Oxbow Paradise

Owned and operated by the same family for over 100 years.  

The camping area up a bit above the riverbed has everything you could need- firewood, a fire pit, and a picnic table

The area around the river is lush and green, with hiking paths leading every way

A watchful cow from the herd kept an eye on our activities from a distance

We decided to set up camp right on the riverbed. It was a perfect place for a campfire as the sun set.

Campfires

Dead End Creek

South Texas off-grid camping at its most rugged. 

No running water, no paved roads, no electricity.... but you get total privacy! Get away from it all and pitch your tent, hang a hammock or boondock your camper van in total seclusion. Approximately 20 acres on a creek to explore with lots of curious wildlife including turkey, deer, and armadillos. Walking trails abound with 2 reservable campsites with firepits, and an unbeatable sunset view overlooking a quiet creek.  Contactless check in, unique gate code provided prior to arrival. Centrally located shared outhouse, just a 1-2 minute walk from any campsite.

Easily find your campsite with prominent signage.

Plenty of room to hang hammocks, or place a few tents under the oak canopy. Fire pit, grill, and a few stump seats make for a cozy fireside meal.

Watch the sun set over the creek with your best bud.

Large firepit for bonfires and a grill for cooking.

Creepy crawlies and pointy things abound.... watch your step!


Peaceful and quiet oak mott with mustang grape vines to lounge on.

Waterfront Getaway Lavaca Bay

Pitch your tent, pop your pop-up, or back up the van to the little mesa on the water. Pack-in, pack-out paradise for fishing, grilling, and sea-gazing.
Just under an acre of green grass flanked by trees on each side, on the shore of Lavaca Bay - a prime fishing destination for bay anglers.
The land is flat, 20+ feet above sea level, with plenty of room for camping and relaxing. Closer to the water, the land slopes down  a slope down to a small plateau on the shore with a bulkhead about 4-5 feet above the water.
The lot is in a small subdivision whose friendly neighbors enjoy a quiet working life or retirement.

Quiet Louise/El Campo Bliss

Learn more about this land:Enjoy sunrises and sunsets out in a quiet open private space. Spend some time away from city life and even star gaze with your family at night. 10 acres of open space and full hook-ups available for your RV. 50amp electricity and on-site sewer and water hookup. Pull through site under a covered lean-to. 60 ft long x 25 ft wide. Pets are allowed. Please make sure you pick up after them.

Broken Oak River Park

40 acres – “Big enough to explore, but not too big to get lost!” 
Hike alongside the meandering Navidad. The 2/3 mile-long developed walking trail offers pristine views and a good opportunity to scout your campsite. Each area features a distinct slice of Texan wilderness, whether you prefer wooded terrain or a lookout over the river. One site features a handmade brick firepit and a perfect spot for stargazing.
During the day, you can follow the river to some waterholes and try your luck at catching catfish and perch. Celebrate your success with a picnic under a sprawling oak, keeping an eye out for deer, rabbits, and other playful animals.
If exploring is more your style, head into the woods and hunt for Bandit’s Hideaway, a hollow old sycamore with secrets to tell. Depending on the season, you might stumble on wild dewberries or an ancient grove of pecans. 
At night, grill your family dinner over the firepit (or sneak ‘em back to town for some Tex-Mex!) and then tell ghost stories at the south fence overlooking Enon Cemetary. After a long day, settle in together with the stars and the sounds of nature.
They say life’s what you make it, and at the 40, you’ve got everything you need for a little piece of heaven!
While the property is largely undeveloped as of now, we plan to add pubic bathrooms, a stocked pond with a swimming area, and much more!
Pets allowed. Please be sure to pick up after them.
