      The Vineyards Campground & Cabins

      Disappointing and unnecessarily confrontational experience.

      I booked and paid for a campsite at The Vineyards in my self-contained Sprinter camper van. I checked in without issue and had already spent one night there when the park manager, Lisa, approached me while I was relaxing inside my van to inform me that my vehicle was not welcome.

      She stated that the city requires RVs to have hookups and be commercially manufactured. However, the campground’s published policies explicitly allow management to approve converted camper vans (and I am fully self-contained). It also allows for truck campers, which I suppose theoretically could have sewer hookups, but I assure you my custom converted Sprinter is more aesthetic than a truck camper, if that was her concern (no offense to my truck camper friends).

      I also could not find the city ordinance she was referring to.

      I understand that campgrounds have rules and that management has discretion to enforce them. What I don’t understand is why my reservation was accepted, why I was allowed to stay overnight, or why the situation needed to be handled so confrontationally.

      When I offered to leave if they would refund my unused second night, Lisa told me it was too late for a refund and that I might as well stay.

      So apparently my van was prohibited until refunding my money became the alternative.

      I wasn’t causing a disturbance, requesting special accommodations, or asking to use facilities I hadn’t paid for. I was simply enjoying a campsite I’d reserved and paid for.

      The campground itself is lovely, which makes the experience even more disappointing. A straightforward, respectful conversation about their policies would have been entirely reasonable. Instead, I was made to feel unwelcome at a place where I was already a paying guest.

      If you’re traveling in a self-contained converted camper van, I’d strongly recommend getting written approval before booking, regardless of whether your reservation is accepted. And given that I am now reading other complaints of the staff being rude, I might avoid this spot altogether.

      Thousand Trails Lake Tawakoni

      The good then some not so good

      Mid-size oak trees all over, starlink internet is ok, very quiet and not crowded. Our electric power was very poor, and the roads are busted up asphalt for the most part. Forget fishing unless you have a boat. We would come again

      Cedar Hill State Park Campground

      Big and beautiful.

      Lots of different types of sites. Large sites with a lot of privacy. Be sure to look at driveway lengths.

      Hidden Cove Park & Marina

      Great for first-timers and families

      I stayed at Hidden Cove Park for 1 night in February with 2 kids. Overall, this spot is really nice. The campsites are clean, spacious, and close to the lake. You can walk right down and fish from the bank, and the views are calm and peaceful. Although the wind was so strong, we didn’t get much fishing done.

      The setup is convenient too. There’s a water spigot at the site, a picnic table, nearby bathrooms that were decently clean, and a trash dumpster close by.

      Privacy is the biggest downside. The campsites are pretty close together, so you’re definitely gonna see and hear your neighbors. I had some loud neighbors and had to ask them to turn the music down. Then at 12:01 AM… the same folks fired up an electric saw to cut firewood, which definitely messed up my rest. Not really the park’s fault, but the layout doesn’t provide much separation, so your experience depends a lot on who’s around you.

      For those wondering about cost, it’s$25/night, which is a good deal for the amenities. But parking is another$20. I don’t understand that, but OK. With fees, my total came to about$70, plus another$5–6 for firewood.

      Since the parking lot is nearby, you’ll see headlights shining through at night when cars pass. Not a dealbreaker, just something to know.

      On the flip side, being close to the parking lot is actually good and the 2–3 minute walk made hauling gear easier.

      No bugs at all while I was there. It was too windy to fish, but the kids still had a great time. There’s also a basketball court, volleyball area, and a hiking trail.

      The restaurant was closed, which wasn’t a big deal, but would’ve been nice. They do sell firewood at the front for a good price.

      I also love that it’s only 15 minutes from home, but it feels like a world away. That alone makes it a great little reset spot.

      This is a great place for first-time campers, families, or even solo trips when you just need to get away for a bit.

      Cedar Hill State Park Campground

      Private sites.

      Stayed in the Lakeside Loop. Very private patio areas. Large park. Pay close attention to site lengths. No margin for error. Swim beach, multiple boat ramps, perch pond and lots of day sites.

      Wind Point Park

      Beautiful

      Great environment & friendly staff. My only complaint is rowdy neighbors almost fist fighting drunk a site over. Children were present and foul language was being used and foul music was being played. I am young only 28 and the music was not family friendly. I have no kids but others nearby did. Other than the certain members on that site everything was great.

      Twin Coves Park

      Wonderful Family Camping!

      This was the first time our family has camped two consecutive nights. My two boys 4/5 had a blast at the site, walking the trails, and finding spots to throw rocks into the lake. We were surprised at how quiet the campsites were, especially with how many people were staying in the park. P1 was great, right next to parking and the street, which was also the only minor drawback. If staying primitive, P3 is the way to go. We will definitely be back!

      Cedar Hill State Park Campground

      RV sites are spacious

      The RV sites have a full backyard in them with fire pit and easy access to hook up. The road in front feels kind of busy though, from the satellite view it looks pretty quaint but in reality it's kind of busy.
