Endless Attractions
The fun doesn’t stop when summer winds down! Camp Fimfo Waco and Camp Fimfo Texas Hill Country are packed with endless attractions that make every fall getaway unforgettable.

And if you're hoping to squeeze in a little more summer fun, you're in luck! Our water attractions remain open through November 1 (weather permitting). The swimming pool is open daily, while the Water Zone and Wibit are available on weekends only from August 10 - November 1.

Cooler Temps
After months of sticky heat and blazing sun, September brings the kind of weather that makes camping an absolute dream! Mornings are crisp, afternoons are mild, and evenings practically beg for a cozy hoodie and a crackling campfire. Whether you're setting up a tent, staying in a luxury cabin, or rolling in with your RV, the cooler temps make everything feel more comfortable. For those who love camping in Texas, September is the ideal time to explore trails, enjoy the stars, and sleep deeply in the cool air.
Back-to-School Reward
Back-to-school season is a big adjustment for both kids and parents, but a weekend camping trip is the perfect way to add something fun to the calendar! A quick getaway gives kids a reason to stay excited and helps families ease into the fall routine with something to look forward to. At a couple of the most welcoming family campgrounds in Texas, the vibe is all about connection, play, and fresh air. Kids can ride bikes, toast s’mores, and have a blast at themed events, while parents enjoy a well-earned breather. Even just two nights away can feel like the perfect reset!
Perfect Time for Adult Getaways
While families are getting back into school mode, September also opens the door for slower-paced, adult-focused getaways. With fewer guests and a calmer atmosphere, it’s the ideal time for couples, solo travelers, and friend groups to enjoy our Texas campgrounds on their own terms! Think quiet trails, crisp mornings on the cabin porch, and evenings spent watching the sunset by the lake. Whether you're craving rest, reconnection, or just a peaceful change of scenery, early fall is the perfect time to recharge in nature’s beauty.
