About Dana Peak

Dana Peak Campground is located on a peninsula on the shoreline of Stillhouse Hollow Lake in central Texas. The lake offers a wide variety of recreation opportunities, including water sports, hiking, biking, horseback riding, picnicking, large group pavilions, hunting, fishing and more. The facility is one of only two reservable campgrounds on the lake and often fills up on weekends during summer. Stillhouse Hollow Lake was created by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers with the construction of Stillhouse Hollow Dam in 1968. The 6,430-acre lake is located 16 miles upstream of the confluence of the Lampasas and Leon Rivers, which flow into the Little River.

We were in the area to visit family and did not get to enjoy kayaking on the lake like we would have liked to. The location was beautiful, our spot was fair level, and we enjoyed being right on the lake. The only downside was the number of bugs.

Park is beautiful! There is no one checking that rules are being followed. People next to me had between 20-30 people mini bike running through my site and spraying gravel. They partied until 2 am with loud music and arguing. Loose dogs that people were not even aware they were gone.

Camping sites are very close to the water which we loved for fishing. To he picnic tables are covered by a small shelter but it does not have any lights on it so must use lanterns at night if you will be eating late. The park itself is very beautiful and clean. The camping area was quiet mostly even though there were lots of RV spots filled. The restrooms were kept clean and stocked though they don't provide hand soap so I would advise to carry some with you or hand sanitizer. There is only 1 shower stall but it is very big and the water gets hot if needed. Overall only complaining on my part was we camped out when a storm blew in so we had crappy weather but we would for sure give it another try when it's dry and sunny.
