Kerrville-Schreiner Park

We recently spent 2 nights here. We stayed on the river side of the park (adjacent to Guadalupe River) in the Sycamore Circle area. It is a full hook up section. The utilities are split up. The sewer hook up is on one side of the camp site and the electric and water is on the other side. There is a picnic table on a concrete pad with a nice awning over it. The only negative for this camping loop is the road noise (Hwy 173). It was nonstop during the day. We did not hear it in the camper since the a/c was on, but I would not want to camp in a tent or popup camper in this loop.

Check in was easy since we had already reserved and prepaid online. Supposedly there is wifi at the front office headquarters, but we were not able to access from our site. Also, the bathroom is quite a hike from the camping loop. There are eight over the air tv channels (no major networks).

It is a convenient campground to Kerrville, but if we camp here again we will camp in the Deer Field section of the park (across the highway from park headquarters). Lots of trails to access on that side of the park.

We have family in Kerrville and decided to stay at Kerrville Schreiner this past weekend. It is a great little city park along the Guadalupe River. The RV sites on the river side are located along 2 loops, one for 30 amp and one for 50 amp. The 30 amp loop was much more shady but was closer to the FM road. The park had a great spot right on the river for swimming and kayak access. Tons of hiking and biking and additional sites on the other side of the road as well

The cabins are the closest to the river and looked nice.

We found plenty to do in Kerrville. The splash pad at the main park in town, GrapeJuice restaurant, Basement Brewers, and Azul Bar/Lounge was awesome for live Jazz music

Everything at the park was clean and staff was friendly. If there was one negative, it would be the road noise. Not awful, but it was noticable at times.

We stayed here for a week in March 2019. We were on #230 on the Mountain View Loop which is water/electric only. Keep in mind, all the sites on the even numbered side in that loop had hookups on the opposite side. Your options are either cross your hoses below your RV or have your door face the road. I think this is the only loop like that. Because there was no separator, you did feel like you were out in the road a bit while camping. The full-hookup sites had an area between the RV and the road to prevent this issue. I wouldn’t stay on that side of the loop again. The leveling was crazy too on that site (and sites nearby). Our tongue jack was out about as far as she can go, but we managed. The park itself is nice and quiet. We didn’t spend a ton of time exploring because we mainly used it as a stopping ground to explore Fredericksburg and the surrounding state parks. It’s about 45 mins to Fredericksburg and the RV parks there are much more expensive. The check-in office is on the opposite side of the street as Mountain View Loop and Deer Field Loop. You go over there to check-in and then come back. Not a big deal though. We did not have good cell phone service, but with the booster it was usable for the hotspot. The sites were a good distance apart from each other and you didn’t feel like you were on top of your neighbor. They also have a dump station. Overall, we would stay here again, but I would choose a spot on the other side of Mountain View Loop or pick a full hook-up site.

The park entrance is not well marked. Using our GPS it directed us to the campground on the opposite side of the highway, where we were faced with a locked gate. It was a bit of challenge to get turned around with 33 ft behind you. The check in was fast and efficient. Our site was located near the river. It provided plenty of room, but the services were on the wrong side which again was a challenge. What is really great at this park is the concrete river trail, wide and in great shape. It runs about 4 miles back into the downtown. We biked it and it was very pleasant. Lots of birds, deer and other wildlife. All in all, a full service park for $28 is hard to beat. We enjoyed the town thoroughly.

Due to a blow out we arrived after dark. Our site number was waiting for us but no instructions of how to find the site, it was very difficult to find in the dark, once found we realised that we should have approached from the other direction as services were on the wrong side. The site we were in was yards away from the main road, it was noisy all night, poor sleep. Overnight only, maybe, but longer no chance.

This was “on the way” and met our needs. The park is pretty well run and has the facilities of most state parks: it used to be a SP. The trails were reasonably well maintained, but given the time of year there wasn’t much to see. The river walk outside the park (on the way to town) was dirty and had a bit of a smell. Perhaps this was just because of recent rains.

We stayed here for three weeks in February 2018. This park is great! The park is divided by Bandera Hwy., because we read the east side of the park gets more road noise we chose a full hookup site in the Deerfield Loop area of the park.They sure named this loop correctly! Every night we were entertained by deer walking through the park. We stayed the first part of our stay in site 111, this was an end site which made it feel much bigger.The second half we stayed in site 120, which while not bad we didn't enjoy as much. It was also fairly unlevel. The office personnel was very friendly and helpful and they also accept packages if you need anything shipped in. This park offers a variety of outdoor activities including hiking trails, mountain biking and a paved trail along the Guadalupe River that goes into town. They also have a laundry located near the restrooms. The city of Kerrville has all your needs covered, which is why we chose to stay here and get some projects done before heading into Big Bend National Park. When traveling here be aware that the office for check-in is on the east side of Bandera Hwy. If you're in the area check out Enchanted Rock for some great hiking trails, Fredricksburg is a short drive, which is a nice day trip for shopping and touristy type things and there is the small town of Bandera that we drove through to get here, that although we didn't get to visit looked very nice. We had 3 bars of Verizon 4G LTE coverage boosted to 5 bars by our cell booster. We enjoyed our stay here and if we are in this area again we wouldn't hesitate to re-visit.

This was our second time to stay here. Our first visit we stayed in the Deerfield Loop which is across the highway from the park HQ (the Hillside). The site was aptly named as deer wandered through the campground each morning and evening. Most of the sites were pull throughs with full hookups. There are a couple of washers and dryers by the bath house, though they are located outside which was kind of odd. However, it was nice to have them available.

Our latest stay was on the river side in the Pecan Loop. While this was a nice site, it was too close to the highway and had a lot of noise. In addition, our particular site had the sewer and water located very far apart. I had to use an extension on my sewer hose as well as one for my 30A power. Other sites were better in this regard.

On the Hillside there are some nice hiking trails. My only complaint is they are poorly marked so it was not always clear exactly which trail we were on. The trails are easily accessible with only a few places on the trails that presented any kind of challenge - mostly due to rocks. We encountered a couple of families with small children, so it appears to be family friendly.

We have already scheduled another stay here on our way back from West Texas. This is quickly becoming one of my go-to stopover sites.
