Garvin Lake and Lakeside Pavilion. Outdoor destinations on campus; check university access and reservation information before a visit.

Check at the address, not the town name

  • For campus visits or events, use the university’s directions, parking, and reservation information; an address’s distance from campus does not establish a walking route or service boundary.
  • School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: TEA school district locator, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
