Most developed sites include electric hookups, water connections, and standard amenities like picnic tables, while a few primitive options exist for those seeking a more rustic experience.
Permits and reservations are typically required for most developed campgrounds in the region, especially during peak summer months when lakeside spots fill quickly. Water levels at Lake Lewisville can fluctuate seasonally, affecting shoreline camping areas. Many campgrounds remain open year-round with Texas climate allowing comfortable camping in all seasons except during occasional summer heat waves. Campgrounds near Argyle generally feature level terrain with good shade coverage from mature trees. Cell service is reliable throughout most camping areas due to their proximity to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. A camper described Pilot Knoll Park as "nice campground, clean, close to lake and peaceful. Good space between sites. Bathrooms were clean."
The lakefront experience dominates positive reviews for camping in this region. Several visitors specifically mention the spaciousness between campsites as a key advantage at parks like Pilot Knoll, which one reviewer called "my happy place, my home away from home." Campers frequently note the contrast between feeling removed from urban areas while actually being quite close to suburban amenities. Water activities form the centerpiece of the camping experience, with boat ramps, docks, and swimming areas available at most established campgrounds. Wildlife viewing includes waterbirds and occasional deer sightings. Despite their proximity to the metroplex, many camping areas maintain a surprising level of seclusion. Noise levels remain reasonable at most campgrounds, though weekend periods typically see higher occupancy and corresponding activity levels.

Perfect for the Family!
Our family had a fantastic 2 night stay. We’ve only stayed at Johnson Branch on Ray Roberts in the past, and have loved Isle Du Bois. Our site is surrounded about beautiful lush trees and overgrowth. The beach is right up the path and my two boys (4&6) loved playing in the water with the kids. Our site is also two sites from the playground and bathroom/showers, which was super convenient! Will definitely be back and eyeing a site right off the water for some fishing!

They have the best cookies!
We've had a wonderful experience at Sugar Hill RV Resort. The park is gorgeous, quiet, and always well-maintained, but what really makes it special is the staff. Kyla goes above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome, she gave us cookies and is always quick to help with anything that comes up. It's rare to find a place that feels this friendly and genuinely cares about its guests. We highly recommend Sugar Hill to anyone looking for a great place to stay.

After filling out the required paperwork, Jeffery the manger stopped responding. Would not recommend going through the hassle with this place!

One of the Most Beautiful Campgrounds of Our Trip
This was easily one of the most beautiful campgrounds we stayed at during our trip. The view over the water is absolutely stunning, and because there’s plenty of space between the campsites and large trees provide shade over many of them, the whole place feels incredibly welcoming and peaceful. We were really disappointed that we could only stay for one night. The only small downside was the bathhouse. It was reasonably clean, but very warm inside because there was no air conditioning, or at least it didn’t seem to be working. The showers were also a bit inconvenient since they didn’t have proper showerheads. On the positive side, each shower area was spacious and included its own private toilet, which was nice. Aside from this minor issue, this is a truly beautiful campground, and it’s definitely a place where we would have loved to spend a few more nights.

Peaceful Waterfront Campground
Like most of our stops, we only spent one night here, but it was a really nice campground. The sites are large, and being right by the water makes the whole place feel peaceful and relaxing. A big plus was the covered picnic tables and benches at each site, which made it much more comfortable to eat outside without sitting in the direct sun. The only small downside was the bathhouse. It was nice to have your own private bathroom with both a toilet and a shower, but the shower only produced a small stream of water with fairly low pressure. Upgrading the showerheads would definitely improve the experience. It's also worth knowing that you can't access the campground after 10 PM, apparently not even with an access code. Other than those minor issues, this is a really beautiful campground and a great place to stay.

Ups and downs
Its beautiful. The bathrooms were closed, due to being out of order. The camp sites and view were fantastic. Management reimbursed me for our stay due to the bathrooms.
Shawn S.LegendHickory Creek COE Campground
Peaceful lake campground
We have stayed here twice and loved it. Make sure you tie down any kayaks or boats due to wind buy the water. Ours blew away, boo. The spots are great and amenities perfect. The gate does close at night so be careful that you dont get locked out. Learn from our mistake or you have a long walk.
