Lake Fun Properties

28 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 1 House

Lake Fun Properties in Kingsland, Texas, delivers a lakefront resort camping experience on Lake Lyndon B. Johnson in Llano County's Hill Country corridor, where the Highland Lakes chain's deepest reservoir provides year-round boating, fishing, and water skiing on the clear, warm waters of the Colorado River impoundment that the Lower Colorado River Authority created in 1951. Positioned in the Colorado River's Highland Lakes chain between Lake Marble Falls to the east and Lake Buchanan to the west, the resort serves the lake-lifestyle visitors and Hill Country tourism travelers whose Kingsland itinerary centers on LBJ Lake's consistent recreational productivity and the nearby wine country and natural scenery of central Texas's most popular vacation region. The resort's waterfront amenity package delivers direct lake engagement: boat docks for guests who bring their own watercraft, canoeing and kayaking access, swimming in the Highland Lakes' clear warm water, and the walking trails and pavilion that extend the outdoor experience beyond the waterfront. Full hookup big-rig-friendly sites, cabin rentals, a clubhouse, dining, laundry, dump station, and Wi-Fi provide the complete infrastructure for multi-day lake stays, and the golf course access nearby serves guests who integrate fairway recreation into their lake-centered itinerary. Stargazing under the Hill Country's dark skies adds a celestial dimension to evening hours on the lake that the region's low light pollution makes genuinely rewarding. Lake LBJ is the deepest lake in the Highland Lakes chain and the most constant in level, receiving its water from the Highland Lakes impoundments above and maintaining consistent boating conditions that make it particularly popular for water skiing, wake boarding, and the pontoon boating culture that has defined the Kingsland and Horseshoe Bay residential lake community since the 1960s. The lake's 6,000 acres of clear Colorado River water enclosed by the Hill Country's granite-and-limestone terrain create the visual character of the central Texas lake experience at its most appealing—glassy morning water reflecting the live oak and juniper hillsides on both shores before the afternoon breeze arrives. Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, approximately 30 miles northwest via RM-152 and RM-965, provides the Hill Country's most celebrated geological attraction in the massive exfoliated granite dome that rises 425 feet above the Llano Uplift and is considered sacred by the Tonkawa people who inhabited this territory before European settlement. The Fredericksburg wine tasting corridor and the LBJ Ranch's birthplace and burial site are accessible in under an hour, and the Llano River—a dedicated Geological State Landmark for its exposure of some of the oldest rocks in Texas—flows through nearby Mason County in one of the Hill Country's clearest and most beautiful river corridors. Lake Fun Properties operates year-round in the Highland Lakes' semi-arid Hill Country climate, with the Lake LBJ boating and water sports season running at full capacity from late April through September when the warm water, consistent sunshine, and school-vacation calendar drive maximum lake recreation demand. Fall's cooler temperatures extend the boating and kayaking season into November with dramatically reduced boat traffic, and the wine harvest season at the surrounding Hill Country wineries creates an additional September-October visitation draw for guests combining lake recreation with the corridor's wine tourism. Winter's mild conditions sustain year-round lake fishing for the bass and crappie populations that LBJ's clear, deep water sustains.

