    Listen to Onion Creek flowing over limestone ledges and splashing into pools. Follow trails winding through the Hill Country woods. Explore the remains of an early Texas homestead and a very old rock shelter. All of this lies within Austin’s city limits at McKinney Falls State Park - what are you waiting for?

    Think of the park as Austin’s backyard; we’re just 13 miles from the state capitol. Here you can camp, hike, mountain or road bike, geocache, go bouldering, and picnic. You can also fish and swim in Onion Creek.

    Onion Creek can flood after rainfall. Beware of the creek’s flow; contact the park for current creek conditions. Read through our swimming safety tips before you visit.

    Stay at one of 81 campsites (all with water and electric hookups). Or rent one of our six newly remodeled cabins. We also have a primitive youth camping area, for use by nonprofit-sponsored youth groups

    Overview

    Dana Peak Campground is located on a peninsula on the shoreline of Stillhouse Hollow Lake in central Texas. The lake offers a wide variety of recreation opportunities, including water sports, hiking, biking, horseback riding, picnicking, large group pavilions, hunting, fishing and more. The facility is one of only two reservable campgrounds on the lake and often fills up on weekends during summer. Stillhouse Hollow Lake was created by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers with the construction of Stillhouse Hollow Dam in 1968. The 6,430-acre lake is located 16 miles upstream of the confluence of the Lampasas and Leon Rivers, which flow into the Little River.

    Recreation

    With 58 miles of shoreline, Stillhouse Hollow Lake is an often uncrowded haven for boaters and fishermen. The campground has a four-lane boat ramp, and visitors who do not have motor boats, canoes or kayaks can rent them nearby. Families can enjoy soaking up the sun, swimming at the beach or exploring the Dana Peak Trails (located just outside the main entrance to the park) by foot, bike or horseback. Birding is a favorite pastime for many visitors with hawks, Great Blue herons, ducks, geese, many species of songbirds, bobwhite quail, Rio Grande turkey and even an occasional bald eagle, yielding year-round opportunities for bird sightings.

    Natural Features

    Aside from two campgrounds and a nearby day-use park, very little of the lakeshore is developed. The edges consist of rocky beaches and sandy bluffs. Much of the lake area is forested, though the campground is mostly grassy, flat and open with little to no shade. Most campsites are right along the water's edge; others are within a short walk. The lake has noticeably clear and deep water inhabited by largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and channel catfish. A man-made wetland was constructed on the south shore of the lake, providing an additional 10 acres of wildlife habitat in the area.

    Pretty park - popular too!

    This state park is a little outside of Austin near the airport. The park stays busy and it’s easy to see why– it’s really nice with waterfalls you can check out in the park and it isn’t far from the airport. We had a great stay here and will definitely check it out again if in the area. Although– watch the branches if you are in a bigger rig– we watched a guy hit one and mess up his roof. Also, if you will be camping in Texas State Parks a bit be sure to get the annual Texas State Parks pass– it will end up saving you a lot of money! Also, we went to a nearby market to buy what we thought was salsa(see pictures)– it definitely wasn’t and it was sooo spicy!!

    Bastrop State Park + Camping Options + Family Fun + Eco Lesson

    I actually would rate this campground 3.5 stars, because it is better than average and getting better every year.

    In 2011 a forest fire swept through this park and devastated over 90% of the piney woods. The park is still recovering.

    However, something that has never changed about this location is that Bastrop State Park offers multiple camping options and great opportunities for family fun.

    The park has car camping, walk-in camping, RV camping and even cabin camping/glamping. One of my favorite activities when visiting this park is to drive the scenic and winding tree lined road between Bastrop State Park and nearby Buescher State Park.

    There are recreational activities for kids such as a playground, swimming pool, fishing, geocaching and hiking trails. Many of the facilities underwent a remodel and now offer restrooms with modern sinks, showers and toilet stalls.

    There are sections of the park where one can see the devastation cause by the forest fire. It is a humbling experience for both children and adults to see the burnt but recovering forrest. There are also sections of the park where one can still stand under some of the old growth majestic pine trees. The walk-in sites are surrounded by forrest. The RV site has some of the tallest trees still standing. One caveat about the RV site is that you can hear the auto traffic from the nearby highway.

    The park office has a small store and sells camping necessities and souvenirs. The town of Bastrop is nearby where you can find supermarkets, stores and restaurants so you're never too far from supplies.

