Best Cabin Camping near Cedar Park, TX

Several cabin rental options exist within a 30-mile radius of Cedar Park, Texas. La Hacienda RV Resort & Cottages offers multi-colored cabins with basic amenities including electricity, water, and picnic tables. Leander-NW Austin KOA provides cabin accommodations with access to a swimming pool, hot tub, and laundry facilities. "Everything is so so clean. The staff is so nice. Lovely little cabins but they are close together—which is fine for me but if you want a lot of space idk," noted one visitor about the KOA property. Lake Travis Inn and RV Park also offers cabin rentals in a location convenient for exploring the Austin area.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. McKinney Falls State Park, Pedernales Falls State Park, and Inks Lake State Park all offer cabin options within state park settings. Most cabins require reservations, particularly during peak summer months when lakeside properties are in high demand. According to one camper, the cabins at Leander KOA are "clean, well organized, and quiet." Pet policies vary by property, with most allowing pets but potentially charging additional fees. Many parks operate year-round, though services may be limited during winter months.

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary widely—some provide only outdoor fire pits or grills while others include basic indoor cooking equipment. La Hacienda and KOA locations maintain on-site stores where campers can purchase essentials and firewood. Visitors staying at Lake Georgetown cabins should plan to bring most supplies as on-site options are limited. Proximity to Austin provides access to larger grocery stores for extended stays, though traffic can be considerable during weekends and holidays.

    Redbud Ranch RV Resort

    City Close, Country Feel

    A little pricey and the prices are subject to change depending on capacity(don't really care for that). Some reviews dock them for the train noises, but we weren't bothered by it at all, especially with AC running.

    📋 Site#305:

    🔙 Back In🅿 Site Pad: level, concrete, long enough, but a little narrow. Parking spot for tow vehicle next to it💧 Water- good pressure, high enough for filter and everything to hang down⚡ Max amp: 50- had a couple issues with Over Current at first, but it seemed to stay on after that. The Power Watch Dog tripped the power and did its thing.💩 Sewer connection was in good shape. It was a little closer to the front of the site, so I used 2 hoses📶 Wifi- available but I didn’t use it📺I picked up multiple channels just with the antenna. Even GRIT. I escaped the heat in the hottest part of the day.🔥 Fire Ring w/Grate Standing Grill Picnic Table: hexagon shaped. Looked like wood, but was the plastic composite material. Heavy. Two of the overflow parking spaces were on the side of the site, so it was handy. This site is on a corner, so it was a little bigger. There’s a little tree planted there that will give shade in a few years

    👎🏻 Cons: 

    The site was a little narrow and there’s no widening at the entrance on the back-in sites. You have to bring your good backing skills.

    📝 Park Notes:

    🚻 Restrooms- very clean and spacious. There are a couple ADA restrooms with showers that can be accessed by wheel chair and multiple household sized showers. Each one is male/female so it would be good for families with children.🚿 Showers had good pressure and multi-function shower heads. Glass doors. Very clean.🧺 Laundry facility had 6 sets of washer/dryers. Credit card or app. No cash.🐕 Off-leash dog park was big and had a separate section for smaller dogs. There was a nice dog wash station near the restrooms. No washing of dogs or rigs at the individual sites.🛒 There was a small store in the main office with souvenir items, a few RV necessities and ice cream.🚶🏻‍♀️ A trail runs along the length of the park along the creek. No getting in the creek though.🏚 Cabins with and without lofts. All have screened in back porches🤿 Pool with shallow end and lounge chairs in the water. A hot tub that will hold about 30 people. You can literally swim across it. Small splash pad area for the kids.Covered pavilion area with large BBQ pits.🔥 Large fire pit with chairs around it🤾‍♀️ Playground equipment, 2 volleyball courts, horseshoes, tether ball, hammocks, tables, porch swing(hanging from a tree), ping pong table🪑 2 group areas, 1 was large and had a view of the pool. Residents can use it at anytime unless someone has reserved it for a private event. They have coffee and condiments there from 8-10am. They had Donuts for Dad for Father’s Day(but open for anyone).🍩☕🦌 Wildlife: Various birds, squirrels🗑 Trash pick up at the sites in the morning Some buddy sites available on the ends of the rows Golf carts are available for rent or you can bring your own Restrooms/Showers/Dog Wash/Dog park are on one end of the park and the Pool/Volleyball/Playground are on the other end by the Office/Store/Event rooms. A golf cart or bike would be handy.🌳 No shade trees on the RV park yet, but young ones are planted💲 Prices fluctuate depending on the demand for spaces📅 There are events in the park on weekends👩🏻‍💼 Staff was very friendly and helpful. Always smiling.

