Quiet getaway close to Austin

If you're able camp here in the middle of the week for almost an interrupted solitude. Because there isn't much to do out there you may well be the only person. On the weekends when the weather is nice it will fill up for the most part. My favorite sites 27 for the privacy, followed by 24 because it's off the road and not close to other sites. The sites in the teens can be really close together, and some sites have better shade trees than others. In the month of April the bluebonnets are incredible and every time I've been there there have been tons of deer, probably the name sake of this place. Take a kayak with you for a nice calm paddle. There are a couple of pit toilets scattered throughout the campground but no showers. Most sites come with a fire pit but you'll need to bring your own firewood.
