Jellystone Park Austin North in Georgetown, Texas, offers 79 full-hookup RV sites and five cabin and tiny house units 30 miles north of Austin, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet.

Two categories stand out: the covered deluxe sites put shade over the pad, which matters through a Central Texas summer, and the preferred pool sites put you next to the water. Five cabins and tiny houses round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, RV storage, personal mailboxes, recycling, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. Check-in is 3pm for cabins and 1pm for campsites, with checkout at 11am. A lazy river and splash pad anchor the summer, with an outdoor pool alongside.

Ninety feet is exceptional for the Hill Country, where terrain usually limits length, and accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. Nine cottages round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, a business center, recycling, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. The property was formerly La Hacienda RV Resort. An outdoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and spa anchor the property, with a fitness center, clubhouse, game room, mini-golf, horseshoes, walking trails, a playground, community fire pit, and dog park filling the grounds.

Spicewood RV Resort

101 RV Sites

Spicewood RV Resort in Texas offers 101 full-hookup RV sites with 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 80 feet in the Hill Country between Austin and Marble Falls. Waterfront, premium, compact, and standard back-in categories join pull-through sites, with an outdoor pool, clubhouse, pickleball, and a pond. One hundred one sites span compact back-in, standard back-in, premium back-in, waterfront back-in, and pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 80 feet. Two things worth knowing: service is 50-amp throughout, so bring an adapter if your rig runs 30, and the 80-foot capacity handles the longest coaches. The compact category gives smaller rigs a right-sized option. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with a pond supporting fishing, and pickleball, volleyball, ping pong, gaga ball, sports courts, a clubhouse, pavilion, playground, dog park, and biking filling the grounds. A golf course is nearby. Pets are welcome. Spicewood sits in Burnet County's Lake Travis and Lake LBJ corridor, where the Highland Lakes chain on the Colorado River gives the Hill Country its water recreation and the surrounding country gives it the limestone-and-live-oak character people come for. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand from Austin, with spring wildflowers and fall bringing the most comfortable Hill Country conditions. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Oak Forest RV Resort

400 RV Sites

Ten minutes from downtown Austin and tucked into the wooded landscape of East Austin, Oak Forest RV Resort offers 458 full-hookup sites and resort-caliber amenities in a setting that blends Hill Country atmosphere with immediate access to one of America's most dynamic cities. Part of the Roberts Resorts portfolio, Oak Forest has invested in the kind of infrastructure that sets it apart from the typical urban RV park: a recently renovated resort-style pool and hot tub, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, a dog park with pet walking areas, and a clubhouse complete with a full kitchen and game room. For workers, long-term travelers, and visitors who want Austin within reach without paying downtown prices, it's a compelling choice. Each of the 458 sites measures 22 by 65 feet, with pull-through, back-in, and premium wooded and landscaped lot options. Full hookups include 50-amp power, water, and sewer, and the park's fiber infrastructure supports the remote work that has become standard for a significant share of the long-term RV community. On-site laundry, the pet park, and community spaces in the clubhouse create a genuine residential feel that accommodates both the overnight road tripper and the guest settling in for a month-long Austin assignment. A weekly organic farmers market on the grounds adds a local character rarely found at RV parks of any size. East Austin has evolved rapidly over the past decade into one of the city's most vibrant and diverse neighborhoods, concentrated along the East Sixth Street and East Cesar Chavez corridors with a density of independent restaurants, craft cocktail bars, coffee roasters, and music venues that has made it one of the most sought-after addresses in the city. The Travis County Exposition Center, just a mile up the road, hosts authentic Texas rodeos, horse shows, car shows, and bike rallies throughout the year—a genuine Texas cultural experience minutes from camp. Lady Bird Lake's hike-and-bike trail, accessible from downtown about 15 minutes away, circles the Colorado River impoundment with 10 miles of paved and natural surface path offering kayaking, paddleboarding, and one of the best urban running routes in the country. Barton Springs Pool—a natural, spring-fed swimming hole in Zilker Park maintained at a constant 68°F—is a quintessential Austin summer experience. The Domain and Domain NORTHSIDE shopping and entertainment districts are 20 minutes north. Lake Travis Zipline Adventures and the Fredericksburg Wine Road lie within an hour for day trips beyond the city. Austin's live music, food, and outdoor scenes operate year-round, though spring wildflower season and fall's comfortable temperatures are the most coveted periods for visitors not tied to specific events. The SXSW festival in March and Austin City Limits Music Festival in October drive the city's peak demand periods—book well ahead for those weeks. Summer heat is real and persistent, but the resort's pool and the natural spring-fed swimming holes within reach make it manageable. Reserve your site at Oak Forest RV Resort and plug into East Austin's extraordinary energy without sacrificing the space and hookups your rig requires.

