Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Hello! We are so excited that you are interested in staying at The River Bottom. This property is primitive with 132 acres of prairie land, trees, a pond, a river, creeks, and wildlife. We can accommodate RVs, camper vans, tents, or people who want to park and hike to a primitive camp spot. Campsites are to the left of the entrance near the road; however, there is very little traffic as there are few neighbors. We offer fire pits at each campsite with some included firewood. There is minimal light pollution, and stargazing is a must! Keep an eye out for petrified wood and arrowheads. If you're quiet enough, you might see some deer or other incredible wildlife.

Campsites are to the left of the entrance near the road; however, there is very little traffic as there are few neighbors. When you arrive, please go through the main entrance gate and stay on the main road. Go past campsite 1 to the first left turn. Take that and pass campsite 2, and continue until you see campsite 3, Deer Blind, on the left. This campsite can host tents. You will drive through a thin tree tunnel before the campsite opens behind the trees and brush. This site has dirt and grass, with trees surrounding all sides to provide privacy. We will provide logs for the fire pit on the site, and campers may purchase more firewood. Extra tables and chairs are available to borrow. A metal gate leads to the rest of the property, where campers can hike the roads or animal trails, mountain bike, or fish or swim at the pond. Be sure to keep an eye out for petrified wood and arrowheads, as they are all over the property! The host's house is across a small field to the right of the entrance.

    Tent camped at Deer Blind, Apr 2024.

    It was okay

    The hosts are kind and generous, supplied firewood and recommended a walk through the property which was stunning. The campsite is close to other campers and right on the road. The road isn't terribly busy but the campsite was more exposed and less private than I would have liked. Lovely property with cows nearby, definitely a rural Texas experience.

    Staying at Audrey’s place was easy and serene! The campsite offered its own privacy and Audrey was kind enough to provide ample firewood. Listening to the horses and cows made for a beautiful background noise. If you’re looking for a spot with minimal other campers, your own area and a kind host pick here!

    Tent camped at Deer Blind with kids, Jan 2024.

    Recommends

    Tent camping here was awesome. Our tent site had a great fire pit, plenty of space and a great view of a field and woods. My kids had a great time exploring the woods and creek. There are also open fields they could run around in. The hosts were super friendly and accommodating. This is a great property and we can't wait to come back again this summer.
