These U.S. Resorts Feel Just Like Summer Camp — and Are Fun for the Whole Family

"I found Camp Fimfo blends upscale cabins and RV sites with classic camp activities—think tubing on the Guadalupe River—plus a water park, mini-golf course and on-site restaurants; sites start at $125 and cabins at $206. After a successful first season in New Braunfels, Texas, the company is opening a second location in Waco with cylindrical cabins inspired by the city's cottonseed silos." - Kelsey Ogletree Kelsey Ogletree Kelsey Ogletree is a Chicago-based writer and editor.

From the moment I called Camp Fimfo and spoke with Ashley, I knew this place was going to be amazing. She took the time to answer all of my questions and made the reservation process so easy. I even had to call back a couple of times with more questions, and she was always just as kind and patient. We also had the pleasure of visiting with her a few times during our stay, and she was just as sweet in person as she was on the phone. Tracey was also wonderful—very helpful and friendly. My kids and I wished we had booked one more night because we didn’t get to do all of the activities! We made the most of our stay with the time we had, but we’ll definitely be coming back soon. Our cabin was perfect, and we thoroughly enjoyed our limo golf cart. The campground was beautifully maintained, and the services in the store and tavern were top-notch. The food was definitely not your typical bar food—it far exceeded our expectations. We loved cruising around camp, jumping on the pillow, mining for gems, playing pickleball, and swimming in the pools. The playground for the little ones was a huge hit too. We absolutely love Camp Fimfo and the amazing staff! Regards- Sherri Neidig Smart

We absolutely love staying here! The resort is always so clean, peaceful, and well cared for. Every staff member we’ve met has been kind and friendly. Tanya was one of the first staff members to start greeting us by name, she always has the biggest smile and goes above and beyond to make sure we have everything we need. Since becoming the housekeeping supervisor, she’s done an incredible job keeping things spotless and organized while still taking the time to make everyone feel welcome. Her positive attitude is contagious and really adds to the overall great atmosphere of the campground. Adam and Karson from the pool and Amber from the no dive bar have also stood out as above and beyond employees who always make sure we’re taken care of as guests! It’s rare to find a place where you feel both comfortable and cared for, but this resort and its staff make it feel like home. We couldn’t recommend it more!

Booked an RV site for this location and we had a great time - there was so much for our 3 year old to do and we had an absolute great time. The employees were all so nice and helpful. My only complaints 1. The bathroom/showers were HOT and dirty- nothing like taking a shower and get dressed and then feel like you need another one from sweating to death. Went to brush my teeth and sweated up a puddle just doing that due to it being so hot. Saw the cleaning crew go into the bathroom Sunday morning but they didn't clean it - had the same TP on the dispenser, the same dead bugs on the floor and the same trash - I did let the front desk know that though 2. Pool was great but people shouldn't be allowed to throw a football in it with so many people being in there - I watched a lady at the pool bar get hit in the face from a missed football catch. 3. Cabana is $200 a day to rent which is crazy so I asked for an umbrella to get some shade and they only have 2 and they were being used. But overall we had an amazing time and we will go back again The waterpark is great, the pool is big, my daughter loved the playground and the jumpy thing. The park was kept clean and it was nice and quiet I personally don't feel we stayed long enough to enjoy all of the amenities, so we will have to stay longer the next time

We spent a few nights at Camp Fimfo Waco in one of the Magnolia Cabins. Overall, the entire resort is fantastic in terms of infrastructure and atmosphere. It’s a super cool place for families, with so many fun activities for kids — especially around Halloween. The pool area and small water park are absolutely great, the pool bar has fair prices, and everything looks modern and thoughtfully designed. The cabins themselves could be amazing: spacious, nicely furnished, well equipped with everything you’d need in the kitchen, and a beautiful porch to relax on. However, our experience was overshadowed by very poor cleaning and maintenance. When we arrived, there was a shocking amount of trash all around our cabin — not small litter, but large pieces of Styrofoam, plastic, and other debris scattered across the bushes and the porch area. The freshly cut grass had been blown all over the porch and steps, and it was clear that no one had taken the time to clean after the last guests. For the price you pay here, that’s really unacceptable. I contacted the front desk via message, and they replied kindly and promised to send someone right away. By evening, nothing had been done, so I had to message again. A friendly staff member finally came by, apologized, and cleaned it up. But our neighbors’ cabin looked very similar — empty bottles, trash inside the fire ring — so it doesn’t seem like an isolated case. Inside the cabin, the same story continued. The kitchen was supposed to serve six people, yet there were only three forks available. We found an old sock next to the bed — not hidden under it, just lying there in plain sight. That’s something basic cleaning should easily catch. The public laundry area was, unfortunately, the worst part: every single washing machine was full of dog hair, and the smell inside the laundry house was musty and unpleasant. It’s obvious that cleanliness and maintenance are not being properly checked. It’s really a shame because the staff are genuinely friendly, and the resort itself is beautiful and full of potential. But if the management doesn’t improve the cleaning standards soon, this otherwise fantastic place will quickly lose its appeal and value. Also worth noting: we had three cockroaches inside our cabin on the first night, which was the final straw for us. In summary: amazing concept, great people, wonderful facilities — but very poor housekeeping and hygiene. With proper cleaning and attention to detail, this could easily be a five-star family destination.

