Potters Creek Campground

We arrived here in Canyon Lake, Texas


on June 22 for five nights.  This is a COE park and we enjoyed our waterfront site.  All sites come with water and electric.  We had 50 amp and needed it as it was hot and muggy.  We were able to open the windows after 11:00 PM as the temps dropped into the 70's.  A dump station is accessible on the way in or out.  Well spaced sites and long enough for any rig.  This is a boaters paradise and most campers are locals from Texas.  All sites are clean and have a fire pit and separate bbq grill.  They also have aluminum covered patio's with heavy duty metal picnic table.  We paid $15 per night with our senior pass.  I rate this park F*****.

We had a thunder storm come through one day.  Buddy was so upset, he would not eat his food for a couple of hours.  That is a rare occurrence!  I took the kayak out one day and Aggie and I popped in for a swim.  I was finally able to get my first professional hair cut and beard trim in 4 months.  Because of COVID19, barbers and hair salons were not open and when they finally did open, they would not trim beards.  We were going to visit the River Walk and The Alamo while here, but the Alamo was closed due to COVID19 and we decided not to go to the River Walk and chance catching the virus there as this is a big hot spot for the virus.  Instead, we visited a Japanese Tea Garden in San Antonio, a separate post. We took a separate road trip to Gruene, Texas, an historic 19th century community.  They have several beer gardens here on the river and a winery tasting establishment.  We poked into several antique and art shops till my feet gave out.  Afterwards we visited a large city, New Braunfels, Texas; to pick up some supplies and food.

I took out the kayak out one calm day.  Went across the lake to check out waterfront homes on other side of lake.  Almost got lost, but finally found my way back as this is a BIG lake.  Aggie paddled the kayak close to shore for a little while and we took a dip in the warm lake.
