    Tyler State Park Campground

    Pretty park

    Tyler State Park is a pretty park. There are a number of hiking trails, but we were only there overnight. The lake and beach look lovely. Most of the camp sites look nice with water and electric. The bath house is clean with hot showers, but could use some paint and TLC. Sites 13, 14, and 15 were very nice especially if tent camping.

    Ratcliff Lake Recreation Area

    Magical

    Beautiful little gem. The upkeep is outstanding, you can tell it’s really looked after. The camp sites are close to each other but since it wasn’t busy it felt like we had our own private area. There is a small swim area that you should utilize because there are alligators in the lake so it’s not safe to swim by the campground. The rangers drive around a few times a day. We didn’t do the trail this time around but will try it out next time. It’s great for big groups because of all the space. They have bathrooms with a shower and plenty of toilet paper in case you forget to bring your own. It gets pretty dark at night because there are no lights except what you pack with you. There is also a water spigot and a fire pit.

    Shiloh on the Lake

    Lake Holbrook Park - South

    Good Quick Stop

    Decent camp area right by the water in a park. I wouldn’t say it’s secluded, but it’s quiet and there is enough space per site to pitch a tent and enjoy your time. I was the only person camping here when I went in January. There is a bit of light from nearby buildings/houses, but not bad. In all, it was sufficient for an overnight stop, but I wouldn’t necessarily want to stay for longer than that.

    Stillwater RV Resort

    Memorial Day weekend

    We got here at about 3 pm on Friday and were greeted by a security guard who after getting our wristbands for the weekend escorted us to our site. They really didn’t tell us anything about the place other than the gym code and to wear our wristbands the entire weekend.

    The site was clean. You will need to do some leveling. Another thing, make sure you bring a lot of sewer hose! We had our 20ft and had to go to Walmart to get an extension, they put it nearly at the front of the site! There are no trees and it is straight sun almost all day. They list that they do trash pick up at 9 and 5, you put it tied up on the gravel area on your site, but I guess with it being a holiday weekend they came by more often. There is a clean large bathhouse with showers and laundry right near a playground, basketball court, pickleball court and two dog runs. There is no fire pits, so make sure you bring a self contained one (solo stove or similar,) or they have them for rent in the office. They also have golf carts for rent which if you’re at one of the back sites you may want one!

    The pool and lazy river was nice, crowded at times but that is to be expected during a busy holiday. There isn’t a lot of seating or shade. I did see people bring camp chairs and just setting up where they could. They do have cabanas for rent, and for this weekend they were $130/day. One downside is the don’t allow outside food or drinks, which I get that they don’t want people bring in alcohol, but it would have been nice to have our own bottles of water with it being over 90 degrees. They do have a cooler with tiny styrofoam cups that they did keep filled. Our son did the WiBit inflatable obstacle course and LOVED it. It was an extra charge though, which I thought was kind of ridiculous and should absolutely be included in your stay.

    They had a bunch of activities for the holiday weekend which were fun! Duck races on two days (extra fee cash only and the only thing they take cash for), firework show (very good and free,) bingo, chalk contest, find the flags, etc!

    The report is a little pricey but all in all it was really a fun weekend! I will say, come ready to spend money!

    Ratcliff Lake Recreation Area

    Convenient. Clean enough. But underwhelmed.

    We came to tent camp and wanted to be on a lake shoreline. We stayed at #11 on Lakeside Loop.

    The positive:

    • The tent pad was nice and level and the site was very roomy (we had a tent & canopy) with tons more room to stretch out.

    • We were about 200 yards from the bathroom facilities and about 30 feet from potable water for washing up.

    • The traffic was minimal because it’s off the main road, and would have been peaceful if the group of campers at #9 had been courteous and acknowledged quiet hours.

    • We had incredible weather with a wonderful steady breeze.

    Negatives:

    • We did have a lake view, but the shoreline is so incredibly overgrown making it difficult to fish. Lots of rotted wood and brush blocks a great deal of the view and access.

    • The burn circle had a grate welded at an angle to the top, so it couldn’t really be used for building up a big fire or cooking.

    • No one drove around/checked to make sure visitors are keeping to the quiet hours, which meant we were kept awake until about 12:30 am from yelling and loud music.

    • The restrooms, while near, had not been cleaned before we arrived—toilet paper on the floors and in the shower area with lots of dead june bugs and spiders on the floor the whole weekend.

    Neches Bluff Overlook Campground

    Very nice

    Great view. Just a handful of spots but it was us and one other vehicle. The road up is a little rough. It’s had some washout and needs fixing but keep it slow and drive around the wash out

    Ratcliff Lake Recreation Area

    Very peaceful park

    Great camping area, sites are a little unlevel, but not too bad. Water is a little bit of a stretch, may need to make sure you have plenty of hose.

    Remnants of old sawmill is really cool, lots of wildlife and well maintained and marked trails to explore.

    Good fishing, and swim area is very refreshing as well!
