Along the San Marcos River in central Texas, Pecan RV Park sits on waterfront property that draws both overnight visitors and long-term residents. The campground accommodates RVs up to 50 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections. Staff assists with backing into sites, which proves helpful given the tight spacing between spots.
The park divides into two distinct sections. River-facing sites benefit from mature shade trees and direct water access, while the opposite side lacks tree cover and houses more permanent residents. "Facilities are a little dated but clean," notes Heather O., reflecting the campground's older infrastructure that remains functional. Sites pack closely together, with some campers reporting difficulty opening awnings due to limited space.
River access serves as the primary draw here. Tubing rentals allow visitors to float the San Marcos River, and the campground provides viewing areas to watch other tubers drift past. The on-site store stocks basic supplies, though amenities like the pool and hot tub show their age according to recent visitors.
For those planning river activities, the campground's location offers easy launching points. However, expect a community atmosphere with numerous full-time residents and prepare for premium pricing that reflects the waterfront location rather than facility upgrades.
