Brackenridge Park & Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Brackenridge Park & Campground sits within the Lavaca-Navidad River Authority's campgrounds near Brackenridge Park system along the shores of Lake Texana in Edna, Texas, giving campers direct water access from a full-hookup RV facility that runs year-round. The setup is gated. Access to the RV area requires a code, and a security vehicle patrols regularly, which several reviewers specifically noted as a comfort, particularly for solo travelers or those arriving after hours.

Sites vary considerably in shade. Most RV spots sit in open sun, while tent areas tend to have more tree cover. The grounds connect to a range of on-site activities: disc golf, sand volleyball, miniature golf, paintball, a softball field, hiking and bike trails, and fishing access on the lake. One note worth flagging: swimming is not permitted, with a local rumor of alligators in the water. Deer are frequently spotted in the fields at dusk and dawn, and mornings bring open sightlines across the lake.

Rates run low, with dry camping around $10 per night and water and electric hookups at roughly $25, making this a practical overnight stop or short-stay base. Full hookups including sewer are available, along with showers, WiFi, and a dump station. Austin and Christel S. note "4 clean bathroom/bathhouse" and confirm the fishing lake access. Campers wanting a different configuration nearby can look at Texana Park & Campground, about 1.2 miles north.

Beautiful lake

Randomly found this campground. There are some shaded spots and some wide open areas. All of the rv area is behind locked gates with codes that change. There is a police car that patrols the area. There are trails, a dog park, the lake, wildlife, an event center up the road, a small ball field and .... Wish I had found this earlier in our travels

Perfect Rest

This was the perfect place to rest after a long 3 days of travel with a sick pooch. They have everything you would need and more. Disc golf, paint ball, hiking, bike trail, and of course fishing. If that isn’t enough if your there at the right time they have a rodeo complex next door.

Geared towards children

Lots of activities: frisbee golf (not golf), sand volleyball, miniature golf, softball, paintball, playground, hiking. Well maintained sites. Very few shade trees at sites, most RVs are in complete sun, but very nice grounds.

Birds, open and clean air, nice trails to explore. The RV section seemed cramped but the tent section seemed spacious.
