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.
LegendLots of families enjoying the nice weather the weekend we were there. Cabins looked fine from the outside.

Loyd Park is a wonderful destination for anyone looking to escape the city and enjoy the natural beauty of Texas. I highly recommend a visit to Loyd Park for anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing camping experience. You should go there territorial io. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the location is unbeatable.
GuideVery hot and not heavily wooded or shaded. Sites are basic but fine. Bathrooms were nice and clean. Area is pretty snd some sites have view of the lake.

Place is not consumer friendly and service staff is rude. Throughout the online reservation process nothing is disclosed regarding the terms and conditions. After they take and accept your money, they email you a link to the terms and conditions which MUST you must click ACCEPT in order to stay. Immediately tried to cancel as I didn't agree with some of the terms and they take a$50 cancelation fee. I call not disclosing this information prior to accepting payment, forcing acceptance after the fact and then refusing to return payment a shady practice. An upfront honest business would disclose this and provide a checkbox for you to agree to these terms before they collect your money. They basically twist your arm into signing to the terms and conditions if they already have your money, but refuse your stay and refused to refund in full if you won't sign.
LegendThe campground is nice and well maintained and sites are well spaced with lots of grass, trees and/or open areas. The park staff were very friendly and helpful. This was our second stay in site 78, this time for 4 days in late March. There is no WiFi, cable or sewer hookup at the camp sites and the dump station can get a little busy around checkout time and is a goodly distance from the CG if you plan to use a portable waste cart. Restrooms and showers were clean and the shower was nice and hot. There is a nice paved 2.25 mile trail through the CG and the surrounding area.
AT&T coverage was not as good as the last time we stayed here a couple of yeas ago, with generally 1 Bar of 5G service and speeds up to 1 MB/s. We had an unobstructed view of the sky and so we were able to receive all 3 SW Dish satellites and good Starlink coverage with speeds between 2.5 and 4 MB/s. We didn’t try to load any OTA channels.
You do have pay a daily$7/person entrance fee or purchase a Texas State Parks Pass for$70 if you don’t already have one, which did add considerably to the cost of our stay.
TravelerI chose this campground for its proximity to Fort Worth, and the lake. Just far enough off the highway to diminish all noise, surrounded by hiking trails, is the well maintained Holiday Park. Offering both water and electric hookups for RVs, some with a cabin included, alongside standard campsites right at the lake shore. Bathrooms are simple, fully functional, and never too far from any site. Sites are all a good size and not too close to neighbors. Nature/Horse trails line the park, and it's fairly quiet. There's some occasional aircraft noise, but no noise from the highway. The ranger station is well staffed and by the book, all the sites are visibly well maintained, cleaned regularly.
RangerFlat site right on the lake. Short though so shorter rigs. Great VZ 5G speed for streaming. 2nd time here will return.
GuideWe stayed in the month of November. It was cold and rainy but the park did not disappoint. The bathrooms as so clean. The park itself is gated and secure. Each shower has its own toilet and vanity behind a lockable door. Our campsite (532) was a little awkward to get in because of the corner and the speed bumps, but not impossible. There is a pond with a fountain and a HUGE fireplace (not fire pit) for relaxing. We will definitely be back.
GuideTook my dog here for a long weekend excursion. I try not to go for lake based campsites because I don't fish, and I don't have a boat. I was pleasantly surprised at the breadth and quality of the activities in the park. The MTB and hiking trails are first rate, there's a paved walking path around the whole park, and there's a strong geocaching community based near there.
The walk from the parking lot to the campsite was not too long, but long enough to make the site feel more secluded. While I was there, I saw lots of deer - with some of them even wandering into my campsite.
I will say, that due to the size of the lake, the winds whipping off of it can be quite intense. Bring a windbreaker if you're going to hike there.
Guide
Well maintained. There is no drinking water here so you will need to bring some in.
ScoutGreat campground, electric and water. Only issue is the grass is always one high so bring a weed whip. We have family in the area, so we visit regularly and every time we stay here the grass is ridiculous otherwise I would give a 5 star!
Traveler
First, the good. The free wifi is pretty strong and the TV reception was excellent. Communication with the owners through email was promptly answered. We stayed a month and the electricity was decently priced. For the month in the Texas heat, our bill was about$75. It is a new park so all the utilities were functioning as they should.
The bad. To get there, you travel a rough dirt road that has had some oil put on it near the few houses that are there but that stops about halfway to the site. Otherwise, it is a dusty, rough road. It appeared that the campground doesn't have any sites that approach level. It is covered solidly with rocks, not gravel and some were quite large. A few of the campers had to have their back wheels off the ground in order to get level! The are no restrooms, showers, picnic tables or any other amenities, not even an office. The monthly is $550 for a"deluxe" site plus 3.5% processing fee when you pay with a credit card. The"deluxe" sites are the pull throughs and those that back up to the"pond", accessed by climbing up a steep incline. The pond appears to just be a stock tank. I've never stayed at a campground with sites as bad as this one and of course, I won't be back.
GuideOverall the lake and wooded areas are good for a day’s enjoyment however the facility is not maintained. The bath houses are completely neglected. The light in the ladies BH is flickering so badly it was disorientIng, one shower did not work at all, toilets have no “seat”, and it is overrun with bugs (more than the normal campground). The gate entrance attendant is rude and unhelpful. No sewer hook ups at site so “community” dumping is necessary. The community dump is run down too with broken equipment and bent connections. Finally, for the camp charges $10/car/day. We have a drivable RV and rented a car so not only did we pay for the site but then paid more to have our car. Not going to stay here again.
GuideOverall the lake and wooded areas are good for a day’s enjoyment however the facility is not maintained. Also the entire park is huge so things are not within walking distance so if you don’t have wheels you’ll have to unhook for hike a good long distance to amenities. The bath houses in Loop E are completely neglected. The light in the ladies BH is flickering so badly it was disorientIng, one shower did not work at all, toilets have no “seat”, and it is overrun with bugs (more than the normal campground). The gate entrance attendant is rude and unhelpful. No sewer hook ups at site (E loop) so “community” dumping is necessary.

