Float Season is Back — And So Are We!
After a quiet winter, March brings the start of spring float season, and there’s no better place to launch than Pecan Park Riverside RV Campground. The sun is shining, the river is flowing, and the pecan trees are starting to bud — it’s officially time to grab your paddle, your people, and your favorite beverage and hit the water.
Whether you’re tubing with friends, kayaking solo, or planning a weekend with the whole family, the San Marcos River is the perfect place to float into spring.
What’s Float-Ready in March?
- Water temps are warming up, and the flow is mellow and perfect for relaxing
- Canoes, kayaks, and tubes are welcome (bring your own or rent locally)
- Local outfitters offer shuttle service and rentals just a short drive away
- Wildlife sightings are common — turtles, birds, and maybe a fish or two!
- Pro tip: Weekdays and early mornings are extra peaceful on the river
Why Camp in March?
March is one of our favorite months because:
- The pecan groves are starting to bloom
- Cool evenings = cozy campfires and layered flannel
- Fishing is picking up as water temps rise
- Spring break crowds haven’t arrived yet — it’s the calm before the party
- You’ll spot plenty of early birds and spring critters around camp
Whether you’re RVing, tent camping, or just visiting for the weekend, March offers a little bit of everything — sunshine, stillness, and the start of adventure.
