Vanderpool Texas

The small town of Vanderpool is located northwest of San Antonio on Farm Road 337 off US 83 in Bandera County.

The picturesque site of Vanderpool, which is nestled in the Sabinal Canyon surrounded by hills, was used by various Indians. The presence of Comanches, Apaches, Tonkawas, and Kickapoos was recorded by settlers, and Apaches were known to have established villages in the vicinity.

Bird watchers come annually from around the nation and foreign countries. Hunting has replaced cotton as the farmers' chief "money crop." The Bell Ranch, now Rancho Las Campanas, has been fenced and stocked with exotics.

In 1990 Vanderpool had one business and a population of twenty-two.
