    Loyd Park

    Quiet and Serene

    We stayed here for four nights and it was a welcome retreat after staying in mini RV parks. Our spot was number 184. Not right on the water, but we can see the water from one of our windows. If we came back here again and we couldn’t get right on the water. I would choose a site with more shade like site number 190 has lots of shade.We’re here in October so it’s pretty warm. The hookups work well and the place is very well-maintained. I haven’t tried the public restrooms as our RV restroom is fine. I would definitely come back here again.

    Cedar Hill State Park Campground

    Not too impressed

    We arrived after hours after calling and instructed to just go to our campsite. The park had absolutely no signs indicating where the campground is. We were surprised to find a very sloping site with the cement bumpers missing rebar and very unsafe. No after hours phone number and no campground host. Is this any way to run a campground? We flagged down another camper who indicated that three sites were available when he checked in a couple of hours earlier. This is the first time that we encountered something like this in our years of camping. No one here to answer questions….sites in terrible disrepair still being represented as safe. We had to replace in the hopes that someone would not arrive to claim their site. In the morning we experienced pounding on our door to be challenged by armed…yes, they had guns, officers questioning why we were “squatting” Needless to say this campground is very disorganized and needs an after hours emergency phone number, campground host, safety inspections, as well as a manager who cares.

    Holiday Park Campground

    Small, fairly convenient, and very quiet CG

    We have a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed in site 73 for 1 night in mid September. The CG is clean, well maintained. The CG roads are paved, but narrow and a little winding in places. The sites themselves all seemed mostly level. The CG was very quiet and peaceful. There were only 2 or 3 other campers in the CG while we were there. Our site, 73, was a pull-through, as were several, but some were back in. The registration card says to watch for branches if your RV is over 12’ tall, but there were several branches much lower than that leaving site 73. We were able to navigate to avoid most of them, but one was unavailable, so be advised. There were lots of deer that wandered through our part of the CG. 

    AT&T coverage was pretty good with 2 bars of LTE service and speeds up to 17 MB/s. We had a clear view to the N at the site, so Starlink was fine with speeds up to 20 MB/s.

    Cedar Creek Park Campground

    Great space - hard to find

    We love this spot. Definitely ignore google to get here though… just follow the road to the end (no turning off) there are campsites to your right and left once you reach the water. At least 27 of them. Quiet. Spaced out. Most had grill and water access and the lake is a super clean rock bottom one. Super peaceful.

    The Vineyards

    A must stay!!!

    In a very nice campground with spacious FHU sites that are concrete pads and level. Great views of the lake. A well equipped campground store with lots of items. Clean large bathrooms and showers as well as a laundry room. Have events throughout the week for social activities for adults and kids. Great hosts and a very well kept campground. Definitely a place to stay overnight or a week.

    Lake Park Campground

    Quiet and Peaceful

    Check in was simple. Kasey and Shane are wonderful. Convenient to the lake. Easy access to stores and I 35. There is a parking lot for your boat or jet skis within the campground. The sites for 30 amp and smaller campers are closer to the water. 50 amp and larger campers are in the shade. I am not certain of fees for park entry. Website says that day use area is included in the amenities, but had to pay the entry fee yesterday.

    Steele Creek Park Campground

    free & full of nature - wonderful for nomads!

    We enjoyed this free campsite as we were making our way down to San Antonio, Texas. It had a water spicket, which was perfect for nomad living. We were able to wash our hair, cookware, rinse off, and enjoy free potable water. The small things, right? 

    The site we choose was private and in close walking distance to pit toilets. It has a small trail in the back, which led to the small lake. The dogs enjoyed being off-leash and the trees surrounding us was peaceful. The fire pit was wonderful and I can see why big groups would enjoy staying here!

    There was some fast-food trash around the campsite, but we did not mind picking it up. Reminder: leave it better than you found it. Overall: wonderful experience and perfectly comfortable free campsite for nomads. 

    Our Google Maps GPS was giving us issues on the entrance location of this site, since it is tucked away behind neighborhoods, so we relied on the maps and roads to lead us there.

    Hunter Park

    I had a great time here

    Hunter Park in Texas is truly a great destination for those who love camping. I had the opportunity to experience and feel the fresh air and peace here. Although the terrain is relatively flat and the trees are sparse, the closeness to nature made me feel relaxed. The weather can change quite dramatically, so I recommend being well prepared. A big plus is its proximity to Dinosaur Valley State Park and Lake Granbury, where you can enjoy activities like hiking and boating. Hunter Park is truly the perfect place for those looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of life!