Camp Fimfo was a ton of fun. The weather was nice enough to enjoy the pool and all outdoor activities. It seemed that this was the first hosting of Halloween weekends (not coordinated well and staff confusion). We would definitely return.

We booked a cabin for 9/7-9/11 for a little family getaway and to celebrate my birthday. We scheduled and paid in full in June. I will say I should have scoured the entire site and read every single page before booking- but no where in the booking flow is there any mention of “off season” where 90% of the park’s activities are closed during the week, so you can imagine our disappointment when we found out everything we had been so excited to do for months would be unavailable. Everything except for mini golf, the 3ft pool and the camp cruisers were closed. We were told the arcade would be open, but the entrance was locked our entire stay. The cabin was dirty and moldy. Not pictured below is the cockroach that greeted us at the front door first thing when we walked in. The front desk staff were generally unpleasant and unhelpful. They were clearly not interested in assisting us with anything. One woman whose name I regrettably cannot recall was kind enough to give us an extra few minutes free of charge with the camp cruisers once. The only things we truly enjoyed about this trip were times spent outside of the part exploring other attractions in Waco like the Dr. Pepper Museum. We cut our trip short and left a whole day early. There was no offered compensation or even an apology for the utterly underwhelming experience.

There is a huge ball field complex backing to this camp and the stadium lights were on the whole night! Plus you hear all the fans noise! The bath house is not Clean and has no a/c!!! The big blow was their camp was full but yet they rented the water park area to a company For their work party!! Really?????? We paid high Premium to camp here and then to have the crowd of a company picnic is not ok! Greedy!! The picnic tables have no covers, the pools have no umbrellas! This Waco location is a huge letdown! We love the New Braunfels location! Won’t go back to Waco👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

We stayed here for a long weekend in a Firewheel cabin. Overall our kids had a good time. The pool area is nice and there are many things to do around the property. However, in our experience the cabin was very dirty at check and not well maintained. Lots of spider webs and wasp nests around the exterior of the cabin. We also found ants in the loft and small bedroom coming out of the wall. The campground was very busy and there does not seem to be enough staff to keep up with all of the needs around the property. Lots of trash around the lawn in the mornings and overflowing trashcans at check-out. Most of the staff we did see around the pool area were friendly enough but mostly just sitting around on their phones. Just an observation. I think this place has great potential but the value compared to the price was not there for us. We would likely choose to stay elsewhere next time.

Granted, I just booked it two weeks before the Fourth of July weekend. For $125 a night for our RV....(where YOU TAKE YOUR hotel with you on wheels)... it was STILL $125 a night (I think they're trying to be Jellystone which they are NOT JellyStone !!!)...OK there are amenities we're used to $50 to $70 a night so that made sense; however, they still charge per person for the waterpark and other features plus they nickel and dime ($194 a day for Poolside Cabana... ours was full of bird crap and they came to barely wipe it off. It rained on us like cats and dogs underneath the cabana and we got rained on underneath the pavilion that we paid $200 for mention the TV never worked what a joke ) so almost $1500 later for a Fourth of July weekend we will never be back and then being a veteran coming back and asking for the veterans discount since they never called me back to get it in the first place since they don't make that readily available to make it legitimate to begin with when booking, they said well will apply discounts towards YOUR NEXT purchase .....what a nickel and dime operation!!!!! No thanks !!! There is a much better waterpark for $30 a day an actual waterpark..where I can go to a much more affordable RV park (since I am bringing my hotel on wheels to begin with ) and nicer RV park because they actually keep up the grounds better and there's more space for parking for a much better price at like $50 per night and I can do a waterpark for a day pass (@$30/day) so that's what we're gonna do in the future! When you go into a convenient store and they're charging double for a soda pop ($3.99) or a water that tells you a lot right then $ there....... Besides, they allow the public in so they can park everywhere so it's over flooded with other people that aren't actually staying at the RV park so you overpay for your RV spot that never got mowed or up kept properly and overpay for the RV park amenity to be crowded out by the outside public. It makes sense to go to another nicer RV park much cheaper per night and pay for a much better waterpark at Hurricane Harbor per day!!!!! Just Saying! Oh another important Mark the water wasn't even working at our RV spot and it was Waco wide apparently so we literally had to rely on the water we came with in our camper so barely got showers. Unbelievable! The Wi-Fi sucks ! So what did we actually pay for except that we well overpaid?

