Parkview Riverside RV Park

We had site 4 that is riverside. We were right behind the large rope swing. Very popular for the swimmers. It has a nice view of the river and hillside on the Garner State Park. We did not have Verizon cell service but there WiFi relay is on site 3. Not fast internet but decent for social media. They have a store will all the essentials and keep the park well maintained. There is an iron fire pit on each site.

Our 2nd stay here. Right on Frio River in the middle of Texas Hill Country which is cool and fun to swim in. However it is across from Garner State Park so gets crowed by the River during hot summer months. Park is older with assault roads but gravel pads. Large bath house & laundry room. No Verizon cell service but park has good WiFi and 23 channels of cable tv. Nice store, sells propane, & YOU CAN WASH YOUR RIG IN ITS SPOT!

Our first trip to Parkview Riverside was last year at this time. It was a great stay and, before we left, we made reservations to return this year. However, COVID-19 happened, shutting down cities, states...the entire country. We had hoped that by the time we were to make our trip back to Concan the stay-at-home orders would be lifted. However, 3 weeks prior to our check-in date, the pandemic was still raging, state and local orders still in place, in turn, causing us to cancel our reservation. Upon contacting the park, communicating directly with the owner, we were told our reservations would be canceled, but we would not receive a refund of our deposit. They were allowing a 7-day grace period, this year only, due to the virus (7 days from what??). Per the owner, "We do not make exceptions because to do so exposes us to charges of discrimination." I could certainly understand this if the world weren't in the middle of a pandemic, the likes of which has not been seen since 1918. In this instance, given the crisis our country is experiencing, you would think business owners would be understanding and more than willing to accommodate their patrons. The owner's actions are a very bad reflection on Parkview Riverside.

Very quiet and peaceful park. Right next to Garner State Park where there are miles of trails and other activities. Only drawback is the relative isolation from town (approximately 32 mi from full service grocery, etc.). Zero Verizon coverage within 15 miles of park (unless at top of Old Baldy peak at Garner State Park). But, park WiFi signal is surprisingly strong throughout park! Extensive uncrowded roads to bike ride, run or walk. Direct access to Frio River!! Stayed most of January, NO CROWDS and moderate weather the entire stay. Shade trees are ubiquitous.

Check in was quick and simple, we were using our RV Golf program, our campsite was preassigned when we called to reserve.
The office and camp store seemed to be well stocked, we had just resupplied in San Antonio before arriving so did not purchase anything, the park is located in Texas hill country, overlooking the Garner State Park and the Frio river, our spot was a pull in large enough to allow the towed to fit behind the rig, the view out the windshield was amazing. The wildlife (squirrels) entertained our cats all weekend, there is access to the river in numerous locations with rope swings out into the river, the park is well maintained and each site was cleaned and checked as each occupant left.
Wifi was strong and fast enough to stream video, cable tv with the major channels (about 20 stations) all hookups were located close by, and were in good condition, there are a lot of monthly rentals in the park, and garbage is picked up daily.
This place is all about the views....the natural beauty are enough reason to visit

The only negative, there seemed to be a pungent smell through out the park that would come and go, possibly someone suggested sulphur?
