Kerrville-Schreiner Park

After driving 500 miles that day, we pulled in just to get off the road and rest. The office was closed but they had a list of open sites, we pulled in and called it a night. The next morning went to the office and they said, we had to move. There was no reservation posting at the site, like many other RV parks. No military, AAA, Access Pass or any other discounts. Make sure you have you have extra long fresh water hose and power cable because, the way their site set up are you'll need them. Clean shower, loud traffic but people are nice.

This is an "X Texas State Park" which was deeded back to the City of Kerrville in 2004. The park is "split" by the Bandera Highway. There is a gated entrance on the south side of Bandera Highway (Highway 173), which requires a code. Check-in is on the north side of Bandera Highway.
We arrived for a 3-day weekend with reservations made for Deer Field Loop 150 days prior and full payment submitted via their on-line reservation system.
This was our 4th stay at this park. We love it because it is very quiet, close to Kerrville and the deer visit daily! This is a heavily used park and it shows it. Restroom/shower facility in Deer Field Loop is very old, but clean. There are 2 coin operated washer and dryers at the rear outside.

Our pull thru site #129 was challenging due to tree location, which caused us to back-out upon leaving.

In this loop, your neighbors are in clear sight. Campsite asphalt is in poor condition and caused us to do additionally leveling. Campsite concrete picnic table had exposed rebar when concrete is failing. Site grass was mowed. Campground roadway easy to maneuver.

Lots of terrific restaurants in Kerrville along with 2 HEBs and a Wal-Mart. Don't miss Gibson's!

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.
