Trail Notes

What we noticed on the ground

At the very end of 2019 we headed south into the Texas Hill Country looking for some fun and adventure! Our second campsite on this trip was at Blanco State Park | Texas Camping can be so much fun! This great Texas State Park in located right in the middle of Blanco Texas on the shores of the Blanco River, how quaint is that?! Blanco State Park | Texas Camping is not a very bag park but the beauty more than makes up for the smaller size! Camping during the spring can be a bit of a risk as the river has been know to flood outside of the river channel. There is plenty to do in Blanco State Park | Texas Camping! Fishing, swimming, kayaking are just a few of the fun things! Enjoy a stroll through the Blanco town square do a little shopping and dine on home cooked style food! Come along with me as I explore Blanco State Park | Texas Camping!

Mapped with our Texas State Parks stops.

Campnab

Want the best campsite?

I do too.

I want the right site, on the right dates — not just whatever happens to be left when I make the reservation.

That's why I use Campnab.

I tell Campnab the campground, my dates, and the sites I'm looking for. If one of those sites opens up, Campnab lets me know.

Then it's up to me to grab it through the campground's reservation system.

Campnab doesn't book the campsite for me. It watches for the opening so I don't have to.

👉 Have Campnab watch for your campsite.
