Confirmed by 1 users | Last reported on December 26, 2021We were trying to find a place in town during Spring Break, SXSW, and The Rodeo, who knows what else. Lisa the owner was so accommodating to us. She did find space for us, we just needed to move a few times which was perfectly ok with us. This KOA is geared for Adults as is Fredericksburg in general, but if you have kids that need a play area there is a Jellystone Park a few miles away. The 4 sites we stayed in were all really good, except for one which we needed to put some extra leveling blocks down to stop from rolling out of bed. They were aware and said that they will be fixed soon. The staff is always working, keeping the place in shape and it really showed. There are sites in the back across the bridge which were our favorite because they were close to the new bathrooms and a little away from the roads. The office has a few RV supplies and limited food, but there is a little shop right next to the KOA called Fresh Pickin's. They have a very nice selection of fresh food, and deli fixin's. The gas station shop next door has all the basics. WalMart is right down the road, and a H.E.B is in town. During our stay, the hosts had a band come in to play on the Stage they have on site one evening. All we had to do was bring our chairs. They have happy hour pot luck on Wednesdays and all guests are welcome. If there is one area they could improve it would be to put some fine gravel down for the sites and grate it every once in a while. The entrance to the park is right at the intersection, so just be careful here.

We stayed there for 3 nights at the end of October 2018. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The park was quiet with a very nice dog park. We liked that it was so close to downtown. We would definitely stay there again.

We love KOA campgrounds because of the consistency across the parks ie. friendly staff, laundry, dog parks, private showers, security, hookups are reliable and the park is well kept.
This park has all of that, however, from the first phone call we felt a little less than welcome. We were told they usually require a minimum two-night stay but when we balked a bit the gentleman said we could probably just book one. It was like he was trying to fill the place up. We stayed Monday- Wednesday and there were plenty of empty sites.
In fact, our site was second from the end of the row, next to a trailer in the end spot... with no one else in the remaining 6 spots!
Why were we assigned a spot next to another camper when there were plenty of spots to park in?
We like people but the spots were so close that I could smell cigarette smoke from inside our rig.
Our dump was directly in front of their picnic table.
We would have asked to move had we known that there were going to be plenty of empty spaces.
I asked the same gentleman why they parked rigs so close together and he said he had no answer to my question.
I don’t think this park staff is very customer focused. There are other parks in town so unless they are all full I’d go else where.

This park has a great location for doing many things in the area. With that being said, there are too many better options for RV parks in the area than to stay here again. Let me explain.
1. The office is in such disrepair, no paint, missing logos and general maintenance (see pics)
2. The entry gates are patched together mechanically and electronically taking a long time to open! (see pics)
3. The landscaping from front to back has had no care given to the point of being non existent. (see pics)
4. The kids playground is rock and weeds with equipment from the 60's (all steel) (see pics)
5. Our site had no power when we arrived, finding the breakers were not even connected to the open wires.
6. Water pressure was @ 20# at best and there was about 15% occupancy in the park.
7. The site was relatively level, but the picnic table was in bad shape (see pics)
8. The WiFi was very spotty, dropping the service many times & was very weak when it would connect.
There were some good features, site trash service daily, trees were a welcome feature.
With so many RV Parks in the area, the competition is light years ahead of this park and for the money, I will stay at another park.
KOA needs to invest in it's parks to compete in today's camping market

We spent two nights (minimum requirement when we booked) here in February. The location is great for walking to wineries or a brewery. The park itself is nice. You are greeted immediately upon arrival and escorted to your site. Hookups are good. I thought the sites were a little bit close together and if people keep their truck connected to their 5th wheeler you are going to have a hard time exiting. There are three longhorns to see at the back of the property. We would stay here again.

We stayed here during spring break so FBG was very busy on weekends. Others have covered the park pretty well. It is an okay place to stay but spaces are tight together. Adults-only is a nice advantage for us. 4 individual bathrooms are good, and pool restrooms are older and a bit rough. We had partial shade and some road noise, particularly over the weekend, but as mentioned, sites in rear are well shaded and quieter. I personally saw no place to walk from the park -- no sidewalks by the road, and traffic on 290 was heavy. I would not ride a bike on roads close by--too much traffic. We had to drive to LBJ Municipal Park, Kerr WMA (closed wkends), and Enchanted Rock for walking and hiking. That said, it is 10-15 minutes to town and Walmart is 10 minutes away, HEB supermarket downtown 15 mins, so it is pretty convenient. Cable worked well with lots of stations. Laundry was fine with 4 washers and dryers, $2 each. If approaching from the east, do not follow Google Maps directions. It instructs to turn south on Luckenback Rd, but stay on 290 5-6 more miles, and look for Shell gas station on left. Bending Oaks is right across the road.

We stayed three nights and had a wonderful, quiet site at the back of the park. Beautiful oaks, nice dog park and very pleasant people. We were even gifted a dozen eggs from their chickens. Would stay again!

We stayed here in our 38' motorhome with toad. The sites are packed gravel and our host told us that our particular site was unlevel in the back so we should pull forward. The location of the hookups were such that we could not do that, but knew to get our boards out and it all worked out fine. It was hot so we were glad we had some shade. They had a nice pool and the office staff was great. We were very convenient to wineries, breweries, Luckenbach and Fredericksburg, so it was a handy place to stay.

Great place to stay while in Fredericksburg Texas. Good site size under old bending oaks. Some road noise but quite after dark. We'll be back here for Octoberfest.

Staying in KOA’s across the US this spring, the only park that didn’t have access to bathrooms or showers was this one. But of course the laundry was open, as that cost money and generated revenue for the owners, so the “Covid safety” excuse should have been better thought out before using it as one.
Other sites are going up in Fredericksburg and I’d suggest using them.
