LCRA says Lake Travis park will reopen in summer 2026 with day‑use and reservation rules
Summary
LCRA announced plans to reopen a Lake Travis park in summer 2026 as day‑use only with weekend and holiday reservations required, and described expanded park amenities across its system including new trails, watercraft rentals and event facilities.
At a board meeting, a senior LCRA presenter outlined planned changes and upcoming openings across the agency’s parks system and said the park on Lake Travis that closed in 2023 will reopen in summer 2026.
"When we reopen that park, it will continue to be day use only, but reservations will be required on weekends and holidays," the presenter said, adding that boat‑ramp access would remain open and that the agency will offer non‑motorized watercraft rentals and picnic‑table rentals at the site. The presenter said a volunteer park host will live on‑site to assist visitors and promote safe use and help maintain the property.
The presenter described broader system amenities: traditional tent sites, cabins, Airstream trailer options, safari tents and a new “luxury mirror houses” offering; watercraft rentals at Lake Travis (Muleshoe Bend Recreation Area); about 15 miles of new multi‑use trails at Turkey Bend Recreation Area; and zip‑lining available toward Lost Pines. North Ray’s park rental facilities were noted as options for holiday gatherings, wedding events and bundled facility rentals.
No formal vote or board action related to the parks items appears in the transcript; the remarks were presented as operational updates and recognitions rather than items requiring board approval.
