Nice place to walk and see nature
We visited here while driving through TX. There wasn’t a lot of water flowing over the falls in November 2022. However we enjoyed our time here make sure you see the upper and lower falls. There is a trail that goes from the upper falls to the lower falls through the woods. The trail starts in back of the visitor center. You can also see the rock shelter along this trail.

Spectacular State Park
Located 10 miles (23 mins) from downtown Austin this SP was by far our cheapest park during our stay in Austin at $20 day for W/E You do have to pay a daily state park fee if you do not have a state park pass ($3 a day pp) They have miles of trails and stock the pond in the winter for people who like to fish. Biggest cons: limited amenities, only one dump station, added cost of getting into downtown ($20 Lyft.) Biggest perk: the park is full of beautiful trees, sites are enormous and at $20 the price is unbeatable. If when you try to book there are no sites you may want to check again once your dates approach, this park is full year round. Good to know: Ice/firewood available There are only 12 sites with 50 amp service The front gate locks at 10pm - gate access code given at check in Updated review after second stay (Feb 2021): We still think it’s the best place to RV camp in the Austin area. It’s affordable, close enough to town to use rideshares and has all the perks of a state park. Trails are easy to explore and well marked and sites give ample room and privacy between sites.
