Haven't been to SA but have been to the Fredericsburg area. It's in the Texas Hill Country. It's much different than the flat areas of west/north Texas. Enchanted Rock is to the north of there. Luckenbach is about 8 miles from there. There are several campgrounds in the area. I didn't look far but this campground was $25.00 a night for fhu and cable. Nothing fancy but quiet, cheap, and next to the cop shop.
Hill Country RV ParkI think people in Rv's were overnighing at the Walmart right down the street from this park also.
Several shops and restaurants on the main drag in FB and an interesting place that has tons of quirky metal work and gift objects. Fun just to walk around in there. It's near the west end of town. I called it the junk yard on my first trip past but loved the place afterward.
I'm in the Houston area but I think before I would come over here I would swing down 90 east of Elpaso and go through Marfa (Marfa Lights), then Alpine or Fort Davis and Fort Davis State Park, then through Marathon. Marthon RV park (let us dry camp for $15.00) on the main drag has a beautiful courtyard/fire pit area and very nice owners. Tell them the guy with the Generator in the metal box sent you.
I didn't have time to go further south of there but if you can check out the maps. The lady in Marathon said there is a petroglyph or cave site further down. Don't want to steer you wrong so check it out. You could go down that way and on over to the Texas gulf coast, Padre Island National seashore, corpus Christie and then up through Victoria and on up to the hill country.
You may want to also go to Austin before Houston. I haven't been there but hear it's nice. Restaurants, night life. I dont know about going downtown depending on your rv. Others may say more about that.
The small town of Junction on US10 has a nice free camp park on the bank of the Llamo River.
Free is for meI dont know about veering north toward Amarillo this time of year but Palo Duro Canyo is nice. I believe it's the second largest canyon feature in the USA. A bit out of the way but you could also hit the Big Texan for the 72 oz steak challenge.
Palo DuroBig SteakSo......if you were all the way up there and swung back west or however you end up there, visit the valley of Fires SP in Carazozo NM. Check the weather /snow conditions first.
If you want to hit the ski slopes check out Ruidozo NM.