    Everything you need is very close. Walmart, Home Depot, Salt Lick BBQ, Dell Diamond, Kalahari Resorts(Indoor water park), restaurants, dancehalls…it’s almost in the City, but doesn’t feel like it. We have had some fun Munzee events in Hutto, so there’s lots around if you enjoy scavenger hunts on your phone.

    Pace Bend Park - Lake Travis

    One of my favorite spots in Texas

    Pace Bend is one of my most favorite places to camp in Texas.

    Not far from the old (and new!) Backyard (a great place to see live music in the live oak capital of Texas), Pace Bend is a quick drive away. A perfect spot to pitch a bunch of tents, jump off cliffs, swim and barbeque. Maybe 45 minutes from downtown Austin (without traffic).

    I won't lie the cliff diving kinda freaks me out. Be careful is all I'm saying!

    There are several primitive campsites throughout the park with picnic tables, grills and toilets. Additionally there are 20 RV hook-up type sites that offer running water, electricity, restrooms and showers.

    Inks Lake State Park Campground

    lakeside cabin

    A camping cabin at Inks Lake State Park was our ‘home base’ while checking out some nearby attractions, mainly Lornhorn Cavern State Park. What a cool place that is! So many tours of the caverns and great things to see. We enjoyed our lakeside cabin at Inks Lake. Things were somewhat rustic but well maintained plus the draw of a cabin for us, airconditioning! We spend a day kayaking (rentals available) and another day checking out Devil’s Waterhole and some waterfalls. Great experience :)

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park

    Lake Bastrop + Amenities + Peace

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park Park is managed by the Lower Colorado River Authority. There’s a office at the entrance were one can pay your admission fee. Or if you arrive late, there is a self paying station that’s available 24 hours 7 days a week. At the small office one may buy ice, drinks and souveniers.

    This campground has a number of sites for RVs with full hook ups. There is a sewage dump station in the center of the park. Also, there are traditional car camping spots with drive up parking spaces, picnic tables, fire rings, grills and water and electrical hook-ups. There are restroom facilities are scattered throughout the park. At the far end of the park there are campgrounds for primitive camping. These have more basic amenities - there is an open space, community fire pit, community grill and some picnic tables.

    Not too far from the primitive campground there is a trail that leads to a nice view of Lake Bastrop. There’s also a community space in the center of the park which has, picnic tables, a fishing pier, open water access and an area that is roped off for swimming.

    This park is distinguished from the Lake Bastrop South Shore Park because it tends to attract campers with more basic needs. I would say that there are fewer families, less crowds and more peace and quiet.

    I found the staff to be nice and friendly.

    South Shore Park

    Quiet & Private

    Pros:

    • Quick check-in

    • 176-acre park with 40 campsites on the south shore of Lake Bastrop.

    • Level site concrete pad surrounded by crushed granite.

    • Aluminum picnic table, lantern pole, BBQ grill and fire pit with cooking grill.

    • Cleaned BBQ grill and fire pit upon arrival.

    • Very private as the site was surrounded by heavy brush.

    • Even though Spring Break and the campground was packed, it was quiet.

    • Firewood is available for purchase from Park.

    Cons:

    • LCRA $6 on-line reservation fee.

    • Long waits for toilet/shower. All are family type facilities with the toilet, sink and shower as one unit behind a lock door, so one showering person ties up a toilet. There are 8“units” for 40 campsites PLUS cabins.

    • Toilets/showers could of used more frequent cleaning as they are heavily used.

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park

    Lake Bastrop + Family Activities + Lake Life

    This campground is located a short distance away from the city of Austin, Texas. The park is managed by the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA). At the entrance there is an office where you can pay your admission fee and it has a small store where you can pick up supplies. If you arrive late, there is an after hour station to pay your fee which accepts cash or a credit card.

    This park has car and RV campsites. There are no primitive sites. There is a campground called the Lake Bastrop North Shore Park located 15 minutes away with primitive sites.

