This is a great primitive beach area. There is adequate parking at this ramp. This is one of the three ramps on the lake that are functional when the lake drops to 16 feet low. Steele Creek Park is a Corps of Engineering park which offers primitive camping and there are limited facilities in the Park. The park is located just south of Morgan and Lakeside Marina. It is an open access Park. There are two primary areas of the park. The first is on the river channel side of the park and is on the north side of the Steele Creek Park. This area has great camp sites on a bluff overlooking the lake. This side also has some good natural beach area below the camp sites. The southern section of the park overlooks Steele Creek itself. This is a brushy creek and while there is some swimming areas available, it is not as swim friendly as the other side. Each side of the park has a boat ramp. This is a remote park area and is patrolled on some frequency by the Sheriff’s Department. Boat launching is FREE at both ramps.

Meditatation is easy here. our peace here nice and quiet. Find ye for real. Love this camp site.
Scout
Great views, clean sites, however there's very limited shade.
Guide
I thought the wildflowers were the greatest feature, and then we caught sight of an angelic band of pelicans just overhead on a migratory flight - a very moving sight I will never forget.
Traveler
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!
Ranger
The facilities at the campground are great, but other people there were extremely rude. Dino tracks are very cool! Pretty crappy cell service in our site.

I love the cool summer air here. Promise for next summer stay drift boss unblocked

I've stayed at this campground on two separate occasions, August of 2023 and October of 2023. Management here does a good job. Campsites are level many are concrete and provide Electric, water and cable also free Wi-Fi.
LegendNice, quiet CG for our overnight stay. Plenty of amenities and shade trees.
Located off the frontage road of I-20. Road noise was not a bother.
The staff is friendly and helpful. They even guide you to your camp spot.
Level concrete camp spots. The FHUs were in good working order.
We would stay here again for even more than a day.
ScoutNice park make sure to watch for branches when leaving as some can be low by the headquarters.
GuideWe made a quick weekend trip to the local state park. Great clean park with a nice boat ramp. This is our home lake so we wanted to visit the state park. Would go back for a weekend trip for sure
Ranger
There may not be a lot of trails, but they are very nice. The sites are oddly level, even though they do not look like they would be.
Site 01 is a great spot, that feels about the most secluded.
Watch out for all the spider webs on the trails, if you hike early in the morning... We camped at Meridian State Park in a 28 foot Travel Trailer.

Loyd Park is a wonderful destination for anyone looking to escape the city and enjoy the natural beauty of Texas. I highly recommend a visit to Loyd Park for anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing camping experience. You should go there territorial io. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the location is unbeatable.
Scout
From the moment we spoke to them on the phone late in the afternoon, to the moment we left the next morning, these were the kindess people we have met in Texas. The facilities and grounds are clean and very fresh looking. The only issue i might mention, if it not a sacrilege to add a negative thought is that the noise from the highway does not belong there. But I sure am glad we found on the side of the highway.

Place is not consumer friendly and service staff is rude. Throughout the online reservation process nothing is disclosed regarding the terms and conditions. After they take and accept your money, they email you a link to the terms and conditions which MUST you must click ACCEPT in order to stay. Immediately tried to cancel as I didn't agree with some of the terms and they take a$50 cancelation fee. I call not disclosing this information prior to accepting payment, forcing acceptance after the fact and then refusing to return payment a shady practice. An upfront honest business would disclose this and provide a checkbox for you to agree to these terms before they collect your money. They basically twist your arm into signing to the terms and conditions if they already have your money, but refuse your stay and refused to refund in full if you won't sign.
Guide
The campground is out a little ways away from the city, but close enough that you can make a day trip to Waco or Fort Worth. The road in and around campsites is in various states of disrepair. Lots of potholes and pavement breaks make it rough hauling an expensive rig in and out of the park. They were patching some of the potholes while we were there.
Otherwise, it’s quiet with a pool, mini golf, playground, etc. It’s not fancy by any means, and not well kept up, but if you are interested in a quiet spot in the woods with plenty of hiking trails, then this is a great spot.
GuideWe stayed for a few nights while traveling through Fort Worth and enjoyed this park. It was a great location, quiet and had a playground for our kids.
ScoutThis is actually our second stay at this campground and I cannot say enough great things about it. Well kept, thoughtful hosts, a cute little campstore, an amazing playground for our kids, a beach, golf cart rentals, cabins, and you can easily pull in a giant RV. I highly recommend this campground.
Traveler
Made my reservation on line just a few spots were available. Spot 04 with a water view space is slanted. They had the parking pass ready to pick up so it was not necessary to speak with anyone. The view, electricity, water, and showers was very nice at such an affordable price. Take your cleaning supplies into the bathroom as a precaution, I did not see trash can in the bathrooms. Leave No Trace is not really practiced by other campers so feel free to pick up after someone else this space is beautiful and deserves respect. I enjoyed the rain and the view it was very relaxing and I appreciated a shower as well as powering all my extras before heading on the road to Minnesota. $14 for the space very appreciate.
Legend7 pull through sites. Very nice.
GuideStayed here for about a week. It's sooo beautiful and peaceful! I can't remember the site number, but it was overlooking the water. I went fishing several times but never caught anything, despite seeing a lot of activity in the water. But that's okay because it was fun either way. I travel pretty self-contained but it was nice to be able to grab some water as needed.
The wind was crazy a few nights. I had to put a tarp over my tent and pray lol! There were caterpillars all over that would sting... a mighty sting! All in all, it was a wonderful time and I'll definitely be going back again!
GuideWe are headed south. I look for spots close to interstate. The park is clean, well kept and no appearance of lost long timers. The attendant put us in spot 59 across the street from the dog park. But more importantly a big open field with a walking path around it. Made our fur babies happy. I get in a hurry when we are moving again so we did not try the breakfast. I'm sure it was great. Definitely, a place to stop along Texas I-35 south of Dallas.

So wanted to see the dinosaur tracks! But it rained before we arrived and they were all under water. The trails on the other side of the river were all closed, mud and treacherous terrain. The inner trail takes you along the river and has several signs with information. The campsites are nestled in the foliage and nice spacing between. You can totally get the crustaceous era feel going. The foliage is also a nice noise damper. Electric and water plus hook thing at each site. Didn’t see any modern time critters during our visit, there were raccoon tracks on the trails and one deer track. Easy ride (bike) road through the campground. Older but well maintained showerhouse. The primitive camping is right on the river and remote sites are available. Dinosaur World is right down the road which would be cool with kids. Go learn about and then actually walk where the dinosaurs did. I am totally visiting again, I want to see the tracks.
Scout
Well maintained, tons of activities for our 5yr old grandson. Only issue is the playground is adjacent to main road in campground and vehicles do not stop at stop signs it’s either not prominent enough or people don’t care. Should be more visible with a painted crosswalk our better signage
GuideWe stayed in the month of November. It was cold and rainy but the park did not disappoint. The bathrooms as so clean. The park itself is gated and secure. Each shower has its own toilet and vanity behind a lockable door. Our campsite (532) was a little awkward to get in because of the corner and the speed bumps, but not impossible. There is a pond with a fountain and a HUGE fireplace (not fire pit) for relaxing. We will definitely be back.
LegendWe were in site 020, electric only. No shade in this spot! Needed 2 blocks on the left side to level. Play ground, hiking, beautiful river! Many deer walking through the park. We were only here for one night, really wish we had longer to explore!
