Open Now

James Kiehl Natural Area in Comfort is a peaceful nature park renowned for its convenient access to the Guadalupe River. Visitors can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities including swimming, kayaking, or simply relaxing in the serene environment.

Visitors share a mix of excitement for featured swimming holes and deep concern regarding the current Texas drought, which has led to low water levels and stagnant pools. While some locations remain popular, many commenters warn of potential bacteria risks and suggest alternative spots with clearer water for a safer experience.

  • Verify river flow rates before planning a kayaking trip.
  • Avoid swimming in areas with low, non-circulating water to prevent bacteria exposure.
  • Consider the park for hiking or picnicking if the river is too low for water sports.
  • Seek out alternative river access points if the main pools appear murky.
