    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

    Flowing over and around huge slabs of limestone, the Pedernales River can be turbulent. But most often it is tranquil, and a great place to relax and recharge. We are just 30 miles west of Austin. Come over for an afternoon swim or hike, or load up your gear for an overnight adventure. The river awaits! Choose a site with water and electricity or hike to a primitive site. Bring your group to the Youth Group Camp or Equestrian Group Camp.

    Thumbs Down!

    We visited this campground in early December and stayed overnight. We found the campground overpriced ($99), and practically empty except for what seemed like temporary area workers. But what made this place a “no-go” for us were the constant nonstop trains running throughout the night!
    Almost unbearable!

    Great for a quick stop along the traveling road. Pay over the phone, arrive before 5, hook up, rest and leave with no hassles.

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park

    Interesting park

    The park only has six campsites left. The rest have been converted to rentals of Airstreams or large tents for $150+ a night. There are three pretty good sites for large rigs in the interior and three camp sites facing the lake right next to each other. The trails and kayaking are great. Nice showers. I was here during the week and there were two large trailers and all the rentals were empty.

    Wonderful site!

    My family and I enjoyed our two night stay at site 2! peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Picnic table, fire pit, hammocks and the bathroom/shower is so close! There is also a large sink - perfect for washing dishes. You can park at the site - we set up two tents with space to spare. Right by the river - easy to fish or spend time in the multiple hammocks. The hosts are so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!

    Pace Bend Park - Lake Travis

    Views for Days

    Was absolutely stunning, it’s on a cliff top so your “backyard” is a small trail to a gorgeous overlook of the lake and adjacent cliffs. I didn’t expect to be given this view. The campsite itself is also fairly shaded and there are some cacti but it’s the best spot I’ve stayed at while being there!

    About This Campground Overview Cranes Mill Park is located on a long penins

    Nestled against the trees at Orrasis Ranch Campground, with Star Wars themed touches,"May the Forest Be With You" is all you could ask for in a"campout" experience. Whether on a layover from your most recent bounty, or just hiding out for a bit, this small rv is sure to leave a big impression. Step out the door, and explore. LOTS of space outdoors, a lighted entertainment and kid play area, plenty of chairs and tables for enjoying the fantastic sunsets, nature, firepit, and just 1 mile from lake access. In addition to May the Forest Be With You RV, other accommodations are also available at The Orrasis and can be found via the Escape link on our website. sp2

    Nice place, arrive early for instructions

    Beautiful location and facilities. It was difficult for late arrival to see and erroneously enter private cow pastures. Because we arrived late, we had no instructions on locked shower room. Get instructions be c or arrival. Quiet and relaxing. Worth it to spend more time hear.

    Canopy Luxury RV Resort

    Luxury RV Park worth the price.

    Honestly, the price wasn't too bad. Gated community with concierge service to your site. Most sites had some degree of shade and a decent amount of privacy. The pool and shower facilities are very nice and clean. The 2 dog parks (split into 2 sections each for small and large...so 4 dog parks) really helped keep our dogs entertained. Great rotation of food trucks and activities for kids. 100% recommended for a RV Resort stay.

    Pecan RV Park

    Hidden riverside gem

    This is an older park, but the river access makes up for the outdated but clean facilities. Our side of the park was along the river and had great shade. The other side had no trees and seemed to be more full-time folks. Facilities are a little dated but clean. There are tons of full-time folks, and I can see why. The river is right there. Great river access and space to sit and watch the tubers go by. Very few bells and whistles. Some folks said it was much more community oriented before the new managers took over. They used to do movies and food trucks, and things just looked better. But it was nice. It was expensive for what it was, but again... the river access made it great.

    Great spot close to Austin and Lockhart

    This was our very 1st RV park. It set the tone for all our spots moving forward. Clean bathrooms, clean pool/hot tub, clean laundry, well stocked store, gated community, great walking trail around a big lake and near big long horn cows. Met some big white neighbor dogs on the trail, but they kept their distance. Seems like the middle of nowhere, but it's really close to Austin, lockhart, Circuit of the America's. We stayed a week. Will stay again.

    Amazing Stay!

    Stopped here for a night driving cross country. I was blown away by the cleanliness of the park. The bathrooms and showers feel like you are in a hotel, not a campground, and all of the amenities are well cared for.

    The price was well worth it for this very quiet and maintained area.
