    Dinosaur Valley RV Park

    Loved it!

    Every site is pull through with full hookups and has a fire ring & picnic table! Staff was very friendly and store had all the essentials. Clean restroom and shower (1 stall), pet friendly and beautiful pool/ hot tub. Right across the street from Dinosaur World (which our 2 year old loved) and outside the gates of Dinosaur Valley State Park. Will definitely be back.

    Dinosaur Valley State Park Campground

    Family camping

    Nice camping spot for families. I chose to camp in the north primitive hike-in sites across the river. It was pretty hot but I still had a good time exploring the hiking trails. If you go hiking, take a map and of course extra water. My map came in handy a couple of times as I was hiking as the actual trails led me off track a few times.

    I stayed in the primitive camping area. You hike between 1-2.5 miles across the river to sites. If the river is too high these sites may be closed. Water is only available at the trailhead. These sites are primitive so they do not have showers, restrooms, picnic tables or water.

    Other sites available:

    • Campsites with electricity (Picnic tables, water hookup, electric, fire ring)
    • Walk-in campsites (Fire ring, lantern post)
    • Group camp (fire ring, water nearby, three picnic tables)

    Awesome rv park

    Good rv park if you have horses or if you are just wanting to stop with your rv in Stephenville on the way somewhere else. Not really a place I would stay at just for the experience itself. Very clean. Not many amenities to speak of. There’s really not a lot to say about this place other than it has rv spots and cabin rental. It appears it is for sale right now so if you staying in the future I would recommend calling to confirm all info is correct.

    Convenience

    My husband and I stayed at Dinosaur Valley RV Park (DVRVP) on two separate occasions in last four weeks. We stayed 1 night during our first time at DVRVP and 2 nights during our second stay.

    Here are our pros: 1.) DVRVP shares a property line with DVSP. Guests are able to purchase a day pass online through the DVSP website and access DVSP without ever having to drive through the front entrance. It was a simple 1 minute walk to access the park through DVRVP.

    2.) You do not have to enter DVSP to enjoy the Paluxy River. Guests of DVRVP can access the river by following a small trail at one corner of the park by the entrance of DVSP. Our family spent a whole day in the river a minute walk from our camper.

    3.) Dinosaur World is across the street.

    4.) DVRVP is a family owned and operated business. The service was friendly! We wanted to add a. Additional day. We called and left a message. Moments later we received a return phone call. We were placed on a wait list. A few hours later we received another phone call let us know they were able to add an additional day to our visit.

    5.) The sites are pull in and leveled for the most part. Both sites we stayed at were clean, free of trash and pet waste. The fire pits had been cleaned out. Connections are conveniently placed on driver side and we’re cleaned.

    6.) DVRVP staff hosts several family friendly activities for guests throughout the day, everyday.

    7.) DVRVP has a playground, swimming pool, hot tub, fire pit and plenty of green space for kids to roam and explore.

    8.) Pet Friendly!

    9.) No RV age restrictions! We saw old to new class A’s to C’s and towable’s.

    Here are our cons:

    1.) 2 pet limit per site. We would love to bring all three of our dogs. One is tiny and is an incident dog.

    Green Deer RV Park

    Big Rig Friendly

    This is a down home friendly place within minutes of anything you need in Stephenville, Texas. It has two full bathrooms complete with showers, work out room, washer and dryers and an area for meetings. An outside area under a huge pecan tree with small tables and chairs for hanging out with friends. There is a walking trail that’s not quite a half a mile. Two huge dog areas with lots of grass. The owners are super friendly and will respond to your needs.

    PERFECT FAMILY ESCAPE

    This campground is very family oriented, playgrounds, a "real" fort, teepee, basketball court, hiking trails, and a huge family pool. There's also a grown up only pool with a hot tub! Laundry room was very clean, as were the showers. We were in site 414 which was mostly level pea gravel. Picnic table and fire ring were on this full hookup site.

    Lake Brownwood State Park Campground

    State Park review

    Lake Brownwood area is full of trees, nice lake for boating, fishing and jet skis. The state park sits on a pretty cove of the lake. Sites 50,51 offer privacy and are close the bathroom/showers....not too close. You can see the water, but aren’t lakefront. Typical state park amenities. Sites have fire ring and picnic tables.

    Sites 57-65 are right on the water, but are packed in side by side. We loved site 50.

    Walk-in campsite with nearby amenities

    Stayed in the South Primative Camping Area, site 1. It was my first time doing a walk in campsite. While it is a relatively quick walk to the site from the parking lot, you should bring a folding wagon if you aren't traveling with backpacker gear. The site is large, with a lantern post (which I used as a hitch to secure my dog and as a bike rack), area for 2-3 tents, a fire pit with a bark-free log seat, and a picnic table. I found that the 2 trees in the center of the site are almost perfectly spaced for a hammock.

