Emma Long / City Park
Austin, Texas
(at least four times a year)
We love this park! It's close to home and sits on Lake Austin. I grew up on this lake so I'm pretty partial to this space. Lake trees with lots of shade. Most of the sites are huge with level paved pads with lots of shade. However, there are two or three spots that don't have any shade at all. Fire rings,BBQ pits, and cement picnic tables are part of each site.
Cost $15 per night and per car fee of $8.
Pros
- Close to home and town (35 minute drive).
- Sits on Lake Austin (8 waterfront sites).
- Constant level lake with lots of swimming holes and restaurants.
- Sand Volleyball courts, baseball diamond, and swimming area.
- Cold refreshing water.
Cons
- First come first served. Not able to reserve any spots.
- Only 16 RV spots - two or three do not have any shade.
- Years past the duckweed / hydrilla has been a nuisance, but lately it's under control.
- Water can be cold. Comes off of the bottom on Lake Travis.
- The Pier closed and looks like it might reopen soon. Known for it's lake food and fantastic live music.
