Pitch your tent on the Paluxy River under giant pecan trees. Take pleasure in the scenic view of our gorgeous river. Our private property is located near the historic square of glen rose but feels like you are miles away in the country. Have a good time kayaking, swimming, fishing, or just relax and take pleasure in the views. We have 4 different sites to select from. Many have a tree break location in-between for personal privacy. Or lease all 5 and have the whole home to yourself. Updated river images will be published on our Facebook page, or message me for updates. Sadly, I’m unable to control the river. It goes up and down depending on rain and temperatures. The river gets pretty low throughout July and August. Wheeler Branch Reservoir(just a couple of miles from camp) is a great area to swim and fish when the river water levels are lower. Extremely small lake that is good for swimming and kayaking with a dock, clear waters. We have 5 various sites. All of them neglect the Paluxy River, have rock fire pits, seating areas, patios, and stairs down to riverbed. You will have access to one of the most beautiful parts of the Paluxy River. During dry spell conditions and high temperatures I constantly recommend keeping your head above water and avoiding stagnant locations in the river. In order to book an area you should be 21 or over.
