- We just got back home from an amazing 4 day stay at Camp Wood, TX. We stayed at Camp Wood RV and Cabin Resort located off of the Nueces River. There is no water that compares to the clarity and quality of this spring-fed river! The campground has incredible cleanliness and you're allowed two tents per tent site. Because mine was on top of my Jeep, mine did not count. Amenities included water, and electricity, bathrooms with showers, swimming pool with splash pad, 300-yard golf range, pickleball (whatever that is) playground, basketball, and volleyball courts. Check out the video for all our activities and some incredible scenery to send us back home.
the devils, the frios, and many more are just as clear. Texas is full of amazing places like this.
Yes it is....a truly wonderful place to live!
The frio is being damaged more every year! Where should we start people build houses and house needing more water for the house. Don't forget the trash people leave and people going to the bathroom in the river. I pray people don't start going there and causing the same damage!
You need to look up devils river they are trying keep humans out and I dont blame them.
Too mamy people during summer
@@polakwteksasie6094they should make it illegal for large gatherings by passing a city ordinance
DUDE! That’s what I call camping
Your children are very lucky to have families like yours..👍
Nothing beats the most beautiful thing in the world. . .Family!
You got that right!
I used to float down this river as a teenager in the summer in uvalde. So much fun.
No other type of relaxation and meditation compares to working in the garage or floating the river! lol
It is amazing to see. Great Video
Awesome!
Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure! Glad you came to the channel to check it out. Take care!
I have been to the frio river several time and it is very clear too. It is good to see that other nearby river are clear too.
Wow! What an AWESOME vid! I really love the underwater footage. And your music selection is spot on. I'm looking forward to more vids like this!
Thank you Jeff! I really appreciate you stopping by!
4:26 always brings back memories of the frog when I would go to garner! Miss the hill country so much!
It's my favorite place to be!
This was a very good informative and entertaining video. Thank you for this.
Thank you for coming by. Be sure to subscribe and see the next adventure!
Don't tell everyone, too late !!
The Nueces River in the Hill Country is beautiful. The cabin and RV Park looks like it would be a nice place to stay at. Thanks for the information.
Thank you for stopping by!!!
Awesome Video!!! Great Family picnic! Like a comment said, the kids are fortunate to be in such a lovely adventurous Family!
Thank you so much!
What a heavenly place
Awesome share - thank u - adding to our list ❤

Awesome place. We were there 2 years ago. Loved it
Es un lindo lugar gracias por ese lindo video
Awesome video! Chalk Bluff is another awesome spot along the Nueces River!
I will need to check that out as well! Thanks for the info!
Beyond beautiful place !!!!!!!!! I visited here in August 2021!!!! That place is very awesome!!!!!!!
YES! I cant wait to go back
Thank you for a wonderful video! It is a great information. We don't know anything about Texas area. It is helpful! Thank you😄
Glad it was helpful!
Looks amazing! Added to bucket list!
🙌🏻🙌🏻
This looks really cool. It also made me look at a map and notice Kickapoo cavern state park not far away...I'm sold.
you will have a blast! what are you waiting for?!?!
Very nice video.
Thank you, I'm working on getting better with my editing skills.
A very well done video
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it
What a TREASURE.
*loved this video didn’t know we had places like this in Texas; I’m a Houstonian*
TEXAS IS SO AWESOME!
Simply gorgeous! Repeating what one person said: Your family is blessed that you all venture out into the great TX outdoors and enjoy it all! I am wondering what month you visited.
I believe that it was a September or October when we visited. Not too cool but not overly hot outside!
At 16:02....that shot of the moss flowing past the camera is well done....gives one ideas for all sorts of visuals...asteroid belt run comes to mind. Well done ;)
Wao! Que rios tan hermoso.
Thanks for the video. I almost bought land in that area. I ended up buying by Canyon Lake. I’ve been visiting the Hill Country since the 60s when I was twelve. Been in love with it since. I’ve hiked every trail in Lost Maples. All of west Texas has always intrigued me.
@egar4767 >>>The HILL COUNTRY IS IN CENTRAL TX.
Yes, the Hill country is in Central Texas. I live on the edge of it close to Government Canyon.
Me and my family stay there every year for the past 6. Its changed a ton but cant wait to make the 6 hour drive with my son now.
I love it! Can't wait to go back
We also caught a lot of perch and bass on ultra lite tackle. We also stayed at that same place and it was excellent
Great video! I love the underwater video. I gotta check Camp Wood out!
