Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is great for families and kids.

Welcome to our little piece of paradise! 55 acres of woods hidden near town. A network of trails criss-cross the creek and wind throughout the property under a peaceful canopy of large beautiful trees. Don't be surprised if you run into deer, squirrels, or roadrunners! Our property is home to a wide variety of hill-country wildlife. - Each of our campsites are private and surrounded by forest. - Each site has a fire ring for campfires - Our trees are our most precious natural resource and set this campground apart! Please don't do anything to harm them. - Port-o-john is available on site. - All of our campsites are primitive. No electric or water here. - When you camp with us you are welcome to explore and play on the entire property! We have 55 acres of trails and woods to explore! Please bring your bikes, trail shoes, or whatever helps you have fun in the wild! - Hammocks welcome! We have so many trees! All of our sites are hammock-friendly. - When you check-in, just text us, your host will help you find your campsite. - Some sites are drive-in where your vehicle can park right next to the fire. Others are walk-in and require a short hike of 100' or less from your parking space. You can indicate your preference during booking or at check-in. If you want to drive right into your site, Campsites 2, 3, 6, and 12 are the sites you want. Some of our campsites are more secluded than others and offer extreme privacy in the most beautiful settings we have to offer. If you're looking for a wilder campsite surrounded by huge old trees and all the peace the woods have to offer, just request Campsites 4, 5, 7, or 8. Each of these sites requires a walk of at least 50' from your vehicle to the fire ring. Site 13 is only for backpackers or people willing to hike about 500 yards to the campsite over rough terrain. There is no way to drive to it or even get close except on foot. But it is spectacular and beautiful! Only three sites can accommodate a smaller trailer or camper. Site 1, Site 2, and site 6. Please notify me in your booking if you intend to bring a camper and I can accommodate you. We practice leave-no-trace as much as possible. So please pack out anything you pack in. You are responsible for removing all trash. If any garbage is left behind in your site you will be billed for the cleanup. We have a dumpster located near the front gate. Please use it and put all your trash in there. Heads-up! We have a small farm on the property. Dogs are always welcome and we LOVE our furry friends! For their safety and the safety of our livestock please keep them leashed while on property.

Site 2 - Lost Woods Campground

Camping in a big city!

Great location to camp AND explore San Antonio. Nice campsite. And a porta potty, too. James was easy to reach if there was a question or any kind of issue. That being said , he allowed the utmost in privacy.

Site 3 - Lost Woods Campground

Sweet Little Camping Hideaway

What a wonderful GEM of a location near the big city! The property is very well maintained even during the height of the spring growth season! Each campsite has its own charm & significant separation from the other sites. A fire pit is primed for use at each site, when permitted! A true camping experience -- perfect for tent campers, overlanders, van-lifers & those with little trailers in tow! I hauled in a 16' trailer with a long-bed RAM & was able to make Site 3 home! Planning on coming back soon!

Site 2 - Lost Woods Campground

A casualty of urban sprawl

We had a great camping experience, but unfortunately I think development has ruined what was probably a once great getaway. The sound of the cars on the highway was prominent the whole stay. During the night, the frequent drag racing prevented a restful sleep.

Site 8 - Lost Woods Campground

Neat wooded preservation so close to SA! Site 8 is awesome if youre camping on the ground! You walk back 50 or so feet to a clearing and feel like your deep in the wilderness. the only thing reminding you you're not is the sound of traffic ha! However, I got switched to site 6 quick and easy by the host as I was using a RTT. Site 6 is Perfect for that! back right up to the site like a stateparks drive up campground.

Site 2 - Lost Woods Campground

pretty ranch ruined by development

I bet this place was great 15 years ago. It’s an Old ranch. Some goats are on site. Probably remote in the day but development killed it and it’s super pricey for what you get. Kind of shocked by the “rustic” advertising when you can hear the highway and people drag racing their cars all night long. Did a walk. Seems to be audible in all locations. Campsite itself was nice. Private. Easy to get into. Nice camp fire area. We had fun at the site. If it was in the middle of nowhere- would have been what we were looking for. They should also either clean or remove the portajohn. It was piled with used feminine products. Heard multiple women complaining. Pretty gross. We went in the woods. For the price, would recommend going further out and actually doing some “rustic” camping.
