Birdie arrived at Inks Lake State Park near Burnett about 15 minutes after I did. The doxies had a joyous reunion with her as I did. It has been 5 months since we saw each other as she was off on her Alaskan journey.
Can't get much closer to the lake than this.
Birdie was just above me with a great site as well. It sure is nice to come during the week as it is very quiet and peaceful here.
Inks Lake is not low like a lot of the Texas lakes because it sits between two dams on the Colorado River and the LCRA keeps the water level within 6 inches of the same all the time.
You might be interested in renting a cabin. They have two sets of twins bunks as well as a table and chairs. They are also air conditioned.
There are quite a few loops for camping but the number of campsites on each loop is small which is nice. We had a young couple with 1 and 4 year old boys in a tent just up the hill from us. It was their first time camping and they were having a ball.
There were some fisher people across the way.
We are sitting about twenty feet from the restroom to get an Internet signal. It's sunny and a bit hard to see the screen so you may not get another post until I get home. Having a great time....wish you were here.
Wish I was there, also. Looks like a nice park. Really enjoyed following Birdie on her Alaskan tour.
ReplyDeleteIt is a nice park especially without the crowds. Birdie has a few final weeks to catch up on from her trip so look for a few more posts in the near future.
DeleteLove your site by the lake. The skies have been leaking here for the past two days in Indiana too. I love your dachshunds. I wanted to invite you to my blog and see our longdogs. It is thefletcherstravels@blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteWe have 2 a black one and a wire hair.
Thanks for joining me on my blog. I looked for pictures of Effie and Cooper on yours but I think I will have to go back and dig deeper as soon as I get caught up here.
DeleteThose are the kinds of lakeside sites to get. So nice when summer is over (at least on the calendar) and you can actually find some of those sites available. Have you seen the pictures of Odie, the 77 lb doxie? I'm following him on FB. His owners were elderly and couldn't afford dog food so they fed him sweets. He was finally rescued and his foster mom has him on a diet. He's lost almost ten lbs now.
ReplyDeleteThere are lots of nice lakeside sights there right now. I have seen Odie and it was awful. Sure hope his health holds out until he can get back in better shape. Doxies love their food so you have to keep an eye on them as weight is hard on their backs as you know.
Deleteit sure looks nice..yes, I wish we were there too ! Both you and Birdie enjoy your R&R cause that looks like you could probably do a little fishing too..:) God Bless Zeee and Critters 3
ReplyDeleteThere was a guy fishing from his kayak right near my site when we left. He was having a ball.
DeleteEvery time we have ever been to Inks Lake the deer were everywhere - is it still the case?
ReplyDeleteLots of deer wandering through the park.
DeleteI stayed at this park about 2 years ago in one of the cabins you showed. I love that park and look forward to going back again.
ReplyDeleteWe peeked in a cabin window. They look a little more roomie from the inside than the outside. I'll go back a little sooner myself.
DeleteYou always pick the most perfect of RV sites in the best of parks. Looks like a perfect place to let the doxies roam.
ReplyDeleteThe doxies got lots of walks which they love but they don't get to roam on their own anywhere but their own backyard. Willy and Harley are too adventurous.
DeleteIt looked wonderful by the lake. I have to add that park on my list.
