Austin, TX

Visiting Austin for first time. May 29-31. Looking for an RV campground. Also what to do or see while there? We are traveling with no children just a small dog. We will be coming from Corpus Christi.
  • We stayed at Austin Lone Star right off I35 exit 228 north bound or 227 south bound good location to all city locations. We were here for a graduation at St. Edwards which was held at U of Texas. They also had a nice dog run . Have fun

    that is the one that I stayed at, was passport america at the time. nice bath house/showers/etc.
    bumpy
  • We stayed at Austin Lone Star Resort. As other posted, it was a gated facility and close to downtown, 6th st.
    We found the Congress Avenue Bridge Bats breath taking. Go to Trip Advisor and read about them.
    6th. St is a college crowd, bar hop, type type place. Be careful where you park, they will ticket you.
    A lot of construction and the traffic can get crazy, so timing is a must when RVing through Austin.
  • Mckinney Falls SP is not very far from the Austin Lone Star RV resort and a much nicer setting. Of course, it's not on the freeway right behind an adult video megastore like the Lone Star RV park, either.:E
  • Sorry it took me so long to get back to my question. First thanks everyone for all the info on where to stay in Austin. Unfortunately we decided to pass on going. We were in Corpus Christi and they had a tornado, lots of rain and Austin and San Antonio had all the flooding. We decided to head back home early because of road closings etc. Next year we will go. Thanks again.
