Cranes Mill Park is located on a long peninsula on the southwestern shore of Canyon Lake in Texas Hill Country, halfway between Austin and San Antonio. Dramatic sunrises to the east of the park across Canyon Lake and sunsets on the western side of the park behind the Guadalupe River make this an unforgettable location.

Summary
AI generated
Cranes Mill Park is a well-maintained campground with spacious RV sites, clean restrooms, and a peaceful atmosphere, ideal for a quiet getaway. Campers appreciate the friendly staff and beautiful surroundings, including wildlife sightings. However, some visitors experienced challenges with finding the park, low lake levels, and noise from nearby campers, which slightly affected their overall experience.
The bathrooms were FILTHY!!! There was feces and vomit on the floor. There were a couple of weeks of bug accumulation on the floor, bugs in the sinks and all over the counter. There was toilet paper on the floor and counters. The showers had mud covering the floors. It looked like animals had invaded the spaces. I have never seen such disgusting bathrooms, especially at at Corps managed park. The first night we were there, we got no sleep - there were partiers everywhere, screaming all night - No quiet time. It was our first time at Cranes Mill, so we didn't know that this was a party park. We did speak with a gentleman the morning we were leaving who told us that the government was at fault and that the cleaning contract was up and the new cleaners had not started. My comment to that is, if there are people working at the park, then perhaps they should get off their butt and do a little cleaning themselves, at least sweep the floors! The people who are paying for the sites deserve clean bathrooms. We won't be back.
Nice campsite. We loved the table with the cover. Nice fire ring. We were very disappointed that the boat ramp was closed. The restrooms were functional but very dirty. No one was even sweeping it out daily. We liked that the sheriff drove through once or twice. Our site had a path down to the lake that we took advantage of but no swimming access.
Nice campsite on the lake. The site was super level and very clean. Bathrooms and showers were adequate. A lot of space between the sites, but no very private. We got there early & tried to get in touch with someone to see if it was ok for us to go to our site. We never did get in touch with anybody, so we went to the site early with no problem.
Since it was Easter weekend there were many large groups gathered at the campsites. They were very drunk and very loud. People were playing music all day and howling at 3 AM. The park host did nothing. We left a day early due to this.

From IH 35 take Exit 191 north of New Braunfels, Texas. FM 306 is exit 191. Drive west on FM 306 for about 14 mi. Turn left on FM 2673 at the red light just after the first Guadalupe River crossing. Cranes Mill Park is located at the westernmost end of FM 2673 and South Cranes Mill Road. Drive until FM 2673 goes down to a two lane road going through a neighborhood. Continue through the neighborhood. You will go down a steep incline and be at a Y in the road. Go left on at the Y and you have entered the park. The gate house is at the far end of the road past the marina.
Cranes Mill Park is accessible via IH 35 to FM 306, which is approximately 14 miles from the interstate. FM 306 connects to FM 2673, leading directly to the campground.