    The campsites are all very similar. There is an area to park your car and it will fit a small or midsize RV. There are water and electrical hook-ups which make it very convenient. There are typically plenty of trees for shade. Each site has a picnic table for dining, a grill for outdoor cooking, a pole to hang food or trash and there is a fire ring for a campfire. Of course they also have pad sites where you can place a tent. The pad sites will fit anywhere from a two man tent up to an eight man tent. In addition to the campsites there are a number of small cabins which can hold up to four people. The cabins have some basic amenities and the restrooms are nearby. Most of the campsites and cabins are only a short walk to the lake shore where you can catch a sweet view of Lake Bastrop.

    There is limited hiking with one trail that runs along the lakeshore for about 6 miles. The main attraction of this park is living the lake life. Near the campsites one can launch a canoe or kayak. But there is also a boat ramp and boat dock where you can launch larger sized watercraft. If you don’t have your own watercraft you can rent a canoe or kayak from the office and pick it up near the boat dock. It is possible to fish from a boat or the shore. There are a number of community spaces which are great for picnicking. There is a sand volleyball court. And there’s a special area of the lake that has been roped-off and is designated for swimming.

    I think that the only possible downside about this park might be that there are always lots of families and energetic kids running around. If you’re seeking peace and quiet this might not be your place. If you are seeking some fun activities, this place is great.

    I think that the Lake Bastrop South Shore Park is a 5 star campground for all of the facilities, amenities and considering that the staff are friendly.

    Pedernales Falls State Park Campground

    Hill Country Haven

    Another Texas State park that shines! Sites are big and even though pretty close to the other sites still feels very secluded! Picnic table with shelter and Fire Pit with grilling included. Restroom and Showers close enough to every campsite! Firewood and Ice sold on site just pay attention to hours of operation! The trails were well marked and great sites! River was a great way to relax after decent hiking! Lots of wildlife, Deer, birds and Hogs!!

    Black Rock Park

    Not a DARK SKY Friendly Campground

    Pros:

    • Very small park

    • Great view of the lake as trees/shrubs are minimal

    • Clean campsite except for the trash in the fire pit

    • Most sites had 2 sewer hookups.

    • Most sites had a nice distance from neighbor sites.

    • Crushed granite surrounds the site parking pad so no muddy mess after rain

    • Lantern pole, BBQ grill, fire pit with grilling grate and wooden picnic table at each site.

    • Extremely clean restrooms/shower facility.

    • Heated restrooms/shower facility(we camped the week after Christmas).

    • Restroom/shower facility sink had hot water and soap dispenser

    • Mini golf course in the park.

    • 2 bar signal AT&T

    Cons:

    • With reservations made 153 days prior to arriving for our 4-night stay, we encountered confusion by a rude check-in clerk who told us to come back at 3 pm (it was then 230pm and we could clearly see our campsite was vacant). Since the entry lane was down to one lane, we tied up traffic for nearly 20 minutes until the check-in clerk finally realized that we were camping and not checking in for their cabins. I’m not sure why she didn’t see our truck and 28 ft bumper pull trailer.

    •$6 fee to reserve on-line.

    • No mention on the park website there was a burn ban in effect, so no ground fires permitted, not even for cooking.

    • No site privacy due to minimal trees/brush throughout the park.

    • Campsite BBQ grill and fire pit were next to each other, so it would have been difficult to gather around the fire pit.

    • Good condition asphalt site parking pad was uneven side-to-side as we noticed nearly all sites in that condition with all requiring leveling.

    • NOT A DARK SKY FRIENDLY CAMPGROUND! Numerous street lights throughout this camping loop and unfortunately we had one directly across from our site#11 which lit up our site like daylight! Who camps under a street light???

    • Non-stop highway noise, even throughout the night, from Texas 261.

    • Doors on toilet stalls were only 5 feet tall.

    • Lots of large roadway speed bumps.

    • No hiking trails.

    • No park WIFI 

    We used Black Rock as our “jumping off point” for various Hill Country Holiday Light displays, which worked out very well. Kingsland is closer to the park than Burnet where there is a HEB, Ace Hardware, Dairy Queen and local restaurants. Closest Walmart to Black Rock is in Marble Falls, along with a HEB.


Guide to Cedar Park

Cabin accommodations around Cedar Park, Texas range from rustic state park options to private resorts within a 30-mile radius. The region experiences hot, dry summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F and mild winters, making year-round camping viable. Cedar Park sits at approximately 850 feet elevation on the northern edge of Texas Hill Country, creating varied terrain for camping experiences.

