Airport Park

About

Airport Park is a well-equipped U.S. Army Corps of Engineers campground located on the northern banks of Waco Lake, positioned between the lake and Waco Regional Airport. The campground operates year-round and offers 96 campsites including 46 RV sites with 50-amp electric and water hookups (22 of which also include sewer), 14 tent-only sites, 8 screen shelters with electrical outlets and water, and a group camping shelter with electric, sewer, and water hookups. The park provides modern amenities including restrooms, showers, a sanitary dump station, fire rings, BBQ grills, and lantern posts at each site. A two-lane boat ramp with dock provides easy access to Waco Lake for boating and fishing. The lake contains abundant submerged timber along the shoreline, creating excellent habitat for catfish, crappie, largemouth and smallmouth bass, and sunfish year-round. Airport Park is conveniently located within the City of Waco, approximately 10 miles from Magnolia Market. Nearby attractions include the Waco Lake Wetlands with educational tours through a six-acre aquatic plant nursery featuring over 130 bird species, as well as Cameron Park Zoo. Gates are locked from 10 PM to 6 AM, and maximum stay is 14 days per 30-day period.
