STATE CAMPGROUNDSTexas state parks offer a range of amenities, from full hookups to wilderness camping. The improved camping areas have restrooms with flush toilets and hot showers. Some primitive camping areas have self-composting toilets but no showers. Wilderness areas offer trails and maps but no utilities—those operate on the “pack-it-in, pack-it-out” principle. Improved camp-sites have utilities, a tent pad or trailer parking pad, a picnic table and fire ring. Many also include a grill standing waist-high as well as a pole with a lantern hook.

For camping reservations or cancellations, call 512/389-8900 9 a.m.–6 p.m. Monday through Friday or leave a voice mail for cancellations 24 hours a day.
