Cedar Breaks Park

I come here regularly just for the sunrises! The sun rises right over the hills on the other side of the lake and hits beautifully on the water, I have never been disappointed. Excited to check out the camping and hiking trails next.

My husband and pup went for a hike today and it was fantastic! It is a bit rocky, but our dog loved it. I would recommend hiking shoes because my husband and I were slipping and tripping on the rocky terrain with our sneakers.
Even though it was one of the hottest months of the year, you really didn’t feel it because most of the trail is shaded. We did go to the waterfall, which is closer to 3 miles from the hiking parking lot. We went out there around 9 and finished around 12 with some swimming time allowed for the pup. Overall, it was fantastic but the trail that connect to the waterfall is a bit rough and not well defined.

Trail is great for family. It can get pretty rocky in some areas so I’d recommend hiking shoes, but we made it a bit over a mile in with our five year old in just tennis shoes. There is a lot of shade which provides a noticable temperature drop when entering the trailhead so the heat more easily tolerated.

Our frst time here and we will definitely be back! It’s so close for a quick weekend camping trip! The park is beautiful, serene and very clean! Our campsite was perfect, overlooking the lake. The picnic table pavilions are a nice touch for shade protection and from rain. Each campsite is affordable for $ 26 a night! They are equipped with water and electric hookups as well as a charcoal grill and firepit. You can also bring your furry friends as long as you keep them on a leash.

This is a great park & perfect for a long weekend. The patio shelter (at each site) was awesome & totally necessary on the last day as we got DRENCHED! We tent camped & the space is ample!
You can drink openly & our well behaved dog was unleashed but next to us w/​o so much as a stare from the campsite host. (That doesn’t happen at a TX State Park.)
2 little beefs — which is why this park isn’t 5 stars — the bathrooms could’ve been cleaned throughout the weekend. That I can deal with, however the sinks are dinky. We’re talking RV– dinky which makes for a challenge when brushing teeth & washing face. Oh & no hooks anywhere around the sink for your towel or makeup bag (why am I wearing makeup whilst camping?!) For that reason, it seems this park caters to RV’ers who have their own facilities.
Lastly, I’d wished you could access the lake front a bit easier. It’s a pretty rocky cliff in most areas, though our dog did manage to get down there w/​o issues, leaving her old-​out of shape owner to scale the cliff to get her!
All in all, we loved it & would definitely revisit…

Cedar Breaks Park is a beautiful park on a bluff overlooking Lake Georgetown on the south shore. I have only visited this park for the hiking trails, cliff diving and swimming and it is a great place to do all those things. But, if camping is your thing I am sure it is a great place for that too as I’ve seen lots of RVs, there are showers a boat ramp and fishing docks. If you are only hiking or swimming tell them at the gate and they will not charge you the camping or boat ramp fee.
The last time I visited this park a friend lead us to a hidden spring fed waterfall that I did not know of — absolutely amazing and a cold relief in the July heat. From the parking area it is about a 1.5 mile hike to the cliffs for diving or jumping in.
FYI: the guy at the gate said to be sure and keep our dogs on a leash as a dog had recently been bitten by a rattle snake so keep an eye out for snakes.
If only I lived closer I would practically live here.

I just went here for a hike yesterday and it was great! I did read about it being rocky so the dogs staid home. Boy I’m glad they did. It really was a hike and not a walk and extremely rocky. It is about 2.5 miles to the waterfall which is totally worth it. It is something that my family will do again after we get some better hiking shoes.
