San Antonio
Hello! We are looking at spending the upcoming Feb-Jun in San Antonio Tx. Does anyone have any suggestions for full time or extended stay campgrounds? We have looked at Stone Creek and Hill Country RV resort online, but it’s always hard to get a feel for a place that way. Thank y’all!
Cheers,

You can use this site to search and drop down into the details and the parks' web sites (if they have one) to check on long-term options and rates. There are phone numbers listed for nearly all of them:

You can go to RV Trip Wizard for actual user reviews.
Better yet - check out CampgroundReviews.com They have even more reviews and details about campgrounds.Larry KE4DMG

Stone Creek and Hill Country are both in New Braunfels about 30 minutes north of San Antonio. I do not recommend Stone Creek. Depending on what your interest are I would consider staying in Kerrville (Buckhorn Lake) or one of the many RV parks in Fredericksburg. There's a bunch of things to do in both of these hill country towns. You're not far from San Antonio or Austin for day trips, close to Bandera, Comfort, Enchanted Rock, New Braunfels, Gruene (Green). Just a lot more laid back area.
If you are set on San Antonio then I think the KOA would be the best bet.Les and Sharon Bevil

I agree with AUSTEXGP. We were just at Buckhorn RV Resort in Kerrville 2 weeks ago. We always enjoy our stay there, and it is just 4 miles west of Kerrville off I -10. Easy to get to Fredericksberg, which is a Hot spot for shopping in their downtown. If you go east out of Fredericksberg, there are numerous Wine vineyards with Tasting rooms. Fredericksberg has numerous restaurants and is an old German immigrant town from the 1800's. Also has the Admiral Nimitz museum which is a Historic site and is surprisingly LARGE! Also has a couple of GOOD German Restaurants and Breweries. The Vineyards RV resort is just outside of Fredericksberg and is spacious and has all amenities you need.
Buckhorn resort outside of Kerrville, is Beautiful and spacious, and has many Full Sites. Also has an Adult only section which fills fast. There is a section attached to the RV resort that has Stone Casitas, with concrete pads for your MotorCoach. They are Leased for 15 years, I believe. You must own a Large Class A Diesel to Lease there. The Casitas and the RV park make it an enjoyable place to stay. You will like the Hill Country. Kerrville also has shops and many restaurants to enjoy. Both towns are there for tourists.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Thank you to everyone for the advice. We are targeting the area of northern San Antonio out toward New Braunfels. Will definitely look more closely at parks to the north toward the hill country. AustexGP, any reason you recommend against Stone Creek?

Bama,
No real reason we camped there for a wedding a few years ago. It was just one of those parks that I didn't like. The sites were gravel and unlevel, seemed like there were a lot of permanent residences, the bathrooms/showers were cramped and not particularly clean. There was very little to do at the campground and it was a distance to New Branufels and to San Antonio. Since it was in the between exits and entrances to IH35 you had to go south a good bit before you could go back north.
In looking at their website it seems like they have improved the pool area. The "big dance floor" that they advertise is probably not open due to covid.
I have noticed that the area east of the park (in Schertz) has added a few more eatery's and a couple of theater/bowling/arcade places nearby.
Just my opinion but you'll have more to do around the Fredericksburg/Kerrville area. Unless you really like bowling, movies and lazer tag. https://www.evocinemas.com/schertz
You don't say where you're traveling from but you will find Texas a big state with varying weather. It might be 90 degrees one day and snowing the next. We usually have our winter during mid-January through February then we go to summer.Les and Sharon Bevil
