Our reservation started on a Tuesday. The first 2 days we had the park to ourselves, was very quiet. Things were quiet all throughout the week. Check in was easy as the host had posted our entrance ticket for us to place on the window, then drove by later to check on us. The park was mowed and clean. The restrooms were very clean and fairly well kept the whole week. We enjoyed the wildlife (deer, geese, squirrels), but were disappointed that part of the park was closed off. We understood as the lake is still very low, but would have liked to be able to drive over to other sections to see if we have easier access for bank fishing. All in all, we had a very enjoyable week.

The park is spacious, clean, and easily accessible. The lake views are beautiful even though the lake level is low. Deer roam freely and the birds are prolific! Warm, clean restrooms. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely return.

Stayed at site 4 loop 1. Site had slight slope - easy to level with blocks if you back all the way up. Good view of lake. No sewer hook-ups so we used shower house which was heated, clean and plenty of hot water. Weather was rainy the entire time we were there so didn't do much sight seeing.

As our first trip to Canyon Lake & not knowing what to expect cranes Mill park was a wonderful surprise with its great location, easy access in & out of park, wonderful views of the lake, & very clean sites as well as facilities, making our trip very enjoyable. Definitely will return!

This was our first trip in our new RV. We arrived late and the person at the gate was very helpful. Finding our spot was easy and getting set up was quick. The evening was quiet, neighbors were mindful of quiet hours, and the space between neighbors was fine. The next day, there was plenty of activity. All dogs were on leashes and over all our experience was great! We cant wait to go back!

The facility itself is very nice, but many of the sites are not level. A must-see in the park is Poohenge. You'll find it right next to the bathroom/ shower house

Great park WITH NEW FRIENDLY HOST

The gate is locked at 9pm. We found it difficult to do the things we wanted to (dinner, entertainment and still make it back in time from San Antonio and Austin.
@ThomasW1659833 · Camped on Feb 21, 2022 at Campsite #4
This is a great park situated right in between Austin and San Antonio, giving easy access to both urban areas. But the "must see's" are New Braunfels and Gruene historic districts, with beautiful old buildings, restaurants, and stores - and these two towns are only 15-20 minutes away. The campground is beautifully maintained and the bathrooms are heated - which was a real plus for us, since we arrived during a winter storm! Situated right next to Canyon Lake, it's an ideal setting.

We had site#4 right next to the bathhouse. Restroom are clean and large stalls for toilets and showers. We didn't get to walk the trails as it was hunting season so the trails were closed. Staff was very nice and helpful. Covered shelters over table, And and area to park another vehicle for visitors.

Beautiful park. Nice spots with plenty of room. My only request would be that the state and federal parks also include sewer hookups.

Great little quiet RV park (31 sites) on the lake.
@JamesB972 · Camped on Mar 17, 2021 at Campsite #4
Older white couple at front gate very rude .people leave the city to get away from people like that.
@EveS417 · Camped on Mar 3, 2021 at Campsite #4
We spent 2 nights at this park in March, 2021. The RV section was nearly full, but sites are spaced well apart and most have some view of the lake. We especially enjoyed riding our tandem bicycle on the paved park roads, including the tents section which was not open for camping in the colder season. Surprisingly, the tents area also provides 20/30 amp electricity, and would work well for class B (campervans) with a long electric cord, in summer, when the RV sites are all taken.
