Treetops RV Resort accommodates pets at its landscaped grounds in Arlington, 20 minutes from Haltom City. Sites feature full hookups, shade trees, and level concrete pads with nearby walking paths for dog exercise. The on-site dog park provides a dedicated space for pets to run off-leash. Dallas/Arlington KOA Holiday also welcomes pets with a fenced dog area that campers report is clean and well-maintained. Cedar Hill State Park and Loyd Park permit pets throughout their camping areas with standard leash requirements. Most campgrounds enforce a maximum of two pets per site with breed restrictions varying by location. The bathrooms and shower facilities remain exceptionally clean despite the presence of pets.
Northlake Village RV Park provides a secluded, quiet environment for pets and their owners approximately 30 minutes north of Haltom City. The park enforces quiet hours to minimize barking disturbances while maintaining pet-friendly policies. During summer months, swimming areas at Meadowmere Park allow dogs access to shoreline areas but require leashes near camping areas. Most campgrounds provide waste stations throughout the grounds and require proof of current vaccinations at check-in. Local veterinary services are available in Arlington and Grand Prairie for emergency care. Wildlife considerations include keeping pets leashed to prevent encounters with local fauna, particularly during dawn and dusk hours when activity increases.
"The park at lakeside had recently flooded but we were not there to go to the water and our site was not effected at all."
"Larger rigs are more accomdated next to the lake. But call ahead to see which sites have 50 amp, you'll need it I summer time. Beach is great."

GuideNice park with water, electric hookups, and showers. Located right on the water. Spots are plenty large enough for multiple cars and there are two hiking trails. Solid spot for RVs and vans that want a beautiful lake view.
TravelerDisappointing 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.
ScoutWe were in town for three nights for a wedding, traveling from Southern California.
This was by far one of the best RV parks/resorts we have ever stayed at. It had every amenity you could ever ask for. Park was very quiet and spacious.
The owners were very gracious, and in fact offered us a ride to the wedding we were attending when Uber/Lyft became problematic. Fortunately, it worked out and we did not have to inconvenience them.
Would definitely stay here again if we are ever in town. Outstanding.
ScoutWe had a great time here. Lots of shade, privacy and great view of lake
GuideFolks want different things out of campsites. For me, it's scenic beauty, quiet for work and mental health, and nice places to take my dog. This checks all the boxes!
None of my reviews will be useful for amenities or activities because I just don't use them. I can't tell you about bathrooms, fishing, etc. I can tell you the water is very soft and feels slick or soapy even after you rinse. I have onboard reverse osmosis and wouldn't recommend drinking city water anywhere in Texas. There's too much oil production here and gas and chemicals are all over.
The staff at the gate were pleasant and said, "You must be David," when I pulled in, which was very nice and made it easy and welcoming.
Texas has many undiscovered and wonderful public lands, whether you're really camping or just working remote, watching the deer, or seeing the sunrise over a lake from your bedroom window. Get out here and come see them!
ScoutThis is a great campground. Power was good, att service is good and the grounds are very clean. The only downside is no full hookups and the dump station is outside of the gate which they lock at 10pm and don't open again until 10am. So no getting back in while locked and you can't dump except when there are lines.
TravelerAmazing staff. Good power and very clean. Several different site surfaces aka grass or paved or rock. Will be back.
ScoutLived here long term in a THOW, quiet, peaceful, good people. Park is coming a long way, affordable, easy, close to town, no complaints.
TravelerGreat roads. You hit some well maintained gravel coming into the campsite and the sites are pretty well spaced. Only note
Located just northeast of Fort Worth, Haltom City provides convenient access to numerous camping areas along major lakes and within managed forests. Campers enjoy temperatures that range from winter lows near 35°F to summer highs regularly exceeding 95°F. The region's terrain features a mix of post oak woodlands and prairie landscapes that influence the camping experience throughout the year.
Fishing opportunities: Cedar Hill State Park Campground offers excellent lake access for anglers. "Five Star Park located just minutes from Dallas Fort Worth. The Park is extremely clean. Campsites are all level and great for the Big Rigs," notes Debbie T. at Loyd Park.
Biking trails: Several campgrounds maintain dedicated cycling paths. "Great bike trails. Friendly staff and lovely sites, each pretty secluded from each other," reports Cactus A. about Loyd Park's system of routes suitable for both casual riders and more experienced cyclists.
Water recreation: Hickory Creek Park on Lewisville Lake provides shoreline swimming areas. "Did I forget to mention this campground is surrounded by water! There are many sites that you can stay at and have a lakeside campground (the water appears clean and our dog loved it!)," shared UnnamedAdventures at Hickory Creek - Lewisville Lake.
