Camping near Redwood, Texas
Redwood is an unincorporated community in Guadalupe County, Texas, sitting between San Marcos and Seguin along the San Marcos River corridor. The area sits at the eastern edge of the Texas Hill Country, about 30 miles south of Austin and 50 miles northeast of San Antonio, which puts most Central Texas attractions within a day's drive.
The San Marcos River defines the local camping scene. The spring-fed river runs a consistent 72 degrees year-round, drawing tubers, paddlers, and swimmers from spring through fall. RV parks cluster along the river and along the I-35 corridor toward San Marcos, giving travelers a mix of riverfront resorts and full-hookup parks close to town services.
Nearby options include Pecan Park Riverside RV Park directly on the San Marcos River, San Marcos Springs RV Park closer to the city, Canyon Trail RV Park, Treeside RV Resort, and D and R River City RV Resort. State park camping at Palmetto State Park adds a public-land option a short drive southeast.
Things to do near Redwood
Water dominates the itinerary. Tubing, kayaking, and swimming on the San Marcos River are the signature activities, with public access points in San Marcos and shuttle services offered by several riverside RV parks. The river holds smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, catfish, and perch for anglers willing to drop a line from the bank or a canoe.
Palmetto State Park, about 25 minutes southeast, offers short hiking trails through dwarf palmettos, an oxbow lake with a fishing pier, and paddling on a calm stretch of the San Marcos River. Day trips reach San Marcos Premium Outlets, Wonder World Cave, the historic squares in Gruene and New Braunfels, and downtown Austin or San Antonio within roughly an hour.

Central Texas has a long warm season and a short, mild winter. Spring (March through May) brings the most comfortable temperatures, wildflower displays, and the highest rainfall of the year, with May averaging the wettest conditions. Book early: spring break and Easter weekends push RV parks near the river to capacity.
Summer runs hot and humid. Daytime highs regularly reach the mid-90s and can push past 100, and July and August are the busiest months for river tubing. Expect heat advisories, afternoon thunderstorms, and full campgrounds on weekends. Sites with shade and 50-amp service for running air conditioning are worth the extra planning.
Fall brings a second wave of rain in September and October along with cooling temperatures, and it is generally the sweet spot for weather without the summer crowds. Winter is mild, with daytime highs in the low 60s and occasional cold fronts. Many RV parks stay open year-round, and winter is when snowbird and long-term sites fill up.

RV was great! We had a wonderful time renting it for a weekend at COTA. Jesse was very responsive and helpful anytime we needed it.
Michael G. - Sep 2026
Jesse is great! This is my second time renting a camper from him and he has been very easy to work with. We were camping locally and he even stopped by to check on us the day after our departure and brought us an outdoor rug just in case we got some rain! I highly recommend him and we will certainly be using him again in the future!

It was the perfect RV for the trip. We had no issues. I would rent it again. Joseph made the pickup and drop off very easy.

How to book campgrounds near Redwood
Private RV parks along the San Marcos River, including Pecan Park Riverside RV Park, San Marcos Springs RV Park, Canyon Trail RV Park, Treeside RV Resort, and D and R River City RV Resort, take reservations directly through their own websites or by phone. For summer weekends and holiday periods, aim to book two to three months out; riverfront sites at the closest parks go first.
Palmetto State Park and other Texas State Parks are reserved through the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Overnight camping and lodging can be booked up to five months in advance, and popular weekends often fill the moment the booking window opens at 8 a.m. Central Time. Day passes open up to one month ahead and may still be required in addition to a camping reservation, so confirm entry fees for your site when booking.
What to expect on the ground
Most RV parks in the Redwood and San Marcos area offer full hookups (water, sewer, 30- and 50-amp electric), Wi-Fi of varying reliability, laundry, and pet-friendly policies. Riverfront parks tend to have shuttle service to tubing put-ins, swimming access, and shaded pecan or oak canopy. Sites can run close together at the busier resorts.
