Willow Creek Camping Company

Ein wirklich schöner und authentischer Campingplatz im Süden von Texas! Besonders hervorheben möchten wir die Gastgeber – unglaublich freundlich, herzlich und zuvorkommend. Man fühlt sich vom ersten Moment an willkommen und merkt, dass hier mit viel persönlichem Einsatz gearbeitet wird. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist wirklich hervorragend. Die Stell- und Campingflächen bieten ausreichend Platz und liegen in einer schönen, ruhigen und natürlichen Umgebung. Auch die sanitären Anlagen waren absolut in Ordnung und haben alles geboten, was man beim Camping braucht. Natürlich sollte man wissen, wo man ist: Das hier ist kein Luxus- oder Glamping-Resort, sondern ein bodenständiger Campingplatz im Süden von Texas, nicht weit von der mexikanischen Grenze. Genau das macht für uns aber einen großen Teil des Charmes aus. Viel Natur, Ruhe, eine tolle Umgebung und eine angenehme, unkomplizierte Atmosphäre. Wer einen ehrlichen, günstigen Campingplatz mit besonders herzlichen Gastgebern sucht, ist im Willow Creek Camping genau richtig. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen!

We loved staying at this campground! The nights were peaceful, it felt very safe, and it was easy to access. The restrooms were very clean, which I really appreciated. There are stores and restaurants nearby, and I especially liked that there is a sink available for washing dishes. I would only make one recommendation: it might be helpful to post a sign letting visitors know that the sink is intended for washing dishes and not for personal hygiene. Many people were using it to brush their teeth, and after the second day I no longer felt comfortable washing my dishes there. Other than that, it is a great place to camp, and we really enjoyed our stay. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I loved tent camping with the family here. It's a nice location and not too far from the town or Big Bend. Our host was very friendly and have us tips for the area. 10 out of 10, a great experience.

This site was just as described. It was so nice to have the shaded area in late May as it was reaching temps in the 90s. The bathroom facility was just what I needed. The sky was amazing! You can see the milky way with the naked eye! If I'm ever back in the area, I would definitely stay here again.

Stayed here for a spontaneous first-time trip to Big Bend and it was perfect! Beautiful clear landscape to see all the stars at night. Restrooms/showers were nice and clean, and the campsite itself was great. Host was incredibly responsive and kind enough to offer us a nicer camp spot without us even asking! If I come back to Big Bend, we’ll definitely be booking here again.

The location is great. Definitely a break from fast paced life. The biggest bonus is the available bathrooms that have real toilets and shower stalls. The property is well kept of debris and garbage we. The deck with the bench and picnic table welcoming! We will definitely be back again!

This is the perfect camping area…having bathrooms and a hot shower after being in the park all day is priceless. We’ll be back for sure when it cools down a bit.

Hidden Gem Near Big Bend

18 ft rooftop tent ·

Site 6

If you’re staying anywhere near Big Bend, I can’t recommend Willow Campground in Study Butte enough. The campsites are spacious, quiet, and thoughtfully laid out so you don’t feel stacked on top of other campers. The showers and restrooms were exceptionally clean, which after long dusty days exploring the desert is a massive plus. What truly made the experience stand out though was the hospitality. The host, Ratief, is cool as hell and genuinely one of the friendliest campground hosts I’ve had the pleasure of talking to. He made me feel welcomed from the start, shared some incredible local offroad drives and hidden gems around the area that I otherwise would have never found. Beautiful desert views, great atmosphere, clean facilities, and good people. Exactly the kind of place that makes a Big Bend trip unforgettable. I will absolutely be back.

Great spot for visiting Big Bend and the neighboring towns. Bathroom facility on site is clean and campsites are far enough away that you have a bit of privacy. Well-kept, easy to find, and the perfect location. Site 10 was great as it is just at the entrance and roomy. This will definitely be a place we recommend.

Retief is a very pleasant, knowledgeable, kind hearted man. I really enjoyed getting to know him. Rick his sidekick is the same. I just tent camped . The whole camp is designed well . Clean showers and restrooms. Hot water and electric. I was able to drive to my site in a Toyota Avalon. 👍 Would recommend ( someone did me) or return for sure !! Thanks a lot Ratief and Rick ✌️ Keep entertaining with that guitar! Good stuff.

Camping in Terlingua

We had the place almost to ourselves. Large, level ground for the off road trailer and our tent. Bath house was clean. Sink for washing dishes was a bonus. Retief had great communication, greeted us when we pulled in, and offered suggestions for places to go/things to do. We had a great experience and would not hesitate staying here again.

Great place! Really great! You think you ate Boondocking in dark skies and peacefulness but with full services. Really can’t ask for more. We have a 23’ airstream trailer. I would be cautious with anything too much bigger.

This is my second year in a row staying at Willow Creek. This campground is hard to beat. It’s close enough to all of the sites one would want to check out while visiting the area but far enough away to maintain a sense of privacy. The bathrooms are always clean, the showers are hot and the utility sink for cleaning dishes is a great amenity to have.

We really enjoyed our time at Retief’s camp. He’s got a great piece of land. We were in a van with no shower, so it was wonderful to have a bath house with showers and bathroom included as part of the site. The bath house included 3 showers, one an entire bathroom with toilet and sink, also there were 2 separate toilet rooms. Lots of hot water! There was also an exterior sink area to wash dishes. He did a great job building this bath house and it shows, lots of personal touches with a covered area and seating to look out at the mountains. Definitely recommend this camp to anyone wanting to visit Big Bend NP

Willow Creek was quiet and peaceful. The sunsets were amazing. We were there during a new moon, so it got really dark which made stargazing really nice. The bathhouse was clean and within a short distance to our site. Big Bend National Park is a short drive away, but once inside the park many of the popular hiking trails are about 25 minutes away.
