Camped here with a group over Veterans Day weekend. Starting with the pros.. our campsite was huge!…read moreWe had enough space for three tents, plus could have fit at least one more. The bathrooms were clean, and each campsite had a nice cover over the table. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the hiking trails were really just walking trails and weren't that exciting. We were also woken up every morning at 5am because the duck hunters would unload near our site and walk down to the lake. If you did manage to fall asleep you were soon woken up to gunshots starting around 6:30 for hunting. The first night, right at dusk, we were attacked by some sort of nasty flying bug.. I think maybe industrial terminates because they came from the ground. It was terrorizing. But didn't happen the second night. And the Javelina's were really cool to see, but an absolute nightmare for our guardian dog. They do get close to the campsite, even if people are out, and our dog declared them as public enemy number one. So we were always on edge and looking for them before he caught wind of them. If you are looking for a chill spot to just hang and camp, I recommend. But if you are looking for more activities in a park, this honestly wasn't the place. The kids activities that were scheduled for the Saturday were cancelled, which was disappointing.

In the front area, as you enter the park, they have information about the ecosystem, trees and drought tolerant grasses. When you walk down the steps after entering the park, it leads you to the San Antonio River. We saw people running, cycling, and walking the paved walkway next to the river. It's so beautiful! Our kids fished and caught some small perch. There's not a lot of shade on the walkway so bring sunscreen! On very hot days, the park staff drive on the walkway to offer people water which is really nice! Small Parking lot at the entry of the park. We've found a spot each time we've visited. Highly recommend a visit, if you're in San Antonio!

I've never seen such active wildlife in a neighborhood park and the animals are accustomed to people. Very friendly it almost felt like a movie the way the animals interacted with us.

My family and I went here about a week ago to check this lake out. It was ok. No big wow factor…read more There was tons of trash floating a long the edge of the water. No restrooms to be found and if there was a restroom well you probably need a biohazard suit. You do have to pay to come into this park which is owned by the power plant. I wish the money went towards the facilities. I think it's just going towards someone's pocket. There is no swimming in this lake. I know 2 reasons why. 1 this body of water is apart of a power plant. 2 there is alligators. Not a great place to take the family because kids need restrooms. You will have to drive to go to the nearest restroom. My recommendation. If you and your buddies want to go fishing and hang out and not worry about small bladders this is a place to go. I wouldn't recommend this place for camping unless you bring your own bucket to use the bathroom.

They have alot of activities you can do here like the playground, basketball court, tennis court, swings, a nice trail around the lake and many ducks around. They were really cute and thankfully they never messed with us. The park has plenty of parking and everyone I spoke with were really friendly. I even liked how the park have plenty of seats and benches you can sit and relax on. Overall this was a fun day trip and plan to come back here in the near future.

The park has lots of campgrounds and picnic tables. It's also part of the historic Camino Real. Helton Nature Park is worth a trip.

A bit underwhelming…read more When I visited Grotto, I was a little disappointed. The Grotto is a small section of the Riverwalk that is designed as a man-made rock grotto. You can walk under the cave to view a waterfall and fountain. I am not sure if it was construction or a poorly built safety rail, but the pathway surrounding the installation was lined with cheap-looking PVC pipes and buckets filled with concrete. It really took away from the art installation. The photos really make the Grotto seem larger and more robust than it actually is. Once you walk under it, the main attraction (the face and fountain) is actually quite small. I would only really visit if you're in the Pearl-Midtown area, otherwise I would not recommend going out of your way to see it.

The perfect place for a relaxing day with the family!…read more I've been coming to Paradise Canyon since I was 5 years old, and although I hadn't visited since 2019, I was able to bring my family today. It was just as beautiful as I remembered. This place truly lives up to its name. Paradise Canyon is privately owned, family-oriented, and offers something for everyone. There are shallow areas where kids can safely swim and play, as well as deeper sections for adults who want to swim or practice their strokes. The grounds are well maintained, the restrooms are clean, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. It's the kind of place where you can spend the entire day relaxing and making memories with your family. I would recommend Paradise Canyon again and again. It's a true Texas gem.
