    Lake Houston Wilderness Park

    Really Nice Cabins

    I have stayed in the cabins here four or five times. The first two years we had smaller groups so we stayed in the A Frame cabins. The last three years we've had their biggest one. There is a creek that runs through it and it is never over populated while I've been here. The cabin we've used was flooded and has not been rebuilt so we are looking for other places to hold our Spring Camp out. I hope they rebuild.

    Rayford Crossing RV Resort

    Well Managed and Manicured

    We had to return our travel trailer to the dealership for some warranty work and wanted to have one last little getaway before handing it over. We opted to stay somewhere in the vicinity of the dealership, and this campground had an opening. So, we booked one of the last remaining sites and hit the road!

    Located in a suburban area north of Houston, the campground was very easy to find. It was nestled among nice suburban homes but still close to the amenities of a suburban city. We arrived after the employees left the front desk, so they instructed us to pick up our materials at the front office. We immediately noticed how well maintained this campground was. We easily found Site 21, a standard back in site. The sites are all concrete and level with a yard of grass and full hookups, which we really appreciate. We were surprised that our site didn’t have a picnic table like we thought, but we probably could have called to request one (wasn’t a huge issue in this July Texas heat).

    This campground is more like a residential area. We noticed that many vehicles were gone early on a weekday morning. Many of the “campers” had potted plants and other items that indicated they were long-term occupants. There were many rules for the campground such as no items allowed on the grass or under RVs and no trash cans at sites, but none of these were unreasonable. Staff was visible throughout the day, often maintaining the grounds and collecting trash at each site (trash collection is each morning). It was extremely quiet, clean, and manicured.

    Would we visit this campground again? Yes, if we plan to visit the Houston area for business in the future. We prefer the forest and the solitude that it affords, but this is a nice place to stay if you have business in the area. Rayford Crossing has amenities that may appeal to families with children such as a playground, beautiful pool, hot tub, shuffleboard, horse shoes, and fishing. The nice paved roads and sites and the dog park were nice as well. Our only complaints would be the price and lack of privacy, but I guess that’s to be expected in an RV resort near a major US city like Houston. Basically, it served our purpose.

    Double Lake NF Campground

    Personal opinion for my interests

    Campground not full. Very quiet, sites not on top of each other (some more private than others), gravel pads for rv, tent, table, lantern post and campfire ring. Water & electric or primitive sites both available. My personal agenda is all things nature related. The land, peace, plants, birds, land animals and TREES, water sources and types. To enjoy all the beauty (in all forms) which our earth provides.

    Thousand Trails Lake Conroe

    Very well kept TT campground

    The campground is well laid out. Easy access to sites, amenities and the Lake. Although its a small portion of the lake on the campgrounds side, you do have access to boat rentals,  a boat launch and plenty of parking. So if you have a boat, it will be a wonderful experience. Plus there is a beach area for families to enjoy. 

    The cottages look almost brand new. The campground even has a location to wash your RV or vehicle.

    Park On The Lake

    VERY close together/owner is awesome

    We stayed here on Labor Day weekend. It was very packed. However at this location everyone sits right on top of one another. There wasn’t even enough room to sit outside and enjoy it. I will have to say the owner is VERY helpful and nice. We pull a 35 foot 5th wheel and he originally had us in a spot where our rig would not fit. He was so kind enough on a busy weekend to swap us to a different spot at the very last minute. We were right on the water and we got to fish. If I had to rate this spot I would give it a solid 7 out of 10 just based on the fact that we were so close to one another. No fire ring or picnic table. Bathrooms were clean and facility in general there was pleasant.

    Houston East RV Resort

    Beautiful Landscaped Sites

    Ok these are all premium sites, resort is easy off and on i-10. Gated resort, nice sites, roads are all nice concrete, with concrete parking pads for RV and or tow vehicles. The sites are nicely landscaped, grass, trees, picnic tables, full hookups, include cable and wifi. It is located right off and beside i-10, so there is road noise, but everything food, restaurants, shopping, is all nearby. It's a great stop if traveling i-10 passing through. Oh they also have covered RV sites should you want to beat some of that sunshine off your rig in summer heat. There is a small pool that is nice, and a lake behind campground so one row of sites has lake views. We just took a pull through site under the canopy of trees, it's very nice!

