Campgrounds near Charlotte, Texas
Charlotte is a city in Atascosa County, Texas, and part of the San Antonio Metropolitan Statistical Area. The town sits at the junction of State Highway 97 and Farm Roads 140, 1548, and 1333, in southwestern Atascosa County, roughly 45 miles southwest of downtown San Antonio in South Texas brush country. That location makes it a practical basecamp for RV travelers moving between the San Antonio metro, the Hill Country, and the South Texas lakes region.
Most RV parks in and around Charlotte are small, privately owned properties oriented toward long-stay guests and oilfield workers, alongside a smaller share of travelers. Options within a short drive include Bar M RV Park, Safari Vista RV Park, Hwy 97 E RV Park, Freedom RV Resort (a clothing-optional property), and Shady Oaks RV Park. Expect full hookups, gravel or paved pads, and quiet, rural surroundings rather than resort amenities.
For state park camping, the closest Texas Parks and Wildlife destination is Choke Canyon State Park, a large reservoir park to the southeast. San Antonio-area parks and the Hill Country are within a one to two hour drive north.
Things to do near Charlotte
Fishing and wildlife viewing anchor the outdoor scene. Choke Canyon Reservoir is known for largemouth bass and catfish, and the 26,000-acre lake sits within a state park that includes a dedicated Birding Trail. American alligators live in the park, and Choke Canyon is the westernmost place where they commonly occur, so shorelines require caution, especially near dawn and dusk.
Day trips are the main draw. San Antonio, less than an hour north, puts the Alamo, the River Walk, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, and SeaWorld within reach. West and northwest, the Texas Hill Country offers Guadalupe River State Park for tubing and hiking, and Enchanted Rock State Natural Area for granite-dome hiking. Local ranch roads and small-town squares in Pleasanton, Jourdanton, and Three Rivers fill out shorter outings.

South Texas has a long camping season, but comfort varies sharply by month. Late fall through early spring is the sweet spot: mild days, cool nights, low humidity, and manageable insect pressure. This window overlaps with Winter Texan season, when snowbird RVers move through the region, so monthly and long-term sites at private parks around Charlotte can tighten from November into March.
Summer is hot and humid. Summers in the area are sweltering and muggy, with temperatures typically varying from 44°F to 98°F over the course of the year and rarely below 31°F or above 103°F. Shade at RV sites becomes a real planning factor from June through August, and alligator activity at Choke Canyon peaks in the warmer months, which affects shoreline access more than campsite availability.
Fall brings the wettest stretches, with tropical moisture from the Gulf occasionally producing heavy rain and flash flooding on low-water crossings. Hunting seasons on nearby ranches and wildlife management areas run through fall and winter, which can influence private-park occupancy in rural Atascosa County.
How to book
Private RV parks near Charlotte, including Bar M RV Park, Safari Vista RV Park, Hwy 97 E RV Park, Freedom RV Resort, and Shady Oaks RV Park, are typically booked directly by phone or through the operator's own website. Many of these properties cater to work-crew and monthly guests, so calling ahead to confirm nightly availability, rig-length limits, and metered-electric policies is worthwhile.
For Choke Canyon State Park, reservations go through the Texas State Parks system operated by Texas Parks and Wildlife, online or via the customer service center. Campsites with electric or water can be reserved for today and up to 5 months in advance. The park recommends reserving both camping and day-use passes because it regularly reaches capacity on weekends and holidays.
What to expect
Expect small, functional RV parks rather than resort-style properties. Sites are usually full-hookup with paved or gravel pads, picnic tables, and modest shade from mesquite and live oak. Metered electric billing and gated entry are common at parks that host work-crew guests, so ask about the billing model when booking.
Cell coverage on the major carriers is generally reliable along the US-281 and I-37 corridors east of Charlotte but can drop on ranch roads. Grocery, fuel, and RV supplies are easiest in Pleasanton or Jourdanton. Wildlife on and near sites can include deer, javelina, snakes, and fire ants, so secure food and check under slide-outs before departure.
Roads in the area are flat and RV-friendly, but summer heat is intense; plan travel and hookups with air-conditioning capacity in mind.
