    Rood Creek Park Camping

    Perfect Spot

    Perfect camp spot. Drove a dirt road through farmland about a mile or so and took a left at the end towards the campground. Only one other campsite taken. Each site has a trash can and a picnic table. It was awesome. Had my own bathroom setup, so didn’t check theirs out, but they have a small facility. We did see a small gator in the creek. Woke up to fog on the water. It was beautiful!

    Also had 1-2 bars of service with T Mobile.

    Chewacla State Park Campground

    Close to Buc-ees and I-85!

    I called on Sunday afternoon and immediately connected to a young lady who assured me that a site was available. The loop is nicely designed, full hookups, passing your target on the left (better visibility). There are glamping tents for rent. Several hiking trails, including a waterfall trail are inside the gate checkpoint. The park is close to town, meaning abundance of food options and cheap gas (2.499) on June 6, 2025.

    R. Shaefer Heard Campground

    Beautiful Privacy, Brutal Bathrooms, and Locked Gates at Night

    We stayed here in June, Thursday through Monday, two people with a tent. The experience was... memorable, though not always for the right reasons. 

    The bathhouses are something out of a post-apocalyptic travel journal— rusted fixtures, broken tiles, and enough cockroaches and spiders to start a nature documentary. Yes, they are“cleaned” occasionally, but whatever’s happening isn’t winning the war. They’re not just in the mist of past centuries— they’re lost in a heavy, choking fog. 

    Facilities are very limited, and it’s clear this campground wasn’t designed with tent campers in mind. You’ll wait in line for restrooms, and you won’t enjoy it. 

    The sites themselves? Old, worn, and could desperately use even a single coat of fresh paint— but the lawns are mowed, and the forest is real. If you value privacy, you’ll love the layout: each site is tucked deep into the woods, with excellent space and seclusion.

     But beware: the gate is locked shut from 10 PM to 8 AM, no exceptions unless the elderly host personally deems your emergency worthy. Installing a simple keypad would save everyone time and dignity. 

    Starlink users: take note— if the lake is high, the shoreline disappears, and with it, any chance of a clear shot to the sky. Reception through the trees was very poor. 

    Wildlife is busy here— armadillos, raccoons, and rabbits all feel quite at home on your tent pad. It’s charming, if you’re into that kind of thing. 

    The lake sees constant activity: motorboats, water skiing, even boats creeping along at night. It’s not peaceful water. If you came to paddle in silence or sleep early, this might not be your dream spot— unless the noisy party crowd is your own.

    Lakepoint Resort State Park Campground

    Memorial Day weekend

    Lakepoint Campground is an absolute treasure! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how clean, well-maintained, and peaceful everything was. The campsites are spacious and thoughtfully laid out, providing just the right amount of privacy while still feeling connected to the natural surroundings.

    The lake views are breathtaking—perfect for early morning coffee or a sunset stroll. We enjoyed fishing, biking, and just soaking in the beauty of the area. The trails are well-marked and offer a great variety for all skill levels. Plus, the wildlife sightings were a real treat—deer, birds, and even a curious raccoon or two!

    Restrooms and showers were clean and well-stocked, which is always a huge plus.

    Highly recommend to anyone who loves the outdoors!

Guide to Midland

What to do

Fishing from shore: At R. Shaefer Heard Campground, campers can fish directly from their sites. "Most all are concrete pads and level but if your camper is over 25' or so length may cause a problem. Not really any hiking to do other than take a walk around the campground that's huge. Kids on bikes seemed to be having a ball, mostly relaxing and if your into fishing for adults," notes one visitor.

Waterfront recreation: Shoreline swimming spots provide alternatives to developed beaches. "We had spot 96 and we tent camped. The spot was recommended in another review and it was wonderful. Right beside the water so the kids were able to play in the water most of the time," shares a camper at R. Shaefer Heard Campground.

Hiking nearby trails: Franklin D Roosevelt State Park Campground connects to extensive trail networks. "Great camping spots with lots of trees and a creek running through. Many gorgeous hiking trails, several starting from the camping area," explains a frequent visitor.

What you should know

Water level fluctuations: Lake access changes seasonally. "The lake is down right now because they are repairing the dam so it was fun to walk along the banks," notes a winter visitor to R. Shaefer Heard.