We came during the off season and I highly recommend it! Mini golf, the zip lines, basketball court, the pillow... all of it was awesome! Can't wait to bring them back in the warmer weather. Definitely give it a shot! The kids were worn out and we all had fun.

Update: The pool is apparently heated to 80 degrees- that is still fairly cold so we couldn't tell. The workers were talking about the broken pool bar water heater which is why that is closed. After I wrote the first review, our RV site was completely flooded because of a the sprinkler system and a badly placed sprinkler head. Unbelievable FIMFO! Site 632 has a sprinkler head literally next to the picnic table and in the middle of the site where people set up their camp. Sprinklers went on and we literally had to stand on the sprinkler head and call the emergency line to get them turned off. Our site is a mud pit now. Again- we feel stuck. They have offered us a new site, but any RV'er knows how long it takes to break down camp, repack everything, re-hitch to move a few spots away only to have to repeat it all again. Emma in management a gave us a credit for one night for our site being flooded. We opted to stick it out in the current site but had to spend $$ on tarps and a new outdoor rug to cover the mud. Sigh. I still haven't received a reply from Emma as to whether we can use the credit at the other FIMFO location- we are pretty done with the Waco spot.

Overpriced trailer park. Flat. No shade. No trees. Bar service terrible. Pool area is covered in trash/bees/food. Nothing like Camp Fimfo in New Braunfels.

This place is FimTastic! Great amenities like the pool, water slides, volleyball courts, basketball, pickleball, etc. The cabin was pretty spacious and felt very modern. Called a few times to ask questions and the customer service was always spot-on. Definitely will be back.

The property is quite spacious. Our river cabin was right by the river, but unfortunately, we couldn't see it due to overgrown brush that needed clearing. The cabin itself was nice, with comfortable beds and clean sheets. There were some extras like dishes, utensils, cookware, toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, and sponges under the sink. But no coffee filters! Boo! While there aren't any hiking trails, there are outdoor activities for kids. Our kids loved the bouncy pad and the playground. They also enjoyed the fossil find activity, where you can purchase a bag of dirt at the store. We spent most of our time at the pool and water park, which was the highlight of our stay and pretty much all they had in terms of entertainment. The store was well-stocked with fair prices. The food was good, although the pizza was a bit doughy. There's even a bar on site. It was a nice quick weekend getaway, but we wished there were more activities. It also seemed like they were understaffed in some areas. We met a few employees, and they were really nice. Cherish was very personable and helpful, and Andy at the bar was great. The other campers were friendly and helpful. We met a lot of people, and our kids enjoyed it.

What a fabulous family fun place to go enjoy in Waco, Tx. Actually you don't even need family. Just be adventurous and young at heart. There is so much to enjoy while relaxing. We stayed in our RV and took grandkids. They had a ball. So many fun kids activities. They have a cute little restaurant with good food and a darling general store. The only overpriced thing is bagged ice!!! They have everything you need to play tennis, pickleball, putt putt, woofle ball, soccer. Take your own pool towels. They have cabanas to rent which are great for shade but a little high dollar. I had a few issues with some cleanliness but when I voiced my thoughts they got right on it. Super fun craft activities for kids. Emily and Abigail awesome in that area. Aliyah was our bright sunshine gal at the pool. If you live close to Waco it is a super economical awesome vacay place because no flight costs! We went Monday through Friday and it was so quiet and nice.

Fimfo must have forgotten the motto WACO FRIENDLY. Half of our waves to staff weren't even returned. Store and restaurant employees didn't even 'see' us untill their conversations with each other were over. The customer does NOT come first here. THE grass on our site was long and the fire-ants took over. Did you forget why you are in business and who ultimately pays your bills? Time for an attitude adjustment from the top down. If you want to stay in business that is.

