Governor's Landing Campground — Hotel in Del Rio

For the price and location you can't beat it!

$10 a night, gets you an awesome view of Lake Amistad and a great stopping point before or after your visit to Big Bend National Park.

It is first come first serve, so make sure to get there before early afternoon. Most spots are uneven, but if you can snag number 5,6, or 7 you're in for a treat.

If you can't snag a spot there, there are several other campgrounds nearby.

This is the only campground with portable water. Vault toilets are also available.

Fishing is supposed to be great. Boating, water sports, etc. No hookups. Definitely no wifi. So what? A couple trails nearby plus the 6 mile dam. Nice photo points abound. Price is...
