What to do between San Antonio and Carlsbad Caverns

I was thinking of visiting Carlsbad Caverns when heading west from San Antonio but the 7 hour drive is a bit long to handle in one shot. Do you know of any interesting stops between the two?
  • Stop in Kerrville, TX

    Buckhorn Lake RV Resort is great. We stayed there 3 months. There is an Adult section in the Resort and beautiful motorhome sites.

    Nice restaurants in Kerrville to choose from and an art museum, I think it was free. Drive over to Camp Verde just outside Kerrville for an awesome lunch and upscale shopping all in one building.


    Drive over to Fredericksburg from Kerrville for a day trip. Have lunch, shop, see the museum in town.

    Count tumble weeds blowing across I10 I guess...
  • When we went to Carlsbad from San Antonio, we drove the whole way. There is not much in that stretch of I-10.
