We stayed here two nights. Perfect spot to catch an Uber to the Alamo and river walk. The staff was very friendly and helpful. You could tell they enjoyed working here. Exceptional customer service all around. The pool was sparkling and refreshing on a warm day. The grounds were clean and well manicured. Plenty of space and things to do for the kiddos as well. This may be the best KOA that we've ever stayed at. We are full time in our rv so we have plenty of experience with rv parks and KOAs specifically.

We had wonderful 3 nights at this awesome campground. Everything here is perfect and well taken care of. The Sites are Beautiful, the washrooms and showers so clean and Perfect. The laundry well functioning. We took the Bus to Downtown and back, Great! When We arrived, Ron was bringing us to the dump station and to our site and gave us tips where to go in town. We loved our stay here.

Such an amazing experience! The staff is the nicest you’ll find! So helpful and so accommodating! We had a problem with some squirrels throwing nutshells on our roof at night which scared the dog🤣 but they didn’t even bark at us about wanting to move. They simply moved our site for us and it was greatly appreciated! They also gave us great advice on how to get into town via the bus or uber. It was one of our best experiences at a campground

This KOA was perfect for my family of four (2 adults and 2 dogs!). We arrived a little late, but the guard at the entrance was very helpful in guiding us to our lot. The campground is quite large, with plenty of trees and shade throughout. The pool was clean, the bathrooms and showers even had AC, and there was a fun common area with table tennis and foosball. There’s also a walking trail nearby, which was super convenient. We stayed here while attending a concert at the Alamodome — it was only about a 15-minute drive, which made it very easy. I also worked remotely on Friday and found the Wi-Fi reliable, though it was a bit spotty on Saturday when the campground got busier. Overall, we had a great experience and can’t wait to come back!

I cannot say enough great things about this campground! The proximity to San Antonio sites like the Alamo and the River Walk made it very convenient. But the best part was definitely Alyssa and all of the fun activities she had planned for the kids! Our kids participated in a pie-eating competition, patriotic BINGO, and water kickball. All of the events were so much fun! Alyssa does an amazing job getting the kids excited and involved, and she’s great at remembering their names! Our children definitely made memories that will last a lifetime!
