Best Cabin Camping near Somerville, TX

Cabins near Lake Somerville offer rustic accommodations with basic amenities at several campgrounds including Lake Somerville State Park Nails Creek Unit and Lake Somerville Marina and Campground. Most provide electricity with 30/50-amp hookups, water access, and simple furnishings. The cabins at Lake Somerville State Park feature air conditioning, picnic tables, and fire rings with cooking grates. "We stayed in one of the cabins and it was super cozy and convenient," noted one visitor about their Jellystone Park experience. Stephen F. Austin State Park also offers cabin rentals with powered sites and lighting, situated close to shower facilities.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Lake Bryan Campground and Hidden Creek RV Resort feature cabin options ranging from basic one-room structures to multi-room units that accommodate families. Reservations are essential, particularly during summer months when Lake Somerville attracts visitors for water recreation. Holiday RV Park and Hardy's Resort RV Park allow pets in their cabin accommodations with some restrictions. A camper remarked that "The rustic cabin with amenities" at Stephen F. Austin State Park provided comfortable shelter while allowing them to enjoy the natural surroundings.

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Cooking facilities vary widely - some units offer only outdoor fire pits with grates, while others provide indoor kitchenettes with refrigerators and microwaves. The Hill Top at Brenham Luxury RV Resort cabins include more upscale amenities than standard campground cabins. Karstens RV Resort offers market facilities within walking distance of their cabin accommodations. Firewood is available for purchase at several locations including Overlook campground and Buescher State Park, though availability may be seasonal.

    Lake Somerville State Park Nails Creek Unit Campground

    Great Fall Camping, Equestrian Area

    A nice, quiet fall camping weekend on Lake Somerville. It was a solo trip and since the weather was warm, I brought my kayak on this trip.

    Check In: 2p Check Out: 12p

    ⛺ Site#26- Back-In

    💲20 per night+$4/person/day Parks Pass Discount saved$18.00

    • Water

    • Fire Ring with grate
    • Picnic Table: wood with metal legs, concrete base

    • Corrals for horses

    👍🏻 Pros:

    • Extra parking places across the street
    • Can see the lake from this spot

    👎🏻 Cons:

    • There's not a direct trail to the lake shore other than animal trails through some of the tall grass
    • The table and fire ring are on the non-camping side so it was a little strange. Very dark at night on that side.

    📝 Park Notes:

    • Dump Station
    • Restrooms/ Showers- clean. The Bent Tree area has a portable trailer for the restrooms and showers. The main building is closed.
    • There are Munzees and Geocaches here
    • Lots of trails in the park and between this and the Birch Creek Unit
    • Great trails for equestrians
    • Enclosed Group shelter for events (no kitchen)
    • Family Fishing Pond (small)

    🐦 Wildlife:

    • Birds: Great Blue Heron, Cardinals, Chickadees
    • Deer
    • Squirrels

    💜 Highlights of this trip:

    •🔥 Campfires and breakfast over the fire

    •🐕 My brother came for a short visit to walk the dog

    •🛶 Kayaking and there was only ONE other boat on the lake

    •🍂 Nice fall colors

    •🚫 Some of the trails and areas of the park were closed this weekend due to public hunts

    •🌟 Warm temperatures and clear nights. Lots of stars.

    •💚 Found a couple geocaches and put out a few Munzees

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park

    Lake Bastrop + Amenities + Peace

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park Park is managed by the Lower Colorado River Authority. There’s a office at the entrance were one can pay your admission fee. Or if you arrive late, there is a self paying station that’s available 24 hours 7 days a week. At the small office one may buy ice, drinks and souveniers.

    This campground has a number of sites for RVs with full hook ups. There is a sewage dump station in the center of the park. Also, there are traditional car camping spots with drive up parking spaces, picnic tables, fire rings, grills and water and electrical hook-ups. There are restroom facilities are scattered throughout the park. At the far end of the park there are campgrounds for primitive camping. These have more basic amenities - there is an open space, community fire pit, community grill and some picnic tables.

    Not too far from the primitive campground there is a trail that leads to a nice view of Lake Bastrop. There’s also a community space in the center of the park which has, picnic tables, a fishing pier, open water access and an area that is roped off for swimming.

    This park is distinguished from the Lake Bastrop South Shore Park because it tends to attract campers with more basic needs. I would say that there are fewer families, less crowds and more peace and quiet.

    I found the staff to be nice and friendly.

    South Shore Park

    Quiet & Private

    Pros:

    • Quick check-in

    • 176-acre park with 40 campsites on the south shore of Lake Bastrop.

    • Level site concrete pad surrounded by crushed granite.

    • Aluminum picnic table, lantern pole, BBQ grill and fire pit with cooking grill.

    • Cleaned BBQ grill and fire pit upon arrival.

    • Very private as the site was surrounded by heavy brush.

