Best Campgrounds near Marble Falls, TX

1,033 Reviews

The Hill Country town of Marble Falls has several good camping areas within a short drive. Campers can head 18 miles to Pedernales Falls State Park Campground if they want some good fishing spots. About 13 miles from town, Inks Lake State Park Campground has hiking trails and swimming areas right by the campsites. Lake Travis campers often pick Pace Bend Park, which has many spots where you can easily get to the water. All these parks have rules about fires and how long you can stay, so it's smart to check before going. Since deer and other animals are common around Marble Falls, keep your food locked up at night. The roads to most campgrounds stay in good shape year-round, though they can get muddy after heavy rains. You should make reservations ahead of time, particularly on summer weekends when these places fill up fast. Marble Falls works well for both quick trips and longer camping vacations.
