Beautiful State Park Full of History
Beautiful campsite. The fort is very interesting. I was there on a re-enactment weekend and really enjoyed talking to all the re-enacters. A lot of great history. At night the coyotes sang me to sleep.

North D&D - Brazos River Public Use Area #4
Quiet and serene
Camped here on a weekday in November and we pretty much had it all to ourselves. Clean facilities with toilets and showers. Deer roamed free and the lake was peaceful with a small dock for boating and fishing. Enjoyed it here.

Off-season boondock paradise
One week stay during the first week of December D&D south. Weather: highs in the 60s, lows in the 40s. Covered picnic tables, grills, fire pits, trash cans at most sites. Restrooms spaced throughout the park. Massive trail system throughout the area. Excellent service for school/remote work. Ideal for tents, vans, truck campers, and small trailers. No cost during May-September. No water or dump in the parks, but there are showers. There are sites directly on the water and up in the hills. Would return!

Visited mid-week; hot weather, lake breeze, and shade made it pleasant. Locals fishing or grilling slightly diminished the wilderness vibe.

Quiet and secluded
A very private site. The trees make it where you can’t see your neighbors. The updated showers are very nice.

Nice secluded and quiet
Very nice and quiet state park. Clean restrooms.
The park rangers here are phenomenal and so helpful. It’s one of our favorite state parks to visit.
Site 30 is large and perfect for a kiddo to run around.

History and Lodging
The entire park was well maintained. The restrooms and showers were modern, neat and clean. The historical site was closed for tours on the day that we stayed, but we were able to walk around the site and visit buildings. The signs on the outside of the structures were very informative and we were able to peek in the windows to experience life during those times.
Our stay in Site 41 was perfect for solitude and comfort. No bright lights from other RVs. There was only 1 other RV in this section. The partially shaded site had electricity and water. It is located quite a distance from the restroom/shower area.
This campground offers fun, history and camping all in one place!

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.

Possum Kingdom Lake BRA - Bug Beach: BRA Area #5
5 Public Use Camping Areas for free
Tent camping areas in all 5 with shelters, grill, and picnic tables, many waterside. Public Area 4 and 6 have RV pads (which they do charge $10 to use in the Summer) with shelters, grill, and picnic tables, and many are waterside. Public Area 5 has grass pull thru RV parking. All 5 have bathroom facilities with running water and flush toilets. We parked at #5, also known as Bug Beach and we had the place to ourselves, with the exception of a herd of deer late afternoon. Beautiful scenery and exceptionally clean campground facilities.

Hubbard Creek Public Recreation area
Hubbard Creek Reservoir
Stayed her for three weeks. It really is a nice spot for being free, but because the locals don't pick up their trash, it may not be available because of it. There is new manager taking over, and according to the one worker I talked with, I am not sure how much longer this will be available for us nomads.

Laid back
If you like a laid back approach to camping, this place is it. They advertise "farm fresh eggs" at the bait shop, and though we didn't partake, we know they were serious because of the chickens that were roaming the grounds. One of them inspected the storage bay of my travel trailer while I was setting up! We arrived about 4 p.m., and there was no one around to check in with, I think because of a family emergency of some sort. So I just picked one of the open RV lots and backed in. When I did check in later with Amy, she said "no problem" with the lot I picked. Like I say, "laid back"!

Free parking on a lake with bathroom and tables
Overall good free spot right on the water. We weren’t quite level on the road but nice to have bathrooms with running water and picnic tables right outside. Sign said you can stay for multiple nights.

Plateau — Lake Mineral Wells State Park
Big spots and clean bathhouses
Two last nights we got here all the way from Carlsbad Canyon at 9 pm ,park closes at 10 pm. It was a long drive to get there and when son showed us out in the lake , what it looked like then we shaked heads and said are You sure ? It had rained a lot before we got there and the lake was floating over the road by the dam drive over,it was rather scary .
Lots of trails to walk in area, but because of this massive rain its not possible to walk over by the dam,just to be aware if it.
We got lots of sun next day and had a good time walking around at the campground, we took a tour into town ,nice little town to walk around in some intersting stores there.
We saw lots of birds and turtels in the lake.
We had a lakeview from the oppsite of the road.

Small but nice state park
This state park only has 4 full hookup sites but they are private feeling. The tour of the civil war buildings is very cool.

Weatherford-Fort Worth West KOA
Needs some work
Generally I’ll stay at a KOA for a night when traveling through. They are like McDonald’s, nothing special but you know what to expect. This one was below par even for a KOA. We arrived just at 5:00 pm but the office was already closed. Didn’t see any staff before we left in the morning. Out checking information was available on the bulletin board. A sign said there were no more available sites, but there were clearly over 40 empty spaces. Many of the sites need new picnic tables, and the trees are full of dead branches. However the grass was mowed. Sites are very close together. Closer than most. There is a grassy dog park. There is also the a playground- a swing set! Also a pool which appears functional. Bathroom and showers were adequate. !
There is an RV repair facility next door.

Nice state park
Beautiful park with great trails and stunning views of the lake. Lots of trees and grassy areas. Bathrooms are clean but older for sure. Site was in the smaller side for RVs and not the most level.

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.

Oak Creek RV Park
Beautiful!
Spacious sites. Shade trees, small pond, fishing, dog park, friendly staff. They have a very nice pool and hot tub. The permanent residents are nice and it’s a great little community. I highly recommend this place. There is some traffic noise since the park is close to the interstate but it didn’t bother me.

This place was a pleasant surprise. Not a soul here at 5pm. Shade spots, or on grass. Picnic tables and trash bins, swimming area and a boat launch. Bit of washboard on the road, but nothing drastic. Probably busy in summer but a great stop for us in late January.

Right in the lake
I was able to park right on the lake. I stayed one night on a trip. It was just before the heat hit. Lovely night in my van.
