Boulderdash Cabin & RV Park

Boulderdash Cabin & RV Park

(9 reviews)

We spent 2025 Thanksgiving week at Boulderdash, and it was fantastic. Extremely well run RV…read morefacility, strong stable power at the pedestal, good water, and well kept grounds. Small, but perfect for us because it was not overrun with people in golf carts, 4 wheelers, etc. The owners, Lyn & Carol-anne, have their residence right next door, and are available for any issues or questions. And they delivered warm pumpkin bread loaves to all campers on Thanksgiving! They have built a great escape with this RV park. There is also a house, an apartment, and a renovated RV available for rent. Bandera is about 10-15 minutes away, if you have to "do something". Highly recommended. We will be back!

We arrived to find Carol-anne waiting for us, with a welcoming smile as big as Texas. She led us to…read moreour site and gave us a quick rundown of some of the park rules (trash, laundry, parking, etc). As others have said, there was a complimentary mason jar of deer corn on our picnic table and a printed sheet of park info. Lyn stopped by to say hello while we were setting up. He seems to always have something to keep him busy in the park...always on the go. They live up the hill, above the park, so they're close by if you need anything. There are two shower/restrooms: a converted horse trailer (so cool!) and the more traditional one that's part of the office building. The traditional one has a shower that is divine! Big and roomy, with real water pressure!!! The laundry is two/two deal, with each load costing a total of either $3 (your own laundry soap and dryer sheets) or $5 (their laundry soap and dryer sheets). The Wi-Fi is the best we've ever encountered! Never once were we knocked offline, no slow weak signal, we were able to stream as much as we wanted. It really was the best! This is a very small park and it feels more like you're hanging out in someone's backyard. Very cozy, very calm. Wildlife everywhere. We ended up buying 80 lbs of deer corn, strawberries, blueberries, cabbage, carrots, grapes and apples for the deer, as well as peanuts for the squirrel that lives in the knothole of the tree next to the deck. The wildlife was a big selling point in booking our stay here, and it did not disappoint: fawns, does, spikes, bucks, gray fox, raccoon, squirrels, cardinals, titmouses, doves and house finches were our visitors. I would imagine it's tough to get a reservation here during high season, but if you can, do it! You'll love it! (Word of caution...the last stretch of the drive here, maybe a quarter of a mile, is unmaintained gravel that requires a very slow crawl if you want to be kind to your rig. Take it slow and easy, and you'll be rewarded with a great stay at a lovely little gem of a park.)

This is the worst campground on the planet. I'm pretty sure! I've stayed in some pretty bad places…read morebefore but getting to the campground to drive past about eight crack houses and three meth labs, and some RVs that just need to be burned to the ground and places that look like garbage dumps. We got to the resort only to have reverse polarity on the power pole and could not hook up thank God we had a generator. The roads are terrible. It's ugly. There's not much to do and I don't recommend this place to anyone do yourself a favor stay away and by the way, there is no lake or water. WISH I COULD GIVE A -1 REVIEW THAT BAD!

This review is from January 2024. I didn't realize I never hit enter until I was looking for…read moresomething else today, a year later. Laundry is $1.65 per washing machine, $1.80 per dryer/60 minutes with 6 washers/6 dryers, all on CSC digital pay. You need to download the app before you get to the laundry rooms if at all possible. There are big tables for folding, big sink, good ventilation, lots of chairs for waiting. Minigolf is nice and big. Activity center is busy with planned activities. Pickleball, shuffleboard, pool, cornhole, tennis courts, basketball courts. Coffee maker in activity room. Lots of trails to walk. There is no water in lake. It's pretty much completely dried up. Park is about 30 minutes from San Antonio, 25 minutes from Amazon lockers at Quik Mart in Helotes. Almost all trees around laundrymat need to be cut down. Lots of Oak Wilt and dead branches will fall on trailers. There 's a bunch of 50 and 30 amps that don't work and have green TT covers on them. There is a paper with a barcode for the gate that works the whole time. We love that the code doesn't change for the gate like at Lake Whitney TT. Tons of deer, okay to feed them. Bought deer corn at True Value in town $9.99 for 50 lbs. They will almost eat out of your hand. The neighborhood coming into this park is a bit sketchy, but we had no issues at all. It is important to take 8th street coming into this park. DO NOT take 3rd street if you're in a big rig.

