I car camped here while passing through TX in a tent site, and I found the peninsula-like campground gorgeous! Lake views, deer, and a well-kept bathhouse just feet away. Spots are close together with few trees around, although few others were around.

Hords Creek COE in Coleman, TX Site #75 50 amp Full hook up Pull through site April 12-16, 2024
The site was roomy with lots of shade trees. Our door faced the west & trees were not close enough to our RV to block out the evening sun. We did have a lakefront view, but the lake is WAY down.
This loop was full over the weekend, but sites are spaced just far enough apart that you can still enjoy the peace & quiet.
If I had a choice of any spot in the park, it would be #73.
Will definitely be back. — at Hords Creek Lake.
TravelerHords Creek COE in Coleman, TX Site #73 50 amp Full hook up Pull through site March 2024
In the last 23 days, we’ve stayed in 6 parks, I have to say that this is my favorite park so far.
The site is roomy with lots of shade trees with a lakefront view (even though the lake is WAY down). Sites are not on top of each other.
There were a few people here when we arrived, but never heard a peep out of them.
The peace & quiet that we’ve experienced in this park is beyond words. Relaxation at its best!
When we come back, we’ll either get the same site, or #76. — at Hords Creek Lake- Lakeside Park.
GuideThis place is BIG. Very spacious campsites. Wide open so if it’s windy you will feel it. There are deer roaming every morning and evening. Very interesting place but not much to do unless you are able to use the lake. There is a Walmart about a half hour away. Neat little town of Coleman about 10 minutes away has some good restaurants.
LegendGeneral: Approximately 140 sites (plus 12 cabins) spread out all around Hords Creek Lake in two areas: Lakeside Park and Flat Rock Park. According to the map, two of the four gatehouses are closed – not sure if this is a permanent closure (and don’t know if these campsites are also closed). There was no attendant at the gate when we arrived.
Site Quality: Paved/gravel driveways, some are pull-through, some have sewer hookups, and some have 50 amp electric. A bonus for us that we did not know when we reserved is that several sites have screened-in shelters with electricity and a generous-sized concrete picnic table. There are many trees throughout the campground and although we didn’t need the shade when we were there, I imagine it would be nice during the hot summer. There is also a fire ring but there was a strict fire ban when we were there (In fact, there was a large wildfire about 8 miles from the campground and we had been warned to stay ready to evacuate if the wind changed direction).
Bathhouse: There seem to be more than adequate bathhouses located throughout, however, the one closest to our site was small and somewhat inadequate: one shower, one sink, and two toilets. If the campground was completely full, this may pose a problem. There was no hot water, even in the shower and the shower door did not have a latch for privacy. Also, no hooks or shelves, or soap dispensers. Make sure you bring a towel if you do not want to use the air dryer.
Activities/Amenities: There are several boat ramps, fishing docks, and swimming areas at different points of the lake. There was a nice, covered playground in the Lakeside Park campground. It is a bit of a hike to the dumpsters.
This was an overnight stay for us as we continued to travel through Texas, but we appreciated some of the amenities offered at this campground
GuideVery nice park. We are at pad # 84 and it’s great. They have a large concrete pad next to the trailer . Very new picnic table. Rest room , shower is very clean
TravelerBeautiful and spacious sites, unobstructed view of the lake, well maintained park. Site 76 is at the last site on the stretch right beside the dam with no thru traffic (boat ramp is closed) and we never saw or heard anyone down there the entire weekend. Full hookups on that stretch and large shady spots with covered picnic tables, a fire ring, and a grill. Absolutely love this place and will definitely return regularly.
GuidePark is beautiful and reasonably priced. Sites are great!
ScoutGreat place to camp. Very clean and has everything you need to camp. Great staff, very kind.
GuideFirst time here. All hookups worked. Friendly staff.
RangerNice RV sites and CCC built cabins on a relatively low traffic lake. There are many stone works from the CCC including benches and tables at some sites. We stayed in the Comanche trails loop which is part RV sites and part tent sites. I really liked it, compared to the other 2 RV loops we saw. There are some medium length hiking trails with lots of deer, feral hogs, snakes, skunks, raccoons, armadillo and more to see. The lake has a nice grassy shaded swimming area. We saw plenty of people fishing. Overall a very nice park that I'd visit again.
GuideLake Brownwood area is full of trees, nice lake for boating, fishing and jet skis. The state park sits on a pretty cove of the lake. Sites 50,51 offer privacy and are close the bathroom/showers....not too close. You can see the water, but aren’t lakefront. Typical state park amenities. Sites have fire ring and picnic tables.
Sites 57-65 are right on the water, but are packed in side by side. We loved site 50.