Yes absolutely you should. I can't wait to go again!
Gracias from El Paso 👍
Whats the addrss on that quince swimming hole? Awesome video and content
I want to live THERE 💯🌍
I've been here many times. Have a reservation in June 2023.
Nice! I can't wait to go back
I miss la quince swimming hole 😢 used to go there a few times!
I need to go there some time
What are you waiting on!?! lol
Is it cold water? Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
The water is cool, and is the perfect temperature in warm weather!
Not a problem. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for making this video. We are actually going there in June, first time there at the cabins/Rv place. Found the beauty of camp wood by accident, I wanted to do Fm 337 from camp wood to medina and driving there we saw the dam and the crystal clear waters. That was back in 2020 and thank you for showing Quince, just found out about it today. The last piece of your video is Fm 337 right? My wife didn’t enjoy the cliffs lol, I loved it.
I cant remember what road that is but if I find some time to look at it I can let you know later. It was a very steep climb to go that way towards San Antonio and back to Houston. Maybe Ranch road 337 is the road we took....to Leakey and Bandera if I remember correctly. We loved it there. Cant wait to go back again! Thanks for watching the video and subbing!
Did you write that song with a theremin I never knew theremin music was back in style.
Great video. On the flat grill for your camp chef, where is the grade catch. I’m thinking about switching from my black stone portable griddle to this camp chef.
The camp chef belong to my neighbor, I can't remember if it was on the side front or in the back.
I imagine if one walked the river banks long enough and knew what to look for, all sorts of arrow heads and other stone artifacts could be found.
Absolutey!
“None compare to this” lol he must not have ever heard of the Devils River
Ill be sure to check it out
Frio and Sabinal all day over devils, with regards to water clarity..
You’re delusional. The devils river is ranked number one clearest most pristine river in Texas. It’s all spring fed.
@@darrylmcginty1296hey where is the devils river at? I’d like to check it out 👍🏻
I have family that has a cabin out there it’s beautiful
We are going next week! So excited. I hoping to find the Quince, looks so beautiful and not many people. Did you access the Dam through Wes Park? We will head down to Chalk Bluff as well.
So the damn was easy to access, theres an exit ramp that leads right down to it and parking under the bridge as seen in the video. Very nice place to be at!
What a fun set up against the Jeep! But I wonder how the drought has affected this area :/ Greetings from The Woodlands!
Hey I appreciate it! Yeah I'm kind of wondering how all of these nice rivers have fared during this drought season
@@adventure_48 I'll report back from Boerne this weekend, we had rain!
Nice video I am not familiar with the Nueces River in camp but I usually go to Frio River. I am always trying to find that spot off the Clift but cannot find it. Where is that class area at? Is there parking
On River Rd, right past the family dollar. The only one in downtown Camp Wood. Blink and youll miss it!
@@adventure_48 Thanks🙂
While visiting Cape Cod I was invited onto a private fishing boat. At the dock someone,(Idiot), dropped an empty beer can into the water. It was 12 feet deep and I could read the can label with no problem. The greens variations of seaweeds went on forever and the clarity was amazing.
That sounds amazing. We recently visited Destin FL and the water was there was stunning. Crab Island is a must!
I’m gonna be here this Friday thanks to this video. How far is the river walking distance from the tent sites?
Not too far, about 1-2 minutes just bc of the bed rocks
I am no looking to burn in the blistering summer heat. What time of the year would be ideal to go camping and not burn. April, May?
its nice to be with on river bank... than k u...
Always!
Check out the Comal River, Frio River, and Devils River for clear water...
Will do!
Do you have the coordinates to the quince hole?
Does the Nueces go dry before Batesville LaPryor Crystal City area?
I have no idea. I would have to use google maps and look at the satellite imagery and see videos of the area.
Do the camp sites have electricity?
I just booked our family camping trip here because of this video, we will be here next month. Would you recommend any off roading places in the area?
Yes, those sites where we stayed have running water and electricity hook ups. That is so awesome! I'm glad that you enjoyed the video and planned a trip there bc of it! I don't believe there are any offroad places in that area. If you make it towards Austin, there is always hidden falls to visit or up towards the panhandle, you can visit Merus Offroad in Claude, TX.
@@adventure_48 thank you so much!!
Hv u ever been to the frio River? Concan TX. Or the blanco River?
I have been thru Concan a handful of times
What month did you record this please? It seems nice but still kind of cold. lol. Thanks!
