Campground Overview

About Independence Park

How does a campground combine rich history, serene natural beauty, and versatile facilities? Independence Park Campground in Gonzales, Texas, answers this question with its unique location along the Guadalupe River, offering peaceful riverfront views, lush pecan trees, and modern-day conveniences for RV travelers to unwind.

This small, well-maintained campground offers 21 full hook-up RV sites with water, sewer, and 30-amp electricity. The park is particularly appealing for its scenic backdrop, with several campsites close to the river, making it ideal for fishing, picnics, or simply enjoying riverside tranquility. Visitors can stroll or bike on paved trails, access picnic pavilions, use playgrounds, or even explore the on-site 9-hole golf course. A community swimming pool and sports facilities add to the recreational charm, while the reserved yet welcoming atmosphere makes it perfect for weekend trips or quiet overnight stays.

Located just one mile south of downtown Gonzales on Highway 183, the campground is surrounded by the historic allure of the city known as the “Birthplace of Texas.” Within a short drive, guests can explore Gonzales’ museums, historic architecture, and charming local shops or immerse themselves in the area's outdoor activities, including river walks and birding along the Guadalupe River.
