I've never seen anything so unique and beautiful as Caddo Lake!! Like being in a movie! The State Park campground is immaculate, staff and hosts are super friendly. Fishing, kayaking, canoeing, boat tours, walking/hiking trails, awesome! Nearby historical town of Jefferson was a quaint day trip or artists, shops and eateries. What a trip! Can't wait to revisit Caddo Lake and all its beauty!
Made a reservation via telephone for two days a month in advance, but was not given a site number.When we pulled up to the office there was a note with a telephone number to call, but no answer. I saw a gentleman walking around and it appeared he saw us. After waiting about 10 minutes, I decide to driver further into the park. The gentleman I saw earlier was one of the owners/ managers, I would would have expected him to go to the office to meet the newly arriving guests. I will say that he was friendly enough and later, his wife stopped by to collect the fee and she too was friendly. The park itself has full hook ups and is on the banks of the bayou. The campground require you to sign a waiver because of the water moccasins from the bayou and because of the potential of falling tree limbs. The. Campground is pretty sandy so leveling may be problematic for big rigs. The do allow long term guests to store all kinds of equipment and gear, the site next to us look like a junk yard. Our fellow campers seemed friendly enough with the gentleman on the other side from the junk yard introducing himself.
Once again our timing was great as this state park was only about 1/4 full. Sites were level and as with most SP's, plenty of room. Nice wooded park, lots of deer and a nice island to hike on. Power plant isn't all that bad, but then again we weren't right on the water where you would be able to hear it more. Nice facilities.
If u want a true rustic feel, this is it. The host was more than willing to answer any questions and was very responsive. Allowed us to cut little trees down to use for firewood. The little creek is nice to listen to in the evening. Just down the road to the boat ramp
We drove from NWArkansas the end of January to purchase a conversion van in Tyler, but towed our 19-foot Coleman camper just in case the van didn't work out, at least we'd have a nice camping trip! We stayed in a pull-though space (#340) which was large enough for our Tundra, the Coleman, AND our newly acquired 2000 E-350 Sportsmobile Van.
The campsites were quiet (except for our dogs, who loved the racoons and deer...sorry!!) and well maintained. Beautiful walk around the lake to watch the sunrise. The facilities are standard state park facilities...everything worked. One toilet was a mess, but that wasn't the rangers' fault. One would think women would be more mindful of the mess they make.
Note that the gift shop isn't open on Tuesday/Wednesdays, so if you want a head badge for your walking stick, you can purchase one at the ranger station CASH ONLY. Highly recommend this park.

No privacy from any other campsite
Site picnic table anchored so not moveable
Went right after Memorial Day weekend and basically had the campground to ourselves. Campsite 64 had a large flat surface to accommodate a six person tent (North Face Wawona 6) with a vestibule. Great place for a weekend getaway from the DFW area ~3 hr drive). Overall the park has nice amenities, easy hikes, and great canoeing-kayaking!
We had no choice but to stay for 2 months due to unfortunate events, but this place will make sure that you are treated like you are below them. We were always told to follow the rules, but the rules seemed to only being getting longer and stricter everyday, but the weekenders and the live in free workers didn't have to follow, we paid resort prices for no resort accommodations, what was "included" in the price wasn't included for us because we paid monthly not daily, (it's cheaper and it was literally 700$ a month so not much cheaper) the camp site for us was ran down and had prior campers trash left over that we had to take care of because it was "your responsibility" as the nice lady stated in the store front of the campground....I don't have kids in diapers, and I had to clean up over a dozen of poop filled diapers from our campsite, my youngest is 9...but as the leady said it was my responsibility to clean my campsite up upon arrival...then they tried to fine me for it...and the broken picnic table, that's bit the worse part, the worse part was the live in workers freely went threw our outdoor stuff (we have portable garden beds with veggie and fruits) by the time they freely helped themselves without my permission I had to restart my garden...I'm poor and lost everything so I'm literally starting all over again...I took out a large loan to get a type of hike for my son and I just to be treated like dog poop on the bottom of ya boot....when I brought it uo to them and started to complain about the chaos and rudeness I was told to "ignore it won't happen again" until it did...this time a weekender thought it would be adorable to throw rocks at my kid and dog...I will never go back.
Very well kept, great park staff, excellent boat ramp and pier. Could use more camping spots especially for tent campers.
5/5
Newer campground that is very well laid out and well kept. Tall tree limb canopy helps with a nice breeze and fewer bugs. This is on a bayou so be prepared for mosquitoes. Great paddling trails and about100 yards from Big Cypress Bayou connected by a boat trail. Nice shower / restroom close to the tent area.
Leslie and Pat are fantastic hosts and go out of their way to make you feel at home. Ask about their buffalo ranch.