Freedom Lives Ranch RV Resort

33 RV Sites

Situated near Buchanan Dam in the Texas Hill Country along the Highland Lakes chain, Freedom Lives Ranch RV Resort delivers a premium Texas lakeland camping experience in a setting defined by the natural beauty of Lake Buchanan—the largest and northernmost of the six Highland Lakes formed by the Lower Colorado River Authority's dams along the Colorado River in Burnet and Llano Counties. The resort's combination of well-equipped RV sites, a distinctive log home clubhouse, and access to Lake Buchanan's exceptional boating and fishing waters gives it a well-rounded appeal for guests drawn to the Texas Hill Country's combination of scenic lakeside terrain and resort-quality campground infrastructure. Pull-through sites with 30/50-amp electrical hookups, water, and sewer connections accommodate large Class A motorcoaches and fifth wheels without maneuvering difficulty, and the full-service hookup configuration gives guests the complete utility infrastructure expected at a premium Texas RV resort. The log home clubhouse—equipped with a full kitchen—provides an enclosed gathering and meal-preparation space for groups and larger families, complemented by an outdoor kitchen and hot tub on the property grounds. A swimming pool, dog park, and fishing pier round out the amenity package with recreational features that function independently of lake conditions or weather on any given day. Lake Buchanan, covering approximately 23,000 acres and stretching over 30 miles in length, is the largest of the Highland Lakes and supports a productive freshwater fishery for largemouth bass, white bass, catfish, striped bass, and crappie. The lake's significant size creates open-water boating conditions more characteristic of reservoir lakes in the upper Texas Hill Country than the smaller, more sheltered lakes closer to Austin, and both power boating and sailing are common on its broad surface during the warm months. Sandy Creek Park and other public access points on Lake Buchanan provide boat ramp infrastructure for guests arriving with their own watercraft. Inks Lake State Park, approximately 15 miles from the resort on the next Highland Lake downstream, is one of the most popular state parks in Texas—a 1,200-acre park centered on a spring-fed lake with consistent water level, excellent swimming, fishing, paddling, and hiking in a Hill Country terrain of ancient granite outcrops and juniper-cedar-live oak vegetation. Longhorn Cavern State Park near Burnet provides cave tour access to an interesting geological system with Spanish colonial-era history, and the Vanishing Texas River Cruise on Lake Buchanan offers guided wildlife observation tours for bald eagles, white-tailed deer, and waterbirds during the winter raptor season. Freedom Lives Ranch RV Resort is open year-round, with the Texas Hill Country's mild climate supporting outdoor recreation across all seasons. Lake Buchanan's fishing season is productive from spring through fall, with spring bass and white bass runs attracting regional anglers. Winter brings the Highland Lakes area's celebrated bald eagle season, when dozens of eagles winter on the lake and are viewable from the River Cruise and shoreline access points. The resort's proximity to the Highland Lakes tourism corridor and Austin-area visitors makes it a competitive reservation destination for spring and summer weekends, and advance booking is recommended for those periods.

SKYE Texas Hill Country Resort

57 RV Sites, 35 Cabins, 6 Nature Pods

SKYE Texas Hill Country Resort in Fredericksburg offers 57 full-hookup RV sites, 35 cabins, and six nature pods, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, EV charging, and rigs accepted to 45 feet behind a gated entrance.

Fifty-seven sites span deluxe back-in, premium back-in, pull-thru, waterfront back-in, and waterfront pull-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. EV charging on site is still uncommon at RV resorts and worth knowing about if you tow with an electric vehicle. Thirty-five cabins and six nature pods round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, a snack bar, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with a clubhouse, sports courts, pickleball, bocce ball, walking trails, a lake, pond, pavilion, and on-site dining filling the grounds. Live music runs through the season, hiking and biking are close, and the dark Hill Country sky makes for excellent stargazing. Birding across the property is productive. Fredericksburg is the most visited town in the Texas Hill Country — German heritage, Main Street's shops and beer halls, more than 50 wineries within a short drive, and Enchanted Rock just north. Spring wildflowers and fall harvest drive the sharpest demand in Fredericksburg. Reserve well ahead for March through May and September through November.

Lake Buchanan RV and Cabin Resort

69 RV Sites, 12 Cabins

Lake Buchanan RV and Cabin Resort in Burnet, Texas, offers 69 full-hookup RV sites and 12 cabins on the Texas Highland Lakes, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet, open year-round. Waterview, premium, and deluxe categories join a boat ramp, boat docks, beach, outdoor pool, hot tub, and fitness center. Sixty-nine sites run in deluxe, premium, and waterview categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet, with picnic tables. Three tiers keep booking simple, and the waterview category is the one to request. Sixty feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Twelve cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A boat ramp, boat docks, and beach open the lake for boating, fishing, and swimming, with an outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna, fitness center, clubhouse, disc golf course, volleyball, horseshoes, walking trails, a pavilion, and playground filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Lake Buchanan is the largest and most western of the six Colorado River Highland Lakes that stretch from Austin northwest through the Hill Country — a 22,000-acre reservoir with genuinely open water, dramatic bluffs on the western shore, and a winter bald eagle population that draws birders. Burnet is the county seat, with Longhorn Cavern, Inks Lake State Park, and Marble Falls all close and Austin about an hour southeast. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand, with spring wildflowers and mild winters drawing steady shoulder traffic. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Oasis Lake Buchanan