Yes it was still a little cool out. I believe that it was during spring break a few years ago.
Hello anyone know of any places around austin that has cabins? Or any places closer to louisiana with cabins and amazing water like this? Tia
What time of year were you there? Btw, great video
We were there in June or July, a little towards mid year so that we could have cool mornings and slightly warm afternoons.
There are two other rivers that I would recommend that are at least equal in clarity. One is the Comal and the other the devils river
Yes!!!
The place yall were swimming at the dam, is it the same place yall were camping? Camp Wood RV Resort?
Yes it's right up the road. Just a few miles away from the campground
What was the name of the place where y’all were able to jump off of the little cliff into the water?
Quince Swimming Hole
Hi, I have a metal detector, do you know if is allowed to use it in that place?
I dont see why not
Where exactly is this spot at
Have y’all been back since? Any updates on the park.
We have not but we just talked about it last night!
me podrán decir la dirección de este hermoso lugar,gracias
We trying to find La quince , but can’t find how to get there
Its off of River Rd, right past the Family Dollar Store in town. You cant miss it.
exactly where is this ? thank u sir
This is located in Camp Wood, TX. Info is on the description and the comments as well. Thanks for stopping by!!
Where is this located ?
Camp Wood, Texas
looks like most rivers in Oregon
I hope I can make it up there someday! Sounds gorgeous!
Just without the cold and rain everyday.
What is the flow there now? I know frio is at 0
i have no idea, i did see a picture of jacobs well that was almost unrecognizable!
I visited the Jacobs well a week ago.. absolutely no water.. zero, zero.. nada. All dried. Very sad :/
Where is this place?
CAMP WOOD, TX
Do they have cabins there?
Yes.
Yes they have cabins to rent.
12:38 on the video you can see the small ones
How can I get there?
Is there a fee to swim the quince?
i think he said 5 bucks to enter?
Yes it's only five bucks per head and kids under 12 are free. Very humble and nice owners. They're using the fees to put back into the parking area and add tables for people to sit at. Things like that, well worth it!
They are all really far away from Houston.
Yep, but that's part of the joy of traveling and getting away from the city. :)))
Try the frio
Frio is great!
It’s dried up
i go up thr rgularly, got fam um there
awesome man! I can only dream of moving out that way someday
lts beautiful because thousands of people haven't destroyed! It! I am really so sad that it looks like the frio did 30 years ago before the people came and I feel like they have ruined it! 💔💔
Where
It's a little low due to the drought.
I would imagine so
Can you drink the water?
I tried it. Still alive. Lol, using a lifestraw wouldn't be a bad idea just to be safe though
I feel like the angry sheriff who was very upset with me taking my kids camping on the riverbank under a bridge at Barksdale blaming Texas Monthly for spreading news about this incredibly beautiful river system...shhhh...keep it a well kept secret! Lol
Whats the address ?
Its on River Rd right by the Family Dollar in town. You cant miss it. Theres no physical address for it. 29.669181, -100.021935 are the GPS coordinates
Why is it so clear?
It's spring fed. Natural filtered water beds. :)))
So before man there were no lakes😂.
You can drink this water, it is so pure.
I hate to ask but are there snakes in the water?
if there are, we didnt see any. They dont want to be bothered just as much as we dont either. No worries!!
What’s the address?
Amazing that people ruin such beautiful places by exposing them to social media
What would the world do without photography and mapping and sharing the beauty of the world? 🤔
Lol camp wood is NO secret.
Size de yazik tabi.
DEVIL'S RIVER TEXAS CRYSTAL CLEAR WATER MOST OF IF IS NATURAL GROUND SPRINGS FED
Yes, they are truly amazing!
What is the address
I need the address
Go see how much water there is to swim in now.....
Pretty high I'd assume??
@@adventure_48 Haven't been to a Texas Hill Country rivers lately, have you. Better bring a bucket of water to cool off and to drink. You do know about our drought, right???
@@rvasquez8057 I do not, I've been worrying about rain and flooding here outside the Houston area where I live.
@@adventure_48 A shame we can't take all that flood water from the I-45 area north of Houston and pipe it to the Hill Country and west Texas. that would make for a great infrastructure project. Same thing nation wide.
I live and work throughout the Hill Country and I can tell you most of those spots that were so picturesque in your video are dry or close to dry and somewhat dangerous due to Naegleri fowleri.
Water was low
can pets go ?
I wonder what the water will look like when all the secret fracking chemicals leach through the water table . . .
From what plant or pipeline?