We have a drivable RV and rented a car so not only did we pay for the site but then paid more to have our car. Not going to stay here again. After dealing with E loop for a couple days we requested to move to A loop. A loop was much better but we were charged $20/day for the “upgrade”. A loop bath house was definitely better but still unimpressive. Office staff was friendlier and helpful (not gate employee).
GuideThe only reason I’m giving this campground 4 stars is because: the grass was tall at the campsite, could have been maintained better, RV pads are asphalt and not very level, only one bathroom has showers. Overall, we had a lovely Memorial Day weekend at this campground. It’s close to town just in case you need to make a quick trip for something. This lake is great for boating. There was a nice swim area and overall the campground was clean and quiet. There weren’t a whole lot of trees and none over the RV pads, so keep that in mind as far as the sun beating down on the camper. I’d still recommend this campground to a friend.
TravelerI stayed at the Wild Plum (primitive) camping area with my son in early spring. The trail path to the campsites is further than indicated or implied on the website, which isn't a problem if you're packed light, but if you're car camping with heavy equipment you will be surprised how far it is. I was packed somewhat medium in gear and it was quite a trek to carry all of it with a young child who is basically worthless at lifting things.
If you're picking a site in this camp area, #117 is right off the trail and nearest to the community restrooms. I did not stay at this spot but did not that it has a great natural spot for a hammock. Sites 119-122 (maybe 123) are right on the lake so you can see ducks and do some bank fishing without needing to go anywhere.
Wildlife were very quiet and the stars were bright on a clear night. Sites are far enough away that you have to shout at your neighbors, so feel free to stretch out and be yourself without worrying about being too noisy (within reason). There's also a great little park near the boat ramp area. You can swim there, use pavilions for a large group, or fish out on a pier.
RangerWe camp in the Wild Plum (walk-in) area a lot when we don't want to travel far from home or want to test new gear. Campsites are roomy and level with convenient water access. Sunset is gorgeous from site 126. Feels very secluded in site 130-131, but those sites can be closed during rainy season due to flooding. Lots of hammocking trees. Plenty of wildlife to keep you company (hang your food bags on the hooks).
Lots of easy hiking and very kid-friendly.
LegendWhen we got to Benbrook, we used the campground(CG) website instructions as we didn’t see any signage for the CG on US377 coming in from the east. We turned right onto Pearl Ranch Rd and followed it to the Holiday COE entrance about 2 miles straight down the road. Check in was easy and the guy who checked us in was very informative. We needed to fill our freshwater tank and he pointed out on the map the two dump stations with potable water. We proceeded to the dump station just inside the gate to find out there was not a potable water spigot just the usual rinse hose. We went back to the entrance and he informed us the park ranger had told him they are on well water and thus the water at the dump station was safe, even though there was a sign clearly stating it was not safe to drink. We were then told we could go to an empty camp site that had water hook-ups and fill up there, which we did. Not sure what we would have done if this had been a busy weekend with all of the water sites full. We then proceeded to pull through site 72 with 30/50 AMP. There was plenty of space for our 39’ fifth wheel and F-450 on the asphalt pad. The site had a covered cement patio with picnic table, and bbq/fire pit that we couldn't use due to a burn ban. Site 73 was the only other site in our little cul-de-sac. For the intent of this review, we toured the campground specifically looking for free standing water spigots, but didn't find any. The showers/restroom were old but in workable shape. If you want to stay where we did in sites 72-75 they were definitely electric only, contrary to what other reviews mentioned. There were water spigots at the sites but they had been capped off. Sites 76, 77,& 78 were also electric only and sat up on a hill with a slight lake view but are across the street from a neighborhood that backs up to the park. Sites 83- 93 had water and electric as well as some of the sites near the front of the park. We got 3 bars on Verizon and a whole bunch of OTA channels. We enjoyed the view of the lake and privacy at our site since we were the only ones there the whole time of our stay during the week.
Ranger
Doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles but does have sewer, lake views, wide open spaces, and clean! Great food places nearby. Only drawbacks are I level sites and front gates don’t open til 10am every morning so can’t get back in if you go get breakfast.
Traveler
Stayed here for only a night, but it was so idyllic—definitely wish I could’ve stayed longer!
The site I stayed at wasn’t on the edge by the lake, but I was okay with that. I still had a great view of the water and sunset; I wasn’t wanting to swim or fish so I was happy where I was!
Lots of families and groups coming to camp here, but everyone seemed to have a shared respect for each other. I felt like I was at summer camp again.
The sites are so well manicured and like the other reviews stated, they’re cut in a way that gives you privacy. The sites are fairly close together but the grass makes it feel like you have your own little oasis.
Overall, it was well-organized, easy to contact the office, and a great experience.
Note: Most campsites have a lengthy walk-in distance so be prepared! Bring a cart; it’ll speed things up massively. And definitely bring a canopy or tarp; there isn’t much cover here. But at night, the temperature was quite comfortable, albeit windy.
GuideBeautiful park with views to the lake. Very clean showers, nice trails…very family friendly. Enjoyed our quick overnight.
ScoutA nice park with like new facilities, clean, and good location to area stores. No pool.
TravelerHad a great time here. Found our site and got setup quickly. All gravel pad and site. Aluminum picnic table.
Clean grounds, bathroom, showers. Firewood for sale.
