My favorite place to go camping is Cranes Mill Park campground at Canyon Lake.
This is a picture from my recent trip. The campgrounds are on a peninsula surrounded by the lake. There is a marina near so you can rent or launch your own boat. I usually bring a kayak.

It has awesome fishing and recreational boating. Each site has water and electrical. It costs $24 per night.
It is super clean and has real bathroom with showers. The site is heavily patrolled by staff and sheriff.
Note: If you leave after 10pm the gate is locked and will not let you in, so you have to park at gate and walk in.
They are open year around with 64 spots, accept tent and RVs each in own area.
Pro tip: make your reservation a month ahead of time as they fill up fast.