This place has gone down hill. I think the issue is there aren't enough employees plus the place needs a really good deep cleaning. The employees are so nice and polite and are doing the best they can. I paid for a cabana and it was absolutely filthy. We didn't even use it. We sat on the 2 lounge chairs in front of it and put our cooler on the ground. inside and outside of refrigerator was dirty, couch and tables had bird crap on them, someone's half empty drinks were on top of the fridge, there was trash on the ground by the couch and refrigerator. I looked at other cabanas to move to but a few had cleaning equipment inside of them, a few were just as filthy and the others were occupied by people who I suspect didn't pay for a cabana because there wasn't a sign with a name on it. The grandkids had fun but I won't waste my money on a cabana again.

Oh my goodness! Great customer service. From check in with friendly Tracy to Dustin and John taking care of our lot, clearing limbs, cutting grass and making sure us ladies have a sweet 1st camp out experience. Then Dakota shows up, turning water on at source. We felt like VIP''s in our lil Aliner. Store is great, supplied well. Pool and activities fun and very busy for 4th of July. We are already looking forward to next trip!

We've stayed at literally hundreds of RV parks across the country and this is the single most expensive one ever. They have lots of amenities that we didn't use--pool, general store, restaurant, sand vollyball, etc. and, if that's the kind of thing you're looking for, this might be your spot. We were in Waco for a wedding and needed a campsite in this part of town for four nights. We reserved a back-in site which, after some hard rains, was a lot like wet cement. We called the office to request an upgrade to a concrete pull through and, for a small fortune, they accommodated us. This place is huge and was only about a quarter full while we were there. Power is good, wi-fi is good, cable is good, the dog park was a muddy mess after the rains. One section has some shade but most of the park has small, newly-planted dead or dying trees. It's been a hot summer in Waco. As this park gets more established I think it will be better. For now, we'll go elsewhere.

This weekend we traveled to Waco and stayed here. I can say I wasn't disappointed. We stayed in the cabin that had 3 rooms which included 1 room with 2 bunk beds, 1 room with 1 bunk bed and 1 room with 1 full sized bed and 1 full bath and kitchen/living room. Where our cabin was located was right near the playground so when the kids were dying to go outside, we could watch from the patio. On the patio there was a picnic table and 2 lounge chairs. There was alot of mud on the patio when we got there and around. I am assuming Waco recently had rain. We went to the General Store and met John who was really helpful and answered my random questions about Waco and the Dr Pepper Museum. He also informed us that since we had a credit that we could use it in the General Store but not in the restaurant that was in the same building but on the other side. You would need to go to the General Store to also check out the golf clubs b/c you guessed it they had a putt putt course which the kids enjoyed even though there was kid drama. We attended the pancake bar for breakfast on our last day and it was great. It cost $4 and you got 3 pancakes and they had all the toppings on the bar for you. They have a bar that is also connected that we didn't go to due to all these kids in our part. I know me and my daughter will probably come back just us because they also have a pool that looked fun but sadly it was closed and it was November.

The bosses are like the SS. I asked for help hooking up my lines and the person sent to help said something insanely vulgar. i can't even write it...He apologized, got scared and begged me not to tell the bosses. I was seriously in shock. But I laughed it off. Then he came over out of uniform with beer. I never gave him any reason to think I was interested. He sent a vulgar text. i reported the text...I showed the text to the manager. Obviously this Kapo employee lied to save his job because after that they wouldn't tell me if he was fired or still employed so I locked my door before going to sleep in a $1200 space. yeah. $1200. There are no trees no shade it's more expensive then a 5 star Manhattan hotel and it was miiiiserable camping there. The fire ants invaded my bed and I ended up with pus filled bites in my belly button and one on the sole of my foot making me limp the next day. I had to ask for my grass to be mowed. it was up above my ankles. Jamie M. from Camp Fimfo trolls this website and comments. I honestly could sue Camp Fimfo for mental distress. I beg everyone to Ignore the trolling Camp Fimfo's comments.

**Update** 2 management representatives visited the site and did try to rectify the situation. It was very much appreciated and we were offered some compensation. The place definitely has potential just needs some work. It's a FimNO for me. I've never left a review an hour after checking in but, this is how bad this place is. The RV spot we paid for was a Riverview red carpet site. This was the exact opposite of what we got. The grass and weeds were at least 2 feet tall around the whole site which made the grill and river inaccessible and the water and electrical hookups barely accessible. I called the office to see if we could get another site (would have even settled for a cheaper site than what we paid for) but, all I got was an excuse a about a broken mower and "sorry‍" If you enjoy a jungle like atmosphere with visibility to a mini excavator at the entrance to your RV pad, then this place is for you. Save your money and support your state parks instead!!!!

