Awesome long term spot. Has a concrete RV pad that you can park your camper on or park beside it and use the very long pad as your patio, which is what we did. Management very responsive to needs and any questions you may have. This spot is on a very quiet area with minimal boat traffic. We had one camper behind us and they were super quiet. Super nice. Laundry at the office for reasonable price to use the washers and dryers.
This is a great, non-- parking lot style campground. Every site is covered with trees, and though they are a bit close together you feel connected with nature. Two restaurants within walking distance. Shaved ice within walking distance. Kayaks available. There’s a nice designated swimming area in the lake, and a fishing pier. The hosts are very accommodating.
Jake from the Dyrt here! We're excited to have this campground on the Dyrt and ready for you to book, check them out and make sure to leave a review!
We drove from NWArkansas the end of January to purchase a conversion van in Tyler, but towed our 19-foot Coleman camper just in case the van didn't work out, at least we'd have a nice camping trip! We stayed in a pull-though space (#340) which was large enough for our Tundra, the Coleman, AND our newly acquired 2000 E-350 Sportsmobile Van.
The campsites were quiet (except for our dogs, who loved the racoons and deer...sorry!!) and well maintained. Beautiful walk around the lake to watch the sunrise. The facilities are standard state park facilities...everything worked. One toilet was a mess, but that wasn't the rangers' fault. One would think women would be more mindful of the mess they make.
Note that the gift shop isn't open on Tuesday/Wednesdays, so if you want a head badge for your walking stick, you can purchase one at the ranger station CASH ONLY. Highly recommend this park.
This place was beautiful and so serene. Bathhouse is very clean. A lot to do here. Wish we could have stayed longer! My favorite place so far!
Dean, the owner and manager, was exceptionally nice. The area is quiet and well maintained. Easy location to access from I-20. Verizon works great. We’ve been several places throughout the country and our site was extremely level. Plenty of room in pull through sites to keep toad hooked up behind 42’ Tiffin Bus. Nice area to stay overnight or for few days.
This is a great park! We enjoyed our 2 day stay here. The bathrooms leave much to be desired (like air conditioning for one) but the park more than makes up for it. The sites are shaded and well maintained. The park has received some upgrades with more planned. The swimming area is well marked and nice hard sand bottom. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.
Great campground on the lake except no wifi (yet).
Stayed here 5 nights waiting for our property to be ready. Called into the office like we have every morning and was told"sorry you have to leave we reserved your spot." ON MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!!!! Who does this??? No notice, didn't say anything all week. But sure took our money! Poop all over the grass. The dog park is nasty! They give you all the rules, very strick. LOUD, the highway is right here. Unprofessional!!!!! Never again!!!!!
We had no choice but to stay for 2 months due to unfortunate events, but this place will make sure that you are treated like you are below them. We were always told to follow the rules, but the rules seemed to only being getting longer and stricter everyday, but the weekenders and the live in free workers didn't have to follow, we paid resort prices for no resort accommodations, what was "included" in the price wasn't included for us because we paid monthly not daily, (it's cheaper and it was literally 700$ a month so not much cheaper) the camp site for us was ran down and had prior campers trash left over that we had to take care of because it was "your responsibility" as the nice lady stated in the store front of the campground....I don't have kids in diapers, and I had to clean up over a dozen of poop filled diapers from our campsite, my youngest is 9...but as the leady said it was my responsibility to clean my campsite up upon arrival...then they tried to fine me for it...and the broken picnic table, that's bit the worse part, the worse part was the live in workers freely went threw our outdoor stuff (we have portable garden beds with veggie and fruits) by the time they freely helped themselves without my permission I had to restart my garden...I'm poor and lost everything so I'm literally starting all over again...I took out a large loan to get a type of hike for my son and I just to be treated like dog poop on the bottom of ya boot....when I brought it uo to them and started to complain about the chaos and rudeness I was told to "ignore it won't happen again" until it did...this time a weekender thought it would be adorable to throw rocks at my kid and dog...I will never go back.
We have really enjoyed our time here at Texan RV Park while attending the RV Fundamentals Course at the NRVTA. The manager, Betty made herself available to assist with any problem 24/7. The park itself is immaculate. There are 2 ponds, cabins, a clubhouse laundry, beautiful showers. There are food trucks on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Activities nearly everyday. Everyone that stays here is attending a class, so everyone visits with each other. I really really like it here.
