Several RV parks serve the Palo Pinto area with varying amenities and site configurations. Lake Palo Pinto RV Park provides 55 sites with full hookups including 30/50-amp electric connections, water, and sewer. Coffee Creek RV Resort & Cabins in Santo operates year-round with pull-through sites accommodating large rigs and offering 50-amp service. "We did social distancing this weekend, and this park was awesome! Full hook ups and clean areas to camp!" Great Escapes RV Resort North Texas in Perrin maintains 158 sites with full hookups and accommodates big rigs across their property.

Between Interstate 20 and the lakes to the north, most RV parks in the region maintain year-round accessibility with paved interior roads. Possum Kingdom RV Resort and Marina provides 82 lakeside sites with 30/50-amp electric service, though one visitor noted that "lots of longterm people working in the area, but still lots of open spots." Many parks offer WiFi, though signal quality varies significantly throughout the region. Most facilities welcome pets, provide on-site dump stations, and maintain shower facilities with varying degrees of modernity. During summer months, particularly from Memorial Day through Labor Day, advance reservations are strongly recommended as lakeside sites fill quickly with weekend travelers from the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

GuideEvery site is pull through with full hookups and has a fire ring & picnic table! Staff was very friendly and store had all the essentials. Clean restroom and shower (1 stall), pet friendly and beautiful pool/ hot tub. Right across the street from Dinosaur World (which our 2 year old loved) and outside the gates of Dinosaur Valley State Park. Will definitely be back.
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.
LegendAs far as Thousand Trails this is an average park. There are some full hook up sites but many are partial hookups. You pick your own site which is nice but most of the full hook up sites are occupied by long term residents or annual site holders. The view of the lake is beautiful and the park is quiet. They do have a lot of amenities.
Sites: most were level, grass or gravel. Some have a view of the lake. I sprained my knee and ankle at this park because our site was so unlevel and the mud sunk our jacks a little. Our rig weighs 16,000lbs so the Class As should be careful. The ground was soft and I came out of the RV without thinking and twisted both. Medical services are within a half hour of the RV Park.
Each site had picnic tables and fire rings.
Cellular: we were able to work and stream video easily with T-Mobile and AT&T.
Amenities: Club House Shuffle Board Pool Hot Tub (closed while we were there) RV Storage Mini Golf Hiking Trails Laundry Bath House Playground Fishing WiFi
TravelerGreat for the family! Has 80 ft pull through with full hookup. Five cabins. Two swimming pools and hot tub. River and state park access. Nice store and friendly staff. Bathhouse, dog park, playground. Weekend activities like movie night, s’mores, hay rides, and petting zoo. Very clean.
ScoutMy husband and I stayed at Dinosaur Valley RV Park (DVRVP) on two separate occasions in last four weeks. We stayed 1 night during our first time at DVRVP and 2 nights during our second stay.
Here are our pros: 1.) DVRVP shares a property line with DVSP. Guests are able to purchase a day pass online through the DVSP website and access DVSP without ever having to drive through the front entrance. It was a simple 1 minute walk to access the park through DVRVP.
2.) You do not have to enter DVSP to enjoy the Paluxy River. Guests of DVRVP can access the river by following a small trail at one corner of the park by the entrance of DVSP. Our family spent a whole day in the river a minute walk from our camper.
3.) Dinosaur World is across the street.
4.) DVRVP is a family owned and operated business. The service was friendly! We wanted to add a. Additional day. We called and left a message. Moments later we received a return phone call. We were placed on a wait list. A few hours later we received another phone call let us know they were able to add an additional day to our visit.
5.) The sites are pull in and leveled for the most part. Both sites we stayed at were clean, free of trash and pet waste. The fire pits had been cleaned out. Connections are conveniently placed on driver side and we’re cleaned.
6.) DVRVP staff hosts several family friendly activities for guests throughout the day, everyday.
7.) DVRVP has a playground, swimming pool, hot tub, fire pit and plenty of green space for kids to roam and explore.
8.) Pet Friendly!
9.) No RV age restrictions! We saw old to new class A’s to C’s and towable’s.
Here are our cons:
1.) 2 pet limit per site. We would love to bring all three of our dogs. One is tiny and is an incident dog.
ScoutGood place for full time campers or people with kids. Has decent playground for the kids and a pool. They are family friendly. Staff is friendly. Easy access to rivers. Nice walking area. Camping itself is right next to other campers, no trees and only some spots back up to the river.
GuideStaff very friendly and helpful. Nice little pool. Several small fenced dog parks. Well kept grounds. Nice pull through concrete pads that are level.
RangerWe needed a last minute place to stay, and the lady who answered the phone was super nice. She gave us a fantastic pull-through spot with full hookups (30 and 50 amp) for a price that was the best we have ever seen. The trees 🌲 really do make this environment feel mountainous. It was a nice surprise for Texas. The campgrounds are really pleasant and the park has fantastic access to the highway.
LegendLots of families enjoying the nice weather the weekend we were there. Cabins looked fine from the outside.

"If you have horses this is the place for you if you are transiting through North Central Texas. Nice sites with full hookups. Pastoral setting. Smells like sweet country air. Sites all appear level and are quite long, I assume for those who are hauling their horses," notes Sallie H.
Peaceful lake views: Many campsites in the region feature water views with varying degrees of shoreline access. "The sites at the bord of the Lake are to be preferred to fully enjoy the place. Cormorans, ducks, geese, herons amazed us," shares Pierre-Alain G. at Lake Palo Pinto RV Park.

Very accommodating," describes Cathy B. about her experience at Great Escapes RV Resort North Texas.
Winter weather considerations: Winter camping requires preparation as temperatures can drop significantly. "I came in on a Monday after making my online reservations for several days in early January. Rain and snow was predicted. The ground looked solid, but certainly could use some more gravel and leveling," reports Butch K. from Lake Palo Pinto RV Park.
Traffic noise levels: Some campgrounds are situated near major roadways. "Normally I do not mind a little traffic noise but there is a lot at this campground since it is right off of the freeway. I will say that since we were at the front of the park there was not a lot to block the noise," explains Eli D. from Oak Creek RV Park.
Cell service variability: Connectivity varies by location and carrier. "Cellular: we were able to work and stream video easily with T-Mobile and AT&T," mentions Laura H. about Tired Traveler RV Park, while other campgrounds may have limited service.

Cabin alternatives: For families without RVs, cabin options exist at multiple parks. "There are some really nice cabins available for rent. We didn't look inside of them but they seem like they would be nice," notes James S. about Coffee Creek RV Resort & Cabins.
Site leveling challenges: Uneven terrain can affect larger rigs. "I sprained my knee and ankle at this park because our site was so unlevel and the mud sunk our jacks a little. Our rig weighs 16,000lbs so the Class As should be careful," cautions Laura H. about Thousand Trails Bay Landing.
Reservation recommendations: Booking processes vary between parks. "If you do decide to book here, make sure you call to reserve. The online method over charges for some reason, so it's best to call the office," advises Tyler & Stephanie C. about Tired Traveler RV Park.

"If you select a 50A site, they charge you an additional $3 for that whether you use it or not," notes William about Thousand Trails Bay Landing, an important consideration for RV campsites in the Palo Pinto region.
