Cabin rental options around Flower Mound, Texas range from rustic to deluxe accommodations clustered around nearby lakes and parks. The area features several large reservoirs including Grapevine Lake, Lewisville Lake, and Lake Ray Roberts with shoreline cabin facilities. Most cabins remain open year-round, though summer temperatures often exceed 100°F while winters can drop below freezing.
What to do
Lake activities: Access points at Hidden Cove Park. The marina offers equipment rentals for water recreation plus a 3-lane boat ramp for private watercraft access to Lewisville Lake. "A 3-lane boat ramp to Lewisville Lake, rental paddle boarding, full marina, and swimming area. Seasonal restaurant with indoor & outdoor eating areas," notes Richard M.
Hiking trails: Multiple options near cabins. Twin Coves Park features walking paths through wooded areas with lake views. According to JoAnn, the park has "walking trails galore" while providing a convenient location for outdoor recreation with "kayak rentals with a great cove to paddle around in."
Golf cart rentals: Available at select parks. The Vineyards Campground & Cabins offers golf carts for easier transport around the grounds. "We boated, kayaked, rented a golf cart and more," writes Natalie S., who also mentions "incredible sunsets and my boys caught a 12 lb and 20 lb catfish right off the fishing dock."
What campers like
Shaded sites: Premium spaces under tree canopy. Treetops RV Resort provides substantial shade coverage even during hot Texas summers. One camper reports, "The trees are beautiful and add great shade. Most of spaces are pull through and very easy to setup at. We had a fire pit and picnic table."
Security features: Controlled access at certain parks. The Vineyards offers gated entry after hours and visible security personnel. Andrew B. appreciates that there are "large sites with covered picnic tables. Sites spread nicely with no one on top of you. Great security visible as well as a coded gate after hours."
Camp stores: Well-stocked supplies at lakeside locations. Many campers appreciate The Vineyards' store for essentials and equipment. "We have stayed here several times. We haven't found a bad site yet! Great fishing, kayaking, play ground, and swim area. Very well kept up. The store is well stocked," notes Mel B.
What you should know
Seasonal considerations: Prepare for temperature extremes. Summer temperatures frequently exceed 100°F, making shaded sites highly desirable. Winter camping requires proper heating as temperatures can drop below freezing. "Plenty of shade to help with the 100+ degree days," notes Cameron F. at Dallas/Arlington KOA Holiday.
Reservation policies: Book well in advance for weekends. Many parks fill completely, especially during summer months and holidays. Most facilities accept online reservations, though some may require phone booking for last-minute availability.
Site selection: Location impacts experience. Consider proximity to amenities versus privacy when booking. At Johnson Branch Campsites, Grace B. explains: "We stayed at site 136 in dogwood canyon, and it was lovely. Next time I'd stay at 137 for a bit more isolation, as you could see the boardwalk from our campsite as the area is sparsely wooded."
Tips for camping with families
Playground access: Multiple options for children. Most lakeside parks feature play areas, some with unique equipment. At The Vineyards, Michelle P. found "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."
Swimming areas: Designated beaches at several parks. Twin Coves Park maintains a swimming area perfect for cooling off during hot months. "Lake front, kayak rentals with a great cove to paddle around in. Walking trails galore. Nice bathrooms, with showers," shares JoAnn.
Kid-friendly activities: Organized events at select parks. Some campgrounds offer seasonal programming for younger visitors. Joie S. found that at The Vineyards, the "playground was amazing with an awesome 'roller-coaster' swing that the teenagers even loved."
Tips from RVers
Site leveling: Check site details before booking. Some parks have uneven areas that may require additional equipment. At Loyd Park, one camper noted, "Our spot was 171 and was very well shaded, the only thing is our trailer was level but we felt like we were leaning back."
Hookup variations: Full-service not universal. While many parks offer full hookups, some provide only partial connections. Cedar Hill State Park Campground sites typically include water and electric but may lack sewer connections, requiring use of the dump station.
Urban convenience: Quick access to services. Cabin rentals near Flower Mound provide wilderness settings with metropolitan amenities nearby. "Located in an industrial area. Lots of sites with just enough room between to not feel cramped. Nice staff. They pick up trash at your sites between 0800-1600 which is a definite plus," reports Rob N. about Dallas/Arlington KOA Holiday.