Camp Fimfo was such a great experience! This was our first time visiting Waco and we're so glad we stayed here! We had 3 families getting together and the cabins accommodated us perfectly!! The customer service was phenomenal! Tracy was so kind and helpful when it came to adjusting our reservations and needing things during our stay. Definitely recommend for anyone traveling with kiddos. Our boys woke up ready to play every day at the playground, the jumping bubble and the zipline. Even the adults were able to hop on the ziplines for a race! We also made great use of the pickleball courts. We stopped at the general store on our last day and wish we stopped there first. They have everything you need (games, food, necessities, etc.) Only downfall was our cabin's floors were pretty dirty and the doors had issues closing but overall, totally worth it for the price we paid and all the amenities. We will definitely be coming back in the summer to try out the water park!! Don't hesitate, book your stay!! Camp Fimfo gave our family great memories!! It's incredibly close to downtown Waco, Magnolia Silos and Baylor! Perfect location!

We stayed here last year (2024). The park staff was really friendly until...the lawn crew ran into my bedroom slide with the lawnmower and caused some cosmetic damage. they wanted to have me get an estimate to avoid insurance, which I understood, and they were very nice while I was face to face. Once I left and got the estimate however they basically ghosted me. They refused to provide me with the incident paperwork or any contact information for the responsible person. I finally gave up and filed it with my insurance and it appears that Camp Fimfo Waco is denying everything because my insurance has processed the claim as an "at fault" meaning I am going to pay the deductible and my rates will increase. After talking with other friends that worked for the parent company, this kind of shady business is just part of the organizational culture. Trees all of the park are dead and falling every day, we had a limb fall on our site that would have killed someone if they were outside. On the positive I had firewood for the entire 6 weeks I was there. The heated pool and the hot tub didn't work, there was no "adult" pool time which made the swim up bar less fun than anticipated. Overall it was a disaster, that has taken over a year to recover from.

We weren't able to locate our camp spot as all the driver side markings were gone. A very nice gentleman in a cart took the time to show us where to park. He also took the time to explain why the markers were missing. The location is close to the places we wanted to visit. Too bad you have to answer so many questions to post a review when asked by Camp Fimfo. Why do they need to know my age and income? Just to tell them I liked their camp?

I definitely want to start by saying that this is a great idea, could be really awesome, and we hope that it is successful so that we can maybe come back. I know I was probably a Karen and I honestly hate that. Strap in for a novel. We have a toddler who loves to be outdoors. We wanted to do car tent camping but with amenities to ease us into the situation so we looked into Camp Fimfo. The first ''meh" situation is that I miscommunicated which weekend that we wanted to go with my husband. I booked the reservation on one afternoon, then the next morning I realized I booked for the wrong weekend. I went online to cancel and reschedule (there's not an option to just reschedule online) and I realized that they charged the $25 cancellation fee. I called to ask for that money to be refunded to me because I was just rescheduling, honest mistake. They didn't want to refund me the $25, like refused. I thought that was weird. All of us were probably thinking "it's just $25"? But in this economy that money matters and we were still planning to stay. Finally I emailed and they kindly refunded the money. Awesome. So then we arrived, looked great and cute. There was a chance of thunderstorms all weekend and we were tent camping. This normally wouldn't scare us away, but we arrived (after we checked in) to realize the tent sites were in a field that was muddy from the night before and overgrown grass that we had to walk through. To be totally fair, the girl who checked us in let us know they couldn't mow so the grass was tall. I just didn't realize it was just a field of tall grass that we had to walk through to get to our spot. Also our car had to be parked pretty far from the tent site and I prefer my car to be nearby. So we had to carry all our tent supplies and belongings through a muddy overgrown grass field to our site with a toddler. It's also hot and humid and we are all sweating. Not their fault but also I just want my car nearby. Sigh, right? Probably not the best. But we will still give it a go. After hauling all this through the field and setting up our tent, we went to plug in our extension cord and our outlet didn't work. Sigh again. We checked several outlets and a lot of them weren't working. Finally we find one that works, haul all our stuff over (car would be nice here ) and set everything up. Phew. We need to have some fun after all that. The amenities were great! Staff overall friendly, etc. After a couple hours at the pool, I'm looking at the thunderstorm rolling in, and back at our tent in the muddy overgrown grass field, and over to my toddler, thinking "I don't think I want to deal with all this all night if the mud gets worse". I call the desk and ask if we can just pay the difference to upgrade to a cabin. We really want to have fun. It was around 6:00p - 6:30p. They said they didn't have any cabins they could rent to us that night because their housekeeping staff went home? So, sadly I ask if we can cancel our second night (we were willing to give the cost for this night) because I just didn't think it was going to work out with the rain, mud, and tent. Nope! Once you check in, you can only reschedule, you can't get your money back for unused nights. Sigh again. We are leaving Texas for a few months and we can't reschedule at this time. So we ended up packing all our stuff back up, staying in a hotel, coming back and using the pool, then driving home. All that said, I know these policies are clearly stated in the fine print. It just sadly put a bad taste in my mouth and I don't think I could recommend tent camping here at this time.

