Cedron Creek Campground is located on Whitney Lake on the main channel of the Brazos River in Central Texas. The majority of campsites in Cedron Creek are 30 amp electric hook ups with water and 10 sites have water and 50 amp electric hook ups. Each site has a stand up BBQ cooker or a ground cooker/fire ring. The park also has 3 restrooms, showers, horseshoe pits, a trailer dump station, boat ramp and a playground.
Boating, fishing, swimming, canoeing and kayaking are popular activities at Whitney Lake. Anglers can fish for a variety of bass, crappie and catfish.
The campground offers 57 sites which all have either 30 or 50 amp electric and water. There is a group camp area located near the water and is within 100 yards of a large restroom with showers. The pavilion has a capacity of approximately 100 people and contains eight (8), eight foot tables, electricity, lights, a large (3' X 3') grill and eight campsites.
Cedron Creek is situated on the lakeshore among rolling hills covered with cedar, live and post oak.
The 12.5 mile Hopewell Trail is nearby. It allows hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. Visitors can choose to travel north on the trail to Kimball Bend Park, or south to Lakeside Village and Powelldale Mountain.
From I-35 in Hillsboro, take HWY 22 west, continue 12 miles to Whitney. At Whitney, take HWY 933 north for 3 miles, turn left on FM 1713 and cross the bridge, over the lake. Cedron is the first road on the left. Follow signs into the campground.
Love this park!!! There is no day use so only paid campers and their guests are allowed in. It's nice and peaceful and full of deer! We will be back when it's not 110 degrees 😝
Nice except for the exceptionally loud Mexican music from a pickup truck being detailed at the lake. I was unable to enjoy the park and left despite paying the entrance fee.
Really nice park with a beautiful lake. Great Park for boaters. We camped in sites #1 and #2 for quick access to the lake where we spent most of our days just floating in the water. Beautiful scenery. Our sites were nicely shaded with covered picnic tables. Water pressure was great for the camper and no issues with electricity. Deducted one star for the grass being a little high and the restrooms were a little stinky and messy.
We camp Whitney OFTEN! Out of all the times visited Whitney Lake and Cedron Park. I have never given a poor review until today. Park has been closed for months.
There is no Park host on staff and the grounds are not mowed and clearly have not been since fall. 🙄 Leaves are deep for snakes in the camp slots and grass is high in most areas. I get the bluebonnet are blooming but they are not in the WHOLE Park. Very disappointed.
Great park! Quite and secluded with easy access to the lake. Stayed in site 44 which provided a great view of the sunset and easy access to the lake for bank fishing. There are several places to put in a Kayak if so desired. The campground was about 3/4 full and still felt secluded. Park rangers are super nice and do patrol the park for unauthorized guest. Plan on using this park again.