    Eagles Point RV and Camping

    Hidden Gem!

    Even though our reservation was last minute, the owners were super quick in getting back to us. The guy who met us at the camp was also very friendly and showed us to our spot. $35 for dry camping, but there’s was also a cool pavilion that we were allowed to use that has a power outlet where you can charge your phone. There’s also a barbecue pit and a fridge too.

    There’s plenty of space for dispersed camping and the lake is magnificent.

    There seemed to be some long term residents but they won’t bother you at all. Restroom and shower super clean.

    T-mobile signal was also strong. Would stay here again!


Guide to Cleveland

Cabin camping options around Cleveland, Texas offer rustic to modern accommodations within the piney woods and lake environments of East Texas. The region experiences hot, humid summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F and mild winters with occasional freezing temperatures. Most cabin rentals remain open year-round, though winter months see reduced occupancy and sometimes lower rates.

What to do

Swimming and water activities: Several cabin locations include swimming areas during warmer months. Matthew B. mentions that Double Lake NF Campground offers "a nice swimming area and ample bathrooms/showers."

Wildlife observation: Cabin guests can observe local wildlife from their accommodations. Emily S. shares her experience at Lake Houston Wilderness Park: "Lots of wildlife in this park, saw many snakes in camp and on the trails."

What campers like

Privacy between sites: Campers appreciate cabins that don't feel crowded. At Double Lake NF Campground, JenniferWinning notes, "Very quiet, sites not on top of each other (some more private than others), gravel pads for rv, tent, table, lantern post and campfire ring."

Clean facilities: Well-maintained bathrooms and shower facilities rank high on campers' priority lists. At Northlake RV Resort, Sabrina T. shares, "Everything is very clean, bathrooms, grills, swings, pool, and hot tube. The laundry room is modern and very clean."

Natural waterways: Creeks and lakes near cabins enhance the camping experience. Zachery S. comments about The Preserve RV Resort: "Have 3 little boys who enjoy fishing and they have plenty of creeks and ponds near campsites; it isn't the most luxurious parks but if your looking for a state park feel this place is a home run!"

Proximity to urban amenities: Though nestled in natural settings, most cabin camping near Cleveland provides reasonable access to supplies. Erin R. notes that Double Lake NF Campground has "Near by groceries store and town playground close by."

What you should know

Reservation systems vary: Some parks require advance booking while others offer first-come options. Preston M. explains that Double Lake has "24 hour first come, first serve campsites, but I think you can also reserve spots on their website!"

Check amenities before booking: Cabin facilities differ widely between locations. According to Russell E. at Thousand Trails Lake Conroe, "I booked this site because it shows wifi as an amenity. However, the wifi is a pay-by-the-day only offer."

Site selection process: Some campgrounds have unique check-in procedures. Debbie J. explains, "The campground is huge, and you cannot reserve a specific site. You drive around and pick a site, then call and let them know which one you're in."

Seasonal closures: Operating hours can change seasonally. David T. discovered this at Lake Houston Wilderness Park: "Noticed the visitors center we closed on Tuesdays, but there ding said the front gate entry was open till 6pm Sunday through Thursday so figured a Tuesday would be safe to find the spot. Got there and the gates are locked."

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly activities: Some cabin locations cater specifically to families with children. Amanda C. recommends Lake Houston Wilderness Park: "Plenty of trails, wildlife, bathrooms and good fishing. We go here a lot! It's always good fun! And very clean."

Cabin size considerations: Match cabin size to your family needs. Devin P. notes that Double Lake is "Deep in the woods and on a nice shallow lake. Fantastic for walks around the lake, playing in the park, and fun trails."

Tips from RVers

Site access challenges: Some camping cabins near Cleveland, Texas have limited access for larger vehicles. Marcy F. notes about Browder's 3278 Marina, "We have stayed here several times and always have a great time," though RV parking "is tricky because of all the trees."

Hookup verification: Confirm utilities before arrival. Karen B. advises about Thousand Trails Lake Conroe: "Beware that not all sites have full hookups."

Road conditions: Interior campground roads may need maintenance. Karen B. also mentions, "I walk the dog a lot and run and road around the grounds needs to be repaved, lots of pot holes and uneven areas."