Check-in is typically early to mid-afternoon with checkout at late morning. Bring quick-dry towels, water shoes for rocky river bottoms, and insect repellent for evenings. Flash-flood risk is real along the San Marcos River after heavy rain upstream, so monitor conditions before setting up gear near the water. Cell coverage is generally solid across the corridor.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Redwood, TX
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Redwood, TX?
RV rental in Redwood is one of the most budget-friendly ways to experience the Texas Hill Country and the nearby San Marcos River. On RVezy, travel trailers typically start around $95 to $165 per night, Class C motorhomes run about $175 to $285 per night, and larger Class A coaches range from $250 to $425 per night. Cheap RV rental Redwood options appear most often in January, February, and early December once river-tubing season winds down. Pro tip: pick up your rig Sunday through Thursday for lower nightly rates and better availability. Use the price filter on RVezy to find what fits your budget.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Redwood,TexasWhat license do I need to rent an RV in Redwood, TX?
Good news for first-time renters: a regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Redwood for nearly every rig listed on RVezy. Texas does not require a special RV license or commercial driver's license (CDL) for standard motorhomes and travel trailers used recreationally. Approved drivers on RVezy are generally 25 or older, and your ID is verified securely through the platform during booking. Visiting from abroad? Bring an International Driving Permit (IDP) from your home auto association along with your home-country license. That's it, you're cleared to roll out toward the San Marcos River or Austin.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsIs RVezy's protection package included with my Redwood RV rental?
Yes, every RV rental in Redwood booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you're covered from the moment you pull off Interstate 35. The protection plan helps cover physical damage to the vehicle during your trip, giving you real peace of mind whether you're parked along the San Marcos River or cruising toward Gruene. RVezy offers different protection tiers, and you (not the host) choose the level of coverage that fits your comfort during checkout. Pick your tier, hit book, and focus on planning your Hill Country itinerary.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat's the cancellation policy if my Redwood trip plans change?
Booking an RV rental in Redwood is genuinely low risk. RVezy (not individual hosts) sets the cancellation policy, and it includes a full money-back grace period right after booking, so you can lock in your dates with confidence. Refund eligibility after that grace period depends on how far out you are from your trip start date. Full details are available on the RVezy Help Center. Pro tip: book early to secure your rig, knowing the grace period has your back if plans shift.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Redwood?
Yes, pet-friendly RV rental Redwood options are easy to find on RVezy: just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter and you'll see rigs whose hosts welcome four-legged co-pilots. The area is great for dogs: Pecan Park Riverside RV Park is dog-friendly along its shaded pecan grove, and the city of San Marcos has off-leash areas in select parks. Bring a tie-out, a collapsible water bowl (Texas heat is no joke), and current vaccination records. Message the host before booking to confirm any size, breed, or fee details, then start picking your river-trail walking route.
visitsanmarcos.com/blog/post/pet-friendly-san-marcos/Can the RV be delivered to my campground or house in Redwood, TX?
Yes, RV delivery in Redwood is one of the smartest moves for first-timers and anyone who'd rather skip towing a 30-foot trailer down Highway 80. Many RVezy hosts in the San Marcos and Redwood area offer delivery, setup, and a full walkthrough at your campground, vacation rental, or driveway. Filter listings by Delivery, then message the host with your exact address to confirm the fee (usually mileage-based from their location). Popular drop-off spots include Pecan Park Riverside RV Park and Canyon Trail RV Park. You show up, they hand over the keys with the AC already humming.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Redwood,TexasHow far can I drive on an RV road trip from Redwood, TX?
Redwood sits in a sweet spot between San Marcos, Lockhart, and Luling, putting big Texas destinations within easy reach. Austin is about 35 miles north on Interstate 35, San Antonio is roughly 55 miles south, and Hill Country gems like Wimberley, Gruene, and New Braunfels are all within 20 to 30 miles. For a longer RV road trip from Redwood, Fredericksburg wine country is around 95 miles west, Port Aransas on the Gulf Coast is about 200 miles southeast, and Big Bend National Park is a bucket-list 470-mile haul. Many RVezy hosts offer RV rental with unlimited mileage or generous daily allotments, so check listings before a big loop.
txdot.gov/Where are the best campgrounds near Redwood, TX?
