  Big Creek Resort, Marina, & Campground

  One of my favorite local campgrounds

  I like this park because it's close to home. It's got a good space between sites and is broken into 3 or 4 areas so you're not just piled in like sardines. You can being 4-wheeled vehicles that have a steering wheel. No sewer hookups, but there is a dump station. Unfortunately, subsequent major floods have caused them to lose much of the tree cover. It's great when camping in groups though, which we do quite often. All sites have views of the lake. They have a really good fireworks display on 4th of July. 

  Type of Park: Private-owned 

  Check In: 4p Check Out: 3p 

  Site#79- Back-In

  $35 per night($105 total) 

  Water 20/30/50 amp 

  Picnic Table with concrete pad 

  Grass site. No rock or concrete base

  👍🏻 Pros: No trees to avoid 

  On the end of the line so no one is on the"front" side of the camper 

  Good area for camping in groups 

  Close to good swimming areas and store 

  Close to boat ramp

  👎🏻 Cons: Split-level site- table is down a slight hill from parking area. No shade 

  Across from the cabins on stilts, lake view is a little blocked 

  Cabins are being refurbished and the equipment and materials are stacked near the site(and some construction noise) 

  No grill or fire ring at this site

  📝 Park Notes: Gates closed and locked from midnight to 6 am on weekends. 

  Closed at 10 pm on week days. 

  Can bring golf carts, ATV's(machines with steering wheels, not handle bars) 

  Dump Station- a little hard to get to for big rigs. Also hard to leave the park from there. You may have to go back into the park to turn around. 

  Park Store- has fishing bait and supplies, too 

  Cabins are under re-construction There is a Places Munzee here

  Boat Ramp

  🐦 Wildlife: Birds: Cormorants(Water Turkeys), barn swallows, scissor-tail

  Cedar Breaks Park

  Beautiful big sites

  The sites are large which means you aren't right on top of your neighbors. Lots of shade. Each site has its own shelter with picnic table, grill and fire pit. Electric and water but no sewer. The sites along the outside of the loop have lake views and are level. The sites along the inside are scary unlevel! Some of the big rigs were backed in and jacked up 4 feet or so in front. Saw a lady break her ankle stepping out of her camper. Be prepared to level your camper! I suggest odd numbers 19-35 and even numbers 36-42 as the most level sites with the best lake views.

  The park has hiking trails, boating and swimming access, but none of these are accessed right at the camp area.

  Restrooms are very basic with no hot water. They were clean but a little creepy for showers. I used the toilets there during the day and my camper shower and toilet at night.

  Lake Somerville State Park Birch Creek Unit Campground

  Nice park with green space between sites

  • Water

  • 20/30 amp(had 50 amp outlet, but only 20& 30 breakers)

  • Grill

  • Fire Ring with adjustable height grate

  • Picnic Table

  • Site Pad: asphalt. Site was just long enough for my 24' camper and my truck and not much room between.

  👍🏻 Pros:

  • Near the water with a trail to get there

  • Green space between the site and neighbors

  • Good kayaking area

  👎🏻 Cons:

  • The spot is tight getting in. My 10' high camper had low hanging branches on it(but they were soft, not stiff). Lots of vines/shrubs across from the site, so no extra room there. 

  📝 Park Notes:

  • Park does not have a gate, so it doesn't close

  • Dump Station for each camping loop

  • Restrooms/ Bath House

  • Boat ramp

  • Fishing jetty (pier is closed)

  • This campground is better for winter camping. Great buffer from wind and neighbors. Only a handful of sites have direct access to the water.

  • Lots of trails

  • There are Munzees and Geocaches here

  • Group pavilion/kitchen available

  • 2 group shelters available

  🐦 Wildlife:• Birds: Shore birds, egrets, herons, cardinals, mockingbirds

  • Deer

  • Raccoons(I saw their tracks, but not the critters)

  More info an video at https://www.denisevajdak.com/2021/08/my-birthday-weekend-2021.html

  Site 23 was better (stayed in this one twice). Wider, nice view of lake. Not very long, but easier to get into.

  Live Oak Ridge

  Excellent Restful Campground

  Live Oak Ridge COE Campground is excellently maintain and is a very low-key, restful place to land.  Large sites with ample vehicle parking that offer substantial distance from the neighboring sites give room to bring multiple vehicles or a boat along with the RV.  The sites are well maintained by the hosts who are not obtrusive and just keep a low profile to ensure things are clean and go well. The restroom area is also clean and has showers and toilets. A better-than-typical playground is set in a great interior place for all to enjoy. Water access is through the boat ramp, so don't expect to launch from your RV site since they are elevated far above the water. We stayed in Site 7 (and later extended it to Site 6). Both were easy to back into and fairly level with nice concrete pads, grills, and wonderful covered picnic tables. Both had tree coverage on one side. There are nature trails across the main road and access to Belton and their small but awesome riverwalk area, historic Salado, Still Hollow Lake, the Belton dam (we could see the mural from both sites), Chalk Ridge Waterfalls and Temple, TX within a few minutes. This is a great landing spot for many nearby activities EXCELLENT National Park pricing for 50 amp and water hookups with dump site available.

  Oak Forest RV Park

  BEAUTIFUL and peaceful RV Park

  We’ve had such an amazing time here. There’s multiple dog parks, hammock areas, common areas with fire pits and grills, gardens for the community, and a incredible coffee truck over by the welcome office (closed on Tuesdays). Beautiful and loving community of temporary and long term RVers. 10/10 for Austin

  Cedar Breaks Park

  Had a great stay!

  I am new to the rv life and own a used Coleman Bayside pop up camper. I own a business in Austin and love escaping to the woods at the end of the day.

  Im wrapping up a 10 day stay at Cedar Breaks Park campground and will return for sure!

  Lake Georgetown is the main attraction and is beautiful, quiet & clean.

  The park & campground is easy to find and easy for larger or vehicles with travel trailers / campers in tow. Many grocery stores / restaurants / shopping / medical facilities are close by also (within 2-5 miles)

  Sites all have 30, 50a and water hookups (im not sure about sewer hookups at sites but they do have a sewer dump station at front of campground) more than adequate restroom & shower facilities located in the center of the campground.

  The staff is absolutely amazing, they are friendly, knowledgable and accommodating.

  ROOKIE MISTAKE #1 “GET THE AFTER HOURS GATE CODE” After setting up camp the first day, I realized I needed food for Grady (my silver lab) and drove to Walmart. WELL, I didnt pay attention and got locked out. I didnt have the after hours gate code & had to park out front and walk down to my site & wentback up in the morning to get my truck.Not a huge deal, but a lesson I learned lol
