One the prettiest state parks we have had the pleasure of visiting. It is nestled back in a cove by the lake and far away from the hustle of the large and small cities and towns. Quiet, peaceful and beautiful.
GuideIt is a nice campground, but there were lots of gunshots in the area and the spots are pretty close together. It is nice that it has full hookups, but my dump is towards the front of my RV and the dump site was in the very back of my space
Guide
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.

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
Guide
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.

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.
Ranger5/5
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.
TravelerGreat 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.
Guide
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.
TravelerI 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 road in isn’t bad but it’s pretty dippy in some spots so if you have a large vehicle take it slow.
The directions take you to the Beach. Do not make the left turn. Camp spots are forward and to the right upon entry.
The spots are nice and spaced.
Only one other camper here when we arrived. They had tents. The spots are large enough to drive right into and it’s not to bumpy.
No bathrooms and the trash cans are all upside down and screwed to polls. So there is trash EVERYWHERE! In the lake, on the shore, on the roadways.
Other than the trash this place is absolutely breathtaking. We were on our way through so we only stayed for about 6 hours.
I imagine it’s the hot spot during the summer.
I would most definitely come back.

The photos that you can find online for this RV park or misleading. When they say they have showers plural, restrooms plural, and laundry room When in reality they have one restroom which was filthy, one shower that was so dirty you could not stand in it. In one washer and dryer.
ScoutThe 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.
ScoutMe 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.
ScoutSuch an unbelievable, majestic landscape that can truly only be seen in person to fully take in the beauty. Can’t wait to go back
GuideTo 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.
ScoutI'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.
Traveler
I’m an avid camper and hiker but when camping here alone at night (no one else was in the tent camping area), my camp site was accosted by a family of raccoons. They were not friendly and not scared of people at all. Be careful if you have young children. Aside from this, the lake was beautiful, peaceful and serene. Camp sites are unique and right on the water.

GuideNot 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.
TravelerAn 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.
Guide
We stayed at spot 18, it was a quick walk to the lake and had the most beautiful wooded view from the campsite. The dump station has 2 spots and very easy to use. The public restrooms were clean, comfortable, and conveniently located. We highly recommend this campsite!
Guide4 overnight sites are long enough but only 5-7 feet apart. FHU No picnic table, not very clean, small bathroom and showers. Mainly a permanent, rough rv village, nothing much to do at park. Overpriced at $40 per night. Noisy road nearby. Permanent residents have no respect for overnight site, they walk 2 feet from camper to a pond over and over. Last resort only if absolutely nothing else is available.
RangerWe stayed for a few days in the winter, it was quiet and beautiful at the lake. We didnt use the facilities but they look in great shape.
LegendProbably one of the most well kept State Parks we've been in... plus plenty of hiking to do while here.
Sites are not all that level but we are finding most State Parks are kinda "Lay of the Land" type sites.... have good leveling blocks handy!!!
The staff was very friendly and courteous.
If in area, we would stay here again.
