Boulderdash Cabin & RV Park is located on 4.8 acres with serene views on the Medina River. We offer river access for floating, paddling, swimming or fishing. We do not offer a boat launch so if your water toy is on a trailer leave that at home! Be aware that river levels vary widely. Sometimes we have a lake, sometimes a river, and sometimes a stream. Check for recent photos on our FB page or on Google to get an idea of the river levels. Even when the river is low we have a great swimming hole so bring your chairs, hats, sunscreen and shades. Come spend a weekend or longer at our little slice of paradise. Remember to invite your friends or family to stay at any of our 3 RV sites, 4 rustic tent sites or our retro RV “Stella” so they can enjoy some downtime too!

Carol-anne's cabin was great! The cabin was clean with plenty of clean towels and all the stuff we needed for the weekend. The A/C was a huge plus given the 100+ weather. Access to the river is easy although the water level was low. Our dogs still loved the water. We also enjoyed the campfire and used the grill for burgers.
Have better Pest Control for roaches in house. They were especially bad in Master Bedroom!
Wow, well played Launa, in the past 5 years of hosting we have never had a single complaint of roaches in the cabin. Interestingly enough you only wanted to pay for one nights stay so I truly believe you fabricated the roach infestation to get out of paying for your second night. My camp hostess keeps our cabin meticulously clean, and your claims of HUGE roaches crawling down the wall in the master bedroom have been thoroughly debunked. Firstly, cockroaches rarely hang out in bedrooms, they prefer the kitchen and bath area, I learned this after living in Corpus Christi for 25 years! However we do take guests claims seriously, and after digging though your copious amounts of trash,(thanks for not recycling by the way) looking for said HUGE roaches, and doing some costly and extensive pest control, we found one dead ant and one dead fly, not a single solitary dead cockroach. We did however find puppy pee soaked couch cushions which you attempted to hide,I guess that is OK as far as cleanliness in your book? And we did also find one old dried up small roach in your trash, wondering where the rest of them are, as you said you put them all in the trash?
The cabin has everything we needed and was very clean.
Thank You so much!!
This cabin is fantastic! The beds are comfortable, the bathroom is wonderfully well appointed, so is the kitchen. It’s relaxing and has the most beautiful views and exceptional amenities. The whole area has a peaceful energy. The covered porch is a blissful place to sit and drink your coffee in the morning and watch the Medina river wake up. Even if the water is low it’s a real treat to play in, for kids and adults alike. The concrete deck on the bulkhead is the perfect place to grill dinner and have s’mores around the firepit. It really is a good value because I don’t know of any other place with the space and amenities in a serene waterfront location with such conscientious, friendly hosts and awesome owners. My whole family enjoyed our stay (even my 17 yo son) and we look forward to coming back again and staying in the cabin (I wish I could live there). We have stayed in our rv/trailer several times at Boulderdash and will do that again too, but the cabin is a special place and worth the expense.
You are awesome, that's a wonderful review! Thanks Rachell!
Awesome place to stay! Very peaceful and relaxing. Hosts were wonderful.
Thank you so much!! We hope to see you guys again!
We really enjoyed our time on the river! Very clean cabin, great amenities, & beautiful river access. We’ll definitely be back!
Thank You Crystal, so glad ya'll enjoyed it!
The Riverside Cabin made for a very pleasant and memorable stay! The hospitality extended was great, and hosts were quick to help and answer any questions we had. The cabin itself was very clean and inviting upon arrival. It was well stocked with just about anything you need (even toiletries)(seriously, just bring your own food!) The site was isolated enough, nice and peaceful. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery, from the amazing sunrises and sunsets, to the cool, refreshing water of the Medina River, to the wildlife (cliff swallows, deer, squirrels, fish, even armadillos!) We we’re even able to take some nice family photos! It’s a great spot for campfires, storm watching and stargazing! We loved exploring along the River and kayaking every day (my favorite part)!
The only slight inconveniences were that the cabin charcoal grill was a little small (good for hot dogs or burgers, but not any serious grilling) and even the communal grill could use a replacement. Also, we noticed the shower tub drained a little slowly. Not anything major, just things that could use a little improvement.
Of course, the River levels were low (be sure to check online for levels), I believe we read it’s about 30% full. But we understand the Camp has no control over that. That being said, there was still plenty of water activity we were able to enjoy! There were small rapids in front of the cabin that our daughter enjoyed floating down on her tube! And there were a couple of swimming holes down a short ways we made good use of! And kayaking was still possible and very fun! There were some fish, but not exactly a great spot if you’re planning to fish (my father didn’t catch anything).
Overall, we had a fantastic stay!! Would highly recommend this very clean, pet and family friendly campsite! We look forward to visiting Boulderdash again!!! Thank you for the memories!
Thank you Carolyn! We are happy to hear your family made some great memories on the Medina! That is what we are all about, and we hope to see you back soon!
Took our two grandkids to the cabin for a short getaway following a year of isolation. It was a great transition into doing something "normal" away from home and they loved it. Very little TV or computer time which was our goal.
Thank You Patty, Glad you guys got to UnPlug!
Our family had the best time relaxing and enjoying the scenery. We’re definitely going back.
Thank You Sandra, we enjoyed hosting you and your family! Thanks for being great guests, and we would love to have you guys back!
