    The house we looked at booking is way up the Colorado arm near inks. Is it still crowded way up there usually?

      Hamilton.

      Spend a week every summer on that lake with the family.

        Not nearly as crowded as the main lake or make River arms
        Your pretty much at the start of what we call the rocks because of the big granite outcroppings that are out in the middle of the river. You will still have some traffic but not near as much as the main lake. You will have to be careful when running the boat until you clear the rocks.

          LBJ is a cluster and a nightmare all in one no matter what you’re planning on doing on that lake.

              Pretty much every lake in the highland chain has the zebra muscles now and it didn't take long either. Buchanan inks marble falls Travis and lake Austin all Ave them. The worst is Travis and lake Austin so far.

                  We rented a house on LBJ a few summers ago... Never again for me. Unless I'm off the water by 10AM. Put water over the bow off my wakeboard twice the first day we were there and decided that was enough.

                  I had a buddy that had a house down there when i young and I don't remember it being near as crowded but that was 30 years ago now so I'm sure it's changed dramatically.

                    Yes, I considered LBJ to be quite frankly, dangerous. Not again for me.

                        That about sums it up for me too. In the summer, it is absolutely ridiculous. But you could trailer over to Buc pretty easy. Beach the pontoon at Shaw Island and let the kids play in the water.

                        No experience on Hamilton.

                          I would go to Buchanan. For a guide fish with Jackie with Empty Pockets Guide Service.

                            Huddleston RV Rental (501) 226-5599

                            It’s on 270 and Akers Rd. If you come into town from Malvern its on the left before you get on the bypass.

                              They’ll deliver set up and pick back up. They’ll do a late pick up also if you talk to them before hand.
