Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Iowa Park, TX
Wichita Falls RV Park features a dedicated dog park considered the best amenity by visitors, with level sites and full hookups for campers traveling with pets. All sites include water and electric connections with spacious pads and concrete picnic table areas. The grounds are well-maintained with mature trees providing shade at many sites. The park maintains a clean, pet-friendly environment with a pond and bridge that children and dogs enjoy exploring. Pets must remain leashed when outside designated pet areas, and waste stations are available throughout the grounds. Burkburnett-Wichita Falls KOA accepts pets at all accommodation types including cabins, with pull-through sites easily accommodating RVs.
Dogs can enjoy the walking trails connecting Wichita Bend RV Park to the adjacent park area with waterfall via a pedestrian bridge. The $17 nightly fee at this pet-friendly location includes water and electric hookups with both 30 and 50 amp service available. Lake Arrowhead State Park Campground allows pets at tent and RV sites but visitors should be aware of limited shade during summer months when temperatures can affect pets. Mosquitoes can be thick at certain times of year, particularly at the Burkburnett-Wichita Falls KOA, so bringing pet-safe insect repellent is advisable. Several campgrounds in the area enforce a maximum 72-hour stay policy for overnight visitors, allowing just enough time to explore local pet-friendly hiking trails.

Nice stop off, near interstate
A nice KOA right off I-44. Its far enough from the highway to not be bothered by the noise. Nice and grassy and large trees around the campground just not near the RV spots. Nice salt water pool and a little store with sundries. The cabins look very nice as well. It appears they are expanding and adding new sites and renovating as well. Playground for the kids and dog park for your pup. Expect to pay about $45 a night for an RV site. You can save 10% with your KOA membership.

Nice RV Park
Quiet and peaceful RV Park. The ladies at the office were very helpful and friendly. They are pet friendly with a nice dog walk area. The restrooms are spacious, clean, and have large residential style showers. We couldn’t have asked for more for our weekend visit during my daughter’s softball tournament.
Rachel H.GuideRocking A RV Park
Clean and basic no frills park
This RV park is right off the main thoroughfare, next to the local Walmart. There is even a path to the Walmart parking lot at the edge of the park.
Wifi was down for our one night visit, due to severe weather that knocked out a wire/cable in town.
Sites are mostly grass. We got a pull through for our visit. Sites are a mix of long-term stays and overnight stays. Our picnic table was apparently a shared resource, as it was used by the site next door residents in front of our RV.
There is a small pool, but we did not use it. There is also a playground on site and a pet area.

Quiet and relaxing
I love coming here. So beautiful. Never busy a great place to take the dog and just go for a walk or take your ATV and just go off roading or just go for a swim. Trust me you'll enjoy it
Lawrence Robert T.GuideRocking A RV Park
Nice family owned place
This place was conveniently located with shopping and restaurants in walking distance but far enough from the road to avoid traffic noise. Owners were very sweet and efficient. Park itself is basic with few trees. Mostly grass and gravel at the site. Pool, horseshoes, playground and dog area, as well as a well stocked inventory of RV supplies. They had propane and even came to our site to pick up . Bathhouse was older but clean. Nearby Italian restaurant was awesome and inexpensive.