Guide to Crowley

Camping sites near Crowley, Texas provide diverse overnight options within a 20-mile radius of the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area. The region experiences summer temperatures regularly exceeding 95°F from June through September, with cooler spring and fall seasons offering more comfortable camping conditions. Several campgrounds provide family-focused amenities with varying degrees of development from basic primitive sites to full-service RV parks.

What to do

Water recreation access: Rocky Creek Park on Benbrook Lake offers kayaking opportunities in a more secluded setting. According to one visitor, it "tends to dry up in the summer, but when flooded, can garner some big bass. Better kayak area than boat area."

Explore local trails: Holiday Park Campground features hiking trails that create a sense of seclusion despite proximity to urban areas. As Maxwell C. notes, the park is "just far enough off the highway to diminish all noise, surrounded by hiking trails."

Family activities: North Texas Jellystone provides scheduled entertainment throughout the day. One camper shares, "There were scheduled activities all day long and the guys were able to go fishing in the nearby lake. We all had a blast."

Flea market shopping: Traders Village combines camping with weekend shopping opportunities. According to Alejandro G., "One of the biggest flea markets around and it's 2 days of walking and shopping. Has water, power and sanitation too."

What campers like

Privacy options: Cedar Hill State Park Campground features a design that minimizes traffic near individual sites. Michael C. explains, "The park is designed with small loops for 15-20 camp sites in each loop. Very little traffic right by the individual spots."

Well-maintained facilities: Holiday Park Campground receives praise for its upkeep and spaciousness. Roger W. notes, "Large sites is a big plus. Perimeter sites are much better than inner loop sites - our site is along a lakeshore more than lakeshore."

Family entertainment value: North Texas Jellystone gets high marks for its entertainment options. Lauren Z. states, "This is literally the best campground for families. There are tons of activities, games, crafts, pools, petting zoo, water park, and more."

Shade availability: Many camping areas near Crowley offer tree cover, which campers appreciate during hot Texas summers. At Treetops RV Resort, Justin D. observes, "Lots of shade, and the trees were trimmed with plenty of room."

What you should know

Weather impacts: Seasonal flooding can affect campground availability. At Rocky Creek Park, John T. reported the park was "nice but closed again" due to flooding conditions.

Site selection strategy: Loyd Park offers various site locations with different advantages. TJ & Laura S. advise, "We stayed at site 190. It's at end of road with privacy. Our only complaint on this site is when it rains, water pours into site and erodes area quickly."

Insect considerations: Some campgrounds report insect issues during warmer months. At Cedar Hill State Park, Jill C. warns, "Fire ants and chiggers all over! But the lake was nice."

Water availability: Water access points vary between campgrounds and may be limited at some locations. At Holiday Park, MickandKarla W. note, "We needed to fill our freshwater tank and he pointed out on the map the two dump stations with potable water...Not sure what we would have done if this had been a busy weekend."

Tips for camping with families

Activity planning: Treetops RV Resort offers family-friendly amenities within a shaded setting. Jessica F. shares, "My boys jumped in the pool even though it was 55° outside and said it was a fun experience."

Seasonal event participation: North Texas Jellystone hosts themed events throughout the year. Lizabeth T. mentions, "We went in October and they had some fun Halloween activities."

Site selection for children: Campgrounds with playgrounds provide recreation options without leaving camp. At Loyd Park, Tammie L. notes, "This park is great only 45 minutes from home. They have a few full hookups and lots of RV sites with water and electricity. Sites are spaced far apart."

Transportation within larger parks: Consider mobility options at expansive campgrounds. At North Texas Jellystone, Nola M. recommends "golf cart rentals" to get around the property more easily.

Tips from RVers

Site selection for large rigs: COE Benbrook Lake Mustang Park Bear Creek Campground provides spacious sites for larger vehicles. Cindy M. observes, "The campsites offered some privacy as they were spaced pretty far apart. Lots of shade trees and very peaceful."

Power considerations: Premium sites may be worth the additional cost during extreme weather. At North Texas Jellystone, Lizabeth T. recommends, "Site was pull through but pretty tight and close to neighbor. Probably worth paying for premium."

Full hookup availability: Some campgrounds offer limited full-service sites. At Loyd Park, Cactus A. notes, "Would rate it a 5 star if it had full hookups but we had to use the dump station. But apparently they are creating some full hookup site."

Heat management: Sites with adequate shade make summer camping more comfortable. At Holiday Park, Jacob V. shares, "It was 111° the long weekend we stayed here but we found a spot with some trees by the lake and had electricity hook ups so it was actually quite nice."