7 RV Sites, 7 Cabins

Oasis Lake Buchanan in Bluffton, Texas, offers an intimate lakeside retreat on the shores of Lake Buchanan—the largest and westernmost of the Highland Lakes chain on the Colorado River in the Texas Hill Country—providing a quiet and relaxed escape for campers seeking the serene shoreline and recreational opportunities of one of Central Texas's most beautiful and least-crowded major reservoirs. Positioned on Lake Buchanan's tranquil waters in Llano County where the Hill Country's granite and limestone terrain meets the impoundment's clear water, the small park delivers a genuine lake-life experience without the commercial development pressure that characterizes more heavily visited Highland Lakes communities. The park's amenity focus is water recreation—a sandy beach, boat ramp, boat rentals, and kayak rentals give guests the tools to access Lake Buchanan's 23,060 acres of clear water without bringing their own equipment, and the lake's protected coves and open water fishing areas are accessible from the park's dock infrastructure. A dump station serves self-contained RV travelers, and the property's pet-friendly character welcomes the canine companions that make extended lake camping trips more enjoyable. The intimate scale of the park itself reflects the low-key, neighbor-to-neighbor character of the Bluffton community along the lake's western shore. Lake Buchanan's geology is among the most dramatically scenic of any Texas reservoir, formed where the Colorado River was impounded behind Buchanan Dam in 1937 and immediately surrounded by the pink granite and reddish-brown sandstone of the Llano Uplift's basement rocks—ancient Precambrian formations that give the lake's shoreline and the islands within it a raw geological character quite different from the limestone-rimmed lakes downstream in the Highland Lakes chain. The lake's size, depth, and infrequent motorboat crowding compared to Lake Travis and Lake LBJ make it a preferred destination for anglers targeting striped bass, largemouth bass, and catfish in productive open water. The Fall Creek Falls, accessible via a short hike near Bluffton, provide one of the Hill Country's most rewarding waterfall experiences in wet seasons, and the Colorado Bend State Park approximately 20 miles northeast protects a spectacular river canyon with Gorman Falls—a travertine cascade considered one of the most beautiful waterfall formations in Texas. Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, accessible via FM-2341 approximately 25 miles southeast, is the Hill Country's most iconic granite dome destination and a premier hiking and rock climbing location. Llano, the granite capital of Texas and gateway to deer hunting country, provides the nearest commercial services for Lake Buchanan visitors. Oasis Lake Buchanan operates year-round in the Hill Country's moderate climate, with spring's wildflower displays—bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush blanket the roadsides from March through April—and fall's comfortable temperatures representing the most popular booking windows. Summer brings fishing enthusiasts targeting the lake's striped bass in the cooler, deeper waters, and the lake's size buffers against the worst summer heat with reliable afternoon breezes across the open water. The park's quiet, unhurried character makes it particularly appealing for guests who have experienced the more crowded downstream Highland Lakes and want the Highland Lakes experience without the crowds.

