Week in Georgetown
Spent a week in Georgetown ,tx ACOE park . Big park 148 sites , we are in spot 148 , next to the entrance . Park is an hour outside of Austin if that . Not bad but the sites are on top of each other pretty much , one after another not much real estate between sites . Lots of Deer , and some good trails . We came for the Longhorn game and stayed a week . I will stay again
Beautiful campsite on the lake
Close to Austin, Lake Georgetown will never disappoint. The campsites are clean, ours was next to the lake. The day/night we stayed the wind never dropped below 18 mph, so we didn’t do much outside. The dump station was very easy to access from both directions. A definite go to again place.
