My husband and I enjoyed swimming in Canyon Lake. The lake is clearer than most Texas lakes. We had a picnic at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dam park. They are lacking picnic tables so we sat on a bench. The restrooms are nice. We enjoyed hiking across the dam 1.6 miles round trip and 3 miles of trails... More

The view across the lake is spectacular. Swimming was cool but comfortable in March; I'm sure it's great fun throughout the spring, summer and fall. We enjoyed walking around the lake and bird watching from our porch. More

This is just a small lake. When we were there it was during the drought of summer 2011 and the lake was drying up. The Guadalupe river is much better. More
