Within the Georgetown Recreation Area, Cedar Breaks Park sits on Lake Georgetown's shoreline where the San Gabriel River forms this Army Corps of Engineers reservoir. The campground operates with 30-amp, 50-amp, and water hookups at each site, though no sewer connections are available—campers use the dump station near the entrance.
Sites circle a single loop road, with the outer ring providing direct lake views and the inner sites tucked among cedar trees. Each campsite includes a wooden pavilion sheltering the picnic table, plus both a fire ring and charcoal grill. Karen H. notes that "sites along the outside of the loop have lake views and are level," while warning that inner sites can require significant leveling—some RVs need to jack up their front end several feet.
The 26-mile San Gabriel River Trail connects to the park for hikers, while anglers fish from the rocky shoreline or launch boats at the nearby ramp. Swimming access requires walking to designated areas rather than stepping directly from campsites. Weekend day-use crowds fill the most accessible swimming spots, but weekday visits often mean having the park largely to yourself. Campers should watch for rattlesnakes, which multiple visitors have spotted.
Wayne F. describes the facility as having "LOTS of cedar trees and very nice staff," with sites numbered 19-35 and 36-42 receiving particular praise for their combination of lake views and level parking. The basic restroom building provides cold water only for showers. Georgetown's town square sits less than two miles away, with Austin accessible within 25 miles for day trips. Reservations help secure the preferred lakefront spots during busy periods.

Natural Features
Lake Georgetown is a reservoir on the north fork of the San Gabriel River in central Texas. The dam was completed in 1979 to provide flood control and water supply for the nearby community of Georgetown, and now provides countless recreation opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts. The park is aptly named for the abundance of cedar in the surrounding forest.