LegendIn the middle of nowhere but so awesome to stop at on a long trip. Beautiful lake with a beach. Lovely trees everywhere around your sites. Gravel but mostly level.
LegendThe remarkable area of this park lies not in it's campground loop. The loop is pretty, lovely even, and it looks like a lot of other campgrounds on a beautiful lake. But take a walk along the lakeshore trail and see the cabins, dance hall, and steps constructed by the CCC and you'll be transported back in time. In 8.5 years on the road, I've never been more tempted to go inside than by these simple, lovely, stone structures. Just a bed, small kitchen, table, and a bathroom complete with vintage rustic decor, and that's all you'll think you ever need. So adorable!
But this is a campground review so let's get back to it. The campground seems like the perfect bustling summertime holiday vacation spot. It's set up more like a city park with lots of open space and grass, than individual sites carved out of the woods. Walking around during winter, you can imagine the families gathering at the water, renting stand-up paddle boards, playing volleyball, or chasing a frisbee into the water. It has a reputation for being a place where families gather year after year, and I can see why. There are electrical/water sites as well as tent only sites right by the water, which really have the best location in the park. The bathroom is a little dated, but functional and clean with hot showers.
Brownwood is within a 20 minute drive and has all the services of a modern suburban city. There are several trails throughout the park, but getting out on the water seems to be the focus of this park.
ScoutWe have been renting cabins here for years. Each cabin is rustic and unique. There are tons of easy trails and shore access. It has great fishing areas, bridges, and stone structures to explore as well.
TravelerWe stayed in loop 2 site 149. Very big well spaced lakeside sites. Wanted to add more days but the weekends book full. Plan ahead and book early.
LegendLake Brownwood State Park. We had a great time over here, not the biggest park but still very enjoyable we rode our bikes a lot there are a 3 miles bicycles, trail plus a hiking trail, and a few small trails around the park. The RV sites are not very private but still, it was a good time, because of the rain the previous nights we were able to do a fire finally. It seems like a good place for fishing there were plenty of people doing that also.
ScoutThis RV campground is beautiful and away from any road or city sounds and light pollution. This would be 5 stars but there are very few full hookup spots with sewer. Go to Recreation.gov to reserve your spot. If your in the area you won’t regret the stop!
LegendI would rate this park 3.5 out of 5 stars. The park has a variety of facilities which earns it a 4 star rating. But the quality of the facilities only earns it a 3 star rating. So it averages out to 3.5 in my opinion.
Lake Brownwood State Park is pretty much located in the center of Texas. However, it is a bit of a drive from many of the major cities like Houston, San Antonio, Austin and Dallas. It is fairly convenient to reach from Abilene and San Angelo. If you need to pick up camping supplies there are grocery stores and sporting good stores in the nearby town of Brownwood.
The main attraction of the park is that it is situated on the shores of Lake Brownwood. There are ample opportunities to take advantage of lakeside activities like swimming, boating and fishing. There are a variety of camping options with tent sites, cabana sites and RV sites. At most of the sites there are nice oak trees that provide shade and can support a hammock. Note that Texas State Parks require 2 inch suspension straps when hanging a hammock. There are boat ramps, fishing piers and a loop hiking trail. The hiking trail is a loop trail, fairly level, but I would say moderately interesting. The real attraction of this park is the lake.
Some of the facilities such as the restrooms and the cabanas are a bit dated and could benefit from an update. The staff was very friendly when I visited. And the other campers were respectful.
I would like to say that I visited the park during a weekday when the park had few visitors. However, I've heard that on the weekend the park fills up quickly and can be quite busy.
TravelerCorp of Engineers campground. Very clean, playground, fishing, swimming.
GuideThis park is a gem. Located on the shores of Lake Brownwood. It’s a civilian conservation Corp park and has many wonderful pavilions and guest halls and guest houses for rent. Fishing, boating, hiking. Something for everyone!
TravelerThis camp ground is well kept. Plenty of RV spots and tent spots. We like to tent camp. The bathrooms are pretty clean and maintained, and you never have to go to far to get to one. We take our bikes to get around. I’ve gone to Lakeside since I was young for family reunions and camping and I love it. It’s always so peaceful and I love to watch the deer that roam around. My go to spot!
TravelerEnjoyed our time at Lake Brownwood SP! Stayed at Campsite 50. It was close to the restrooms, but it was a private site. Hiked the Lakeside Trail and the lake was perfect for our kayaks!
Scoutvery nice place. great place for fishing swimming camping and boating. super nice personnel. very nice and clean showers and restrooms.
GuideTravelerGreat little lake for Camping. Not too crowded. Nice roads. Great campsites.
ScoutIt is friendly, clean neat, well kept, the bathroom s have hot water to shower, and the landscape is peaceful
