    Cypress Black Bayou Recreation Area

    Great Park

    This is a parish ran park that is very well maintained. Security measures are excellent. The park is shaded and all sites are either lake side or almost. There are back-in and pull-through sites. Not all of the park is FHU but they have three pull through dumps. There is a new bathhouse that is very clean and requires a code to be entered on a keypad for entry. There is a small wildlife sanctuary (zoo but no petting) and free roaming peacocks. Good fishing from the docks or by boat. The park is close to shopping, casinos, and restaurants. Love this park.

    Lake Texarkana

    We stopped here while bikepacking through Texas in June 2014at the time it was simply due to convience but I was VERY pleasantly surprised! I found a campground I definitely want to visit again with more time to spend at the campground and all it offers! It's quite large, well kept with a friendly staff. Its mere size makes it nice if you just want to go for a bike ride around the park itself. An abundance of wildlife to see. We were visited at our site by an armadillo and we had the the joy of watching a mother & father owl teaching their child how to hunt for It's meals. Their bath houses were immaculate and air conditioned. I can't begin to capture the beauty of this park in words or pictures. You'll just have to trust me enough to give it a try. You won't be disappointed!

    Beautiful views friendly host

    We stayed for a quick night en route north. The host left the gate code for us since we arrived after 9 and checked on us in the morning. Site B14 was a pull through with an actual deck looking out on the lake. It was beautiful and easy to set up in the dark, fit our RPod and a truck easily. Clean bathrooms, lots of wildlife. Trash in the fire pit and the water was hard to turn on but those were minor issues. Would stay there again.

    Nice and dark for star gazing

    We, unfortunately, only got to spend one night here on our way through the area but enjoyed some great stargazing due to the park being quite dark.

    We appreciated electric and water being at the campsite, especially for only $14 per night.

    The only thing negative we noticed during our very short stay was that while the bathrooms were clean, they seemed old and small. Men and women each had just one shower stall and it was behind only a shower curtain in the main restroom area. (We were in the Wilkins Creek Loop.)

    Staff was friendly and welcoming. We'd like to come back and explore the area more when we have time.

    Daingerfield State Park Campground

    Clear, calm lake bordered by towering pines

    This park is easily in our Top 3 in the Texas State Parks system. It's a small park, but a little slice of heaven. Towering pine trees grow right up to the waters' edge. So peaceful. Donna, my wife, will often sit and gaze over the water. 

    The park is neat and tidy, and the bathrooms have always been clean. There are several picnic tables by the lake, a swim out platform, kayaks, paddleboats, a fishing pier, and a few swings on the playground. We typically visit during the week, so it's always been pretty quiet. And if you need supplies, there's a Brookshire's grocery nearby(only a few miles away). One trip, we decided to fish and grabbed bait from the Ace Hardware in town. 

    We love laying in our hammocks, watching the pines sway, and listening to the birds sing. In the warmer months, we swim and splash around the floating platform. And with a fire pit at every site, s'mores are a given each night(so long as there's no burn ban). 

    There's a short trail that circles the lake(about 2.5 miles). We do it EVERY trip. It's a beautiful and easy hike. Take a picnic and make your way to the CCC picnic area on the lake's other side. There will be a spot where you can enjoy your lunch, looking back across the water.(But don't let your dog grab your PB&J when you're not looking or you'll be hungry on the way back.)

    Poison Oak and Tall Weeds

    PROS 

    Saved $42 With TX STATE PARK PASS 

    No fee to reserve online. 

    No sales tax. U

    pon arriving at Site 23, we had no power at the pedestal. Called Park Headquarters and 2 park personnel were at our site in 10 minutes and resolved problem 

    Site 23 level asphalt 

    Site 23 partial shade 

    Aluminum picnic table, 2 hook lantern pole and metal fire pit with cooking grate 

    Donation firewood available 

    Soap and hand dryer in toilet/shower facility 

    3 bars TMOBILE when not storming 

    CONS 

    No overnight security gate closure 

    Site 23 was 1/3 covered with poison oak and remaining living area covered with tall weeds. 

    Some highway noises. 

    Two PARK HOSTS occupy sites in Woodpecker Hollow. That reduces full hook up sites to 6. One of those sites were used as a temporary dump station due to out-of-service park dump station 

    Woodpecker Hollow toilet/shower facility needs some deep cleaning 

    11 windows in Woodpecker Hollow women’s toilet/shower and only 4 were open. Camp host said rest of windows were painted shut.  Floors were continuously wet and slippery. What a mess! This place needs a fan or two.

    Most pets we saw were NOT on leash 

    No privacy from surrounding campsites 

    No ranger drive thru Woodpecker Hollow 

    No park WIFI

    Texarkana RV Park & Event Center

    Not impressed

    Made reservations for a back in site. Upon check in, nobody was in the office. Called the number on the door and was directed to park in the pull-through immediately at the entrance. Gate is broken and doesn’t close, nobody at the check in, RIGHT off the highway. Didn’t feel safe. Very loud. Playground area was very old and not maintained. “Dog park” was a 6ft x 6ft chain link square. Lots of permanent lots that are kind of gross. There is a new Love’s hookup & Sunrise RV parks nearby— will be using those in the future! Will not be back.

    Nice and Quiet Under Tall Pines

    We arrived for our 4-night stay at this COE campground 177 days after making reservations and were greeted by friendly camp hosts. Our FHU site was spacious but weirdly laid out that had our fire pit just two feet from the neighbor's sewer hookup. Who designs these sites?!?! Level D loop site with sewer hook-up at the rear of parking pad, so bring your loooooooooong stinky slinky!  Heavy-duty concrete picnic table and a bar-height wooden prep table next to a BBQ grill, or as we saw many using it as a fish cleaning table. No vegetation between campsites in the D & E loops. Very clean park! Since our four-night stay was during the week, it was extremely quiet, no road noise, with more than half of the campsites vacant. At 6am we experienced a no-warning total power outage throughout the park for nearly 3 hours. Wildlife viewing was only a couple of deer at dusk 

    We read warnings about ANTS so we prepare all items where our trailer touched the ground with ant repellent. We didn't experience any ants what so ever, so not sure if it was because of the repellent or the cooler October temps or we just got lucky!
