Not allowed to park here overnight. An officer came by and cited us. Please delete this option as an overnight camping area so others don't have the same issue.

Managed to stay here 3 nights. What an amazing location! Large open parking lot next to walking trail and river. But today the police did come thru and give citations.

Report Check-In

DON'T STAY HERE OVERNIGHT. We pulled in and there were maybe 4 or 5 other camper vans and rvs crashing here. The next morning a police officer knocked on our door and had cited all of us for staying overnight in the lot. Apparently there have been a lot of complaints so they are citing everyone who stays overnight. We did see 1 sign afterward that says the park closes at 10pm, but it's not super visible.

Report Check-In

We settled in the parking lot for the day but left it for the night because there is a sign that prohibits parking from 10 p.m. to 5 or 6 a.m. The car park is surrounded by barriers and gates which are probably closed at night

Report Check-In

Was informed that cops came in and cleared everyone out one night ago. Ended up moving closer to the nearby bridge parking, which has a dividing fence to the Zilker open parking lot. Was not bothered staying here.

Report Check-In

Update, some officials came by and handed us this paper. Told us APD was gonna enforce it

Report Check-In

A bunch of dirtbags in a huge parking lot. There are a lot of skoolies and campers here so definitely big rig friendly.
The lot is rough and gravel, not a paved road at all.
It can get pretty noisy due to there being a highway a few hundred feet away.

Report Check-In

Very big space, lots of dirtbags here. The parking lot is very rough, not a paved lot at all. It’s gets kind noisy due to the highway being very close. There’s a lot of skoolies and campers here so it’s big rig friendly.

Report Check-In

A bunch of boondockers off in the backside of the lot. Tons of space, if your neighbors are noisy, drive a few hundred feet away. Right along pedestrian/bike path. Porto’s for the park nearby (not pit toilets as indicated in this post)
