From town, W 6.5 mi on RR-2222 to City Park Rd, S 6 mi (E). First day entry fee $5 per vehicle. $8 Fri-Sun per vehicle
I can't wait to go back to this park!
It's quiet, safe, beautiful and the best part: you can park/camp right in front of the water!!
Why only 4 stars? Bathrooms are too far away 🤣 I think there should be at least 2 facilities (one on each end).
Water and electricity hookups available. Great for fishing, camping, or photography
I had a fun time swimming here, water was cool and refreshing. I came on a Wednesday and we got in without a problem, but you do need reservations on the weekend.
I did notice a lot of fire ants ! So be careful with your littles, try to put your stuff on a bench table if possible, stuff was crawling on our blanket. Besides that it was nice and shady under the tree, lots of pretty shells to look at!
Beautiful trailer camping along the river. Functional but not fancy. In fact, showers are at the beach area and are open air with privacy! It was warm enough to use them in February...in the day time : )
I like camping at Local and State parks for the nature and economy. This is NOT a resort, and it doesn't claim to be. Woke up to bird song, river and duck sounds. Idyllic.
If you can make it by on a week day I recommend doing this for the solitude. It was very quiet, serene, and relaxing for my family to come on a week day after school is back in session. Well maintained space with plenty of shade, adequate restrooms + showers. Bring a picnic. No glass, of course. And make sure your pups are leashed and don't get into the swimming area.
Pretty place to enjoy camping within Austin. Also you can get campground reservation the very same day if its a last minute plan. We went almost at the end of Austin's fall season and it was a beautiful view along the river.