    Based on my recent visit to this park, I think that it still offers a variety of camping options, family fun and possibly an eco lesson for all of us.

    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.

    Sites are a bit tight; daily entrance fee not disclosed

    It's a bit ridiculous that you have to pay both a daily entrance fee, plus your nightly site fee at Texas state parks.

    The camping itself was ok. A bit confusing trying to find where you needed to go. Boat launch area looks like camping area.

    RIght by the lake, good for recreation.

    A Texas classic

    Bastrop State Park, even recovering from the 2011 Bastrop complex fire, is a jewel in the state. Wonderful Depression-era buildings and history, hiking, biking, and camping, including very good cabins and facilities for events, reunions, weddings, etc. Connects to Buecher State Park near Smithville. A great stop between Central Texas and the Piney Woods.

    Over 200 primitive campsites

    Pace Bend is one of the few reliable parks in Central Texas and near Austin that will always have an available campsite, while all of the other prks require a reservation months in advance. You can even show up late and find a site.

    Although, these sites are primitive, so not all of them have picnic tables or grills.

    Also, there is great mountain biking trails, cliff jumping and swimming.

    Pines!

    Bastrop state park is awesome! So cool how this patch of pine trees are in central Texas and can give you the feel of being in the mountains. A lot of the park is still damaged from the fire but seeing the new pine trees grow is very encouraging and beautiful in its own way. There's also a playground which was great for our little ones.

    Great State Park with Awesome Location to Austin

    This is such a wonderful state park! Great hiking trails, two swimming holes, well spaced out camping sites with electricity and water. We stayed here because it was close to the airport and had a flight to catch. It was only a 9 min drive. It's about 20 minutes from downtown Austin but still offers a peaceful nature retreat and a wonderful spot to cool down in hot Texas summers.

    We needed a place not too far out of town to test out our setups in prep for summer.

    This was easy to get to and we had plenty of space to shake things down.

    Loved having great cell service right at our site (AT&T), as we work remotely and needed to get a couple of things done.

    Have also hiked here on previous occasions and love the secluded trails and Texas history here!

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park

    Wow!

    We we’re traveling and needed a spot near Austin, Texas and love Lake Bastrop. There’s two Campgrounds one South and one North. The right one for us was South since we didn’t want anything too primitive. Thankfully there is plenty of trees for shade. And the view of Lake Bastrop is phenomenal. We did the lakeshore hike which takes a while since it’s 6 miles. W rented a canoe from the office one day and really enjoyed that.

    Cedar Breaks Park

    Good Enough

    Decent little park close to Georgetown, TX. Georgetown is full of fun activities and great food. Georgetown is home to “The Most Beautiful Town Square in Texas” and also is an official Purple Heart City. There’s reserved parking all over town for Purple Heart Recipients.

    The park is pretty minimum. No playgrounds and rocky shores that aren’t easily accessible. Expect the weekends to be super crowded, especially in the day use area (where the easiest accessible swimming spots are). During the week we had the park to ourselves. Friendly hosts.

    *Grab a spot on the outer of the loop if possible.

    *Watch out for RATTLESNAKES. We saw 2.

    Good local campsite

    Good facilities at this site. The restrooms and showers are first rate. We stayed here just one night. The front office and check in process is excellent. The campsites have water and ample shade. Not much to see in this camp but good as a stopover or local weekend camping. It’s close to Austin Texas about 25 minutes. The have some good moderate hiking trails and some interesting historical sites. The have a children’s playground and a nice swimming pool. The trees here are being replanted and restored. The views are not the greatest and some of the sites are near a highway.

    Fun for the Whole Family and a Great Beginner Campground

    Bastrop State Park has excellent facilities including hot showers, indoor sinks and toilets in modern, clean, and well maintained facilities, managed trails, and a pool! It can be a little noisy around the campground, and there is road noise as well from the highway. It's not really a "Nature Experience" but it is easy, clean, and fun. If you are a hardened backpacker you might want to go to a county park, but if you want to introduce your kids or partner to camping, this is the spot.

    You can reserve a campsite online, but plan ahead! They sell out. Also, if you are going during the summer months, beware! Texas heat in the summer can be dangerous. Best months are spring and fall.

