"Good little park off the beaten path. You can camp with water views. Flush toilets with running water, but those mosquitoes will eat you alive."
"We love the trails and rugged wildlife of the park... Watch out for the gators and put your food up or it will be gone. This is a good place for wildlife and a peaceful stay..."
"Trails: There were a few trails in the park, none of which were all that long. The main Trinity Trace Trail was flat dirt, good for young bikers."
"We arrived on Memorial Day for four nights with reservations made 54 days prior."

"Some fairly recent upgrades to the bathrooms and showers have made it much nicer! We’ve always had a good time here and made lots of happy memories! Staff is very friendly."
"The staff were friendly and helpful. The pro and the restroom were clean. My kids loved the park and the island that was in the middle of the lake. Kayaked, hiked and fished."
"Lots of shade and a nice little shallow cove to cool off in the lake."
ScoutThe campsites have a lot of space & are surrounded by woods. The concrete sites are level and offset from the next site (one on one side of loop, next site on other side of loop), which allows for more space & privacy (stayed in #006). I had full hookups (water, electric & sewer) at $25/night (Disabled Vet rate). It was very peaceful & quiet, except for some work that needed to be done nearby.
GuideI'd never heard of the Trinity River Authority before. It's not a name that jumps out when one thinks of camping. But in Texas, perhaps it should be. The private company built dams and reservoirs all over the state and funds their operations through water sales and permit use.
Lake Livingston is one such project, the 3rd largest lake in Texas and the largest one constructed for drinking water. The company is clearly very serious about maintaining beautiful and professionally run grounds. The sites are generally well-monitored, spaced nicely, and situated with great water views if you choose one in that area (see my map photo). The park does not allow day use in camping areas nor day entry at all on weekends, keeping the entire park reserved for paid RV guests.
I grew up around Lake Grapevine, another TRA project though I didn't know it as a kid. But I've never woken up to find a sunrise over a lake right outside my bedroom window. That's pretty special.
Like another reviewer mentioned, I did see a dog running loose and investigating people's campgrounds.
If you're in Texas and want peace, quiet, total darkness (there are no lights of any kind in the camping area), and lower temps than Houston, come check out Wolf Creek Park.
ScoutI do not recommend staying here. I was bothered by park manager repeatedly. When I stayed here manager was nosy. He only cares about his reputation and how his park looks, he does not like kids and sent out messages to the people staying here recommending them to call Child Protective services if they see any kids playing outside. Bathrooms were frequently dirty, especially on Saturday and Sunday. I am never staying here again. I stayed with my wife and four children. This park is NOT family friendly. We would get mass text messages detailing various different authorities to call to complain about things as simple as children playing outside. The policing by the manager and Clear Lake Shores/Kemah was very excessive. Police would stop at people's homes at midnight to ask for directions to calls where guests should not be bothered by police absent involvement in the call. I saw this happen multiple times. A friend of mine who used to stay out in the park alleged she was assaulted and reported it and retaliation/harassment twice. The manager did not want to assist her by making the man leave or provide video evidence to have the man prosecuted for making it appear he was going to ram her ebike coming up the driveway. There is a convicted sex offender in the park. There were recently criminals staying in the cabins on and off as they do not do background checks. I do not reside in the park anymore. Lee is only concerned about maintaining a resort-style image and his own reputation and ignored significant guest safety concerns, allowing people to be touched against their will and harassed with slurs and name calling. Someone should not be called a B or F by another guest and then that harassment is ignored by management. Management should be addressing those situations. They need to address the steel rebar and unsafe wood hand railing on the docks before some gets seriously injured by the metal rods sticking out of the shore line. A child is going to fall off that pier and there will be a lawsuit to follow if that happens. One guests was even firing a projectile weapon out of his cabin door. The person later disappeared. I observed it when I was taking trash out. The park is not lgbtq friendly. If you take concerns about someone calling you by homophobic slurs to the park manager, the park manager will not get involved or assist you in preventing further anti-gay or lesbian insults being spoken against you by other ill spirited guests. I saw this happen to someone. It was mostly Republicans and rich people passing through. Edit: after I left the manager asked another guest that is staying there where I live. The manager appears to be trying to get at me personally since I have left 2 reviews for his park staying my experience.
RangerPark is decent but roads are not the best shape. Bathrooms are sketchy but doable. Expect people to be driving around park and launching boats well into the night. Dogs are not kept on leash like the rules say and some just roam at will. No fire rings and no covered tables. The Marina restaurant has very good hamburgers and a laundromat. Lots of places to fish from the shore.
ScoutExcellent campground. Clean, manicured, on Lake Livingston. Site 50 is the best in the park.
RangerVery well kept facilities, nice, level sites. Very family friendly environment - I think because they do not allow day visitors on weekends. Everyone I encountered with the park were nothing but professional and super friendly. Trash pickup from the curb was an added bonus. Can’t wait to go back!
GuideGetting to the park can be difficult if you are arriving after the sun goes down. Once you get off the interstate there is construction going on, there was an exit sign that was not an exit at all. I was very lucky that I did not crash! Texas State Parks charge an entrance fee even when you are camping. However, the do offer several Park Passes that are FREE or a small charge for Seniors, Disabled persons, Veterans and Gold Star Family members. I now have a lifetime pass as a Disabled Veteran and they refunded the entrance fee that I paid when I made the reservation.
The campground is not big but all sites have water and electric with a dump station. Some of the sites are elevated so if you are tent camping you have to haul up your stuff. The site I had needed more that the 50' electric cord that I usually use. Luckly I had another cord so I could get electric to tent. Had to use bungee cords and duck tape to stake the tent cement under the gravel again. The bathhouse is clean and has hot showers. There are alot of water activities nice hiking trails.
LegendWe spent two nights here. The campground is a nice campground, but I feel the spaces are pretty close together for a state park. No trees or privacy between several of them. Our space #12 was level. Park did have a nice shower house as well as some nice hiking trails and the staff was extremely courteous.
RangerLove staying at Livingston. It is close enough to Houston that we can have a quick get away, but still be away from things that you can enjoy. The park is very well maintained, and the trails are good. A lot of people fish the lake, but I haven’t had a lot of luck - that doesn’t mean anything, though 🤣
