  Big Creek Resort, Marina, & Campground

  One of my favorite local campgrounds

  I like this park because it's close to home. It's got a good space between sites and is broken into 3 or 4 areas so you're not just piled in like sardines. You can being 4-wheeled vehicles that have a steering wheel. No sewer hookups, but there is a dump station. Unfortunately, subsequent major floods have caused them to lose much of the tree cover. It's great when camping in groups though, which we do quite often. All sites have views of the lake. They have a really good fireworks display on 4th of July. 

  Type of Park: Private-owned 

  Check In: 4p Check Out: 3p 

  Site#79- Back-In

  $35 per night($105 total) 

  Water 20/30/50 amp 

  Picnic Table with concrete pad 

  Grass site. No rock or concrete base

  👍🏻 Pros: No trees to avoid 

  On the end of the line so no one is on the"front" side of the camper 

  Good area for camping in groups 

  Close to good swimming areas and store 

  Close to boat ramp

  👎🏻 Cons: Split-level site- table is down a slight hill from parking area. No shade 

  Across from the cabins on stilts, lake view is a little blocked

  No grill or fire ring at this site

  📝 Park Notes: Gates closed and locked from midnight to 6 am on weekends. 

  Closed at 10 pm on week days. 

  Can bring golf carts, ATV's(machines with steering wheels, not handle bars) 

  Dump Station- a little hard to get to for big rigs. Also hard to leave the park from there. You may have to go back into the park to turn around. 

  Park Store- has fishing bait and supplies, too

  Cedar Breaks Park

  Beautiful big sites

  The sites are large which means you aren't right on top of your neighbors. Lots of shade. Each site has its own shelter with picnic table, grill and fire pit. Electric and water but no sewer. The sites along the outside of the loop have lake views and are level. The sites along the inside are scary unlevel! Some of the big rigs were backed in and jacked up 4 feet or so in front. Saw a lady break her ankle stepping out of her camper. Be prepared to level your camper! I suggest odd numbers 19-35 and even numbers 36-42 as the most level sites with the best lake views.

  The park has hiking trails, boating and swimming access, but none of these are accessed right at the camp area.

  Restrooms are very basic with no hot water. They were clean but a little creepy for showers. I used the toilets there during the day and my camper shower and toilet at night.

  • Green space between the site and neighbors

  • Good kayaking area

  👎🏻 Cons:

  • The spot is tight getting in. My 10' high camper had low hanging branches on it(but they were soft, not stiff). Lots of vines/shrubs across from the site, so no extra room there. 

  📝 Park Notes:

  • Park does not have a gate, so it doesn't close

  • Dump Station for each camping loop

  • Restrooms/ Bath House

  • Boat ramp

  • Fishing jetty (pier is closed)

  • Group pavilion/kitchen available

  • 2 group shelters available

  🐦 Wildlife:• Birds: Shore birds, egrets, herons, cardinals, mockingbirds

  More info an video at https://www.denisevajdak.com/2021/08/my-birthday-weekend-2021.html

  Site 23 was better (stayed in this one twice). Wider, nice view of lake. Not very long, but easier to get into.

  Sunset RV Park

  Peace in Hill Country

  I typically rate campgrounds as they fit into 1 of 5 categories. This campground will be rated as a Basecamp — grounds that offer a comfortable home base that you’re happy to return to after a day of exploring the surrounding area. Ratings for this category are based on: Value to cost: 5 Overall grounds: 4 Utility of sites (hookups, layout, accessibility): 4 Local Attraction Proximity: 4 Reservation Process/Ease of Getting a Site: 5 Amenities: 4 Customer Service: 5 Cleanliness: 4

  A really lovely spot in Dripping Springs, Sunset RV Park is a small park in Hill Country outside Austin (this is not the one near Lake Travis). It’s clear that this is a destination spot for snowbirds to the area as most everyone was set-up for a long-term stay and we saw very few folks come and go during our one-week stay. The park is very quiet with close attention paid to COVID precautions (this is the first park we encountered that was 100% contact free check in).

  The park is built somewhat into a hill, so some of the turns are a little tricky and our spot was a bit uneven. The space itself was a very wide asphalt driveway with a picnic table and metal fire ring below a stone wall, perhaps a bit close to our neighbors as I wasn’t totally certain it was definitely ours to use.

  The amenities are pretty basic- clean laundry and bathrooms and a good enough wifi signal to allow us to use the internet easily. There’s also propane available on site. I enjoyed the layout of the grounds and each site was afforded some privacy thanks to the set-up and tiered spaces. The weekly rate of $300 was very reasonable.

  Excellent access to Hamilton Pool (make reservations!), Reimers Ranch and Westcave Discovery Center. Also about 30 minutes to most of Austin including SoCo, McKinney Falls SP and 6th Street.

  Reservations were made by phone with a very friendly woman and, as I mentioned, check in was contactless, so we really didn’t encounter anyone else aside from a friendly wave from folks maintaining the grounds in golf carts. The place is a nice find outside Austin and very close by to family for us, so we’re happy to have found it and will return!

  La Hacienda RV Resort & Cottages

  La Hacienda RV Resort and Cottages + Lots of Amenities

  I'm always on the lookout for new campgrounds nearby my town. It's nice to have a few places to escape to for a quick day or weekend trip. I searched on thedyrt.com for campgrounds nearby and noticed a group of listings near Lake Travis in an area called Hudson Bend. I decided to check them out.

  If you are looking for a short, mid or long-term place to RV camp or cabin camp near Lake Travis on the Hudson Bend penisula this might be your best option.

  The facilities are modern, clean and offer many amenities. And the people that I talked to that were staying at the park seemed to be friendly and happy with their choice of facilities.

  At the entrance there is an office that is open during typical business hours 9-5. Next to the office there was a small pool and courtyard. And next to the pool was a group meeting room.

  The park offered a variety of options from short, mid and long-term stays. One gentleman that I met and talked to said that he was a snowbird and had stayed at the park for the past four years every summer. This appeared to be the norm.

  There are RV sites that offer back-in parking and drive-through parking. There are also little multi-color cabins that can be rented. The grounds looked like they were well taken care of. There was some open green space and what appeared to be a fenced dog walking area. Each of the RV sites offered a picnic table and electric and water hookups.

  The only downside to this RV park was that it was not located directly on the shore of the lake. To access the lake one must drive down the road and visit the marina. Also, the park is rather large, so some might feel there is a lack of privacy. I wouldn't say that this park has great access to nature, it is more of a modern RV park.

  Overall, if you're a mid to long term vacationer you might really enjoy this site. If you're looking for access to nature, you might look elsewhere.