What to do

Cliff jumping at Lake Travis: Pace Bend Park offers 20+ miles of shoreline with designated jumping spots ranging from 15-25 feet high. Pace Bend Park provides both lake access and camping options. "My favorite part about this campsite is the ability to cliff jump into a lake. I love the water and this campsite was perfect for me," notes one visitor.

Waterfall exploration: Natural limestone formations create multiple swimming spots and small falls throughout the area. "The falls are pretty. You can walk upriver from the falls, bouldering for quite a long way. Classic hill country terrain," shares one camper at Pedernales Falls State Park.

Mountain biking: Several parks offer designated biking trails ranging from beginner to advanced. "We went mountain biking in shorts the first day and a backpack training hike the next. Nice trails," comments one December visitor at McKinney Falls State Park.

Kayaking and canoeing: Multiple parks rent equipment onsite for $15-25 per hour. "Grab a kayak and paddle up and down Inks Lake. Set up your tent near hiking trails and lake access," recommends a visitor to the area.

What campers like

Spacious, private sites: Many parks offer well-separated camping areas with natural barriers. "Sites were plenty big with electric and running water. The great part is the swimming," notes a visitor to McKinney Falls State Park. "The campsites along the cliffs are beautiful at night," adds another camper at Pace Bend Park.

Lake access: Direct waterfront sites available at multiple parks within 30 minutes of Cedar Park. "Lots of spots on the lake. They do have gazebos at each spot. Campground is very clean," reports a visitor to Jim Hogg - Lake Georgetown.

Natural swimming areas: Multiple limestone-bottomed swimming holes with rope swings and jumping areas. "The site that I had most recently had a beautiful western view over the lake and I enjoyed several beautiful sunsets," shares a Lake Georgetown visitor.

Year-round camping options: Mild winters allow for extended camping season. "Stayed here on Monday, December 21 (winter solstice) 2020. There were only four other campsites taken. It was very quiet," notes one winter camper at Pace Bend Park.

What you should know

Reservation requirements: Most state parks require bookings 2-3 months in advance for weekend stays. Weekday availability improves significantly during non-summer months.

Flash flood awareness: Several parks post warning signs and emergency procedures. "Made me aware of how serious flash flooding is here. Respect weather warnings!" advises a visitor to Pedernales Falls.

Limited shade at some sites: Krause Springs and other locations have variable shade coverage. "Spent a day by the water but our spot didn't have shade so we moved inland under the trees and it was much more comfortable," notes one camper.

Seasonal crowds: Swimming areas become extremely busy during summer weekends. "Very crowded, especially on the weekends. The lot does have electric and water hookups and sewer at the exit gate as well as showers and dumpsters," reports a visitor to Lake Georgetown.

Tips for camping with families

Water safety preparation: Several parks require life jackets for children under 12. "Please be careful swimming. If you can't swim, please refrain or wear a life jacket. There have been several drownings here," cautions one McKinney Falls visitor.

Kid-friendly water features: Graduated swimming areas suitable for various age groups. "The water was warm, and it was perfect for new swimmers with floaties and advanced swimmers. There's a place where you can jump off the rocks into the water," shares a visitor to McKinney Falls.

Wildlife viewing opportunities: Early morning and dusk offer best viewing times. "You might see deer, raccoons, armadillos and occasionally snakes. All of the wildlife should be left undisturbed," advises one park visitor.

Loop camping for kids: Inks Lake State Park offers family-friendly layouts. "We were on a small loop that allowed our kids (8 and 6) to have some room to roam, and we were just a 50 yard walk from the fishing dock and one of Texas State Parks newly renovated bathrooms," shares one parent.

Tips from RVers

Site access considerations: Some parks have size limitations and challenging approaches. "Getting in and out of the park was smooth for the most part just watch some overhanging limbs," advises a McKinney Falls visitor with a 40-foot Class A RV.

Dump station locations: Position varies by park, sometimes requiring planning. "Dump station is at entrance of park and park is fairly large to haul a portable dump tank," notes one Oak Forest RV Park visitor.

Extended stay options: Several parks accommodate longer visits with monthly rates. "We experienced the Austin winter storm 2021 and although we were without water hookup for 1 week we never lost power," reports one winter visitor staying at Oak Forest RV Park during an extended visit.

RV site selection: Request specific areas based on needs. "Sites are medium size, level with tables and pads. Not much road noise although you are not far off the highway," reports a KOA visitor.