    Great Local State Park

    The State Park is located within the city limits of Austin Texas. It has two waterfalls and a number of cool hiking trails. They have great camping options with sites for everyone including tents and camper vans. They have 7 designated hiking trails which range from easy to moderate. Onion Creek provides great fishing and swimming. The campsites offer some cover and privacy. You need a reservation during the busy times of year in the Spring and Fall. They have some boulder features for rock climbing and a bald cypress tree that is 500 years old. This is a good option for new campers or families that wanted to get out for the weekend. They have ample facilities from restrooms to visitors areas. I have it 3 stars because of overcrowding. Otherwise a nice place for the Travis County Area.

    Cedar Breaks Park

    A definite favorite COE

    This may be our new favorite of the COE's we have experienced. It's location close to Georgetown, Texas and all it has to offer, the shaded shelter over the table and the spectacular views... It's another amazing week of perfect lakefront living. The Cedar Breaks Park COE campground sits on the Lake Georgetown reservoir formed on the San Gabriel River. Our site is ideal for both sunrise and sunset color displays with stunning rocky cliff shoreline views. Super sweet spot with asphalt pad, 50/30/15 amp electric, water, fire pit, grill and a covered picnic table shelter with a path down to the perfect swimming hole...and 58 others. The 26 mile San Gabriel River Trail is accessible from the park and fishing for the anglers in your group. The nearby town of Georgetown has a historic downtown filled with shops, eateries, and fun stuff...plus the area has wineries, breweries, museums and entertainment. Austin is just 25 miles. The America the Beautiful pass makes the per night price a true bargain! Easy access from I-35 GPS 30° 40' 5.2680"-97° 44' 15.2412" l 2100 CEDAR BREAKS RD GEORGETOWN, TX 78633 l 512-930-5253

    Excellent State Park close to Austin

    This park is a great option for nature camping very close to all the attractions of Austin. The sites are spacious and they all have electricity and water hookups (some sites have 50 amps, most have 30 amps). All are reservable and very affordable at $24/$20 respectively, with greater discount if you’re a Texas State Parks Pass holder. We are out-of-staters and found great value in the parks pass! Second nights at campgrounds are 50% off and free admission to all state parks.

    The sites are very private and spacious and have nearby hiking trails accessible from the sites. There are several camping loops in the park, most of which have easy access to the Onion Creek hike & bike trail. Booking online is straightforward and check-in is virtually contactless.

    We spent time hiking the Homestead and Flint Rock trails and really enjoyed the peace and solitude, knowing we were so close to the metropolitan area. A perfect spot for enjoying the city during the day while staying surrounded by nature at night!

    San Gabriel River RV Camp Resort

    Neglected Park Grounds

    Unfulfilled obligations, improperly maintained grounds, lazy, unproductive, not motivated, inappropriate behavior with park females and just plain rude are all signs that San Gabriel River RV Park have bad park managers. Ms.On-Site Manager has said to more than one resident“if you don’t like it here, just leave.Your home is on wheels”. Below is a list of documented requests made thru the proper channels. Drainage ditch dug and left open for approximately 3 months creating unhygienic and unsanitary conditions breeding places for flies, mosquitoes, and other disease-causing organisms. Sewer leaks on the ground at the park owned septic tube, took 6 weeks to repair. The Texas Commission Environmental Quality has been contacted, and proper paperwork documented. Weeds growing 2 feet high, orange caution cones on side of street indicating danger; however, the cone is not visible because grass is covering the cone, large trees hanging on RVs, sewer leaks. Management does not read the electrical meters monthly resulting in incorrect reading and a guesstimate of voltage numbers thus overcharging residents. Allowing people to move back into the park that were kicked out in the past that did not follow the rules. Permitting a Beekeeper to retain beehives next to his RV, putting other residents at the park in danger of being stung or injured by the bees. Allowing residents to stay in the park that have not paid rent for several months. Using residents at the park to perform their responsibility and not paying them. If you are reading this feedback, you might think, oh, these people are just disgruntled x-residents. Why would you stay at the park? Management sent an eviction letter with reason stating“you are not happy” which was correct. We parked our Newmar at San Gabriel River RV Park about 10 days a month and wanted our site to look nice. When we would request maintenance, their response was always,“We’ll get to it”... And they never did. Taking into consideration all the above park maintenance issues and the eviction notice, we will move forward to another property where management listens, provides customer service, in a professional manner, maintains the grounds, and acts upon the requests of the residents with respect.
