We float this river 5-6 times a year. Go spend four or five hours chillin in the water on a hot Texas day, not much better than that. We drive down from Austin, stop for tacos, and get there about 10-10:30. Inflate our tubes (R.I.P. Tubey and Floater 2022! ☠️🍩👻 And you will be replaced next year, but we had some good times together... 😭) and get in the river before it gets scalding. It takes 2 hours-ish depending on the flow, the crowds, and what you do along the way. When you get to the end and get out of that river, it's maybe a 10 minute walk back up to the park (highly recommend something for your feet on the walk back, the ground gets HOT) . We grab stuff from the cooler in our car, sunscreen up again before we get a 2nd float in. Pack up, stop at Buc-ee's on he way out and grab dinner back in Austin. Parking is $20 all day on their parking app. There is a $2 river free on weekends and holidays which pays for lifeguards, so that's cool. It's cheap fun at its best! I LOVE the COMAL RIVER!

$2 to tube on weekends over the summer. Free to put in during the weekday. You must pay to park there for the day(8am-7pm). Park has tennis courts and disc golf as well as tube chute rental $7 or tubing down the Comal river $2 weekends and free weekdays. You can put in to tube further up the river for free, if you bring your own tubes and don’t want to pay for parking. This requires a half mile walk, though just to put in. Tube from chute/Prince Solms Park to last free exit 1.5 hour float when river is flowing fast. Walk back to park isn’t bad but will take 20 minutes on shaded sidewalk. No shuttle from river exit to park where you left vehicle.

This place was great! This was a great starting point to float the river because you get to go down 3 tube chutes. The first chute is fast and you go around a curve. So hold on to your stuff! If you are connected to friends make sure you are connected properly! It is a really fun chute though. The second one is a little fast too and the third is slower. It was packed the first 2 times we floated it but it wasnt a problem. Everyone was cool and having fun. If you need to blow up tubes, they have a place at the front gates for $1 each time. Definitely can not wait to go again next year!

Come early and bring your patience. Parking is a nightmare but the float is worth it. We park one vehicle here and another at the end of the Public float exit so transport is easy. We paid $2 per person. No military discount and the Wristbands are strictly enforced by the police who are waiting at the inside of the entrance gate. Bring waterproof bags that can be tied down to you or your Tube and Make sure to leave lots of air so if you do lose it, it floats. I saw at least 3 people lose their car keys and cell phones while we floated.

This was a very nice place to float the river. The park Rangers were down to earth 🌎 and took the time to help me get the parking situated. Then I asked the staff members that were driving around on a golf cart , " where's the best place to rent tubes?"and they gave me 5 tube's for free . The water felt amazing but it was low in a bunch of random spots and my butt kept dragging across the rocks while floating. I suggest that you go early and float it twice but don't forget the suntanning lotion or you will definitely burn .😆 no joke