Texas Hills RV Haven

8 RV Sites

At 111 Willow Shores Drive in Tow, Texas—on the shore of Lake Buchanan in Llano County where the uppermost of the Highland Lakes chain fills the Colorado River Valley's widest basin in the Hill Country, producing the 23,000-acre reservoir that supports the largest wintering bald eagle concentration in Texas, the hybrid striped bass fishery that draws anglers from across central Texas, and the pink granite shoreline that exposes the Precambrian bedrock underlying the Hill Country's limestone veneer—Texas Hills RV Haven provides full hookup RV sites with three-way connections, three cabins, a lake house, a private boat ramp, complimentary kayak use, and a seasonal beachfront swimming area in the family-operated lakefront campground that has served the Buchanan Lake recreation community since 2008. The private boat ramp, the complimentary kayaks, and the beachfront swimming area together constitute the water access infrastructure that makes Texas Hills a functional water-recreation base rather than simply a lakeside parking spot. Full hookup RV sites with three-way connections—power, water, and sewer—provide the complete hookup infrastructure at each site, eliminating the black-water tank management that partial hookup sites require. Fire rings at individual sites provide the evening campfire setup. Three cabin rentals and a fully appointed lake house serve the guests without RV equipment and provide the family reunion and group accommodation format that a single RV site doesn't support. A private boat ramp—the campground's own concrete launch rather than a shared public facility—provides the immediate lake access for trailered watercraft without the Highland Lakes public ramp congestion that summer weekends at Lake Buchanan generate. Complimentary kayak use available to all registered guests gives the paddling option without requiring guests to own, transport, or rent equipment. A seasonal beachfront swimming area provides the supervised freshwater beach experience directly on Buchanan's shore. A pavilion, playground, horseshoes, washers, and a common area with board games and movies provide the social gathering and rainy-day entertainment infrastructure. Lake Buchanan's fishing calendar features the largemouth and smallmouth bass, catfish, white bass, and the hybrid striped bass that Texas Parks and Wildlife has stocked and managed in the reservoir since the 1970s. The Highland Lakes' uppermost impoundment provides the most rural and least-developed of the chain's six reservoirs, with the sparse development along Buchanan's shoreline preserving the natural character that lower Highland Lakes reservoirs—particularly Lake Travis—have largely lost to residential development. Bald eagle viewing tours, operated by local tour operators on Lake Buchanan during the winter months from November through March, provide the most accessible concentration of bald eagles in Texas at a viewing density that surprises first-time participants. Inks Lake State Park—adjacent to Inks Lake immediately downstream from Buchanan on the Highland Lakes chain—provides the state park infrastructure, hiking trails, and Inks Lake's clear, granite-bottomed freshwater swimming and paddling access that complements the Buchanan camping base with managed park facilities. The Vanishing Texas River Cruise, headquartered in Burnet and operating on Buchanan Lake, runs the eagle tours and scenic lake excursions that the Buchanan environment makes distinctive for the Texas nature travel itinerary. Texas Hills RV Haven is open year-round, welcoming anglers, families, couples, and snowbirds across all seasons in the Highland Lakes' temperate climate. Summer brings the lake recreation and swimming season peak; winter attracts the bald eagle viewing guests and the snowbird population seeking the Hill Country's mild December-through-February temperatures. Reserve the waterfront site or lake house well in advance for summer weekends, plan the eagle tour for the January morning, and let Lake Buchanan's pink granite shore earn the Highland Lakes experience that the chain's uppermost reservoir preserves in its most natural form.

Jellystone Park™ Texas Wine Country

106 RV Sites, 13 Tent Sites, 9 Cottages, 1 Wagon, 6 Park Models

Jellystone Park Texas Wine Country in Fredericksburg offers 106 full-hookup RV sites, 15 cottage and park model units, 13 tent sites, and a wagon, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted up to 90 feet. Wine Row, Creek Side, Garden Side, and Meadow categories join pull-in and pull-through tiers, alongside a water park, splash pad, spa, and mini-golf. One hundred six sites span Creek Side back-in, Creekside pull-in, Garden Side back-in, Meadow back-in, pull-thru, and Wine Row back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 90 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Naming every category for its setting rather than a tier number is unusually helpful, and 90 feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. Fifteen cottages and park models, 13 tent sites, and a wagon round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a snack bar handle the practical side. A water park and splash pad anchor the summer, with an outdoor pool and spa alongside. Mini-golf, a jumping pillow, arcade, game room, craft room, fitness center, recreation center, gaga ball, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, a creek, pond, playground, pavilion, community fire pit, and dog park fill the rest. Ten miles east of Fredericksburg on US-290, the property sits on the most productive wine tourism route in the American South, in Gillespie County's oak-covered hills. Spring wildflowers and fall harvest drive the sharpest demand. Reserve well ahead.

Roadrunner RV Park

27 RV Sites, 9 Tent Sites

Roadrunner RV Park in Johnson City, Texas, offers 27 full-hookup pull-through RV sites and nine tent sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Every site is pull-through, next to the town's commercial district in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Twenty-seven pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp and 50-amp service, sized to 60 feet, with site WiFi. Nine tent sites cover simpler camping. A general store, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Every site pulling through is genuinely useful here, where many guests stop for a night on a Hill Country loop. Pets are welcome. On-site amenities stay practical, with horseshoes on the grounds. The park's real advantage is walkability — it sits next to Johnson City's commercial district, which puts shops, restaurants, and the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park visitor center within walking distance rather than a drive. Johnson City is the birthplace and ranch country of President Lyndon Baines Johnson, in the Pedernales River valley where working ranches, spring-fed rivers, and low juniper and live-oak hills form the landscape that shaped him. The LBJ Ranch and the national historical park are the anchor attractions, with the wider Hill Country wine and dining scene spreading out from there. Spring wildflower season and fall draw the heaviest Hill Country traffic. Reserve ahead for wildflower weekends in March and April, when the region fills.

