Booking Inks Lake State Park in March
Texas state parks open reservations exactly 5 months in advance at 8 a.m. Central — so for a March trip, the booking window opens in October. Popular weekends can disappear within minutes of the window opening. If your dates are already full, set a Camp.land alert and we’ll email you the moment a cancellation opens.

- ✓9-hole golf course inside the park

Tips
- →Devil's Waterhole is the park's signature spot — get there early on weekends before it gets crowded
- →The lake stays full even during drought — a major advantage over other Highland Lakes parks
- →Bring a canoe or kayak (or rent one) — paddling the shoreline coves is the best way to experience the park
- →The 9-hole golf course is surprisingly fun and dirt cheap
- →Sites closer to the lake can be noisier on summer weekends — back loops are quieter
