We have stayed at several RV camps in the area. The amounts of rules at the Rio Raft Resort is ridiculous. At check-in they hand you a list of all their rules, and also have them posted every where. Then have someone drive around at least every ten minutes to make sure that you aren't breaking the rules. We had... More

We go to this resort every year for Memorial Weekend (4 years now). We love it! The staff is friendly, just busy! I would have given it 5 stars, but I don't like that we cannot bring our small dog during the summer months. The pool is great, always clean and well kept. We found the perfect site, but I... More

On a scale of 0-5 I rate Rio Raft Resort a 1. The only reason I give them any at all is because they had rv spots available when others didn't. Their tubes are horrible, falling apart because they use weak materials to assemble them. During rental they were very unorganized forgeting to load enough tubes causing a 2 hr... More

We just returned from renting Cottage #4 (King and Full bed). There were three adults and one child and the place was VERY spacious. Living room, full kitchen, deck with outside table. I especially enjoyed that we were RIGHT next to the playscape (and river) so I could sit on the deck and still keep an eye on my kiddo... More

We have stayed in an RV site at Rio Raft & Resort several times and have also rented a large cabin for a family reunion. Facilities and courtesy are wonderful! We also cannot say enough good things about the wonderful view and great "walk-about space" near the Guadalupe River. Of course, the fact that we are trout fishers in our... More

We loved it and will be back. Their cabins were very comfortable and stocked with the necessary items and the view from the from the river front decks was terrific . The tubing on the Guadalupe river was great, the river flow was a little low but perfect for the small children. Everyone had a great time!

We had seven RV spots all together and had a wonderful time. The place is clean with good river access. The staff is pleasant and there is security at night. We come the the guadalupe river a couple of times a year and this was our first stay with Rio Raft Co. We will definatley come back!

My wife and I took our 6 and 4 year old to Rio this year (2011) for their first river trip. I had been many times as a tent camper. We decided to rent a cabin and I wasn't sure what to expect. It was perfect. Our private patio was aprox. 150 yards from the river front. Awesome view. The... More
