Looking for good place in Canyon Lake Tx

My family and i are planning a weekend in the Canyon Lake/New BruNfels area. I was just looking for some advice/reviews of the best places to stay. Thanks and God Speed!

  • +1 For Jellystone. We bring the grandkids there. Very family freindy, have a great pool/splashpad and they do have one of the tubing companies that come in and transport you should you want to go tubing.
  • Inks Lake Park is a great place. But hard to get sites very busy campground.

    If you are not 'set' on Canyon Lake I would suggest Inks Lake State Park instead. The Rangers are on top of any 'boozing' getting out of hand. My son is 17 & this is his favorite park. Matter of fact, if you search my posts in this forum I just took him & 2 different sets of friends this summer for 3 days each.

    There is a big cliff to jump off of (Devils waterhole). Nighttime fishing off the piers. Kayak/canoe rentals. Hiking trails. Plenty of places to bike. They all loved it and the friends want to know when can they come again.
  • Check at the campgrounds some have tubing companies that will pick up and drop off at the campgrounds.

  • Potter's Creek on Canyon Lake. I have stayed at Rio Raft before but I tent camped. It was ok. Convenient because they have a store and river shuttle on site. However if I were to go again it would be Potter's Creek. Both are good choices.
