A great fishing spot right off the Colorado River. There are some porta potties here. It's a nice park.

I used to like to go there, but they are charging $31, not $25 to stay overnight. Filthy bathrooms, no electric or water. LCRA does not maintain the area like they say they are. There is tons of garbage down by the boat ramp and along the riversedge.

This will no longer be free camping. They are setting it up as a $25 dollar a night by reservations. No veteran discounts on that (no surprise). Not worth the price and the locals seem to think so too. Especially since a lot have been fishing here for years. There are no envelopes to put your money and I notice no one stopping to put any $ in for any day use either. I love this park I camped here, primitive camping. Clean Porta potties. The best part of the park is that I got to meet really nice people here.
