Description

The Granger WMA has 10,888 acres located in Williamson County. This area in east central Texas is part of the Blackland Prairies Ecological Region. The WMA is managed under a license agreement with the US Army Corps of Engineers.

The US Army Corps of Engineers operates four parks on the shores of Granger Lake: Friendship Park, Taylor Park, Willis Creek Park, and Wilson H. Fox Park. These parks provide campgrounds, restrooms, picnic areas, boat ramps, and opportunities for shoreline fishing. An entrance/boat ramp fee is charged at all USACE parks. The San Gabriel Wildlife Management Area provides a one-lane boat launch for jon boats and canoes only. Adequate parking is available free of charge. There is also bank access to the San Gabriel River above Granger Lake off County Road 348. Parking is limited to the paved shoulder, and the path down to the river is very steep.

The lake takes in approximately 4,400 acres with the remaining 6,643 acres of land being divided into 8 separate hunting compartments.

Please note:
  • There aren't any restroom facilities on the WMA, park facilities are the nearest available.
