Oakwood RV Resort in Fredericksburg Texas: A Review of Our Stay.
Last Thanksgiving break, we stayed for two nights at Oakwood RV Resort in Fredericksburg, Texas.
It was our first time staying at Oakwood. We stayed in our teardrop trailer while our son and dog camped in our minivan.
Even though we didn’t use much of their amenities during our two nights there, we were nevertheless impressed with Oakwood RV Park.
Here is my review of Oakwood RV Resort in Fredericksburg, Texas. From the booking process to the day we left.

Check-in at Oakwood RV Resort
Check-in time at Oakwood is 1 p.m.
We came from south of Fort Worth and stopped at San Saba, about an hour north of Fredericksburg.
It was not our first trip to Fredericksburg, but our first time setting up our teardrop on Oakwood campground.
When we drove to Fredericksburg, we preferred the back road to Highway I-35W. Driving on US-67 S and TX-16 S/N will take you through small towns and see lots of roadside attractions between DFW areas and Fredericksburg.
Once we got to Fredericksburg, we stayed on TX-16 S/N until we turned right onto Tivydale/FM 2093. Oakwood is just a few feet away from TX-16. Downtown Fredericksburg is only around a 6-minute drive.
TX-16 is not new to us. We stayed at Lady Bird Johnson Municipal Park before, less than 2 miles south of Oakwood.
After turning to FM 2093, we saw Oakwood on the right-hand side. It’s at the corner of FM 2093 and TX-16 S/N. There’s a big sign at the gate.
The office is on the left. My husband stayed in the car when I walked into the office to take care of the check-in.
The lady behind the counter greeted me friendly. She found my reservation, grabbed the park’s map, and showed me the way there. Our site was across the restroom, and the dog park was on the other end of our site.
She also told me about trash pick up and WiFi. Then she said the park gave every guest a bag of ice for free.
The office was clean and bright. You can find brochures about Fredericksburg on the other side of the counter. There were a few slices of chocolate rolls and bags of dog treats on the table, but I didn’t take any.
Before I left the office, I asked her about dog-friendly restaurants in town that serve good burgers. Surprisingly, she recommended me a few restaurants that we hadn’t been to before. She’s so helpful.
Our Site on Oakwood
I chose a full hookup compact site because we traveled with a teardrop trailer.
Oakwood has nine compact sites. They are ideal for Class B and small Class C with a maximum length of 25 feet. Our teardrop is less than 15 feet long. Therefore it should fit in Oakwood’s compact site.
When looking at the park map, it appears that each site is the same size. A few sites look smaller than compact sites. But the map is not to scale.
We drove to our site at the corner of Cactus Drive. There are two compact sites there, under a heavily treed part of the park. When we got there, we were surprised to see our site, number 028. It looked so small, and we weren’t sure whether we could park our trailer and car there. There are two trees at the front of the site. That’s the problem.
I stepped outside and measured the distance between the two trees. Then I helped my husband when he backed-in the trailer. He made it, but it is a tight space.
Because the site is heavily treed, site 029 picnic table is closer to our electric and water source. But we didn’t use it because it was wet from the nighttime downpour.
A couple who traveled in a Winnebago Travato later spent the night at site 029. The site is a little larger, and unlike site 028, there are no two trees in the front.
The sites we are at look like a triangle. It is between Oakwood Lane, Old Fredericksburg Road, and Cactus Drive. It is for back-in sites with full hookups (50 amp and 30 amp). The locations are wooded, and every RV is parked under a tree. Although it wasn’t warm when we visited, I can tell that the summer there will be pleasant.
Oakwood Campgrounds Amenities
Oakwood RV Park offers impressive amenities for the guests. We visited end of November, and it was cold. Here are a few that we used during our stay:
– Clean restroom. There are three showers and three toilets in each male and female restroom. They put a heater in the restroom to keep the room warm. You need a code for the restroom, so unknown visitors can’t use the restroom.
– Fenced dog park. I do not know if all guests picked up after their dogs or if Oakwood cleaned the dog park. It was spotless while we were there, and the waste bag dispensers were full, too. I haven’t seen a dog park in RV campgrounds like this.
– Free Wi-Fi. There were only three empty sites when we were there, but the three of us didn’t have a problem with the Wi-Fi. The connection was great.
– Vallet trash. Every day from 8 a.m. to noon, they offer free trash pickup. You must tie the bag and leave it at the front of your campsite. We did it, and I saw a guy driving his golf cart around to pick up trash.
Here is one of the amenities that we saw other guests use, and I thought it was cool:
– Community fire pit and BBQ areas. On our way back to the campsite, we saw a group of people around the fire pit. We thought it was awesome!
