Learn more about this land:Hipcampers can expect to see one of the darkest skies in Central Texas, located far enough away from Austin and Dallas light pollution to clearly see the Milky Way on a cloudless night. Drive carefully on the dirt roads leading to the ranch; as deer are plentiful all around the property. Wildlife viewing is exceptional, with a wide range of animals typical of the rolling hills of Central Texas Hillcountry. The property has patches of open meadows speckled with hundreds of large, beautiful heritage trees including Live Oaks, Red Oaks, Cedar Elms, and Pecans. There are two small ponds on the property, with plenty of frogs and typical aquatic species providing a natural soundscape at night. Feel free to explore the site on foot or vehicles, but please keep vehicles only on existing dirt roads (no off-roading allowed). Feel free to use the RV hookup at the green metal building, and enjoy the stunning sunset views of the Texas Hillcountry from the elevated wooden deck connected to the building. The large propane grill (propane provided) on the wooden deck is also available for camper use. Campers can make a campfire in the designated fire pit only, and you must bring your own firewood. Campers may use the outdoor shower station, but you must bring your own water and mobile shower bag to hang from the hook at the top of the shower station.

My wife and I, along with a friend and two dogs stayed here for 4 nights and absolutely loved it! We stayed in a class b camper at the site closest to one of the cabins. Full electric hookups, fresh water, and black/gray water dump area. Johnnie was very pleasant to communicate with and he was also quick to respond to messages. If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway with beautiful views and lots of exploring I would definitely recommend this place!

Weekend Trip to Lake Cisco Campground

I enjoyed this campsite! Directly on top of a ridge where if you walk down the ridge and a few steps to the right you are on the old zoo trail. Some things I learned: No service for me (Verizon user) unless I was on the dam (which I enjoyed being away from) The guy who watches the camp is very helpful and kind and his dogs a gentle giant. Loved Thor and so did my small dog. The site is more rock than dirt so I couldn’t stake my tent in the ground and it did get pretty windy on the ridge one night for us (be strategic with car parking + trees around you and put rocks in my tent to help. There are toilets at the zoo trailhead so if you don’t mind walking a little you can use a toilet while tent camping. 1-2 nights max is what I’d recommend! The zoo trail is smaller so that + some paddle boarding on the lake maxed my time out. Any more nights and I’d be spending time outside the site/trail.

Weekend Trip to Inez Spring Riverfront RV Park

This place was the perfect camping spot for our family. We got very lucky and had the entire campsite area to ourselves which was amazing. The property itself was beautiful. Tons of shade from all the trees, lots to do like volleyball, hiking trails etc. we didn’t kayak the river like we planned to do but we enjoyed Cisco lake only 20 minutes away. The only downside is it is right by ther highway and so it’s pretty loud especially at night but that won’t detour us from staying here again. We will definitely be back especially if nobody else is camping in that area during the time. It was a great experience for sure.

Weekend Trip to Inez Spring Riverfront RV Park

It's a nice place, some areas are still being built up, so when I went was the 4th of July, so it was very warm, thankfully they have a pool! It was a very nice way to cool off from the summer sun, and the shaved ice was there that day which was also very nice, everyone there was very nice and helpful, it's a shame I was affected by the heat and couldn't stay overnight, would definitely recommend for families who like to swim and fish, if there was a hiking trail I didn't go down it since things were very muddy from the summer rain, all in all, it's all about when you go and what you want to do.

This was such a peaceful spot to just relax and unwind. I got to dive into a good book, take a stroll with my dog, go watch the sunset and sunrise on the suspension bridge, and do a little grilling and marshmallow roasting. Gorgeous spot. Dogs aren’t allowed into the camper, so that was the only downfall- as I wasn’t aware of that until I got to the location and it was on a sign inside the camper. I have a Saint Bernard- so thankfully I put her in my jeep and kept the AC going- definitely advertise that for sure! Everything else was breathtaking, and it was so quiet. Bathrooms are directly beside the camper and close to all the other campsites- full shower with hot water, towels, soap, even a baby changing station if you need! I’ll let the pics do it justice!

The best camping in Lake Brownwood State Park, TX guide

Overview

About

Cast your line in the water to catch dinner. Bass, crappie, and channel cats rule this lake. With hundreds of inlets and a 95-foot depth, there are plenty of big ones for everyone. The park loans out fishing poles in case you forget yours.

Lake Brownwood has 6 miles of trails, most notably the bicycle-friendly Nopales Ridge Trail. There are plenty of benches and picnic spots along the route. Those come in handy during scorching summer months.

Pick a water-only tent site if you prefer rustic camping. The park as 20 sites with full hookups and 10 screened shelters. Rent one of 16 cabins for a glamping getaway.

Notable campgrounds

Willow Point Campground

If you enjoy camping 20ft away from other people than this is the place for you. I didn't enjoy the campsite at all. The lake is really nice but though.

Willow Point Campground

Lovely little camping loop on the lake. Snag a site between 38 and 45 to be closest to the water. Not a lot of privacy, but a good bit of space to spread out. Make friends with your neighbors (they might just work for REI and have awesome gear advice).