Firefly Resort

In the Texas Hill Country at Fredericksburg—in Gillespie County where the German immigrant community's 1846 settlement created the wine country, peach orchard, and historic Main Street character that has made Fredericksburg the most visited small city in Texas—Firefly Resort, voted #2 Resort in the United States by USA Today, provides luxury full hookup RV sites alongside fully furnished move-in-ready tiny homes, a multi-level swimming pool with an adults-only section, pickleball, a dog park, a clubhouse with laundry, and fast WiFi throughout, with select premium sites featuring outdoor kitchens, pergolas, and covered seating, in a resort whose Fredericksburg address puts the Texas Wine Trail's 60-plus wineries and tasting rooms at the doorstep and the Hill Country's complete outdoor and cultural landscape within comfortable day-trip range of what USA Today has ranked among the very best resorts in the country. USA Today says #2. The Texas Wine Trail confirms it. Luxury full hookup RV sites—clean, level, and serviced to the resort standard that the Firefly's USA Today ranking reflects—and fully furnished tiny homes that guests arrive at without needing to provision or stage provide the accommodation range for every Fredericksburg visitor whose itinerary prioritizes the Hill Country wine trail and the city's historic Main Street over the campground's own amenity set. The multi-level pool's design—with dedicated zones for active swimming and the adults-only section for the evening glass of Tempranillo without the cannonball competition—creates the pool experience that a luxury Hill Country resort delivers beyond the standard rectangular concrete rectangle. Pickleball, a dog park, a clubhouse with round-the-clock laundry, and the fast WiFi that the remote-worker extended-stay community requires complete the resort infrastructure. Premium site upgrades—outdoor kitchens, pergolas, and covered seating—create the elevated outdoor living spaces that the Fredericksburg Hill Country evenings, reliably cool and star-filled, reward. Fredericksburg sits in Gillespie County at 1,700 feet on the Pedernales River's headwater plateau, in the community that Adelsverein colonization society German immigrants established in 1846 under John O. Meusebach's treaty with the Comanche—a genuine peace treaty whose terms both sides honored, making it one of the few Indian treaties in Texas history that actually held. The German heritage that Fredericksburg's Vereins Kirche museum, the Sunday Houses, and the Wurstfest sausage-and-beer tradition celebrate has coexisted productively with the Texas Wine Trail's 60-plus winery and tasting room corridor that US-290 east and west of Fredericksburg now sustains in the recognized Texas Hill Country AVA. The National Museum of the Pacific War on the courthouse square provides the most comprehensive Pacific Theater World War II museum in the United States—the Admiral Nimitz Museum, the George H.W. Bush Gallery, and the Pacific Combat Zone outdoor exhibit draw visitors specifically for the museum alongside the wine. Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, 18 miles north on RR-965, protects the 1,825-foot pink granite dome that the Llano Uplift's exposure has created in one of the most recognizable geological landmarks in Texas—the summit hike's panoramic Hill Country views and the night sky observation from the dome's bare rock surface create the outdoor experience that the Hill Country's stargazing culture organizes around. Firefly Resort operates year-round in Gillespie County's temperate Hill Country climate, with the spring wildflower season from March through May (bluebonnets along US-290, Indian paintbrush in the cedar draws), the summer wine harvest from August through October, and the Fredericksburg Peach season from late May through July providing the three most distinctive seasonal activities in the annual calendar. Reserve your luxury site or tiny home at Firefly Resort and let the #2 USA Today ranking, the Texas Wine Trail's 60-plus wineries, and the Fredericksburg Hill Country character prove that the resort lived up to the recognition.