This is a delightful park on the west side of Shreveport. There’s an adorable playground and fabulous pool. Tables with chairs on many sites. Benches, landscaping, grass and shade trees. Clean bathrooms with 3 showers. Road noise might be a distraction for the sites at the entrance area of the park.
Great spot in the Piney woods of East Texas. Minutes from Tyler State park. Perfect spot for large families or groups. Amenities are not fully finished till summer, but there will be a great number of improvements such as water park, warming tub and restaurant.
Our site was large with a pull thru concrete pad right on the water. The sites are large and separated separated by trees and private. There is a fire ring with grill grate provided.
I brought my dog on a two night weekend stay and we had a blast. The campsite was well maintained and we loved all of the trails.
The park has many hiking trails. The tent sites are close together so there is not much room for privacy. Many racoons. Park facilities are clean, nice swimming area and good roads.
Me and my husband had a great time and experience at the DF state park! Bathrooms were clean, the park was in great shape, and the trails were great to walk through and enjoy the scenery.
Such an unbelievable, majestic landscape that can truly only be seen in person to fully take in the beauty. Can’t wait to go back
To celebrate September birthdays, we took advantage of the king holiday weekend to visit Jellystone. We’ve been here a couple of times before, but in the winter months. It was great to take advantage of the water amenities available! My kids loved the splash pad/water slides (I did too!). The bouncy pillow is always a fan favorite, and we spent just as much time there as we did in the water. Great evening movies, lots of fun activities, and close to Tyler if you decide to venture out and get some good food, or find something to do!
Our site was very shady, and our ac had no issue keeping up with the temps. Our particular site was a pie shape. We had visitors Saturday, and there were some parking blues because of how narrow the site was. We only chose this site because it was all that was available when booking. We prefer to be closer to all the fun! But overall we were happy with the location.
I've camper at Tyler State Park many times in my life. This is the first time in an RV. Rangers were nice & helpful. The facility is well organized & well maintained. They are constructing a a new headquarters in the pines near Cedar Point but the crews were considerate and no bother to us. No noise problems or traffic issues. The camping is limited in the Tyler area but this place is a jewel. Nice lake for fishing but few campsites near the water. Bathrooms were close & clean. Our campsite shaded our RV. No solar but there is an open area for starlink. No cell service from Verizon.

Good-beautiful grounds with a fishing pond. Large, flat spots. Bad-Very loud and very close train nearby. Ants everywhere. Also, I booked a pond front spot and was so excited but when I came they said I couldn't have it because someone decided to stay longer. Also, this area smells really bad. Some of these, not the parks fault..
Not a fan of the site just due to the raccoons. Did a shakedown run of a new RTT after having appointments in the general area - the location is nice, but lots of road noise from the freeway. The worst part was a family of raccoons kept coming up for food all night. It was hard to sleep with them in the (empty) bed of the truck all night playing around.
Camped at site #63 in the Mill Pond Camping Area - tent area. This site backed up onto Saw Mill Pond - beautiful cypress swamp. Bugs were not too bad. Gravel drive on site. Level tent pad. Water only; no electric. Clean fire ring. Lantern post. Large site, good separation from other sites. Campground is heavily wooded, lots of shade. Campground is clean & nicely maintained. One restroom is at the entrance to the Mill Pond camping area, just off of a day use parking lot. No shower in this restroom. A newer, nicer restroom/shower house is located in the Woodpecker camping area. Quiet campground; no issues. Good AT&T service. Despite saying it's allowed in the campground features list, alcohol is prohibited. Excellent T-Mobile 5G service.
An absolutely beautiful setting. This is a quiet, quaint park with the most beautiful views. I hosted a kayak camp out with 23 ladies to go kayaking. There is a kayak rental right next door which is a very short paddle to the camp. There’s a small boat ramp at the park so putting in is easy. There’s 3 trails close to the park. Trails took 1 -2 hours depending on which one you take and how fast you paddle. There’s a shower house with 1 shower, sink and toilet, very clean and plenty of room with a bench. The park is well kept and clean. There is a fire ring at each camp site and full hook ups. There is a HUGE public fire pit that is wonderful to gather with larger groups. The owners Pat and Leslie live on the grounds and are wonderful and available for any questions. This is a rather new park and is hidden gem at Caddo and well worth the stay.
Tucked away from the highway is this sweet little KOA with all the amenities. There are rv and tents sites plus cabins, a pool, showers, laundry. You are surrounded by forest, so it feels like "camp". This would be a nice place to locate when exploring Shreveport attractions.
I’ve been here twice and really enjoy it! AT&T service is pretty good here too. It’s only 20 min from Jefferson which is a must do. Go eat at Big Pines Lodge and check out Uncertain flea market 1st and 3rd weekend while you’re there ❤️
