      Free parking on a lake with bathroom and tables

      Overall good free spot right on the water. We weren’t quite level on the road but nice to have bathrooms with running water and picnic tables right outside. Sign said you can stay for multiple nights.

      Plateau — Lake Mineral Wells State Park

      Big spots and clean bathhouses

      Two last nights we got here all the way from Carlsbad Canyon at 9 pm ,park closes at 10 pm. It was a long drive to get there and when son showed us out in the lake , what it looked like then we shaked heads and said are You sure ? It had rained a lot before we got there and the lake was floating over the road by the dam drive over,it was rather scary .

      Lots of trails to walk in area, but because of this massive rain its not possible to walk over by the dam,just to be aware if it. 

      We got lots of sun next day and had a good time walking around at the campground, we took a tour into town ,nice little town to walk around in some intersting stores there.

      We saw lots of birds and turtels in the lake.

      We had a lakeview from the oppsite of the road.

      Weatherford-Fort Worth West KOA

      Needs some work

      Generally I’ll stay at a KOA for a night when traveling through. They are like McDonald’s, nothing special but you know what to expect. This one was below par even for a KOA. We arrived just at 5:00 pm but the office was already closed. Didn’t see any staff before we left in the morning. Out checking information was available on the bulletin board. A sign said there were no more available sites, but there were clearly over 40 empty spaces. Many of the sites need new picnic tables, and the trees are full of dead branches. However the grass was mowed. Sites are very close together. Closer than most. There is a grassy dog park. There is also the a playground- a swing set! Also a pool which appears functional. Bathroom and showers were adequate. !

      There is an RV repair facility next door.

      We screwed up and booked a different spot and our camper was too long. Oakdale was able to accommodate us on short notice. The staff was friendly and informative. Our kids had a great time in the expansive pool and enjoyed the snow cone stand across the street. The adult enjoyed the well-stocked pool bar!

      Dodge City RV Park

      Good spot for camping

      Been there last year during out trip to Texas( mainly hiking in Britton park and a few other local trail spots and camped at Dodge City RV park)

      Pros: good clean spots for camping, everything you might need is pretty close
      Didn't try RV spots, but those looked really nice too.

      Cons: Didn't find any.

      If you gonna be visiting TX during June-July for trailing and camping - my advice is: make sure to get a pair of comfy shoes(my go-to are Brooks men's running shoes like those https://rununited.com/mens-footwear/) - trails are pretty rough and it's extremely hot and humid near bodies of water... Gotta dry your shoes every few hours

      Visited Skyview in September 2023 - overall it's a solid RV park with some really nice views. We've only stayed for 2 days, but it's been really good and we've had great time.

      It's located pretty close to DFW so everything you would need is close-by(we've visited Big Bend one our first day and Gritr's gun range( https://range.gritrsports.com/ ) on second since we wanted to check out the city itself.

      Beautiful!

      Spacious sites. Shade trees, small pond, fishing, dog park, friendly staff. They have a very nice pool and hot tub. The permanent residents are nice and it’s a great little community. I highly recommend this place. There is some traffic noise since the park is close to the interstate but it didn’t bother me.

      Cedar Ridge Mobile Home & RV Park

      Solid option if you're near Dallas

      Stayed there during our trip to Texas, after visiting Big Bend. Overall, pretty good spot for RVing.

      Couldn't find any photos, probably is on the camera I've left at my folks house during the trip.

      Pros: easy to find, quick booking, good view.

      Cons: can't remember any.

      Also a semi-pro is that it's located pretty close to a bunch of outdoor sports stores( https://gritroutdoors.com/ is the one we've visited most I think) so if you forgot something on your trip - it's pretty easy to pick up.
