Lost Maples General Store, Vanderpool TX

Nice store out by nowhere. Camping at Lost Maple State Park, needed to make a call with no service at the park and fine dinner at the food truck out front.

**Update: I stopped in there recently to get some of the locally made products and look at the little touristy items. The shelves were pretty much bare. None of the items that are on their website are in the store. It’s just a place to grab a drink, bag of chips, gas and bathroom. **
Great little gas station closest to Lost maples state park. Next station is 15 miles (from looking at maps) so it’s ok to get some here till you get to somewhere cheaper. The grounds were pretty to sit and take a nice break. They had a variety of snacks as well as some unique touristy things. You can get ice and propane but didn’t see wood. (Maybe I missed it)
The people were friendly and bathrooms were ok too.

I must return to truly experience this wonderful place of nature! We didn't stay long enough but where there for the right time as few visitors. Worth the trip for the history alone! Have to go back!

Awesome little spot if you need something. Local guy working the register was very helpful to us out of Towner's and even had a little local map printed out, since cell service in the area is spotty.

Good store for the basics. Higher fuel prices than normal because they are in a remote location, but it's good to have the option!

Come here about twice a year. Closes store nearby my grandmother's. Always friendly and helpful. Was shocked they had blue bell by the gallon, made my family happy

Loved, loved, loved this general store. It felt like the old times stores- the one my grandparents had on their property from way back. The shelves weren’t fully stocked, but had necessities. Bathrooms were just a single bathroom/1 person at a time (no stalls), but the woman’s/Does was clean. The gentleman who ran us up was so friendly and was really nice to my son who is on the spectrum. Friendly staff can really make or break a place. Also, just sitting outside to stretch your legs was great - pretty scenery and a few cool rides. We can’t wait to go back to Lost Maples and will gladly stop into the general store again.

Great spot to grab an ice cream or supplies. Nice spots to sit in front and relax and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

We couldn't go in, because it was sell out. They say we have to call to make reservations. The drive is nice, on the road you can see the beautiful autumn colors.

The store was cool but stocked mostly beer and very few diet sodas to choose from. Food truck was awesome. RV park does not have showers. Not a good thing for a camper without a shower inside with the hot weather we experienced during our stay.
Also the bathroom is a one person at a time which is a bad situation in the am. Lol

Fix the card readers at the gas pumps! Cashier was very rude because we forgot our debit card when we had to go in and hand over our card for gas. We are on a motorcycle that takes $5 in gas the year is 2020 people use debit cards and pay at pump fix your equipment.

A nice little store that has the essentials you may need for a quick getaway. People are very friendly.

Good friendly people they gave me a map while I was there and told me a few locations to go to and check out.

Great park with some challenging trails. Worth the cost any time but October and November especially.

A convenient stop while out riding the Three Sisters. Some shade, a bathroom break, and a chat with a local who stopped in for gas and a smoke.