    • Even though Spring Break and the campground was packed, it was quiet.

    • Firewood is available for purchase from Park.

    Cons:

    • LCRA $6 on-line reservation fee.

    • Long waits for toilet/shower. All are family type facilities with the toilet, sink and shower as one unit behind a lock door, so one showering person ties up a toilet. There are 8“units” for 40 campsites PLUS cabins.

    • Toilets/showers could of used more frequent cleaning as they are heavily used.

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park

    Lake Bastrop + Family Activities + Lake Life

    This campground is located a short distance away from the city of Austin, Texas. The park is managed by the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA). At the entrance there is an office where you can pay your admission fee and it has a small store where you can pick up supplies. If you arrive late, there is an after hour station to pay your fee which accepts cash or a credit card.

    This park has car and RV campsites. There are no primitive sites. There is a campground called the Lake Bastrop North Shore Park located 15 minutes away with primitive sites.

    The campsites are all very similar. There is an area to park your car and it will fit a small or midsize RV. There are water and electrical hook-ups which make it very convenient. There are typically plenty of trees for shade. Each site has a picnic table for dining, a grill for outdoor cooking, a pole to hang food or trash and there is a fire ring for a campfire. Of course they also have pad sites where you can place a tent. The pad sites will fit anywhere from a two man tent up to an eight man tent. In addition to the campsites there are a number of small cabins which can hold up to four people. The cabins have some basic amenities and the restrooms are nearby. Most of the campsites and cabins are only a short walk to the lake shore where you can catch a sweet view of Lake Bastrop.

    There is limited hiking with one trail that runs along the lakeshore for about 6 miles. The main attraction of this park is living the lake life. Near the campsites one can launch a canoe or kayak. But there is also a boat ramp and boat dock where you can launch larger sized watercraft. If you don’t have your own watercraft you can rent a canoe or kayak from the office and pick it up near the boat dock. It is possible to fish from a boat or the shore. There are a number of community spaces which are great for picnicking. There is a sand volleyball court. And there’s a special area of the lake that has been roped-off and is designated for swimming.

    I think that the only possible downside about this park might be that there are always lots of families and energetic kids running around. If you’re seeking peace and quiet this might not be your place. If you are seeking some fun activities, this place is great.

    I think that the Lake Bastrop South Shore Park is a 5 star campground for all of the facilities, amenities and considering that the staff are friendly.

    Stephen F. Austin State Park Campground

    Pleasant Texas State Park

    We had a really nice relaxing stay at Stephen F Austin State Park near San Filepe, Texas. Great little state park easily accessed from I-10. The 38 RV sites are all asphalt pad pull throughs with 30/15 amp electric, water and sewer complete with concrete pad for table, fire pit, lantern and all well spaced for plenty of privacy...big rig friendly. They have an additional 39 tent only sites with water and 25 primitive. Screened shelters are reservable for tent camping with 20 amp electric and water plus one rustic cabin with amenities. There is a$5 daily entrance fee in addition to camping fees. The bathhouse facilities are brand new. It's a small park but they do have five miles of trails for hiking/biking with views of the Brazos River. We enjoyed the wildlife; deer strolling in the campground every morning and evening, birds, rabbits, frogs, turtles, a bobcat and numerous owls. They have a Nature Center; however it was not open during our visit. The park office has a small store with sundries and park souvenirs. The nearby San Felipe de Austin State His­toric Site tells the story of early settlers to Texas and is worth a visit. We made a run to the nearby town of Sealy to do a much needed laundry stop...small community with grocery, dining and fuel to meet most needs.

    Fires and floods

    It's sad what happened here to the trees in the fire and the lake when the dam burst, but this park is resilient. Please support it by visiting. You can now also walk the old closed golf course. There are little log cabins for rent. I used to live nearby.

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park

    Great little spot - Clean and tucked away!

    We spent 2 nights here in the tent sites a couple weeks ago. We loved it.

    There are 8 tent-only sites at the north end of the park - there is a short trail by the restrooms that lead to them. Upsides are that they are removed from most of the park's bustle, so it's easier to relax and enjoy your time "in the woods". The restrooms and shower facility are a ~200-300 ft walk, depending on which site you choose. Each site has a grill, picnic table and fire ring. The sites are not particularly level, but we were able to get two tents on the site with minimal issues. The tent area also has a community grill and fire pit that would make it a great candidate for a group camping event.

    There is a small floating dock where you can fish or launch a kayak (remember, you can't park close so you'll have to carry the boat in...good for kayaks, bad for canoes). There is ample room at the park's main launch to put in larger canoes or kayaks without carrying them as far.

    The park amenities are fine - swimming area, fishing pier, and fairly clean showers/restrooms. Also, there is a Bucee's 5-10 minutes away for those last-minute needs/forgotten supplies!

    All in all, a good weekend, and a good spot to camp!
