      7. Westlake Day Use

      1 Review
      3 Saves

      Overview

      Westlake features four group shelters on Lewisville Lake, where visitors can spend a day picnicking or boating on the almost 30,000-acre reservoir, just outside the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

      The lake rests above an archeological site where prehistoric remains have been found. It is believed these early humans inhabited the area as far back as 12,000 B.C., making this one of the oldest human-inhabited sites in the Southwest United States and Mexico.

      Natural Features:

      The day-use area sits on the western banks of Lewisville Lake. The lake stems from the Elm Fork of the Trinity River in northern Texas and generally has low visibility, but plenty of surface acres for boating and fishing.

      Recreation:

      The lake hosts a number of fishing tournaments each year, drawing anglers from all over to try for trophy-sized bass.

      Warm water temperatures offer ideal conditions for water sports including boating and jet skiing.

      Facilities:

      Each of the open-sided pavilions come with a large grill and water, and are all within walking distance to a restroom.

      Blackjack Oak is lakeside with large shade trees. This pavilion seats 50-75 people and has electric hookups.

      Bur Oak seats 100-150 people and has its own parking lot.

      Cottonwood is close to the shoreline, has electric hookups and seats 100-150 people.

      Green Ash sits in a large, open field and offers electric hookups. It seats 75-100 people.

      Nearby Attractions:

      Horseback riding and golfing can be found nearby. The active city of Dallas is about 40 minutes away.

        Nice easy place to stay the night. Bathrooms and showers are super clean. Not the most scenic of places but quiet and fairly easy to access - highway construction was underway in June 2024.

        Pelham City Park

        Pretty run down and amenities not accurate:

        THERE ARE NO SHOWERS OR FLUSH TOILETS INCLUDED IN THIS STAY ACCORDING TO CITY WORKERS…when we arrived I went into the building to check out showers and a lady asked me what I was doing then informed the showers are for paid pool goers and there are vault toilets by the rv dump site, but they were locked. The sites are all covered in hitchhiker burrs, our dog found them all haha. The sites have water hookups but they’re in-ground and several are washed out so almost impossible to hook to without getting mud in your hose.

        East Fork Park Campground

        Functional with good views

        Pros: Great views of the water and wildflowers in the meadows. Reasonable price. Everything works and the shaded picnic tables are a plus. 5G plus signal on ATT for anything you might need online. Downsides: It looks like there could be a lot of water pooled on and behind our site with a heavy rain. The pad has definitely broken up over time and isn't level. The fire pit is also sitting at an angle. We noticed two groups of campers with 4-6 extra cars having gatherings last night, so that might have been distracting if we were right next to them.

        It seemed like there was a bustling weekend before, as the trash was overflowing, attracting hundreds of noisy, bold, and assertive crows xciptv apk. Despite my food items being securely locked inside my closed car, these crows favored my location the most. The scene reminded me of the intense atmosphere from Hitchcock's movie,"The Birds."

        Overall really good

        Visited Skyview in September 2023 - overall it's a solid RV park with some really nice views. We've only stayed for 2 days, but it's been really good and we've had great time.

        It's located pretty close to DFW so everything you would need is close-by(we've visited Big Bend one our first day and Gritr's gun range( https://range.gritrsports.com/ ) on second since we wanted to check out the city itself.

        Cedar Ridge Mobile Home & RV Park

        Solid option if you're near Dallas

        Stayed there during our trip to Texas, after visiting Big Bend. Overall, pretty good spot for RVing.

        Couldn't find any photos, probably is on the camera I've left at my folks house during the trip.

        Pros: easy to find, quick booking, good view.

        Cons: can't remember any.

        Also a semi-pro is that it's located pretty close to a bunch of outdoor sports stores( https://gritroutdoors.com/ is the one we've visited most I think) so if you forgot something on your trip - it's pretty easy to pick up.

        Pretty sunset right on the water

        We got a primitive campsite right on the water and we’re able to fish a little bit once we arrived. We got there after 5 but there is a kiosk where you can check in and grab a map to find your site easily. The park is pretty big and there was a nice fire pit and picnic table we could use. It was still really hot during the time of year we went, but other than that it was nice.

        Nice State Park

        Nice state Park. We stayed here 3 nights. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Although the park has been around awhile it is maintained well. Our site had plenty of room to the next site, had a covered picnic table, fire ring, and lantern hanger. Water pressure was 50 psi, sewer hookup was close, but electrical box was in the front and most modern RV's electrical connection in the back (30 foot cable just reached). The park is close (2.5 miles) to Cedar Hill where you can find shopping, dining, fuel, etc. Would stay here again.

        Gone Fishing RV Resort

        Great RV Resort near Lake Texoma - Gordonville, TX

        We've been staying at this gated RV Resort since May, 2023. The new owners are amazing! Customer service is top notch and they do everything to make you feel at home. There is complimentary trash pickup, a dog walking area with dog stations, benches for relaxing and watching stunning sunsets, on-site laundry, propane and ice for sale and a fish cleaning station. Park also has complimentary wif-fi and Verizon and AT&T work well here. Owners are currently in the process of remodeling the office, 3 bathrooms and they are adding a fitness area. There will be a general store complete with snack items and ice cream once complete. All sites are full hook up, 30 and 50 amp sites available. Lake Texoma and the boat launch is 1/4 mile away. The owners provide complimentary boat launch passes too. There is a casino with cafe approximately 1 mile away, 9-hole golf course about 2 miles away and multiple restaurants and shopping within a half hour.  We also went on a fishing charter with Triple Header Fishing Guide (thfgtx@gmail.com) and it was so fun. We highly recommend this RV Resort. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed!

        I stayed overnight here while traveling from Galveston, Tx to Ohio. The employees were friendly and accommodating. Check in was easy and the campsites offered some privacy as they were spaced pretty far apart. Lots of shade trees and very peaceful. I would definitely stay here again.
