Although you don’t want to cut your riverside time short, you might want to take in some local color in Concan, while staying at the Frio Country Resort. Concan is a semi-isolated community situated 90 minutes west of San Antonio, in the southwest part of the Texas Hill Country. It has an abundance of popular recreation attractions, which the friendly local residents are more than happy to share with respectful and courteous visitors. The area’s valuable natural resources have been shared by generations for Texas Hill Country families for years, including the beautiful local nature trails such as those found at Garner State Park. The “Rio Frio,” as the locals refer to it, winds through the gorgeous countryside and community, as a popular tubing experience for the whole family. And don’t kid yourself—this water will definitely refresh you! The river’s very name, “Frio,” is the Spanish word for “cold.” At the height of summer, when you’re about ready to hug your air conditioner, the average temperature of the Frio River is cool and refreshing!
