During the warmer months, a pool to spend time on this hot Texas days with kiddos. It's also a fabulous PET FRIENDLY PARK! Basketball area, huge pond with ducks, a pavilion and a plethora of seating areas! Trees to cool you down. Along the walking path are little workout areas with equipment. Ultimately, our favorite go-to location!! I'll definitely grab pics next visit!!

The "beach" is made up of large white limestone rocks which can make it tricky to set up for the day, but this is what keeps most other people out. :) Bring your own shade as there are NO large trees or shaded picnic areas. A beach umbrella can be set up near the water and a pop-up shade tent can be set up-at a level picnic table. There is a small, brick-sided restroom house on the premises. The best part about this park? IT'S FREE! There is no fee for using the lake area or the boat ramp. But, shhhhh! Don't tell everyone. :)

It is also dog friendly. Pretty much dirt trails, so after rains, it can get muddy, but we are in Texas, so that only happens occasionally. You can get several miles in on the various trails.

You never know when you might come across a snake, so be safe!

This road extends for a number of miles. They even have signs advertising an AM radio station that plays Christmas music that you can tune into. The quantity and quality of the lights completely astounded me, and the atmosphere they created was incredible. The price of admission, which is only twelve dollars per vehicle and not per person, is actually quite affordable. They did in fact have a "Santa's Village," but it was closed when we went there, so we couldn't eat there or take our children on the ride.

There was a place where you can get your boat down to the water and many people were on the boat doing finishing and all kind of water activities!

Parking was $5. There was a playground for kids, the lake had a large swimming area, and the grass was well maintained. There were bathrooms, but they aren't air conditioned so it was like a sauna and there was no toilet paper as it got later in the night. Luckily I had baby wipes in my bags with me. There were ants that would bite every once in a while and that was probably the worst part. It would be nice to have power outlets for our speakers, a concessions stand for snacks so we don't have to leave the park if we ran out, and I wish we could have rented some boats or something. But besides that my friends and I had an awesome time. I definitely recommend this park for good times at the lake

Launching the boat by 7:00 am and returning late in the evening, skimming across the water as the moon light bounced off the water, as smooth as black glass. The smell of the night air, the cool breeze on your sun kissed skin, and the sound of the engine purring as we cruised back to the dock, was the perfect ending to a perfect day. The Army Corps of Engineers designed these boat ramps with everyone's safety in mind. The boat ramps are well lighted and maintained; most have floating docks, where your family can easily board the craft. http://brigittethompson.hubpages.com/hub/Things-to-do-on-Lake-Belton-Texas-Marinas-Fishing-Camping-Boating-Hiking-Trails We would ski across the lake to our favorite spot, beach or anchor the boat, grab the cooler, set up the BBQ pit and lawn chairs. My brother and his friends would fish from dawn to dusk, and I would hang out in the water soaking up the sun with my girl friends. I still remember the smell of the hamburgers and hotdogs, cooking on the grill, and the sound of my parent's laughter echoing off the canyon walls as they sat around the fire with their friends and told stories about life and the crazy things that went on in their jobs. As an adult, I knew this was something I wanted to share with my children and so a family tradition began. We have, water-skied, tubed, fished, picnicked and camped at several of the wonderful locations on Lake Belton. Together we made great memories, our children have since grown up, and have moved away to start careers and families of their own. When my son was 15, he gave us the greatest compliment any parent could ever receive. He said, "Thanks for teaching me how to fish, to water ski, drive and pull a boat and park a camper. Because of you, I will be able to do all these things with my family one day." And so the family tradition of a day at the lake will continue for generations to come. I believe spending time together as a family needs to be a part of everyone's life, all to often we are caught up in the drama of our careers, and the exhaustion of trying to keep it together, we often forget the simpler things in life. Belton Lake has many things to offer from fishing docs, campgrounds for tents and campers/RV's. There are fantastic parks, with picnic tables, shade trees, pavilions, playscapes, public beaches located in BLORA and Temple Lake Park, nature trails and more. In this article, I hope you will find great information on things to do and see on Lake Belton, Texas.