Very friendly staff. Helped us get settled in a spacious pull through site on level, hard packed, crushed stone. Really nice area to walk the dogs!
Great spot in the Piney woods of East Texas. Minutes from Tyler State park. Perfect spot for large families or groups. Amenities are not fully finished till summer, but there will be a great number of improvements such as water park, warming tub and restaurant.
I brought my dog on a two night weekend stay and we had a blast. The campsite was well maintained and we loved all of the trails.
Ashley here from The Dyrt! We’re excited to have this new partner online. They are a working cattle ranch, event venue, and rustic cabin vacation rental property. Check them out and leave them some love!
Dean is a wonderful manager. Always makes sure you get what you need the park is clean and big very friendly
Very clear grounds and bathrooms. All concrete pads and level. This is a large park and staffed will. Cost is a bit high at $50.00 a night but I like the campground.
Ver private and natural setting
The road in isn’t bad but it’s pretty dippy in some spots so if you have a large vehicle take it slow.
The directions take you to the Beach. Do not make the left turn. Camp spots are forward and to the right upon entry.
The spots are nice and spaced.
Only one other camper here when we arrived. They had tents. The spots are large enough to drive right into and it’s not to bumpy.
No bathrooms and the trash cans are all upside down and screwed to polls. So there is trash EVERYWHERE! In the lake, on the shore, on the roadways.
Other than the trash this place is absolutely breathtaking. We were on our way through so we only stayed for about 6 hours.
I imagine it’s the hot spot during the summer.
I would most definitely come back.
The park has many hiking trails. The tent sites are close together so there is not much room for privacy. Many racoons. Park facilities are clean, nice swimming area and good roads.
We we’re staying in a cabin with a plumbing issue. We were able to move to another cabin and Kevin and Chris were really helpful.
Such an unbelievable, majestic landscape that can truly only be seen in person to fully take in the beauty. Can’t wait to go back
To celebrate September birthdays, we took advantage of the king holiday weekend to visit Jellystone. We’ve been here a couple of times before, but in the winter months. It was great to take advantage of the water amenities available! My kids loved the splash pad/water slides (I did too!). The bouncy pillow is always a fan favorite, and we spent just as much time there as we did in the water. Great evening movies, lots of fun activities, and close to Tyler if you decide to venture out and get some good food, or find something to do!
Our site was very shady, and our ac had no issue keeping up with the temps. Our particular site was a pie shape. We had visitors Saturday, and there were some parking blues because of how narrow the site was. We only chose this site because it was all that was available when booking. We prefer to be closer to all the fun! But overall we were happy with the location.
This place is an excellent place to stay while learning how to be an RV technician or inspector because the park is filled with students, teachers, and TA's who are all willing to share their experience and wisdom. Many students stayed in campgrounds only 15 minutes away, but missed out on a big part of The learning experience. I'm so grateful that I paid a little bit more to stay here than I could have paid in other parks. The experience and learning that took place in the park was a huge advantage. I was able to work on my rig here and have assistance from other students and teachers as well as mobile techs working in the field
I've camper at Tyler State Park many times in my life. This is the first time in an RV. Rangers were nice & helpful. The facility is well organized & well maintained. They are constructing a a new headquarters in the pines near Cedar Point but the crews were considerate and no bother to us. No noise problems or traffic issues. The camping is limited in the Tyler area but this place is a jewel. Nice lake for fishing but few campsites near the water. Bathrooms were close & clean. Our campsite shaded our RV. No solar but there is an open area for starlink. No cell service from Verizon.
We spent one night here (May 28, 2022). This is a very nice, easy access CG with level pull through and back-in gravel sites in a beautiful area. There are a number of activities available: boating, fishing (fishing pond and Lake Fork - the lake had been drained for dam repair), birding (saw my first scissor-tailed flycatcher), hunting, biking, hiking/walking. We did not make use of the bathrooms showers or laundry. It is a great base camp to visit the area. The WiFi was great as was cell phone reception. The owners, Nathan and Debbie, are terrific. We would definitely stay here again.
