Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Marble Falls, TX

1,049 Reviews

Inks Lake State Park Campground accommodates pets throughout its tent, RV, and cabin camping areas while maintaining a clean, well-maintained environment. Campers with dogs must keep them on leashes no longer than six feet when outside designated pet areas. Pedernales Falls State Park Campground also welcomes pets in all accommodation types, including their yurts and glamping options. Both parks feature electric and water hookups with fifty-amp service for RV campers traveling with pets. The parks maintain pet waste stations near popular trails and camping loops. Each campsite includes a picnic table where pets can rest beneath while owners enjoy meals. Hidden Falls Adventure Park allows pets throughout its primitive tent camping areas, RV sites with full hookups, and pet-friendly cabins.

Krause Springs provides multiple pet-accessible swimming areas where dogs can cool off during hot Texas summers, though pets must remain on-leash even near water. The recreation areas surrounding Lake Travis, including Shaffer Bend and Camp Creek, offer pet-friendly hiking trails connecting camping areas to scenic overlooks and water access points. Sites at Shaffer Bend Recreation Area are walking distance to the sandy beach of Lake Travis where dogs can play along the shoreline. The private campground at Hidden Falls offers a range of accommodation options for those traveling with pets, from primitive sites to deluxe cabins. During spring visits, campers with dogs should be mindful of wildlife, as rattlesnakes have been spotted in the area. Pet owners should pack extra water during summer months when temperatures regularly exceed 100 degrees in the Marble Falls region.

    Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park™ Camp-Resort: Canyon Lake

    Family fun, better for littles than teens

    We came for the month of January to camp next to friends. It’s a family RV park and has nice amenities. We are just outgrowing the atmosphere. It’s nothing against the park, we just have a teenager. (14) I recommend it for any families with younger kids! If you have a teen who rolls their eyes as a bounce pillow and isn’t interested in miniature golf, probably keep looking.

    Our site is wooded and has a nice fire pit—but unfortunately right now there is a burn ban in Comal County.

    Pet friendly! Has a small dog park.

    Firefly Resort

    Very nice however ..

    We rented a tiny home and RV spot. It was wonderful. We also rented a golf cart to use at the resort. Our two day trip was$1000 but worth it. Had to pay$10 each for the dogs and$10 for my 5 yr old grandson which we knew up front and we're ok with. Upon arrival saw a dog park and a nice young man showed us to our spot and helped us back in. We then asked if the tiny home was pet friendly as the literature we received at the gate mentioned pet friendly units. The young man called up to the office and was told it was pet friendly. We had planned to keep my daughters dogs in the trailer with us but as they were crying for their momma and we were told it was pet friendly we let her take them with her. A fabulous trip and memory making Thanksgiving....that's where the goodness ended. After leaving we received a notice we would be charged a fee to deep clean the unit after we"broke the rules". Who spends that kind of money and the"breaks the rules"? We explained the man called and got cleared but we're told he denied the entire episode. So if you dare experience make sure you get EVERYTHING in writing.

    Berry Springs Park & Preserve

    Hidden gem near Austin

    Nice park and campground very near Georgetown, Texas. Berry Springs is a local county park and preserve. The Park is located just north of Georgetown Texas about 1 mile off Interstate 35 the main highway between Dallas and Austin. It’s a Great location with loads of open space. They have basic sites with covered picnic tables, fire rings, and hooks for hanging items. The former ranch has a lot of history dating back to the Texas Pioneer days. The park is located next to clear spring fed river for swimming and fishing. This may be a great option for those looking for a location close to Austin or a local family weekend. The camp was nearly empty in October this year which is the peak season for camping in Texas. The sites are best suited for tent camper, vans, and smaller trailers.

    Miller Creek RV Park

    Hidden Gem

    I first chose this RV park because it was further away from Johnson City (I wanted a quiet RV park that wasn’t too close to the busy traffic). I was not disappointed. My girlfriend and myself have stayed here twice and we will be going back in November. The office staff is friendly and very helpful. The sites are gravel/dirt but the are all level. There is a nice size dog park area for an RV park of this size. Me of the things I love is taking my dogs to the park first thing in the morning and watching the cows in the pasture next to the park through the fence.

    McKinney Falls State Park Campground

    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!!

    The Vineyards of Fredericksburg RV Park

    Very nice park

    Stayed there 3 nights during our visit to the Texas Hill Country. The park is 5 minutes from Fredericksburg. The pads are gravel with full hookups. Very clean laundry facility. There is a central area with dog park and place to walk. The reason for the 4 rating is that our site was at the top of the park with a downward slope which made it very difficult to level. Fredericksburg is a must see and so are the wineries. And great restaurants too. If in the area, we would definitely return to this park.

    Hidden Falls Adventure Park

    Trail Therapy for the off-road enthusist

    HFAP is an off roaders enthusiast's oasis. With 9ver 2200 acres of full size offroad trails there is surely something there for every vehicle and skill level. From mild stock level all the way to extreme rock crawling you can find it at HFAP. We met many great folks while at hidden Falls from every aspect. There were some awesome crawlers as well as extremely outfitted overland rigs out making a test run.. Always a great time at HFAP.. they haves3veral cabins/bunkhouses for rent but we chose primitive. The primitive sites are essentially just a big open field where you can kind of setup where you want. However, being N open area there are not a lot of options for shade as trrs in this area are limited. Ut if you are like us and spend most of the day on the trails you don't spend much time at camp until after the sun goes down anyway. They allow night rides as well and I believe all vehicles must be off the trails by midnight.. there is also a jeep shop at the entrance for the mishaps, a general store for forgotten supplies as well as a take out restaurant that while pricey the food was delicious..My interactions with staff was pleasant and they were helpful when needed but, stayed out of the way otherwise. They also have at trails so be cautious of them zooming around some of the park roads.. overall I highly recommend HFAP for the off road adventures.. camping is ok but not the best but, the trails kind of make up for this.. recently heard they were added to the jeep badge of honor trail program so I will be heading g back soon to earn a badge.. if you like offroad be sure to visit HFAP.. in marble falls TX. Overall worth the trip..
