This campsite was exactly how it is advertised: very secluded and private! If that is what you're looking for, I highly recommend. If you are interested in hiking, however, I would recommend going to a national or state park instead. The trails were so overgrown that I could only go about 1.5 miles before having to head back due to the trails being blocked by rocks and trees. The actual campsite was gorgeous, though, and the directions to get to it were very clear. I drove a Kia Optima and was able to get to site #1. Pro tip: bring bug spray!!! Because this site is right on the water, there are tons of little bugs that like to swarm you. Overall great experience and wonderful host.

What a marvelous property! There are few things better than waking to the sounds of a babbling brook and enjoying a quiet cup of coffee. Can hardly wait to come back. Thank you for hosting and for excellent and prompt communication.

This place is great. Loved that it is so remote. Our site was nice. The flowing stream is a really nice feature as well. Walking distance to a couple of great fishing spots. Caught my best bass on the fly to date, probably 4 lbs. There was not much natural shade, so glad we had our own canopy so we could enjoy the great view.

The rv spot was perfect. If you want to get away from the city and relax this is the place to stay. The night sky was amazing. Wish we could have stayed a little longer.

Great place to relax and watch the stars . I slept next to a lake with the sounds of a water fall next to me . Plenty of birds to keep me company .

***THIS CAMPSITE IS WORTH EVERY PENNY***
I tent camped at Site #1 with solar panels and a generator—absolutely perfect setup. I drive a Chrysler 300 and had no trouble getting in; just slowed down in a few spots and crossed a couple of small creeks. (It’s early August and the area has had heavy rain, so it’ll likely be even smoother when you go.)
I had the entire lake and surrounding area to myself. Total peace. Total seclusion. The hiking is incredible, with a hidden gem along the trail that’s worth every step. I only stayed one day, and I regret not booking a full week.
The host’s directions are crystal clear—if you can follow instructions, you’ll have no issues. I have three kids under five, and this place is a dream for families. Out of the 20+ places I’ve camped this summer, this is one is hands down my favorite. It’s obvious the owners genuinely care about preserving and protecting their land—you’ll see exactly what I mean the moment you arrive.
Book it. Don’t think twice.

Peaceful Lake Views & Unique Trail
Tent · With kids ·
Secluded Primitive Camping Site #1
We really enjoyed our stay at this campsite. The location is beautiful, with great views right by the lake. During our visit, the lake was overflowing into a small stream that connected to another lake down the hill—such a peaceful background sound throughout our stay.
It did rain quite a bit while we were there, so the area got a little mucky, but that didn’t take away from how much we enjoyed it.
We also took the trail up to the nearby plane crash site, which was a unique experience. Definitely recommend having a 4x4 vehicle for that one—there’s a steep 22-degree incline before you reach it, and if the trail is wet, it becomes even more challenging. Still, very cool to see the remnants of the plane.
The only thing we would have loved more is a clearer path or access point to the lake. It was pretty overgrown, and with the rain, we didn’t get the chance to explore it up close. Hopefully next time!

We stayed at Camp site 2 it was off the gravel road on a little grass trail to a nice open area. it was very private and super dark to see tons of stars. We went Overlading on 3 trails. Without giving away too much the 1st purple trail was fun and calm until it got to a very steep decline that not many rigs can handle! Many vehicles can go to that point tho then hike it! Second trail was very calm but super narrow with brush/trees around! The 3rd trail without giving away too much is definitely for more experienced overlanders or hikers who can climb some harsh steps! Also on the 3rd trail I recommend walking it, driving it, then walking it again just to make sure u don’t bite off more than you can handle. You have some areas u can bust a U-turn if it’s too much but they are far apart so make sure you can handle the trail to the next clearing! It was a fun camping experience with pretty ponds and wild life.

Great ranch and I look forward booking a different site. The rain made it a little sloppy at secluded#2 and the 4Wheel drive came in handy. Great sunset and seclusion, which is what I was looking for. The only caution is the exact camp site has a lot of big red ants so I had to go down further.

Secluded Primitive Camping Site #2
I loved camping here it was so secluded and private the closest campers were about a 1/2 mile away plus we had some Cow visitors!!
I really loved camping here although some things to note
We lost 2 tires on an F-150 truck in our 2 day stay here so I would definitely be careful with what vehicle you bring
Lastly the lakes were not quite what I expected but that wasn’t a problem because there are multiple access points to the Nueces river close by !

This Hill Country camping at its best! This site is beautiful and very private! We had a great time paddleboarding on the river! We saw lots of wildlife and fell asleep to the sound of the water under the stars! The directions to the site are a bit complex but the instructions sent by our host were very clear and accurate. The site was clean and eat to use with a stone fire pit. The nearby town of Camp Wood had a good restaurant called Canyon BBQ and grill. And further along in Leakey we found a few cute Antique shops and a coffee shop.

Everything was great, I stayed at site 1, on one of the lakes. Beautiful, saw some turkeys, quiet, and big open skies at night. I’ll definitely be back. Thanks, Ashley, great host by the way.

Beautiful property! The host was wonderful and very responsive to messages. The campsite was nice and secluded. We had privacy for most of the time we were in camp. The 4 wheel drive trails were exactly what we were looking for. Perfect for someone new to off-roading. Just technical enough, but nothing extreme. We would definitely go back! Highly recommend!

What a beautiful ranch and ponds! We enjoyed exploring the property on our side by side. The views were breathtaking and our campsite (site #3) was beautiful with a pond to catch some bass and a large shade tree. We can't wait to come back!

FULL RV Hook Up on 6,000 Acre Ranch
We used their full RV hookup and it all worked well. In my opinion it is a beautiful ranch. It has pretty views of large hills in every direction. There are several tanks (small lakes) that all had water in them. I think they are all on the same creek that must be spring fed. I met a few of the ranch family members. They were all friendly, helpful and likeable. The main roads to get into the ranch and on the ranch were good and in good shape. We enjoyed feeding Tye the pig. The two cabins are nice. For the most part we had the ranch to ourselves to explore. It was a nice place to relax.

It was very quiet and secluded. I really enjoyed being out there. The ranch is nestled in a long valley that is part of some of the prettiest land I’ve seen in Texas. I’d recommend this as a trip for anyone looking for an off the grid and peaceful spot to camp.

Great camping and 4x4 trails

Secluded Primitive Camping Site #2
We had a great time camping here. The directions were great and found our site with no issues. We were able to do a couple of trails with our Tacomas and looking forward to coming back and riding more trails. Views were great especially the mountain top views. It was cool to see the cows roaming around. It felt like we were the only ones in the ranch. There’s not a lot of places to camp and ride 4x4 trails in Texas and we’re glad to find one in the Hill Country. Ashley was super friendly and answered all my questions. We can’t wait to go back.

Dispersed Camping on a Texas Ranch
Tent · With pets ·
Secluded Primitive Camping Site 5
We were looking for some camping/off roading in Texas and came upon HPWilliams Ranch. Texas is remarkably almost entirely privately owned and that’s a problem for off road enthusiasts used to state or federally owned land that can be used for recreation. The HPW Ranch is a great resource to check off the boxes. It’s big, 6000 acres big, has natural springs that feed lakes with fish, great camping with great views and yes we put the Jeep through its paces while exploring the vast property. We enjoyed our experience camping with the surrounding wildlife and the star flooded skies. So glad to know that we don’t need to travel out of state to get our dispersed camping fix. Ashley and the other folks at the HPW Ranch will definitely see us again.

Property was awesome!
All the trails, wildlife and scenic views.
We did run into a lot of bees at campsite #2, but other than that it was a 10/10!