KOA in need of a little a little TLC
For improved campground I have always found KOA to maintain a certain level of consistency so when I went on a fun trip with some friends to check out the “rumored Texas Chainsaw Massacre” community just north of Wichita Falls we wanted to check out the KOA there. Now while you are reading this and probably thinking, “WHY WOULD YOU GO THERE??” Keep in mind it is the rumored house and there is no factual proof that it actually is there, instead we found some really interesting other creepy things to go check out, because why not.
Anyway, back to the campground itself.
I was very impressed with the green space, a lot of this area was already starting to brown because of the heat, but they were still looking fresh and soft and that would make for a much better location for our tent. The site itself was just under $30, one of three options they offer which are all only about $4 in difference in pricing. We sprung for the middle option with electrical hook ups, not because we needed them but because after driving around we liked the look of that site a bit more. The deluxe sites they offered were taken but they had bbq grills and a more private tent area, this has been my favorite at several other KOA locations because of the amenities however this again was taken so that wasn’t an option.
We settled in and noticed that there were very nice amenities, the pool was amazing and perfect for a cool down on the warm day. KOA usually has this kind of amenity available as well as some outdoor activities you can enjoy like playground or sports courts. We were told they do observe quiet hours however if we wanted to swim a bit later as long as we were not loud we could do so. I would ask if this is ok before just getting out there and doing it however!!
The shower area was very close to the tent space we had selected and as often is at a KOA, one of my favorite features because they are more home like than a typical National or State Park campground. The water was warm and the pressure was very good!!
I noticed there were several what looked to be long term campers there in RVs. While I personally am not effected by this, it did make the area they were staying in a little less kept looking. They were not over by the cabins and tents however so it wasn’t that off-putting to me, but I could see how if that is an RV stayers view it could be kind of annoying.
I used the WIFI here and it worked great, sometimes the campsites are a bit to far away and thus don’t get good connection, however I was able to use wifi for typical functions, although I did not fully test it with uploading anything major.
TIPS
If you are interested in a Deluxe site book in advance there are very few and they go fast during heavy traffic seasons. Usually at this campsite there are tent sites which are walk in ready however.
Explore around the campground because they have some very interesting items if you are willing to just walk around and see them which are unique to this campground.
- Be careful for stickers. While the area we were in didn’t seem to have them we did notice when walking around especially near the dog walk area they seemed to be pretty bad.

Wichita Bend RV Park
Unexpected oasis
We happened upon this lovely, and convenient park during an emergency situation with our vehicle. This park is so nice, yes, it is near a freeway but step out your door and over to the park - WOW, who knew Wichita Falls was so pretty? We didn’t. We were stranded for two days (weekend) but this park made the delay completely enjoyable.

