The quick take

Drawn from this listing's ratings, amenities, hours and how it stacks up against other campgrounds in Austin.

What works

  • Consistently well reviewed

    4.8 stars held across 250 reviews is not a fluke — people keep going back.

  • 2nd best-rated in Austin

    Measured against the 20 rated campgrounds we track in Austin.

  • Open every day

    The same hours all week (10:00 AM – 7:00 PM), so there is no schedule to memorise.

  • Dogs welcome

    Listed as dog-friendly — bring the leash and waste bags anyway.

  • Works with kids

    Flagged as family-friendly, which usually means room to run and somewhere for the adults to sit.

Worth knowing first

  • Parking is undocumented

    No lot or street parking is recorded against this listing. Assume you are hunting for a kerbside spot.

  • A narrow window to fit it in

    Open 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM and no longer — an early start is out.

  • Strongly seasonal

    Plenty of sites close or cut services outside the main season, and winter camping here is a different proposition entirely.

Planning a visit