We have visited the New Braunfels location a few times but this was our first time to the Waco location. We were disappointed in our visit. The weeds/ grass were tall and unkept. Much more than just from rain. We didn't have a picnic table, grill, or fire ring like the advertised. We emailed the night we checked in and got a response. The grass around our site was mowed and a table and ring were delivered. The mowing job was not done well and he seemed careless around people's things. The pool was cold despite the website saying it would be heated. The golf cart we rented didn't stay charged for the days were there. Now these are definitely first world problems but for the price we are paying to go "camping" we could easily go elsewhere for cheaper. Now to on a positive note, Amber and Brooke are excellent staff members! Very helpful, kind, and friendly! They were truly fun to be around.

Was pretty disappointed about the RV sites for how much they chargers for a pull through site. The pads were narrow and hard to navigate. The grass was super long. The sites were uneven. People drove way too fast by the campers. Which made it hard to relax with our little kids running around. The pool was nice and the food was good. But unfortunately we will not be returning. Too expensive for what you get.

We had a great day then 2nd afternoon with our Day Pass ( 2 separate pass purchases) at the pool and waterpark! Amber serving us at No Dive Bar was welcoming and attentive! We will definitely be back later this summer when we return to visit Waco family.

Waco is so lucky to have a Camp Fimfo! Such a fun, unique camping experience. The facilities and amenities are beautiful (and quirky!) and well designed and the campsites were spacious and clean. Our favorite spot was the pool area (specifically the swim up bar!) and the kids loved the water playground. We enjoyed quality family time here during a little getaway to Waco and can't wait to go back. The staff were all amazing and friendly too!

Fimfo was just what we needed for a quick one day getaway. Didn't have to leave for anything and A+ customer service.

Even though they are still in the middle of the build process, this place is great. The staff is so friendly and the place is clean. They have a fun Waterpark for the kids, pool with swim up bar, playground, jump pad, horseshoes, sand volleyball, basketball, corn hole, store, restaurant, and plenty of RV sites. There are no cabins ready yet, but I can't imagine trying to build this place without some kind of income coming in, so I get it. Their little store is great and they have so much for the kids to do. They even had goat yoga y'all!! My friends and I came here for a girls weekend and we will return!! Some TIPS for Fimfo: better labeled RV sites, adult swim hours from 8pm-11pm instead of just closing at 8pm, a tarp placed over the jumping bag, and more chairs around the pool that are not cabana access only.

We are having an amazing stay at this campsite, thanks to Lucas Armstrong. After an unexpected issue, Lucas immediately helped us, reassured us, and continued to check on us throughout the night. His exceptional service, personal touch, veteran service, and family at the campsite made a big difference. Kudos also to the front desk ladies and the gentleman over maintenance for their support. Despite the initial hiccup, we are feeling much better about our stay and time together as a family. Thank you to the entire team!

This was our second Camp Fimfo experience having visited the Hill Country location last year. CF is a great family spot with tons to do to keep anyone engaged. The pool was fun and bar tender Amber was great! All of the staff members that we met were kind and tried to be helpful. The cabin space was a similar experience as last time. The construction is lacking in quality and I wonder how they will withstand the test of time. The kids were very wary of the rickety bunk beds and it made for some tense evenings. The kitchen did not include all of the described tools and dishes as clearly stated on the website. This should be noted on room turnover and not relying on guests to facilitate the remedy. Only one of the seven beds was made. The air intake was completely covered with hair and dust. The cabin is rated for 11 people and there was an error with registration. We had only registered 2 adults and 4 kids when it needed to be 4 and 4. The other two adults cost us an extra $200 for the weekend. We were told that the cabin rental only includes 6 people and you have to pay extra beyond that to take advantage of the on property amenities. This is stated no where on the booking information. It would be an extra $500 per weekend over the cabin rate to have the number of people it holds. At that point, you could rent another cabin. We previously had done the mixology class and had so much fun! We had extras in our group and looked forward to a similar experience. Sadly, this was, what one in our group called, "Mixology for middle schoolers." After signing up as required, the class turned out to be the bartender standing behind the bar telling us recipes and then pouring the drinks while constantly running for supplies and looking frantic. Previously we had an entire session prepared with instruction, demonstrations, and then being taught how to mix our drinks. This was awkward, rushed, and nothing like we had anticipated. The bartender noted that he had just been told that he would be doing this class 2 hours prior. Perhaps better communication amongst staff and preparation for one of the busiest weekends of the year would be a step in the right direction for next season. The same problems with inconsistency and poor communication we're found at the pool and throughout the park. The cabanas were not clean and the assignment process needs to be fixed immediately. The pool opened at 10 but patrons were let in as early as 8am to claim their cabana space. Not cool. I think this is probably our last trip to Fimfo and I truly hope they do better. This is an awesome concept and family friendly entertainment that is engaging and creative is so lacking in our society.

