Austin Lone Star Carefree RV Resort

We really enjoyed our stay. It was very conveniently located off 35, and was only a $ 15 Über drive to the bars downtown. Knowing it was South Austin, we were a little nervous but we felt very safe. Will definitely come back!

Stayed for one weekend. Lower part is sloped and on gravel, better get ready for some leveling. the gravel was washed by a rain storm so we had a little river with a pool under our trailer. very bad wifi services, no cable TV, so why say you have it? Very clean restrooms and showers.
will not stay again.

This review is for our stay a few nights ago. Tidy, gated facility, right off I10, patchy wifi services, no cable TV, so they should take it off their website, aging laundry facility with at least one boarded up window & old machines. That said, I did a load & they seemed effective & were available ²⁴⁄₇. No change machine. Restrooms & showers, super close sites, concrete pads, nice size playground & sparsely stocked general store. Didn’t use the small dog park or the exercise room, so I can’t rate them. All the general amenities were there, they just need a little updating & tweaking. Saving grace was the super friendly staff — Johnny, maintenance & Carol, front desk. Genuinely kind southern folks.

After staying in multiple RV sites on our cross country road trip, we were sorely disappointed in this park. We booked our site over the phone for our pop up camper for a few nights. When we arrived, we were greeted at the gate by a friendly man ready to show us to our camp site. Everything was going well until we backed into our site. The hook ups were on the wrong side and 30+ feet away. There were two other slots available, but people coming in after us took the only remaining spot with hookups on the correct side. They did offer an extension cord for electricity, but we weren’t going to pay the money for a water extension. In my opinion this was pretty ridiculous. We paid for the site and yet couldn’t get the slot that would work for us. In a sense, it works out because I wasn’t looking forward to interstate noise for the next three days since the rv park is directly off the interstate. Before booking a site, make sure you know which side your hook up will be on since they don’t have standard sites.

The people here are fantastic. The sites are lovely, the have shade and privacy. We used this as a base to explore the hill country wineries, San Antonio in addition to enjoying Austin and found this location worked well for our day trips. Shopping is all nearby.
We will come again and recommendation this to others.

Incredible staff! All had a great attitude and they were extremely helpful! The park is nice and the shower facilities are outstanding. A five star rating is not high enough. Austin Lone Star rates a perfect 10!

Oh wow, where to begin? Are you missing some «fake nice» in your life? If so, you can find tons of it here! The old hens in the office are a total throwback to high school. Gossip. Drama. You name it. Be prepared to give these women permission for a full background check using your SSN# at check-​in. This didn’t make me feel safe, it made me feel creeped out.
Every morning the traffic on the access road (the only way out of the park) backs up as far as the eye can see, and it just craaawls. Getting to the northbound on-​ramp in the morning can take upwards of twenty minutes. At peak times and often entirely random times it can take over thirty mins just to get home from the off ramp. This is obviously not the fault of the park, just something you should consider.
The onsite roads were probably paved in the 80s, and it shows. If I was driving one of these million dollar rigs I would be totally insulted! Don’t get me started on the random half hazard speed bumps, if those weren’t molded by a drunk person they need to go back and pay double the price, because the effect was expertly achieved!
There is one restroom to serve the entire back portion of the park. The second of only two stalls features a sign: «closed until further notice» and it’s been this way for ages, (it’s literally boarded shut lol) Actually, this is probably for the best, the shower water in there fluctuated wildly from scalding to ice and the cheap white shower curitn was always covered in patches of furry black mold. By the way, shower shoes are a must at all times, don’t let anything other than the souls of your flip flops touch this floor, wet or dry. Yuck.
I could seriously go on.
Unless all this, (plus the piercing song of police sirens, drag racing teenagers and the soft red glow of the Adult Video Megaplexx next door) doesn’t bother you, come right on in, it’s only the most expensive place in town. Sheesh.

Friendly, clean, convenient and close to downtown. I stayed there three weeks this summer and had a wonderful time. They have special parties and events in the campground and before long I felt like part of the family. Wayne and Liberty and their son Scott were particularly helpful to me. I highly recommend Lone Star Resort if you are in the Austin area.

We stayed here for three nights. We were a little concerned when we first pulled in but once we were parked and checked out the Resort we found this place to be A very nice place to stay. Main road is newly paved and the others need to be paved but other than that its very clean, quiet, as long as you are not in the front section close the highway. Convenient to downtown Austin if you avoid the rush hours.

We are in our 3^rd month staying here in our 36′ class A, and we really like it. It ‘s lovely to be so close to the city. We are in the back section which is quiet, has large lots and plenty of tree coverage. The staff is all very nice and helpful with the exception of one sour puss in a red cart. Hopefully he won’t be the one to lead you into the park, because he seems to the be only one here who doesn’t have any customer service skills.
There’s a lot of activities happening up in the back room/​kitchen area of the office after hours. Live music, food, happy hour, etc. I have yet to attend any of these, but I hear good things from my neighbors. The office also has a workout room, and a small store and mail center. The pool looks great, but again, I’ve never used it.
We had to put the coach in the shop for a few days and we stayed in one of the cabins in the front of the park. This is a former KOA, and the cabins are the same. It was very clean and made it easy on us to just move in for a few days (cheaper than a hotel). There is a large bath house accessible to the cabins as well as the shorter term RV spots. The bath house is pretty cool in that all of the bathrooms are private and the showers are very nice and clean.
As long as there is space here, we’ll be back every year we come home to Austin. We’ve stayed at most of the other parks in the area. The price is higher, but the convenience of being in town at a *nice* park can’t be beat.