And here are other amenities that I think are heavily used when it’s not cold:
– A huge swimming pool with lounge chairs and a pleasant shaded area.
– Cable TV.
– A therapeutic hot tub.
– Laundry facility.
– A children’s playground.
– Three rally rooms for up to 200 people.
– Horseshoes ad shuffleboard.
– Putting green.
– Hiking paths.
Check-out at Oakwood
Check-out time at Oakwood is at noon. Once we packed, we left, and no need to stop at the office.
Final Thoughts On Oakwood RV Resort in Fredericksburg, Texas.
Our little site wasn’t an issue in the end. The campground space was ideal for us as we passed the two trees at the front. If your car is as broad as our Toyota Sienna, you won’t have trouble staying at site number 028.
I like how many trees there are on our site. It won’t surprise me if this section of the RV park is popular during the summer.
Although the space between each site is not very spacious, every camper managed to extend their sliders without problems.
Sites 028 or 029 are ideal for trailer campers without a bathroom within the trailer. Hot showers and restrooms are just a few steps away.
Additionally, Oakwood RV Resort’s front desk staff was friendly and accommodating.
So, if you are looking for one of the best RV parks in Fredericksburg, Texas, Oakwood RV Resort is one of your choices. You can read more reviews about them on their website.
Note: I didn’t get paid to review Oakwood RV Resort Fredericksburg Texas. It’s based on our two nights stay at the park.
Happy to know that it is easy to reserve. I think the rates are reasonable. It’s nice that there is a patio and picnic table at each location + clean restrooms which is super important. Happy to know that the place also has free WIFI. Thank you for sharing for your experience. Bookmarked this for future reference.
Oakwood RV resorts sounds like a great place! I love that there are various site options depending on your needs and budget – and honestly, they all sound lovely. How convenient to have a showers, pool, trash valet, and communities campfires here, too. That would make the experience all the better for me, because I think it’s really the little things that make or break a vacation. I’ve always wanted to explore Fredericksburg and staying here at this RV resort would be a super place as a home base!
Having not much knowledge of camping with RV’s it was a wonderful learning Some of us friends mostly from US are planning a trip like this next August and then moving to Alaska after that. RV Resort looks lovely and what I love is the abundance of trees around. The other thing appealing are the hiking tracks. The facilities like children’s play area and laundry are nice to have when on a road trip.
Oakwood RV Resort in Fredericksburg, Texas, seems to be a perfect place to stay, especially as I love traveling in RV and love camping recommendations. It’s great to know that most sites are under the trees, as I prefer parking in the shadows. Also, it’s great that it offers amenities like a patio, picnic table, Adirondack chairs, and a fire pit. I’m glad the WiFi connection was great, as it’s essential for me while traveling. A vast swimming pool with lounge chairs is also for plus. I will add this resort to my next Texas road trip.
That’s quite a clear guide on the RV park. We don’t have such sites in India and seeing your pictures makes this a novel experience. It’s so sensibly planned out. There is even a cable TV! Maybe one day, I shall get to do this fun camping. I have only stayed in luxury tents, which are run by tour operators.
Oakwood RV resort park looks like a very spacious and relaxing camping area. And it’s nice that it has 8 variations of campsites coded in different colors. Also it has amenities like shaded area, barbecue fire pit, dog park, vallet trash, pool, spa meeting rooms for guests. And the reservation process looks quite easy. Moreover the staff is friendly and nothing like a free bag of ice for camping. I think tear drop trailers are so comfortable to park and we can spot your’s in the picture.
I like the fact that Oakwood Campgrounds has plenty of amenities that can satisfy different needs. The trees around makes it sound like being in nature’s lap. Add to that the friendly staff. I am already in love with the place. What a good experience for you!
I’ve heard so much about Fredericksburg, Texas, that it’s on my list of places to visit. I never thought about taking our campervan, but this place looks great! I love that it has free wifi (a must), and I HATE trash and love that they pick it up so often. How convenient!
I hope you can make it here one day. Remember! Campsite spots are gone quickly.
I have to start by saying I love the look of this Oakwood RV park with lots of trees and green space. We keep passing RV parks that look like parking lots and can’t imagine staying in one. A pool and a spa would make the stay even better. And I love the idea of vallet trash pickup!
Haha… Yeah, there are RV parks like that. One of the things I like about Oakwood is the trees.
Wow, this is very detailed. I don’t have a fire pit at home, but I think I would enjoy meeting new people around a community campfire while camping. This seems like a very well organized camp site.
A good place to make new friends.
