Berry Springs RV Park

The Great Outdoors

One of the many benefits of RV camping near Georgetown is the easy access to nearby Lake Georgetown. The large man-made lake has a surface area of nearly 2,000 acres, which is more than enough room to spread out. There are a handful of public ramps that allow for recreational boating. Spend the day jetting up and down the length of the lake, racing invisible opponents toward an imaginary finish line. Retreat into one of the nooks and coves for an idle afternoon of fishing. The lake is stocked with several species of fish to supplement the existing population, and anglers can expect to catch white, largemouth and smallmouth bass, flathead catfish, and white crappie.Nearby Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge is a protected habitat of two endangered songbirds, black-capped vireo, and golden-cheeked warbler, and a few threatened animals. Hikers and photographers can make use of the trails to try to observe these rare creatures in their natural habitats, provided that they do not disturb them. There are several other animals that make their home in the Balcones Canyonlands Wildlife Refuge, such as gray foxes, coyotes, white-tailed deer, armadillos, and several species of bats.Virtually untouched for 100 million years, Inner Space Cavern is one of the most unique geological features in Texas. About 10,000 years ago, a portion of the cave collapsed, and a few now-extinct animals made their way into the cave. Explorers have found remains of a baby mammoth, a giant sloth, and a saber-toothed tiger, and there may well be more in the unexplored areas. Spelunking on your own is prohibited; however, there are three or four different tours that are suitable for people of different fitness levels.

Exploring the Area

Rent a motorhome and easily explore the neighboring towns’ attractions, shops, and restaurants. Many towns operate small museums that spotlight the area’s heritage and culture. The Williamson Museum in Round Rock, TX, focuses on the Chisholm Trail, which played a significant role in America’s Wild West era. The exhibits display various artworks, artifacts, and other memorabilia from that time. In Taylor, TX is the Moody House, which spotlights one of the most prominent - and youngest - governor in Texas’ history, Dan Moody.The art and science of winemaking are alive and well in rural Texas. As it turns out, grapes thrive quite well in spite of the harsh Texas heat. Hop into an Airstream rental and embark on a wine tour of the countryside. The Vineyard at Florence, TX, is an award-winning wine producer. Sample the wines in the rustic cafe or enjoy the views of the hills covered by grapevines in the tasting room.At the end of a long day of fishing, swimming, and exploring the wide-open Texas countryside, kick up your heels outside an RV rental and listen to the soft crackle of a campfire as you enjoy your time at Berry Springs RV Park.