Dos Rios RV Park

14 RV Sites, 10 Cabins, 5 Tent Sites, 6 Glamping Sites, 3 Airstreams

Where the James River meets the Llano River in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, Dos Rios RV Park occupies one of the most distinctive natural settings of any campground in the state. The name says it all — two rivers, one property, and a twenty-acre island accessible from the grounds that guests can explore on foot or wade across when water levels allow. Mason County sits in an uncommonly beautiful part of the Hill Country where granite outcrops, juniper mesas, and spring-fed rivers define the landscape, and the campground puts all of it within reach. The accommodation options at Dos Rios cover the full spectrum from tent sites and full-hookup RV pads to rental cabins, tiny homes, a vintage Airstream trailer, and glamping setups for those who prefer their wilderness experience with better bedding. The property's spread along both river banks and onto the island gives different sites genuinely different characters — some face the James River, others overlook the Llano, and the island itself offers a feeling of total seclusion that traditional campgrounds simply cannot replicate. Picnic tables, fire rings, and river access are standard throughout, and the overall setup encourages multi-day stays. Both rivers run clear over limestone and granite bedrock through most of the year, creating exceptional conditions for kayaking, tubing, and stand-up paddleboarding from the campground's own put-ins. The area around Mason County is one of the few places in the United States where blue topaz — the Texas state gemstone — can be found by amateur collectors, and the campground can direct guests to rock-hunting locations where the gemstones turn up in river gravel and hillside outcrops. OHV terrain and stargazing on the island round out the activity offerings; Mason County lies within the Hill Country's certified dark sky corridor, and the absence of light pollution on clear nights is genuinely striking. Mason itself, a small German-settlement town three miles from camp, preserves one of the better collections of nineteenth-century limestone architecture in central Texas. Fort Mason, established in 1851, served as the post where Robert E. Lee spent several periods of his pre-Civil War military career, and the site remains a quiet but historically resonant piece of Texas frontier history. Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, the great pink granite dome that anchors the southwestern Hill Country, rises 42 miles south of Mason — a full day of hiking, bouldering, and panoramic views. The Old Tunnel Wildlife Management Area, roughly 30 miles east, harbors a bat colony of approximately four million Mexican free-tailed bats that emerge at dusk in a sustained column visible for miles. The Hill Country enjoys a long spring season from March through May, when wildflowers — particularly bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush — carpet the roadsides and river banks and the rivers run at their most reliable levels. Summer brings tubing season in earnest, with river levels dependent on rainfall but typically adequate through July. Fall is the second peak, when cooler temperatures and changing sumac and cypress color make the river setting especially scenic. The stargazing is excellent year-round in Mason County; winter nights are long and cold, with the Milky Way visible in full glory from the island.

Miller Creek RV Park

16 RV Sites

Miller Creek RV Resort in Johnson City, Texas, offers cabin and RV site accommodations with a gift shop and recreational programming in the heart of the Texas Hill Country's most historically rich corridor — Blanco County's Johnson City, the boyhood home of Lyndon B. Johnson, whose presence as the 36th President of the United States gives this stretch of the Hill Country between Fredericksburg and Austin the presidential history density, the wildflower-seasonal beauty, and the wine country viticulture that make the Blanco County Hill Country one of the most layered day-trip environments in south-central Texas. The resort's Johnson City position gives guests immediate access to the LBJ National Historical Park units and the Fredericksburg Hill Country wine corridor. Cabin accommodations and RV sites with a gift shop give guests the complete lodging range for Hill Country stays in Blanco County, where the spring wildflower season from March through April — when LBJ country's roadsides erupt in Texas bluebonnets, Indian paintbrush, and the regional wildflower mix that Lady Bird Johnson's national beautification program specifically celebrated — and the summer and fall wine touring seasons sustain the visitor economy that the Fredericksburg corridor's viticulture has built into one of the most visited wine regions in the southern United States. Pets are welcome. Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park's Johnson City District preserves the original Johnson family home and the boyhood home where Lyndon Johnson grew up on the edge of the Hill Country — a simple Victorian frame house that the National Park Service interprets in the context of the Hill Country's Great Depression-era hardship and the specific experiences that shaped Johnson's lifelong commitment to rural electrification, education, and the social legislation of the Great Society. The LBJ Ranch Unit, 14 miles west of Johnson City near Stonewall, preserves the Texas White House — the Pedernales River ranch where Johnson worked, entertained heads of state, and was ultimately buried in 1973 in the family cemetery under the live oaks that his grandfather planted. Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, 18 miles northwest of Johnson City in Llano County, preserves one of the most extraordinary geological features in Texas — a 425-foot-tall pink granite dome of Precambrian stone, 1.5 billion years old, rising from the Hill Country floor in a batholith exposure that the summit loop trail climbs in a moderate hike rewarded with panoramic views across the Hill Country's cedar and live oak savanna. The dome's geologically ancient granite, its documented 11,000-year history of human use from prehistoric camps to Republic of Texas-era treaty agreements, and the specific sunset and moonrise viewing character that the summit's isolation provides give Enchanted Rock the natural and historical significance that earned it a National Natural Landmark designation. Miller Creek RV Resort serves guests year-round in Blanco County's temperate Hill Country climate, where the spring bluebonnet season from late March through April represents the single most visited window in the Johnson City corridor and the fall wine harvest season from September through November sustains the second peak from the Austin and San Antonio regional markets. Pedernales Falls State Park, 9 miles east of Johnson City in Blanco County, provides the Hill Country's signature limestone waterfall experience and the Pedernales River's swimming holes that give the immediate resort day-trip range the outdoor water recreation complement to the presidential and wine tourism. Reserve sites and cabins months ahead for the spring wildflower peak, when Blanco County bluebonnet demand fills Hill Country accommodation well in advance.

