Welcome to the Cibolo Gardens Nature Preserve! Just 22 miles from downtown San Antonio, not far off of US 281, our educational homestead is an excellent place to camp. We’ve transformed 45 acres of what was once an active rock quarry just 15 years ago, into a healthy, regenerative, green space as well as an event and training venue. Our venue is nestled in the middle of the rapidly growing suburban landscape around us in north San Antonio. We purchased the property five years ago from good friends who had already started the mission of revitalizing the land. Today, 39 of the acres are in “preservation” status, which means that we are letting the natural micro-ecosystems that have developed from what remained of the quarrying activities 15 years ago to develop on their own. We hope to always keep this acreage in that status for generations to enjoy. The remaining 6 acres is wooded, where we live, have gardens, farm animals and where we interface equitably with our environment. Feel free to simply relax in the shade of the persimmon and juniper trees. Or, to add some activity to your stay, hike the varying terrain on our 45 acres, hunt for fossils in the dry creek bed, break out your tree / plant id books, or watch the wildlife (even if it’s just the chickens).  Refresh by taking a dip in the above ground pool, or wash off in the outdoor cob shower.  [Please be advised that besides campers, we also host homesteading, wilderness survival and herbal medicine classes on our site.  So, you might have company, but you'll definitely have room for privacy. ]  If you want to explore more Hill Country, nearby attractions for outdoor fun include the Guadalupe River State Park (16mi), Guadalupe Canoe Livery where you can rent tubes and kayaks on the river (16 mi) or Natural Bridge Cavern (17mi).

Great open site
I loved the feeling of bring in the woods but the site was open and has a lot of room to move around. Great sunset views. Can't wait to go again.

Into the woods
The campsite was amazing, felt like I was in the woods. David was great let us use a wagon to take all of our stuff to the campsite. I loved the outside shower, better than what I have at home lol. The kitchen was great made it so easy to do dishes. Can't wait to stay there again.

Simply perfect!
I’ve been camping here twice now, and each time was amazing. I love the conservation mindset the whole place has, maintaining its natural beauty. It’s the perfect place to go just barely outside of town. I love the community amenities available, it makes everything low stress knowing if I left something behind they will probably have it! David is always a pleasure and super willing to help. Can’t wait to go back!!

It's in the woods but close enough to get to town if need be. The camping area is clean you have a out door kitchen pool. The host David is nice friendly responds quickly when you message and takes care of anything you need otherwise you won't see him. I look forward to returning.