    I chose this spot so that I could avoid the hustle and bustle of a regular campsite, and also because my dog barks a lot at people walking past the tent. Unfortunately, one of the major trails goes right past the site, so I had my fair share of barking. I think this problem might be alleviated on its own when it isn't the middle of winter, as there appears to be a significant amount of foliage.

    With regards to nearby facilities - there is a trash can right across from the site on the main trail, and there is a port a potty behind the campsite, which appears to be part of the horseback riding trail.

    Despite how excellently arranged this site is, I was alarmed to see how dirty other campers had left it. Site 1 had trash everywhere including broken glass and cigarette butts.

    Trash aside, this is a wonderful campsite.

Guide to Dublin

Cabin camping options near Dublin, Texas provide access to central Texas rolling hills and woodlands where temperatures range from 30°F in winter to 95°F in summer. Located approximately 70 miles southwest of Fort Worth, this region features oak-dotted landscapes and access to the Paluxy River. Camping cabins in this area vary from rustic single-room structures to larger accommodations with kitchen facilities.

What to do

River exploration: Spend time in the Paluxy River where depths remain shallow enough for family wading. At Dinosaur Valley RV Park, guests can access the water directly from the property. One visitor noted, "Guests of DVRVP can access the river by following a small trail at one corner of the park by the entrance of DVSP. Our family spent a whole day in the river a minute walk from our camper."

Dinosaur experiences: View prehistoric tracks in natural riverbed settings. A visitor to Dinosaur Valley State Park Campground explained, "Most of the trails, and primitive camp sites, are accessed by fording the river. This can be impossible depending on recent rain." Another camper added, "This place is awesome. One of the best natural swimming holes I've found near DFW. There are dinosaur fossils everywhere."

Downtown exploration: Visit historic Hico just 10 miles south of Dublin. The town features the Billy the Kid Museum and specialty shops. A camper at Rockin' K RV Park mentioned, "Hico is a perfect place to stop and explore. A TX historical treasure with the Billy the Kid Museum downtown!"

What campers like

Privacy at smaller locations: The single cabin at Cabin on the Creek.Hico offers a more secluded experience with electric hookups and drinking water. This cabin was designed "to be a no-worries glamping getaway just outside of the Dallas/Fort Worth area," according to a visitor.

Convenience to local attractions: Cabins within the region provide easy access to regional points of interest. At Rockin' K RV Park and Horse Motel, guests appreciate the central location. One camper noted, "Easy to find on 281 heading to Hamilton. I enjoyed the peace and quiet while staying here at great rates."

On-site recreation: Many cabin locations offer recreational amenities directly on property. Dinosaur Valley RV Park features "separate adult and kids pools + a pretty good playground with great umbrellas for shade at the kids pool, plus a nice little water feature that the kids loved."

What you should know

Seasonal river conditions: Water levels in the Paluxy River fluctuate significantly with rainfall. A camper at Dinosaur Valley State Park warned, "Bring waterproof shoes or prepare to have wet shoes crossing the River."

Varying bathroom facilities: Cabin bathroom accommodations range from none to full facilities. A reviewer of Lost Creek RV Park mentioned, "Nice campgrounds. Very neat and clean. Showers & Laundry available. Nicely maintained RV spots and cabins. Good WiFi!"

Limited options for cooking: Kitchen facilities differ between properties. At Off The Vine RV Park, a visitor staying in a vintage trailer cabin noted there was "no way to cook a meal," while other locations provide basic kitchen equipment.

Reservation requirements: Most cabin rentals require advance booking, especially during peak seasons. Several campgrounds report being fully booked during weekends from spring through fall.

Tips for camping with families

Activities for children: Look for campgrounds with structured programs for younger campers. A visitor to Dinosaur Valley RV Park highlighted "weekend activities like movie night, s'mores, hay rides, and petting zoo." Another mentioned, "My kids really loved their barnyard with goats, a donkey, a horse and a pony!"

Swimming options: Choose locations with pools or river access for warm weather visits. One camper described Dinosaur Valley State Park as having "one of the best natural swimming holes I've found near DFW," while another noted you can "go swim in the river or the blue hole."

Bring appropriate footwear: River exploration requires suitable shoes for rocky terrain. A visitor recommended "water shoes for traction" when exploring the Paluxy River with children.

Research dinosaur tracks viewing conditions: Water levels determine track visibility at Dinosaur Valley State Park. One visitor mentioned seeing "multiple dinosaur footprints along the river in this park," but conditions vary seasonally.

Tips from RVers

Access considerations: Verify road conditions before arriving with larger vehicles. Green Deer RV Park receives positive reviews for accessibility, with one visitor noting it's "a down home friendly place within minutes of anything you need in Stephenville, Texas."

Hookup availability: Check electrical amperage options when booking cabins near RV sites. A visitor to Dinosaur Valley RV Park mentioned they have "80 ft pull through with full hookup" sites near their cabins.

Plan for groceries: Stock up on supplies in larger towns before arriving. Stephenville offers the most comprehensive shopping options approximately 7 miles north of Dublin.
