are already there. It is also very secluded. One of the most private sites I’ve been to.

We really enjoyed our stay at Seco Ridge. My 13-year-old wanted a camp site that was secluded and I wanted something. That felt safe. We were both happy!

Site 2 - Secluded Tent Camping

I loved car/tent camping at Seco Ridge! Woody was a super attentive and responsive host. I needed some last minute firewood and Woody delivered some before we made it back from our hike. Seco ridge has excellent shared spaces (kitchen, grill, bathhouse) as well as secluded camp sites. With its location between Lost Maples and Garner State Park it is the ideal spot to camp!

Site 4 - Secluded Tent Camping

I camped at site 4 and really enjoyed my time. The bathroom is very clean and was always stocked. The grounds were well kept and I loved the friendly dogs and cat of the owner. I'm glad I got in during the day though, because site 4 was not marked super clearly, but the owner was also nearby to help find it.

Great site, and large area for all the space you would ever need. However, if you bring pets beware, the coordinator does not honor leash rules on his property. Two larger dogs kept showing up and tried mounting our dog several times, and we had our dog on a leash the whole time. The coordinator woody was very unresponsive so if you don't need anything you are good, but be ready to wait for a 24 hour response time to your text messages or hipcamp messages (he literally never replied to me on the app) otherwise it was an awesome trip, if you dont have a dog or need additional wood this is the site for you.

We loved the sunrise from site 6. We were super close to the main area where the outdoor kitchen which was great since we were able to use the fridge to store some food. We were lucky that no one else was there so we had the whole place to ourselves. Woody is an amazing host. Extremely nice and welcoming and he even invited us to go to the local bar in Utopia to watch some live music. Besides Utopia, everything is a quick 20/30min drive. We went to the bat tour, Lakey, a couple of spots on the Rio Frio...

Just what this family needed

With pets ·

My two sons, dog, and I stayed in The Bunkhaus and had a really wonderful time. Our family has been going through some rough times and I was looking for a place where we could spend time together and find peace. It was a bonus that we could bring our 16-month old rescue dog with us as he is our first dog and very spoiled. He was a little over protective but everyone we met was very kind about it. The property was exactly what we needed - far away from city life but also with the amenities to make it an easy place to go and unwind. Also, having Garner and Lost Maples (two very dog friendly spots) nearby was so convenient. We were delighted to be able to swim and hike with our pup. All of us agreed that this was a great trip and that we want to come back to The Bunkhaus. Thank you to Woody and his family for their hospitality and kindness to my family.

Site 1 - Secluded Tent Camping

Site 6 was absolutely amazing. The views are stunning, and although it’s near the front gate, it’s quite separate from other campers, so there is plenty of privacy, yet it’s also close enough to the bathroom and kitchen. We loved that we could buy fresh eggs from the fridge, as well. The host was also friendly and attentive. Highly recommend and will likely be back!

Best Kept Secret in Utopia!

With kids ·

Seco Ridge has been our family's favorite spot for a couple of years. We've always tent camped here, but this was the first time we stayed in the Bunkhaus, and it was great! The property has lots of trails for walks, biking trails, various sitting spots, and a beautiful sunset view spot! We also love that it's smack dab in the middle of Garner and Lost Maples state parks. The community kitchen is a great perk too. It's fun to hang out at the picnic tables, play games, and meet other campers. Each camp site has plenty of space so you never feel on top of people. Lots of trees for hammocks too. Woody is a great host, and I always come back from here relaxed and refreshed.

Ozzy rules!

Give Ozzy a raise because he was the best host and best kitty! I loved this spot, as someone who doesn’t camp often this place was perfect. The WiFi by the showers helped to download my music. As the site itself it was beautiful and spacious. Woody was a nice helpful host for this place and I will definitely be back.

Site 4 - Secluded Tent Camping

We camped for 2 nights at site 7 and had a blast. Woody is an amazing host and has created a fun and creative camping grounds. There are shaded wagons lined with comfortable pillows for a secluded hang out, hammocks and a beautiful scenic view. The grounds include a shared private bathroom with hot water showers, a shared kitchen with running water and a fridge, the host even offers fresh chicken eggs from his very own chicken coop. We had fun hanging out in the open air kitchen and eating dinner at the shared living spaces. Bonus there is a super sweet barn cat on the grounds who loves to say hello. Overall it’s a great place for group camping and I will be booking this place again.

Excellent location to camp

Tent · Group trip ·

Great host & a very cozy location to camp. We set out to disconnect to be out in nature without sacrificing the essentials & we definitely accomplished the mission. Free WiFi included near the communal lounge area, along with bathrooms containing hot water for showers & an outside shared kitchen that conveniently provides a propane grill, refrigerator & sink for your cooking needs. You can even purchase eggs provided by the chickens on site as well as firewood from the host. The most cutest friendliest kitty may stop you & demand you pay a toll to pass consisting of pets, scratches & words of appraisal. Camp Sites include a fire pit, picnic table & great tree coverage for shaded areas. The starry night sky can be observed from certain camp sites & there are options for those who wish to distance themselves from other campers as well. It’s also about a 20 min drive to Garner State Park & the nearby convenient store. Will definitely be back!

Charming TX Camping

Tent · With kids ·

We loved this place and will be back. It is great for families, and each site is unique. The grounds are beautiful and laidback, the animals are friendly and well-taken care of (so beautiful, all of them!), and it’s nice having a restroom and shower available. The communal outdoor kitchen area is a great place to hang out if you want to be around others or just change up from the campsite. We spent one day at Garner and this location is a perfect jump off spot for multiple SP day trips. Some things to be prepared for: if you forget something, there isn’t much open nearby for last minute purchases. Be prepared and be flexible. The grate on our fire ring wasn’t steady enough for cooking, BUT there was a propane grill available for use at the communal kitchen (perfect for us because—our fault—we forgot our camp stove at home). Great for stargazing.

Site 5 by the goat shed site

Our stay at Woody’s property was wonderful!! Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. It was not too far from San Antonio but still a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle. Site 6 is at the front near the gate but still very open and secluded. Restrooms and communal area is not a far walk but a good enough distance away to still feel like you’re not camping right next to others. There is even cell service with ATT. This could be a good thing or a bad thing depending if you’re truly trying to disconnect but it was a nice plus to still have if needed. I would love to go back in the future and stay at a couple of the other sites that are much more tucked back into the wooded areas but the view from this site could not be beat. Thanks again Woody!

Our campsite was beautiful and spacious. The campground/property has more amenities than you would expect, including a full bathroom with shower, a shared kitchen area with a fridge, and not to mention the swings, hammocks, trails and even disc golf baskets that are all around the property. Woody and his family were super welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Overall wonderful experience and we’d come back anytime.
