Extend Your Summer - Why September Camping Trips are Ideal
Summer might be winding down, but the camping season is far from over! Especially at San Marcos River Resort. September brings its own kind of magic, and if you’ve never experienced a fall getaway in Texas, you’re missing out. From peaceful mornings to festive weekends, there’s so much to love about this time of year. Keep reading to find out why September is one of the best times to book your stay!
Endless Amenities
The fun doesn’t stop when summer winds down! San Marcos River Resort keeps the excitement going well into the fall, with Texas’ warm temperatures making outdoor activities a breeze. Families can splash in our swimming pool, having a relaxing float in the river, let the little ones explore the playground, enjoy a friendly basketball game, or gather at the pavilion for quality time together. With so many ways to relax and play, your September stay at San Marcos River Resort will be anything but ordinary! Check out all of our amenities here.

Even better, we have plenty of deals that can help you save even more this fall!

Cooler Temps
After months of sticky heat and blazing sun, September brings the kind of weather that makes camping an absolute dream! Mornings are crisp, afternoons are mild, and evenings practically beg for a cozy hoodie and a crackling campfire. Whether you're setting up a tent, staying in a luxury cabin, or rolling in with your RV, the cooler temps make everything feel more comfortable. For those who love camping in San Marcos, Texas, September is the ideal time to explore trails, enjoy the stars, and sleep deeply in the cool air.
Back-to-School Reward
Back-to-school season is a big adjustment for both kids and parents, but a weekend camping trip is the perfect way to add something fun to the calendar! A quick getaway gives kids a reason to stay excited and helps families ease into the fall routine with something to look forward to. At one of the most welcoming family campgrounds in Texas, the vibe is all about connection, play, and fresh air. Kids can ride bikes, toast s’mores, and have a blast at all our amenities, while parents enjoy a well-earned breather. Even just two nights away can feel like the perfect reset!
Perfect Time for Adult Getaways
While families are getting back into school mode, September also opens the door for slower-paced, adult-focused getaways. With fewer guests and a calmer atmosphere, it’s the ideal time for couples, solo travelers, and friend groups to enjoy our San Marcos campground on their own terms! Think quiet trails, crisp mornings on the cabin porch, and evenings spent watching the sunset by the river. Whether you're craving rest, reconnection, or just a peaceful change of scenery, early fall is the perfect time to recharge in nature’s beauty.