Cedar Bend RV Park

30 RV Sites

On 10 acres in Bertram, Texas—the Burnet County Hill Country community where the historic 1912 Bertram Depot once served as a stop on the Austin and Northwestern Railroad and still serves as the turnaround point for the Hill Country Flyer steam train excursion that departs Cedar Park and carries passengers through the live oak and cedar landscape of Burnet County's Hill Country—Cedar Bend RV Park offers 30 full hookup sites with WiFi, laundry, walking trails, a community fire pit, and dog park in a peaceful, cedar-and-oak setting that positions guests in the convergence of the Hill Country, wine country, and Highland Lakes country that the Burnet County landscape uniquely provides. For Austin-area escapes and Texas road-trippers threading the Highland Lakes chain, Cedar Bend puts it all within reach. Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer service on private 10 acres provide the comfortable RV infrastructure alongside WiFi connectivity, coin laundry, clean bathrooms, a community fire pit and picnic tables, and walking trails through the cedar and live oak terrain. The dog park accommodates traveling pets in a Hill Country environment where the surrounding landscape—with its rocky terrain, cedar thorns, and the rattlesnake awareness that serious Texas outdoors travel requires—makes a fenced space genuinely preferable to off-leash roaming. A library and personal mailbox service extend the amenity set for extended-stay guests who use Cedar Bend as a longer-term Hill Country base. Bertram sits in Burnet County approximately 45 miles northwest of Austin and 15 miles east of Burnet in the Highland Lakes corridor where the Colorado River's impoundment chain creates Lake Buchanan, Inks Lake, Lake LBJ, Lake Marble Falls, and Lake Travis in the sequence of Hill Country reservoirs that provide the most concentrated water recreation inventory in Central Texas. The Highland Lakes' bass fishing, boating, swimming, and the limestone-canyon scenery that the Hill Country's geology creates around every reservoir provides the day-trip recreation infrastructure for Cedar Bend guests who want the lake experience alongside the Hill Country character. The Hill Country Flyer steam excursion train, departing from the Cedar Park station and stopping at the historic Bertram Depot, provides one of the most authentically nostalgic Hill Country experiences—a round trip through the oak and cedar landscape aboard vintage 1950s coaches behind a heritage steam locomotive, with the Burnet terminus offering the option to explore the historic Burnet square and the Globe Theatre, the 1935 Art Deco movie palace that hosts live music and film screenings in a restored venue that exemplifies small-town Texas's commitment to its cultural infrastructure. The Texas Wine Trail's Hill Country wineries—concentrated between Fredericksburg, Llano, and Marble Falls—are accessible within an hour from Bertram. Cedar Bend operates year-round in Burnet County's Hill Country climate, where the spring wildflower season from late February through April produces the bluebonnet and Indian paintbrush displays that draw photographers and weekend travelers from across Texas to the Hill Country roadsides. Summer brings the Highland Lakes' water recreation to peak activity, and fall offers the Hill Country's golden light and the comfortable temperatures that make October the most pleasant camping month in the region. Reserve your site at Cedar Bend and let Bertram's Hill Country, the Flyer train, the Highland Lakes, and the Texas wine country deliver the complete Central Texas experience from a ten-acre cedar grove.