This is a going to be a fantastic Rv resort in the next few months. It isn't fair to give it a full review yet because it really isn't completed. There is a lot of activities for families. The pickle ball courts are fun but it says it's open till 11:00 pm but there isn't any lights. The pool is nice but the swim up pool bar doesn't have a bartender. The hot tubs aren't heated yet. The dog park isn't open yet. There is no river access at this time. The zip line is super fun. This place has alot of potential but it is very much still under construction. Before making a reservation call and make sure the amenities you are going for are actually available at this time.

If you have visited this Hill County Fimfo first you will be very disappointed with Waco. The grass needed mowing, everywhere! Some weeds were from weeks of not mowing, I can give grace for a rainy few days but it was more than that. Upon arrival we did not have a picnic table or fire ring which were were part of our booking so we had to contact the office and have those delivered. They did mow upon our request but just at our site, not the entire property. It was advertised the pool is heated year round but did not find out until we arrived it was broken. The golf cart we rented for the weekend went dead leaving us stranded a couple of times. The restaurant told us they ran out of fries, pizza and queso. The highlight of the trip was the fabulous bartenders: Amber and Brooke. They were friendly and took good care of us and our kids. They were the best! It was nice to have a family friendly camping option for Spring Break close to home but for the price Fimfo has some things to work out before we would consider returning.

Great resort! We went over spring break weekend and had a blast! They had Sports activities that we could check out the equipment- pickle ball, basketball, soccer, tennis, and Miniature golf. There was a great playground. We also got a bag to do some rock mining. A walking path around a pond that people were fishing out of. Horseshoes and other games all day. Specific activities scheduled throughout the day- pony ride, yoga, candle making, fun with liquid nitrogen, and a t shirt tie dye to name a few. We rented a golf cart to get around. Great pool and hot tub with mini water park. Swim up bar and regular bar. Live music on Friday and Saturday. And a delicious restaurant along with an ice cream shop. Restrooms were clean and well maintained. The staff were friendly and very helpful. You can tell they like their jobs! It was a bit more expensive than other camping, but you are paying for the experience, and we got our money's worth. We will be back! Very dog friendly, also!

Let's start with the good. Nice pool and water recreation area. Staff were friendly and helpful at check in. Great concept following the Yogi Bear RV park. The not so good. Pool restrooms were too far from the pool. Restrooms and showers for RV campers were not kept clean. Muddy, dirty floors. Grass was 12-18 inches tall everywhere. If you are RVing, make sure to bring leveling equipment. The concrete pads not even close to level. Low in the middle which caused rainwater to pool under the RV. The road to the RV parking spots was more of a golf cart path. If you have large rig and back in, you will cut into the grass. They allow long term RV parking. The long-term folks had trash cans out, clothes hanging on lines and bicycles thrown in the tall grass.

This TV park is a mud hole. The sights are to narrow for a big rig. The turns are sharp and narrow. The hook ups are not well designed. You have to use extension. When we opened the door we had a mud hole. Putting a mat down mad us slip and almost hit our head on the steps. You can not walk your dog because it's to muddy. Lots of permanent residents with trashy sights. We stayed one night and left. Lost our money for the other 3 nights. Management did not care about all the mud and our dissatisfaction.

It didn't start off great. Check in was a mess. The girl that was supposed to be checking people in just kept staring out the window and finally came out after 5 minutes. She told us our site number but "didn't have a map" and told us just keep turning left until you find it. And they don't have escorts like KOA or Yogi Bear. Just on your own and good luck. We found it...out in the middle of the section of camp where the long term residents live. Toby the maintenance supervisor happened to be driving by and knew it wasn't right so he took it upon himself to find a spot closer to the activities so our kids didn't have to go to the opposite side of the camp to play. The GM did make it right and upgraded our spot but don't let the website mislead you. Premium site means out back in the weeds and dirt. They also have no means to make sure people don't just come in and out or follow the late hour rules. The people across from us had 20 people over every night and were outside partying until 4 am 3 nights in a row. Fun for them but it was not family oriented. The GM was aware but she continued to let them stay and it happened every night. Nobody answers the after hours number. Over all nice place, nice amenities but not all together family friendly.