Lake Arrowhead State Park Campground
Nice quiet park
Water Electric , dump station close by, all rv sites seem to have a picnic table with an awning. Lake is close by, but we could feel a breeze most nights. Slept with windows open, to the sound of a pump jack running, read up about it, very interesting. Bathroom is dated but clean and functional, it's a state park, that is all I want. Nearby is Wichita Falls, we walked to the Falls, decent sized western city with choices for food and shopping. We would stop again.
Guide to Iowa Park
Camping sites near Iowa Park, Texas offer convenient access to several recreational lakes and state parks within a 30-mile radius. The terrain features rolling prairie with elevations ranging from 900-1100 feet, creating mild variations in the landscape. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 100°F from June through August, making spring and fall the most comfortable seasons for tent camping.
What to do
Hike mowed prairie trails: Lake Arrowhead State Park Campground offers flat, grassy trails that connect with their disc golf course system. According to Kerri S., "Hiking is probably not a real description of this. Walking on grass trails that are flat and mowed is more like it. They have a very nice disc golf course and the 'trails' are part of that system."
Watch prairie dog colonies: The park is home to active wildlife viewing opportunities. Ana A. notes, "The park is very clean, they have primitive, water + electric and just water campsites. Each site has a fire ring and a covered picnic table... This park is known for the prairie dog colonies which are fun to watch!"
Bridge exploration: Wichita Bend RV Park connects to adjacent park areas via walking paths. Sallie H. shares, "Step out your door and over to the park - WOW, who knew Wichita Falls was so pretty? We didn't. We were stranded for two days (weekend) but this park made the delay completely enjoyable."
Kid-friendly activities: Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Camp-Resort offers numerous structured activities. Brittany J. reports, "This park has a lot to offer. Multiple pools (including a nice splash pad type area for the little kids), jumping pillows, maze, nice playground, animals, blow up obstacle course, and scheduled activities like hayrides, bubbles, candy bingo, etc."
What campers like
Level concrete pads: Most RV parks in the area feature well-maintained sites. At Wichita Falls RV Park, Jan S. found, "We were in back-in site 20, which was level, shaded and plenty wide and long enough for our 35' MH and tow car. The pads are gravel with a paved pad for picnic table. There are a lot of pull through sites that are plenty long for big rigs and not tight together."
Pond and waterway access: Several parks feature water features that enhance the camping experience. Jan S. notes, "The park is on the Wichita River, has lots of ducks and geese that like the pond there and there are lots of kitschy things around the park. They have a pool, laundry and bathhouses- all clean."
Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention the cleanliness of area campgrounds. At Rocking A RV Park, Amy C. shares, "Very clean park. Danielle showed us to our spot and was very helpful answering questions we had."
Proximity to supplies: Several campgrounds offer easy access to shopping. Rafael N. comments about Rocking A RV Park, "Would definitely recommend if you are in the area. Big rig friendly, we have a 39ft 5th wheel and 2 vehicles. Sites fit us without issues."
What you should know
Limited shade: Many campgrounds in the area offer minimal shade coverage. Jeanne B. notes about Lake Arrowhead State Park, "Pros: easy access from state hwy. Restrooms were very clean. This park has made pull through sites for big rigs. Very quiet and no artificial lights, great place to star gaze... Cons: some of the sites need added gravel or black top."
Seasonal insect concerns: Mosquitoes can be prevalent at certain times of year. Stephen K. warns about Burkburnett-Wichita Falls KOA: "Be warned that mosquitoes were pretty thick when we visited."
Maximum stay limits: Several campgrounds enforce short-term limitations. Elaine F. explains about Wichita Bend RV Park, "There is a max stay of 72 hours @ $17 a night. Sites have water and electricity. There is also a dump station. There are NO bathrooms or showers."
Traffic noise: Parks near highways experience road noise. Elaine F. cautions, "Due to it being right off I44, there is road noise."
Tips for camping with families
Bring insect repellent: Mosquitoes can be heavy at certain times of year. Brittany J. recommends focusing on off-peak times at Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park: "We think the camping price is very reasonable for all of the included activities and we enjoy coming here a couple times a year."
Check pool hours: Many campgrounds maintain seasonal pool availability. JJ V. shares about Wichita Falls RV Park, "We stayed here in June. The grounds were beautiful, there were mature trees. Bathrooms and swimming pool very clean, and the pond and bridge were a joy for our kids, as well as the geese that were stopping there."
Consider pet-friendly trails: For families with four-legged members, look for parks with designated pet areas. Edward C. comments, "They are pet friendly with a nice dog walk area. The restrooms are spacious, clean, and have large residential style showers."
Check local burn restrictions: Fire rings aren't universal at all sites. Jarrid R. notes about Lake Arrowhead, "Picnic table shelters have been rebuilt at some point. The roof for most was recycled back onto the shelter. So, when it rains the roofs leak. Making it a challenge to cook and eat."
Tips from RVers
Pay attention to hookup options: RV sites offer varying levels of service. Gordon D. reports about Wichita Falls RV Park, "Full hook ups. Friendly staff. Roads were paved it a little run down. Crushed stone pads were flat and easy to stabilize. Also good for keeping the dirt out. Cement area with picnic table was at every site."
Easily accessible dump stations: Many parks offer sanitary dump facilities. Shalise J. mentions about pet-friendly camping at Wichita Bend RV Park, "Only $17 a night for water and 30 amp hookups. No internet, and close to the highway so expect traffic noise. Verizon has decent coverage."
Use honor system payment: Some smaller parks operate with self-service payment systems. Ron R. explains, "There is water and 30a electric at every site I believe some sites have 50 amps as well. There is a 72-hour limit. It's right next to the highway so there is road noise. Sites are level water pressure is good and electric is pretty stable."