' The pool can only be…read moreused with a reservation due to the Chinese Flu. ......but Ranger Amber is off today, so none of the campers can use the pool on a beautiful Summer Sunday. Only Ranger Amber knows how to make reservations.Apparently making pool reservations is more difficult than putting a man on the moon. So the pool sits empty on a hot weekend in Texas.

If you like Boomers with nothing better to do then this is your place. I'm sure in it's prime days…read morethis place was super nice and felt like a resort but now it's rundown and needs desperate facelift. You would think a business like Thousand Trials cwould afford a better tech system for booking spots but no, when you arrive they pretty much tell you first come, first serve. Which you think would be easy with the map they provide, oh baby, no. You see this property has more spots unavailable then they do available, red boxes EVERYWHERE. What are red boxes? They are outlets that don't work and they are ALL OVER THE PLACE. Just space left rotting for no reason. You could let guest park there but that would make too much sense and they want this place as miserable as possible. Oh and don't get me started on the trees just littering the spots and in the path to where you can barely back up. You want a leveled spot for your RV? Good luck if you can find them. You need a 50 amp? Don't bother here. They'll tell you they're putting more boxes in but that's been 3 years of promises they keep making to their actual members. Also if you thought because the lake was low you would use the pool. Don't even think about it, it's broken and that would require the ladies in the front to do something with their time besides complaining and making nasty snide comments. So they'll just let that fall apart just like the historical building on property that should've been refurbished but instead looks dilapidated. Which is pretty on brand for this property. It's time to retire your boomers and bring in some fresh management under the age of 40 to bring in the new RV crowd or I can see this place closing for good in the next 10 years. Cause the membership pushing ain't going to do shit.

Out in the country! Has 25 spaces. Adult only. Nice dog park. Laundry and shower room is very clean…read moreand nice. You can buy fresh eggs from owner (so good). Some drive through spaces.

The final nail in the coffin was prior to checking out I told Roz, the owner/manager that I wanted…read moreto give her notice that I was leaving to have repairs made to my RV and that my departure date was uncertain as I was waiting on the RV Repair center to give me an exact date. The repairs were expected to take up to a month or more. The LRRVR Contract for long-term rental states that 30 days notice must be given prior to your departure or your security deposit will be forfeited. I explained the situation to Roz and she told me not to worry at all about the 30 day notice, that because I had been a good guest she would waive that requirement, but to just give her notice as soon as I had an exact date. Well, about a month later, the RV repair shop called and gave me a shop date of about a week out. I immediately told Roz. She again stated to me that it was no problem-and that she already had someone lined up to take my spot. Well, here's the short: I ask for my security deposit after I checked out and Roz refused, stating I didn't give her a 30-day day notice. I'm like what!? You had previously told me you would waive it. However, she said it didn't matter whatever she had told me, the contract states 'thirty days notice', therefore she was keeping my security deposit. That's just downright deceptive, raw, and dead wrong. As my previous review points out, the con's outweigh the pro's. It's too bad because the Lost Resort RV Ranch Park could have been made into a gem, but cutting corners and cheating people never works out in the long run. Finally, there are just much better places to stay, and mean dishonest people, they really suck.

We only stayed one night. The room is comfy but odd…read more The entrance is the bathroom/shower area with a sliding barn door separating it from bedroom area. Just awkward set up. Glad I washed my hair before I came. Water pressure not too great. But ok. Beds are comfortable. Great pillows. We had a balcony to look out to main street. That was nice. Customer service/staff (well one employee) she was very accommodating. We had paid for balcony room and #207 balcony not usable so she moved us to 215. We would stay here again since our kids live an hour away and no hotels there!!! All in all it was ok.

Check-in was easy and the staff was very friendly and informative. They let me know upfront that my…read moreroom was above the bar and might be noisy. I appreciated the heads-up and asked to switch rooms -- they were kind enough to upgrade me to a suite at no extra charge. The hotel itself was very nice -- everything felt updated, fresh, and clean. Breakfast in the morning was surprisingly good. I had the Southwest scrambled eggs, waffles, sausage, and orange juice -- all enjoyable. The only real drawback was the room layout. When you enter the room, you walk directly into the bathroom area -- sink, toilet, and shower -- and only then do you get to the main sleeping area. This design can be uncomfortable, especially if someone is using the shower or bathroom and you need to leave the room. You're either stuck in the suite until they're done, or you have to walk right past them to exit. It may work for some, but it felt like a poor design choice for shared stays. Overall, though, it was a nice place to stay with great service and solid amenities. Just something to keep in mind depending on your travel situation.