You have great options for RV camping in Redwood. Pecan Park Riverside RV Park sits on shaded acres along the San Marcos River, with native pecan trees that are perfect for hot afternoons. Canyon Trail RV Park near I-35 offers full hookups and easy downtown San Marcos access. Lockhart State Park, about 15 miles east, has wooded sites, a swimming pool, and trails, plus you're minutes from famous Lockhart barbecue. Pro tip: book Pecan Park 2 to 3 months ahead for summer weekends, especially around July 4th.
tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/lockhartWhen is the best time of year for a Redwood RV trip?
March, April, October, and November are the sweet spots for a Redwood RV trip, with typical highs from 70 to 85 degrees, lower humidity, and bluebonnets blooming along Hill Country roads toward Wimberley each spring. Fall brings cooler weather and pecan-harvest season. Summer (June through August) is hot, often mid-90s and occasionally 100-plus, but very doable thanks to the spring-fed San Marcos River that stays a refreshing 72 degrees year-round. Winters are mild with daytime highs often in the 60s, great for snowbirds escaping northern cold. Local tip: book a March pickup to catch wildflowers without the August heat.
weather.gov/ewx/I'm a first-time renter. How do I drive an RV around Redwood confidently?
First time renting an RV? You're in good company, and Redwood is a forgiving place to start. Every RVezy host provides an in-person orientation at pickup that covers driving, hookups, slide-outs, and the dump valves, so you're never handed the keys without a walkthrough. The roads around Redwood, including Highway 80 and Interstate 35, are mostly flat, wide, and well-paved, ideal for getting comfortable before pointing the rig toward Hill Country curves. Take corners wide, watch for low tree branches on county backroads, and use mirrors constantly. Pro tip: practice a few miles on the I-35 frontage road before heading to your campground, you'll feel like a pro by mile ten.
txdot.gov/What happens if I break down during my Redwood RV trip?
You're never alone on the road. Every RV rental in Redwood booked through RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, so a flat tire on Highway 80 or a dead battery at the campground is just a phone call away from help. Roadside support can dispatch tow trucks, tire changers, jump-starts, and lockout service. If anything goes sideways mechanically, RVezy customer support is available before, during, and after your trip, and your host is usually a quick text away too. Save the roadside number in your phone at pickup, then focus on enjoying the river.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Redwood RV rental across state lines or into Mexico?
Cross-state travel is generally welcome: plenty of guests rent an RV in Redwood and head to Louisiana, New Mexico, or Oklahoma. Mexico, however, is off-limits on RVezy rentals because the protection plan and roadside coverage are not valid outside the United States and Canada. Popular routes from Redwood include the Gulf Coast loop to Port Aransas (about 200 miles), the West Texas haul to Marfa and Big Bend (about 470 miles), and the run east toward New Orleans (about 530 miles). Always message your host before booking to confirm long-haul plans, since some hosts set their own state-by-state preferences.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat kind of fuel mileage should I budget for my Redwood RV trip?
Budgeting fuel for your Redwood RV trip is straightforward once you know the numbers. Class A motorhomes typically get 7 to 10 miles per gallon, Class C motorhomes 10 to 14 mpg, and campervans (Class B) 16 to 20 mpg. Travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle, usually 10 to 14 mpg combined. Texas gas prices tend to run a bit below the national average, with stations in San Marcos and Seguin convenient for fill-ups before heading to Austin or San Antonio. Pro tip: top off in Lockhart or Luling where prices often beat I-35 exit pumps, then enjoy famous Central Texas barbecue while you're parked.
gasprices.aaa.com/state-gas-price-averages/How far ahead should I book campgrounds near Redwood?
