Relax on Lake Granbury This Summer

lake granbury

One of the best places to be this summer is on the water at Lake Granbury soaking up the sun. The most popular recreation activities at Lake Granbury are boating, kayaking, jet skis, paddleboards, and fishing. Granbury City Park Beach is a popular destination on the lake for its sandy shores, picnic areas, and boardwalk access. Thankfully, as a guest at our Granbury Bed and Breakfast you’ll have direct access to the lake from our lawn and dock area.

Lake Granbury is one of three manmade reservoirs damming the Brazos River in Northern Texas. It was created in 1969 and has become a poplar destination for tourists and visitors alike. The long, narrow lake has more than 100 miles of shoreline, perfect for relaxing and cooling off in the heat of summer. When you finally get to dip your toes into Lake Granbury, you’ll officially be on vacation time.

Our Texas Bed and Breakfast has a front row seat to all the activities of Lake Granbury. It’s hard not to notice our beautiful dock area, painted a bright Caribbean blue and equipped with lounge chairs, tables, and umbrellas for shade. This is one of our favorite spots in the world for our morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine. It offers spectacular views of Lake Granbury and you’ll want to spend a lot of time here on your stay.

We can’t wait to host you at our Granbury Bed and Breakfast; book your room today!

Enjoy the Serene Calm of Lake Granbury at our B&B

There’s no better place to wake up in the morning then at our Texas Bed and Breakfast on Lake Granbury. Our quiet and private grounds lead directly to the water and you’ll love the expansive view before you. After you’ve joined us for hearty, multi-coursed breakfast—either in the privacy of your own room, our dining room, or out by the koi pond—you’ll be ready to head out for a full day on the lake.

Here are six ways to relax on Lake Granbury this summer:

  1. If you’re really looking to just kick back and relax, grab your vacation reading, a floppy hat, and some shades and make yourself at home down on our dock. It’s a great spot for birdwatching, fresh air, and catching some rays.
  2. Head to Granbury City Beach Park for a day of sandy beaches and swimming. The Tiki-style pavilion areas are perfect for a shaded picnic lunch. After you’ve eaten, take a stroll over to the Lake Granbury boardwalk or into the historic downtown area for some sightseeing.
  3. During the summer you can rent kayaks or paddle boards at Granbury City Beach Park. If you’re looking for something to kick it up a notch, Lake Granbury Marina has rentals for 20-foot SunCatcher Pontoon boats which hold up to 10 people. At the Marina you’ll also find North Texas Kayak for other boating needs. Additionally, plan on grabbing lunch at Stumpy’s Lakeside Grill or grab dessert at Stumpy’s Sweet Shack, famous for their homemade, tasty cupcakes.
  4. If you really have a need for speed, Sam’s Dock offers jet ski rentals and ski boats with add-ons like knee boards and inflatable tubes for a super fun ride.
  5. Fishing is a favorite pastime for locals and visitors to Lake Granbury. You’ll find Striped Bass in the mid-lower areas of the lake, while Largemouth Bass are more common closer to the boat docks and piers. Catfish, Crappie, and Sunfish are other varieties that you might find biting as well.
  6. Retreat back to our Granbury Bed and Breakfast for an evening at the fire pit near the lake. It’s the best place for roasting homemade marshmallows and graham crackers (one of our specialties at the Inn). The lake is a peaceful place in the evening, as the sun goes down and the fireflies come out to play.