Castle View RV Park

5 RV Sites

Castle View RV Park in Kempner, Texas, offers full-hookup RV sites and cabins on a big-rig-friendly property behind a gated entrance, with a lake and pond, general store, dog park, and personal mailboxes. The Hill Country setting between Briggs and Kempner suits both short stays and longer residencies. Full-hookup RV sites serve guests with rigs, with cabins for those without. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and personal mailboxes handle the practical side, and a gated entrance controls access — the combination of security and mailbox service points clearly at the extended-stay market the park serves alongside travelers. A lake and pond sit on the property with boating available, and a playground and dog park fill the grounds. The amenity set is comfortable rather than elaborate, and the security and quiet are what guests consistently cite. Kempner sits in Lampasas County on US-190 west of Killeen, in the transition zone between the Balcones Escarpment's eastern edge and the inner Hill Country's cedar and live oak savanna. The rolling limestone landscape here is the Lampasas Cut Plains — the geological region shaped by the Lampasas River and its tributaries. The position gives practical access to the Killeen-Temple military and civilian corridor and the I-35 routes beyond, which keeps a steady base of longer-term guests alongside Hill Country travelers. The park operates through the Central Texas season, with spring wildflowers and fall delivering the most comfortable conditions and the heaviest visitor demand. Fort Cavazos activity drives steady year-round occupancy — call ahead for extended stays.

Austin Lone Star

17 RV Sites, 3 Park Models

Five miles from the live music venues, taco trucks, and iconic energy of downtown Austin, Austin Lone Star puts you squarely in the center of one of America's most vibrant cities without sacrificing the space, hookups, and practicality that RV travel demands. Located at 7009 S I-35 Frontage Road, the community offers a full-service urban RV destination that serves long-term Austin workers and short-stay visitors in equal measure. In a city where hotel rooms run high and parking is perpetually scarce, having a full-hookup site just minutes from everything Austin offers is a genuine and underappreciated advantage. Austin Lone Star delivers on the essentials with a heated pool perfect for Austin's long, hot summers and a fitness room that keeps active guests on their routines. Twelve private bathrooms—including two ADA-compliant suites—keep wait times to a minimum, and the pet park with artificial turf sanitized twice monthly makes this one of the most dog-friendly urban parks in the state. A clubhouse with billiards and spacious picnic areas scattered throughout the property round out the communal spaces, while laundry facilities, propane, and a dump station cover the practical needs of self-sufficient travelers. Reliable WiFi throughout the park serves remote workers and families streaming their evening entertainment alike. Austin's South Side—where the park is located—captures the city's creative, unconventional energy at its most concentrated. South Congress Avenue runs north from the park toward downtown, lined with vintage boutiques, acclaimed restaurants, and the kind of only-in-Austin shops that make an afternoon of browsing genuinely memorable. The South Lamar corridor adds additional dining and nightlife options, while the proximity to I-35 gives quick freeway access in every direction—north to the Domain shopping district, west toward Barton Creek and the Hill Country, south toward San Marcos and New Braunfels. Barton Springs Pool—a natural, spring-fed swimming hole in Zilker Park maintained at a constant 68°F year-round—is one of Austin's great civic treasures and a short drive from camp. Lady Bird Lake's hike-and-bike trail encircles the Colorado River impoundment through the heart of downtown, offering kayaking, paddleboarding, and the city's best running route. The Congress Avenue Bridge hosts the world's largest urban bat colony—1.5 million Mexican free-tails that spiral into the evening sky in a nightly spectacle from March through October. Sixth Street and the Red River Cultural District offer live music virtually every night of the week, year-round. Austin's outdoor lifestyle is genuinely year-round, though spring wildflower season and fall's comfortable temperatures are the most coveted times to explore the city on foot and by bike. Summer heat is real but the social calendar never slows, and the park's heated pool becomes a daily necessity. The Austin City Limits Music Festival in October and SXSW in March draw massive crowds—book well ahead for those weeks. Reserve your site at Austin Lone Star and plug into the energy of one of the most dynamic and entertaining cities in the American South.