Wildlife viewing: Multiple parks offer opportunities to observe native Texas species. "We came across 5 different groups of them as I was driving around taking in the entire campground. Of course, where there are deer there are ticks. Make sure to use insect repellent and give yourself a check," advises James S. regarding Holiday Park.
Private, shaded sites: Campgrounds near Haltom City frequently provide tree cover for relief during hot months. "The park is designed with small loops for 15-20 camp sites in each loop. Very little traffic right by the individual spots. Easy in and out of park," notes Michael C. about Cedar Hill State Park Campground.
Clean facilities: Well-maintained bathhouses and common areas stand out in reviews. "Very clean and picturesque park, would come back for sure," reports Shawn E. about Cedar Hill State Park, while Karen B. adds that it has "a variety of campsites. Shaded areas available. Very clean."
Quiet atmosphere: Northlake Village RV Park provides a retreat from urban noise. "We stayed for a week while waiting for our house to close in late March of 2020. The office staff was taking Covid very serious as it was just being ramped up to Pandemic status. Our site was reasonably priced and we were very happy staying there," writes Bob M. about Northlake Village RV Park.
Family activities: Parks with organized events receive high ratings. "Lots of activities to keep the kids entertained! Kids and adults both enjoy candy bar bingo and dancing the night away to tunes by an energetic DJ!" says Nola M. about North Texas Jellystone.
Seasonal concerns: Summer temperatures routinely exceed 95°F, making shade critical. "We had a great time. It was really busy but that's okay, we still enjoyed it," notes Jessica S. about Cedar Hill State Park, while John B. advises about Loyd Park: "Some sites are 50 amp, while all are for 30 amp. Larger rigs are more accommodated next to the lake. But call ahead to see which sites have 50 amp, you'll need it in summer time."
Insect management: Several parks report significant insect activity. "Nice lake but there were fire ants and chiggers all over our campsite!" warns Jill C. about Cedar Hill State Park Campground, highlighting the need for proper repellent and regular checks.
Lake water levels: Seasonal fluctuations affect shoreline access. "Partially closed due to flooding," reported Mendy S. about Cedar Hill State Park, indicating visitors should check current conditions before arrival, especially after heavy rain periods.
Noise considerations: Proximity to urban areas means some noise infiltration. "The only downside is the overall air traffic that you hear and see over the park from the Dallas-Fort Worth airport(it's cool initially but after a few nights it does get old)," notes UnnamedAdventures about Hickory Creek.
Activity planning: Dog friendly campgrounds near Haltom City often feature scheduled events. "This is literally the best campground for families. There are tons of activities, games, crafts, pools, petting zoo, water park, and more. We love it here," shares Lauren Z. about North Texas Jellystone.
Beach access: Several lake-adjacent campgrounds maintain swimming areas. "Beach is great," notes John B. about Loyd Park, while TJ & Laura S. add, "Joe Pool lake is part of park. It's a big park, lots of good spaces... They have a big beach, park area to enjoy."
Pet accommodations: Many campgrounds welcome dogs with specific areas for exercise. "The park is very clean, having done lots of updates. All of the amenities you would want in a park, plus lots and lots of trees. Everything is clean. Nice pool, kids playground, exercise area, clean baths and great laundry," reports Troy about Treetops RV Resort.
Playground facilities: Most family-friendly campgrounds provide play equipment. "We hopped over for a one night trip and had a blast! Our site was right off the water with a fun view (at night) of the lake Lewisville bridge. Sites were large enough for us (tent campers) without feeling too close to our rv/camper neighbors! Our 5 & 4 year old boys loved running around, throwing rocks in the lake," shares Joshua M. about Hickory Creek.
Site selection: RV parks near Haltom City vary in site spaciousness. "Treetop is a great campground. We had the pleasure to stay there during a time to celebrate our friends life. The people that worked there were very friendly and always asked if there was anything they could do," writes LEIGH about Treetops RV Resort.
Hookup availability: Water and electric services differ between parks. "Sites feature full hookups, shade trees, and level concrete pads with nearby walking paths for dog exercise," notes a reviewer about Treetops RV Resort, while another mentions that "there are a few full hook ups and lots of RV sites with water and electricity" at Loyd Park.
Pad surfaces: Site quality impacts leveling requirements. "A lot of space between sites, well level and paved, family oriented, very quiet, beautiful lake and tree sites, lighted power supply post with all the amps available," reports Reynolds O. about Hickory Creek.
Arrival planning: Some parks require advance coordination for check-in. "After hours check in was very fast and easy. Lots of trees. Good place to stay in a big city," shares Kathy H. about Dallas/Arlington KOA Holiday.
