  Ole Town Cotton Gin RV Park

  Best TX Park By Far

  This park and it’s owners are amazing! Lush, open and inviting. Large spots with picnic tables for big rigs. Laundry and bathrooms near a small swimming pool. Wait until you see inside the old Cotton gin. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Small store with cats, dogs and great conversation. Worth staying as many nights as you can! The train goes by and whistles several times during the night, like a country lullaby.

  Copper Breaks State Park Campground

  A Dark Sky park and campground

  We really enjoyed our stay at Copper Breaks State Park! The campsite was level and had 30/50 amp service with water hookups. The also had dump stations. The is a small lake in the park with boating and swimming areas. The had numerous trails. In the height of summer it is very hot so be prepared if you hike any of the trails. They also had an equestrian area. This park is in a dark sky designated area so the view if the night sky is spectacular! The restrooms/showers are very basic and about average for the Texas state parks that I have stayed at.

  I really liked the shelters that they built at each of the sites in the Comanche camping area. They are built for maximum shade but with plenty of airflow for cooling. They also look kind of cool. We saw a lot of wildlife (birds and small mammals) in the area.

  Back Forty RV Park

  Great Overnight Stop!

  This is an excellent overnight type campground in Quanah, TX! It has pull-through gravel sites with full hookups and great internet service for an excellent price! ($30 per night). There is no shade (typical of the whole region), but a great dog park and great service. The owner left us excellent instructions for after-hour arrival and even included a great magnet to remember them for next time we are headed through the area.

  Honey Flat Camping Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  Nice State Park Campground

  Honey Flat is located within Caprock Canyon State Park about one hour south of Amarillo Texas. The park has great facilities and it’s own heard of bison. The canyon is at the end of the Honey Flat Campground. Although smaller than Palo Duro Canyon it’s a beautiful red canyon photo op. The park also has popular well stocked fishing lake. Honey Flat Campground can host guests from tent camper to large 5th wheels and RVs. Depending on the location each site has some degree of privacy along with electrical and water hookups. They also have picnic tables with shelter, fire rings, and poles to hang shower bags and camp gear. They have a nearby dump station as well. The restrooms are located just north of the campgrounds along with a great playground for the kids. Homely flats is usually crowded on weekends especially during the fall and spring. I would recommend making a reservation a few months in advance. The park staff are very friendly and efficient. We like to stop over at Caprock during our trips up to Colorado and the Utah.

  Honey Flat Camping Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  State Park: Where the Buffalo Roam

  We were able to find an opening for 1 night at the honey flat campground, and enjoyed the solitude, scenery and wild life. Had 30 Amp hookup with water. Dumpstation and bath facilities. The sites were good size with fire rings and shaded picnic tables. Need to be aware of texas wild life. Many hiking trails and staff at the information center were nice and helpful. Need to plan trip far in advance as sites fill up quick if you plan on staying for awhile.

  Honey Flat Camping Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  Love the Bison

  We stayed here on the way to Colorado. It’s about a one day drive for us from Austin Texas. The park exceeded our expectations for experience and amenities. We arrived at 7pm and the ranger station and visitors center was still open. They have a small gift shop and your can also rent items including fishing rods for the well stocked fishing lake. The views of the red canyons are worth the visit. The morning sun light on the canyon is incredible. The hidden surprise is the huge herd of bison. They congregate around the main entrance at sundown and you can get very close in your car for some great shots. The site was perfect for our sprinter van with privacy between the sites, water, and electric. We don’t need water or electric but find these larger sites provide some space and privacy. The sites have picnic tables, sun shades, and hooks for hanging clothes lines or drying out tents. We visited in July and the outdoor temp was 94 degrees at 9 pm. So you need to plan your visit if you are tent camping or you can ac is limited. They have great facilities including RV dump station and clean restrooms with showers. Lots of folks travel to Palo Duro which is just up the road but Caprock has a lot to offer. We plan to come back in the Fall to do some hiking and camping. Another good Texas State Park. The town of Turkey Texas is close. This looks like an interesting stop with cafes and a nice theater.

  Wild Horse Equestrian Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  Well maintained and accessible canyon exploration

  Wild Horse Campground Spot 74 

  I showed up at the welcome center with a reservation for primitive camping, not realizing the only spot to set up my RTT would be the parking lot. A nice lady working the desk, slide me into a spot that had cancelled earlier that day at the Wild Horse Campground. 

  Wild Horse is the equestrian camp and each spot has horse pens, picnic table, fire ring(though burn ban was in effect while we stayed) and water. No restrooms. The campground is behind a drive through gate that you have to close to keep the buffalo out. 

  Only one slot had horses while we were there. Several had mountain bikers staying in them. Everyone besides us and the horse folks were in ground tents. Plenty of room for us and the horse trailer setup didn’t look too cramped either. Slots are well spaced out, but not much privacy– see tree comment below. 

  Not much shade to be had except what little you get from scrubby mesquites, but if you are looking for lots of shade, this probably isn’t the park for you. The park itself is great. Easy to get around. Lots of well-marked trails. Bring water and what for snakes. Gorgeous canyon views and features. 

  Very quiet after sundown.

  Quitaque(kitty-quay) is a couple of miles from the main entrance and has a convenience store, a grocery store and a couple of cafes. We drove ten miles further to Turkey, Texas for dinner– very cool setup at Hotel Turkey. Good food, good music and fun casual outdoor atmosphere. Be sure to check their website for hours. Speaking of website, we had no service on Verizon cellular except very slow spotty connections from 10 pm to 7 am. Service in Quitaque and Turkey was very spotty and very slow. 

  Definitely glad we stopped here. Wouldn’t hesitate to do so again.

  Ole Town Cotton Gin RV Park

  Oasis on TX Route 287

  It was 105 degrees F and this campground was an oasis in the west Texas desert. A little green grass in the campground and some shade trees too, along with a pool. 

  I arrived after closing. Check in was easy. Just picked up a packet outside the office and chose an empty spot. Nice and level and had a shade tree too. Full hook-ups and a quiet night's sleep. I didn't hear the train over my AC. Very pleasant. Great management. Clean facilities. I'd definitely stay here again when I pass through this way next time.