Stayed here for 3 nights on Memorial Weekend and it was absolutely wonderful. Great customer service, pool and Squirrley's Tavern were fully staffed with very attentive workers. The food was great the whole day with an amazing Sunday breakfast! Definitely recommend!!

Be prepared for extreme disappointment. I had very high hopes for my stay at Camp Fimfo but our stay was very disappointing. I want to preface this review by saying I have spoke with management at Camp Fimfo Waco and their solution to the issues I had was to thank me for my comments and they will do better in the future. When I began planning our cross country move, Waco was going to be a good midway point for us to stop and relax for a bit. It was important to find a place to stay where we wouldn't have to leave property and could just hang out and relax before having to drive another 1600 miles. Camp Fimfo appeared to fit all of our needs so I didn't mind spending more due to the amenities that were being offered. Camp Fimfo sent out various emails and updates prior to the stay letting us know what to expect and that the bar at the pool would be closed. I contacted them after receiving that email to confirm that the bar and restaurant would still be open and the staff on the phone confirmed that it would be open for our dates. Upon arrival, we were informed that the general store and all of the bars were closed but then happily tried to sell us on using the pool in 45 degree weather and raining.... I should have just cancelled my stay at this point but I had no time to throw together a backup plan. We get to our "Red Carpet" RV spot only to find it covered in mud with an extremely narrow pad and very little room to make the turn into the pull through site. The sewer connections are far away from the camper sewer drain and I was unable to use them due to only having one hose. If the general store was open, I could have fixed that issue and gotten another hose... The weather was a problem as it was cold and raining for our entire stay. I don't blame this on Camp Fimfo. The problem that was not addressed in planning the site was how much water the ground holds and lack of drainage. This cause a muddy soupy mess that made walking the dogs pretty ridiculous. As much as we tried to wipe down their paws before entering the RV, they still tracked mud everywhere. Out of the 6 different pros that we stayed in on our trip, we had rain at 3 of them. Camp Fimfo was the only park that we had any problems with the dogs getting extremely muddy. When it came time for dinner, we had to take a 15 minute ride into town and find a place to eat and then drive back only to be cooped up in our camper the rest of the evening. It would have been nice to relax on property. When we went to pull out the next morning, I had to get out of the truck and find construction workers 3 different times to ask them to move their vehicles due to them blocking right of ways preventing us from exiting the park. We finally got to the front office and I had planned to stop and address these issues in person with personnel but at 9AM, the office was locked and there was no one there. I tried to call them around noon only to get a voicemail. The next day I called again and left another voicemail. The following day I called again and spoke with someone who informed me that someone had tried to reach me but had the wrong number for me. Hard to believe that when I left my number twice on voicemails and they had sent me numerous texts about the stay prior to us getting there and had the right number. The only communication I was able to get out of them was email. I gave them a chance to make this right prior to writing this review and their solution was to say sorry, we will do better in the future. I paid about $50 more for this park than all of the others on my trip and they offered less amenities than any other park. They failed on setting expectations prior to the stay and failed again when given the chance to make it right. The RV resort has the ability to be something fun and great but seems like they are going to fail due to the leadership there. I hope this review helps someone else in the future have a better experience than me. I guess the "we're sorry" apology is all I am going to get out of them for my experience.

Camp Fimfo was a great time! We went with our freinds for Memorial Weekend. Had a great time, the drinks were great. The drinks had great deals and all the staff were friendly and delivered fast service. Food was great! There are many fun activities for the kids and families there, great location and for a family environment! Definitely recommend!

We travrl 9hrs hoping to have a great experience at the camping resort and we booked a stay in the magnolia cabin and the space was very basic. The floors were very dirty and we only had enough sheets for one bed and none of the beds were made yet we were expectedyo atrip the beds at check out. They had the bare necessities. No extra toilet paper, dish soap(but we were required to wash all our dishes) no extra tash bags etc. We didn't have the proper utensils for cooking or grilling( and i didn't pack any because the website stated it was stocked kitchen) When we arrived they tried to charge us an additional $250 because we had 6 guest and the already paid. For cost of $480 only covered the cost for 4 guest. The overall camping resort was overrated and over priced. The waterpark area was small and overcrowded more suited for families with kids ages 5 and under. The only thing that was convenient was the river access and the on-site grill. I would not recommend this to anyone on a budget or anyone traveling a long distance. We were very disappointed with our experience.
