We arrived on a Thursday afternoon and left on Saturday. We stayed in the Glamping tents. The air…read moreconditioning was very nice. The beds were just ok, but MUCH better than a traditional camping situation. We really liked the shelving units for all of our items. The mini fridge, microwave and other kitchen items were very nice to have. We were also very thankful for the fire pit, grill and picnic table. The bathrooms near us did not have any lights or a/c turned on. They worked and were clean, but didn't have any electricity. We used the bathrooms that were down a little form us. They did have lights and were clean. I was nervous about the bathroom situation. In other reviews, people were saying the bathrooms were a mess. This was not the case with our trip. I hope they keep this up. Having clean bathrooms is very important. I would not come back if the bathrooms were a problem. It had rained, so the river was running pretty good. The 3 hour float was only 1.5 hour(s). The tube rental was easy, $30 per person for all day. They take you back to the campsite and you can float as many times as you would like for the $30 daily rate. They also allow you to have multiple tubes for you and your ice chest at no extra charge. I highly recommend coming to Son's River Ranch.

But you can rent tubes, if you want to float the river. I happened to step into a pile of ants at the based of one of the trees. Wouldn't recommend that. These little guys also found their way into our picnic fruit, so make sure every food item you bring is secured in an iced cooler 100% of the time you aren't eating. The water is so fun, you won't want to leave. I got a little sunburnt, so if you're pale like me-make sure you constantly reapply.

We arrived at 8:55 and easily found parking in their lot. It filled up quickly though after that…read more Getting our tubes was easy. The owner or manager not sure was there and talked to me about the chute after I recognized him from their YouTube video. He was nice and informative. The exit at the end was quick and easy and shuttle ride back was quick. Only issue we had was leaving the parking lot there was a huge line of people waiting to get checked in blocking the exit. No employees were directing the line as to allow cars out of the lot. Otherwise we had a great time and would definitely come back.

Whew, get here early! By 11:30 on a Saturday, parking lot is absolutely packed. People parked (I…read morethink illegally?) in the university lot and I had no issues but I paid $5 on the QR code anyway to be safe. Tubes are $25 and come with shuttles. Bring your own tube and shuttle costs $15. Lockers are $5 for small and $10 for large and you have to wait for the staff so make sure you put everything in or take everything out in one go, ideally. Takes a while to buy individual tubes with the waiver so I'd buy your whole group at once if possible. There are small restrooms that are expectedly dirty for people floating the river. Most of the tubes were fine, somewhat dirty but got the floating job done. Lastly, this is unrelated to Lions Club, but it's about 25% of the people that actually follow the can ban and 75% probably aren't while we were there. Honestly ridiculous - just go buy a 64oz Igloo at Academy, it's $15. The tube rental is literally more expensive. We came with two Igloos a pop (one for water) and an extra tube for coolers. It's ridiculous that they have people kayaking picking up litter. Do better, folks.

It's definitely less crowded and hectic as some of the other Comal River rentals, and the staff was super nice. The only reason i probably won't return to Gonzo's is the drop off location. It's literally an extremely steep hill off the road. We had a group of about 15, and it was a complete mess trying to safely get us all down. Also, the float is a bit shorter, since their exit comes up first on the river.

It was about two hours long before we reached our exit to return. After you pay at a stand in the front, a van takes you and your group to the beginning where the river starts. This is much more fun when you have a group to go with. Everyone is so friendly on the river and you just lay there drinking beer. I do not know how to swim and they don't have lifejackets. Most of the water was about waist deep. There are sections with rocks that you may hit so keep an eye out. Make sure to bring water shoes if you can!

Little children like my granddaughter age 3 1/2 would need to wear floaties for your peace of mind but, parents are going to be with their children. My daughter and her husband rented a Kayak to go to the other side where it is deeper and there was a rope swing. My son in law loved that. You can take your own water toys and tubes. It is spring fed and it stays 72 degrees all year. It's still chilly but when you walk around you get use to it and it's comfortable. I have not camped out. We may go again for the 4th and we might camp out. It's very pleasant there. The cabanas are great. Lots of shade in the cabanas and you can grill, there are lots of chairs so you don't have to take chairs unless you want to. You will need to take food and drinks, snacks. All of the cabanas have hammocks which is nice. Beware of rocks though and be sure and take your water shoes so that you can walk on the rocks. There are some areas that are very easy to just walk into the water where the ground is level. I highly recommend this place for a fun family weekend or a fun day.

The "cabin" had a bad lean,the floor was not repaired correctly they screwed down vinyl plank flooring. And the bathroom well they had such bad leans it felt like it was going to fall over! Also all the amenities holders in the showers were heavily damaged and non of the shower drain covers would staying place,not to mention the broken shower heads and the way to small shower curtains that allowed massive amounts of water to flow into the toilet area. When we addressed these issues with the camp we got a weak apology that's all. After over 300$ I can say I'm never coming back to this camp or any of their other camps. Expensive lesson for sure!

They allowed us to push our trip out a couple of times so we could get from Maryland back out to Texas and it was worth the wait.

Having done other tubing adventures I can say this was in our top list for sure. Worth the money for a relaxing day on the water!

Will certainly be booking again with ZWay, they make it as seamless as possible to have an awesome day on the river!
