  Crosbyton City RV Park

  Not bad but noisy

  Lots of traffic and a rickety weather vane also adds to it.

  Honey Flat Camping Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  First visit

  Clean, quiet, cozy. Stayed 5 nights. You can hear owls and coyotes at night. A great hiking/mountain biking park. Buffaloes are easy to find in the park. There is a prairie dog town close to the camping area. I have knee trouble, and my wife uses a power chair. We still loved our stay.

  Crosbyton City RV Park

  A place to lay over.

  I may have just used that title, but I liked the spot. I stayed there two nights. The parking lot has sites with individual, free water, electricity, and sewer. The town is odd based on my experience. It is small and getting smaller and there is almost no morning activity. But it is interesting. Clearly agriculture and wind energy dominate the economy. I guess everyone is out in the field during the day. There is a hamburger stand in town, which is unremarkable, but not disappointing.

  I enjoyed photographing the town with it's midwestern farm town look and century old buildings.

  Absolut no problems with the site or the town. I enjoyed driving around the surrounding landscape for a couple of days.

  Great stay

  Water, electric, sewer and level site for only a donation. 16 TV stations came in too. The pool is open and they have a refreshment center. I've paid $100 a night for a spot as good as this.

  Little Red Tent Camping Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  A Fantastic, Silent Camping Experience

  This place is wonderful. I came here some years ago with my father, and had to venture out and see it again. Nothing has changed, and that's a great thing. The park was virtually empty in early February, I saw a grand total of five people over my three days here. There were many bison, prarie dogs, and stars. There are loops with full hookups, but most of the primitive tent sites are walk-in, though not far from the parking areas, and all with fantastic views of the canyons & Caprock Escarpment. This park is a hikers dream! Many trails to fuel your desires. 

  The racoons will get your trash/food if they are able to get to it, even if you are in your campsite. They do not care.

  State Park: Where the Buffalo Roam

  We were able to find an opening for 1 night at the honey flat campground, and enjoyed the solitude, scenery and wild life. Had 30 Amp hookup with water. Dumpstation and bath facilities. The sites were good size with fire rings and shaded picnic tables. Need to be aware of texas wild life. Many hiking trails and staff at the information center were nice and helpful. Need to plan trip far in advance as sites fill up quick if you plan on staying for awhile.

  Nice for a quick stop through

  We only stayed one night while on our way through the area but it was convenient for the use of bathrooms and shower. Has an indoor pool and little recreational center. There are things close by if you need a Walmart or quick bite.

  Quiet

  Very quiet. Mostly long term rv’ ers. Looks like they have 1/2 dozen or so overnight pull through. Easy to get in and out. Costco, Cabelas, other retail, and restaurants across road in shopping center. Will stay here again when we have to come to Lubbock, TX.

  In town so cell service with Tello for my iPad and ATT for my phone was very good.

  Free

  Free little stop with hook ups. Sites are pull through. Accommodate about 4 medium trailers. Water and electric on site with dump station on edge of park. Near a quiet lower traffic highway.

  I was only one here Saturday. Nobody around. No bathrooms nearby, gas station looks almost abandoned. Very rural area.

  Loop Two Eight-nine RV Park

  Nice in town park

  This park was right next to the interstate so it was a little noisy. They have full hook ups, a clean shower house, and laundry for $33 a night. I wouldn't recommend this place if you're looking for an oasis but it was nice for a quick stay.

  Clean, convenient place to stop for the night.

  Clean place to stop for the night, while traveling through.  It was a good value in terms of price. Fairly quiet at night.

  One item to consider is that the back side of the park, right off the main (busy) road, was not fenced.  So, it may be a consideration if you are traveling with kids, pets or by yourself.  Did feel safe, overall.

  Very scenic, with Buffalo herds.

  Recommend reservations if you want a electric hookup! Sites are are spaced so you can hardly see neighbors. Buffalo walk right thru the camping sites.

  Spectacular views

  Checkin was so easy and super friendly. The campsites are very spacious and well kept. The most magnificent part are the views and there’s a scenic route you can drive… just beautiful! The prairie dogs are super cute and entertaining as well as the magnificence of the wild bison roaming about.

  Crosbyton City RV Park

  Good for an overnighter.

  Just add a few more details to what has been said before. It is free, but I gave a donation because I used the trash dumpster, water and electricity. I did find a few of the 30 amp outlets upside-down. Some of the electric boxes on one of the 4 pedestals were about to fall down (picture add). Two electric boxes per pedestal which means possibly 8 RVs, but only 4 water hook-ups. Didn't matter because we were the only ones there. I parked at the north end. Nothing is marked for the different spaces.

  Bisons and canyons

  We stayed one night on our road but the park is worth to stay longer. You also camp with bisons and prairie dogs.

  South Prong Primitive Camping Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  Wildlife worth it

  First evening came it as it got dark. Pretty easy to navigate the site by moonlight and get set up. However, Bison roam through the area and aside from hoofprints they will leave reminders of their presence. There is plenty of room between campsites/ neighbors and during our stay all visitors were pleasant, and courteous. Our first night encounter was hearing what may have been a mountain lion and purred what seemed to be right next to our tent. During the night it had bedded down in our vicinity and had moved on by morning. 2nd night you could hear the bison moving around the campsites. Easy access to trails for hikes. Beautiful skies and amazing views throughout the canyon.

  Honey Flat Camping Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  Better than Big Bend and Palo Duro Canyon

  I think that Caprock Canyons State Park is underrated, which is great for the people who visit. We'll definitely be back. 

  The campground is well maintained and easy to navigate. The views aren't as spectacular as they are at campgrounds in Palo Duro Canyon but BISON COME TO VISIT. Of course, to stay safe this often requires an exercise of patience. We were caught behind a heard of 12 or so on a hiking trail and maintaining a safe distance required a very leisurely pace, with lots of time to just take in the landscape. And we had to stand around and wait for another group to graze their way past our trailer on another occasion. But it was easy to keep our distance and they don't stay in one place long, so you just have to give them a few minutes. It was really neat to see these creatures roaming free--I thought it was a lot more exciting than seeing the herds in Yellowstone because there aren't the crowds of tourists.

  Waylon Jennings RV Park

  Good for a night or two.

  Pretty simple place to stay. Has 30 amp electric (shared post), water (shared spigot) and a dump station. No FHU at sites. Most are back in but has a couple of pull thru's. There are a few that look like have been here awhile, so space is limited. Some sites have low hanging tree branches and sites are short. We got our 40' in but luckily found a site that had no back post so we could back in further. Traffic noise is tolerable but is quiet after 10pm.  It is greatly appreciated that the city opened it up and allows us to use.

  Wild Horse Equestrian Area — Caprock Canyons State Park

  Nice park

  A little complicated in terms of finding a place for camping if you have rooftops tents.

  The designated tent places they have you have to walk into. Unless you want to be by all the RVs, which we don’t like. They have an overflow camping space, which was perfect for us. The place is very nice and has great views. We got visited by Bison at night and early this morning. Lots of coyotes howling at night and beautiful skies.