Harker Heights RV Park

124 RV Sites

Harker Heights RV Park in Texas offers 124 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet, in the heart of the Central Texas military corridor. Premium and standard back-in categories join pull-through sites, with an outdoor pool, playground, and dog park. One hundred twenty-four sites run in standard back-in, premium back-in, and pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a community fire pit, playground, and dog park filling the grounds. Hiking, biking, swimming, and fishing are all available locally. Pets are welcome. The position serves a specific and steady market. Harker Heights sits on US-190 in the Killeen-Temple-Fort Hood metropolitan region, immediately adjacent to Fort Cavazos — which means military families in transit, contractors on assignment, and visitors to the post make up a substantial share of guests alongside travelers moving through Central Texas. The commercial spine of Harker Heights is within walking or short driving distance, so groceries, dining, and services are close. Demand runs year-round rather than seasonally, tracking post activity, graduations, and change-of-station cycles more than tourism. Reserve ahead for graduation weekends and holiday periods, and call about extended-stay rates if you are here on assignment.

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.

Gather Campground Bell County

132 RV Sites

A splash pad and outdoor pool anchor the warm months, with a fitness center, recreation center, clubhouse, lounge, playground, community fire pit, and dog park filling the grounds. Pets are welcome.

Belton sits two and a half miles from downtown in the heart of Central Texas, between Lake Belton and Lake Stillhouse Hollow, with Temple, Killeen, and Fort Cavazos close and both Austin and Waco within an easy drive. Demand tracks interstate traffic and Central Texas events rather than a season. Spring and fall are most comfortable. Reserve ahead for holiday travel and event weekends.

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.

Horseshoe Ridge RV Resort

49 RV Sites

Built on a 31-acre former racehorse training ranch in the Texas Hill Country near Wimberley, Horseshoe Ridge RV Resort preserves the property's equestrian heritage in its name and shaded character—more than 350 mature oak trees deliver a canopy of natural shade across the resort grounds that provides meaningful temperature relief during the warm Hill Country months while framing the panoramic 15-mile views across the Blanco River valley and the distant limestone ridges of Hays County. The resort's combination of premium landscaped grounds, a comprehensive amenity package, and the natural beauty of the central Texas Hill Country landscape positions it among the more resort-caliber full-hookup RV destinations in the corridor between Austin and San Antonio. Full hookup sites with big-rig-friendly access accommodate large motorcoaches and fifth wheels, and the resort's amenity investment reflects a premium positioning in the Hill Country RV market. A swimming pool, hot tub, fishing pond, billiards room, game room, pickleball courts, horseshoe pits, corn hole, craft room, snack bar, general store, dog park, fitness center, business center, laundry facilities, and clean restrooms and showers collectively deliver a resort experience substantially more comprehensive than the typical RV park. Cabin rentals provide lodging for guests who want the resort setting without an RV, and golf cart rentals allow guests to navigate the property's 31 acres comfortably. Premium Wi-Fi infrastructure and professional-grade bathhouses complete the resort infrastructure. Wimberley, one of the Texas Hill Country's most charming small towns, is known for its artistic community, crystal-clear spring-fed swimming holes, and access to the Hill Country's iconic outdoor recreation. Blue Hole Regional Park, a beloved natural swimming area on Cypress Creek, is one of Wimberley's most visited summer destinations—a green-filtered swimming hole under massive cypress trees that embodies the spring-fed swimming culture of central Texas. Jacob's Well Natural Area, less than three miles from town, is a spring-fed limestone shaft that is one of the most photographed swimming destinations in Texas, with crystal-clear water flowing from an ancient cave system at a consistent temperature year-round. The San Marcos River, accessible from San Marcos 15 miles south of Wimberley, provides additional spring-fed tubing, kayaking, and natural swimming access in one of the clearest rivers in Texas, fed by Spring Lake at the headwaters. The Blanco River, running through the broader Wimberley valley, offers fishing and tubing in a more intimate Hill Country river setting. Austin, approximately 45 miles northeast of the resort via Ranch Road 12 and US 290, provides the full metropolitan cultural and entertainment infrastructure of Texas's capital city on a straightforward day trip, while the historic German settlements of Fredericksburg and New Braunfels extend the Hill Country cultural itinerary in the opposite direction. Horseshoe Ridge RV Resort is open year-round, with the Texas Hill Country's mild climate supporting outdoor recreation and resort-style camping across all seasons. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable temperatures for outdoor activity, and the Wimberley Market Days—held the first Saturday of each month at the Lions Field market—draws regional vendors and shoppers that give guests a recurring local event to plan around. Summer brings the peak Hill Country swimming season at Blue Hole and Jacob's Well, when reservations at both natural swimming destinations require advance planning. Resort sites should be reserved well in advance for Hill Country spring wildflower season and spring break periods.