For the best Redwood RV trip, book campgrounds 2 to 3 months ahead for summer weekends and holidays, especially Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day, when San Marcos River sites fill fast. Texas State Parks like Lockhart State Park use the official Texas Parks and Wildlife reservation system, which opens bookings up to 5 months in advance and is worth a calendar reminder. Private parks like Pecan Park Riverside and Canyon Trail book directly through their own websites. Midweek and shoulder-season (March, October, November) stays often have same-week availability. Local tip: ask about river-shuttle service when you book so you can plan tubing days.
tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/reservationsWhat are driving conditions like around Redwood, TX?
Driving conditions around Redwood are friendly for motorhome rental Redwood travelers most of the year. Roads are mostly flat with mild Hill Country grades, Interstate 35 is the main artery (busy but well-maintained), and Highway 80 connects Redwood to San Marcos in a quick hop. Watch for two specific things: summer pop-up thunderstorms (June through September) can drop heavy rain quickly, and low-water crossings on county backroads can flood, so follow the TxDOT mantra: turn around, don't drown. Rush hour on I-35 between Austin and San Antonio gets thick from 7 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. Plan pickups and big drives outside those windows.
drivetexas.org/What amenities will I find at campgrounds near Redwood?
Campgrounds near Redwood are well-equipped for a smooth RV camping experience. Most private parks like Pecan Park Riverside and Canyon Trail RV Park offer full hookups (30 or 50-amp electric, water, sewer), Wi-Fi, swimming pools, laundry, and dump stations. Lockhart State Park has water and electric sites plus a central dump station and potable water at the entrance. Cell service is solid across the Redwood and San Marcos area on all major carriers, so streaming and remote work both work well. Pro tip: ask for a 50-amp pull-through site if your rig has dual AC units, you'll want both running during July and August afternoons.
tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/lockhartWhat features and amenities come with a Redwood RV rental?
Your campervan rental Redwood or motorhome will arrive ready for adventure. Most RVezy listings include a queen or king bed, a kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and cookware, a bathroom with shower and toilet, roof-mounted air conditioning (essential here), a furnace, and seatbelts for travel passengers. Many include a TV, outdoor awning, and onboard generator for boondocking. Wi-Fi varies, and some hosts add a hotspot for a small fee. Linens, kitchen kits, camping chairs, and outdoor grills are popular add-ons offered by hosts. Pro tip: message your host before booking to confirm bedding, bikes, or tubing gear, since many Redwood-area hosts stock river-ready extras.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Redwood,TexasWhat add-ons and mileage policies should I look for when I rent an RV in Redwood?
When you rent an RV in Redwood, hosts set their own pricing for add-ons and mileage, which means you get to customize the trip. Common extras include delivery and setup, generator hours, bike racks, kayaks (great for the San Marcos River), tubing gear, linens, and kitchen kits. Mileage policies range from 100 free miles per day to fully unlimited mileage, so if you're planning a family RV trip from Redwood to Big Bend or the Gulf Coast, filter for unlimited. Pickup and drop-off times are set by each host and listed on the page. Pro tip: bundle delivery plus a generator if you're heading to Lockhart State Park, where the shaded sites are gorgeous but partial hookup.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Redwood,TexasHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment for your RV rental in Redwood is handled securely through the RVezy platform, with no cash or side deals with hosts. You'll pay the booking total (nightly rate, taxes, protection plan, any add-ons) when you reserve, and a separate refundable security deposit is held on your card before pickup. Deposit amounts vary by RV and host but are released after the trip once the host confirms the rig was returned clean, undamaged, and on time. To avoid hiccups: dump the tanks if required, refuel to the agreed level, and take pickup and drop-off photos.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksHow do I handle the Texas summer heat on a Redwood RV trip?
Summer in Redwood is hot, with July and August regularly hitting the mid-to-upper 90s plus humidity, but RV travel here is very doable with a smart plan. Pick a rig with a working roof AC (standard on most RVezy listings) and book campgrounds with 30 or 50-amp electric so you can run AC nonstop. Drive in cooler morning hours, park in shaded sites when possible (Pecan Park's pecan grove is excellent), and plan midday hours on the spring-fed San Marcos River, which stays 72 degrees year-round. Hydrate constantly, use sunscreen, and you'll have a memorable RV camping Redwood adventure.
