Boaters and anglers will find direct water access at FM 521 River Park, a utility company-managed campground offering free overnight stays along the Colorado River. The facility provides basic amenities including portable toilets and accommodates both RVs and tent campers with drive-in and walk-in options. Highway noise from the nearby road creates a constant backdrop, though the boat launch makes this a practical base for water recreation.
Pets are welcome, and the site maintains ADA accessibility with reliable cell service throughout the grounds. For those wanting more amenities, Lighthouse RV Park provides full hookups just southeast of here.
