Boerne City Lake Park provides a motorized-boat-free environment for paddling, fishing, and outdoor recreation along the reservoir of Cibolo Creek.
The City of Boerne received approval in 1972 to build a dam and reservoir on Cibolo Creek for municipal water and flood control, creating Boerne City Lake. In 2005, the city developed the surrounding land into Boerne City Lake Park to offer public recreation. The park now serves as an outdoor gathering space for the local community.
No, Boerne City Lake Park strictly prohibits motorized boats. This restriction protects the lake as a source of drinking water and maintains a quiet environment for paddlers and swimmers.
Entry is free for City of Boerne residents. Current nonresident vehicle fees are $10 Monday through Thursday, $15 Friday through Sunday, and $20 on holidays; check the city fee page for eligibility-based discounts.
Boerne City Lake Park features a covered playground, an 18-hole disc golf course, walking trails, and volleyball nets. Visitors also have access to picnic units with grills, a fishing pier, a boat dock, and a covered pavilion.
