Camp Fimfo (Camspot)

NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas - A campground in Texas has been declared the best in the U.S., according to a nationwide ranking by Campspot.

The campground, located in the Texas Hill Country, claimed the top spot for its "perfect mix of relaxation and adventure."

Texas' best campground

Camp Fimfo in New Braunfels was named the top overall campground in the U.S. in Campspot's 2026 Campspot Awards, in which they ranked thousands of eligible campgrounds. 

Fimfo ranked so highly due to everything that sets it apart from the crow, including a resort-style pool scene with a swim-up bar, and waterslides, along with high-energy programming that "turns a standard camping weekend into a real vacation."

The Port Aransas campground is located near the beach, restaurants, docks, piers, parks, birding and shopping. It also has a wide variety of accommodations, such as hotel rooms, cottages, and luxury RV sites, Campspot says.
