About
Governors Landing Campground sits within Amistad National Recreation Area near Del Rio, Texas, offering direct access to Lake Amistad's popular swimming areas. The campground features 15 first-come, first-served sites suitable for tents and RVs up to 28 feet in length. It is the only campground in the park with potable water available at shared spigots, making it a more convenient option than the primitive campgrounds elsewhere in the recreation area. Each campsite includes a covered picnic table and fire grill, with vault toilets available year-round. There are no hookups, but an RV dump station with potable water is located near the Diablo East boat ramp for campers with receipts proving park camping. The campground has paved roads and gravel surfaces in individual sites. Site capacity is limited to eight persons and one recreational vehicle per site, with a maximum stay of 14 consecutive nights and 60 nights per calendar year. Quiet hours are 10pm to 6am, and checkout is 11am. Picnicking at vacant sites is allowed from 7am to 3pm; occupying sites outside these hours requires payment of camping fees.
