The River Is Calling

The real star of the show at Indian Lodge Resort is the Brazos River. With its deep, slow-moving waters and towering limestone bluffs, this stretch near Lake Whitney is a paradise for nature lovers, paddlers, and anyone who appreciates a quiet place to cast a line.

We offer direct access to the river and lake from our boat dock and launch area, making it easy to bring your own canoe, kayak, or fishing boat. Want to explore the area?
