Great stay!
We really enjoyed this park. It’s very clean and quiet. The trees are beautiful and add great shade. Most of spaces are pull through and very easy to setup at. We had a fire pit and picnic table. The bath houses are nice and private. We used the laundry services and everything worked properly. The staff is very friendly and easy to access in case you need something. Fitness room is little but updated and clean. My boys jumped in the pool even though it was 55* outside and said it was a fun experience. Easy access to Target just around the corner, Parks mall is close by and Arlington Highlands shopping is really nice! The road into the park is only 2 lanes with no shoulder, but as a Michigander I’m finding Texas roads to be interesting 😅 WiFi worked for my family of 5 the majority of the time for simple things. Hubby works remotely and went to Panera for stronger/faster service.
We did stay in 2 spaces as we extended our stay and someone had previously booked our space.

Hidden Cove Park & Marina
Not just for camping!
Clean and spacious RV sites in two areas, about 100 total and several with water view. Open and tree covered sites in both. Cabins also available, again several with water views. Two designated tent camping areas separate from RVs. Dry storage and dump station on property as well. The park offers open activity areas and covered picnic tables by the water. A 3-lane boat ramp to Lewisville Lake, rental paddle boarding, full marina, and swimming area. Seasonal restaurant with indoor & outdoor eating areas. Privately owned so there is an entry fee, but 2 or 3 levels of yearly membership passes available saves a lot! Currently upgrading to full hookup for all RV sites and wifi.

Expensive but almost worth it
One of the more expensive Texas state parks. Standard electric at 25/night. Large bathrooms and lots of trash bins. Actual pay phones (who knew those still existed?) the trails are for DORBA (Dallas Off Road Bicycle Association) so maybe that explains the horrible lack of signage. Bicycle fix it station.
Great security. I was with my 3 year old after dark, maybe 8PM at the playground on the water. No lights so I used our lamplight. I noticed a truck in the parking lot with its lights on. We were there maybe 90 minutes and the truck kept moving. When we left, they left. I spotted it down the road and saw they were camp rangers. Bodes well that they were keeping tabs on the facilities even if it was just a mom and kid.
Very clean and moist spots are secluded. Lots of REALLY great primitive spots if that's your thing.

Cedar Hill State Park Campground
family fun
I've been camping here plenty of times as a kid growing up in Cedar Hill, TX. My family and I would camp in the spring, early/late summer, and fall months. Plenty of sites have a campfire grill and picnic table along with electrical outlets. Good camping sites for "glampers" who have to have Internet access and electronic use. Finding/reserving a campsite is super easy at the welcome center where you pay an entrance fee to the park. Plenty of lake to share with other people at this state park. My brother would go fishing at the smaller ponds here. At some campsites, you can here the traffic passing by on FM 1382, but if you can sleep through that noise, you'll be fine. Plenty of hiking/biking trails as well. Great to bring pets. Bathrooms are available as well near many of the campgrounds.

Very nice
Our site had a concrete pad for our rv. Full hookups are very nice. While we were here nightly thunderstorms came in. The staff were on top of it as they drove around alerting everyone about the wind approaching. Clean laundry room and restrooms. We didn’t use the store due to corona fears and didn’t need to. Pet friendly. Quiet at night. I would absolutely stay here and recommend it to anyone. The only spring time issue is lake flooding will close it.

Nice State Park
Nice state Park. We stayed here 3 nights. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Although the park has been around awhile it is maintained well. Our site had plenty of room to the next site, had a covered picnic table, fire ring, and lantern hanger. Water pressure was 50 psi, sewer hookup was close, but electrical box was in the front and most modern RV's electrical connection in the back (30 foot cable just reached). The park is close (2.5 miles) to Cedar Hill where you can find shopping, dining, fuel, etc. Would stay here again.

Loved the tent sites
We found this place when our other reservation got messed up, but boy am I glad we did! The tent sites have water and electric at each site. Sites feel secluded and spread out and our was covered by trees so the shade was great!
There was a little litter around the campsite but my son and I tired to clean up as mush as we could before we left.
There was a covered picnic table, fire pit, and grill, and lots of nails on the picnic covering table (although they are up really high, so if you’re short it’s hard to get to them).
We plan on going back and taking advantage of the hiking trails and swimming spot!
Guide to Plano
Cabin camping near Plano, Texas offers shelter options within 30-45 miles of the city. Most cabin sites sit between 500-700 feet elevation with average summer temperatures reaching 96°F in July and August. Winter lows typically range from 35-45°F, making year-round overnight accommodations possible with proper climate control systems.
What to do
Water recreation access: At Twin Coves Park, visitors can enjoy lakeside activities with convenient equipment rentals. "We had a great time. It was really busy but that's okay, we still enjoyed it," notes one camper at Cedar Hill State Park Campground, which offers water activities within a short distance of cabin sites.
Mountain biking trails: Several parks provide trail systems for cyclists of various skill levels. According to a visitor at Twin Coves Park, "you have a boat ramp, kajak launch, mountain bike trails," making it suitable for active outdoor enthusiasts.
Fishing opportunities: Multiple lakefront cabin locations feature dedicated fishing areas. "My boys caught a 12 lb and 20 lb catfish right off the fishing dock," reports a camper about their experience at The Vineyards Campground & Cabins.
Nature programs: Some parks offer educational activities about local ecosystems. A visitor at Ray Roberts Lake State Park mentions, "We learned what native plants we can eat!" These programs provide additional value beyond standard accommodations.
What campers like
Cabin privacy levels: The layout of cabin sites varies between parks. At Johnson Branch Campsites, a visitor notes, "The sites are cut in a way that gives you privacy. The sites are fairly close together but the grass makes it feel like you have your own little oasis."
Water views: Many guests appreciate lake visibility from their accommodations. A camper at Loyd Park shares, "Our site was only a hundred feet from the lake - gorgeous view!"
Clean facilities: Well-maintained restrooms and cabins receive consistent positive feedback. "Ray Roberts Lake State Park has clean and warm bath and showers," reports a recent visitor who stayed during colder weather when temperatures reached 38 degrees.
Social activities: Some properties coordinate events for guests. At The Vineyards, they "have events throughout the week for social activities for adults and kids," which enhances the cabin camping experience beyond basic accommodations.
What you should know
Reservation requirements: Many cabin sites book quickly, particularly during summer months and weekends. A visitor at Twin Coves Park advises, "reservations are strongly recommended over the weekend."
Fire restrictions: Fire policies vary significantly between properties. Some allow contained fires while others enforce strict prohibitions. Check current fire status before arrival.
Wi-Fi connectivity: Internet access is inconsistent across cabin locations. One visitor at Lafon's RV Park noted that "the Wi-Fi was not good, that would be my only complaint," which may impact guests planning to work remotely.
Bathroom proximity: At certain parks, cabins may be located far from restroom facilities. A Johnson Branch Campsites visitor explains that "you have to walk/drive to the electric sites for showers or flush toilets," which requires advance planning.
Tips for camping with families
Playground access: Multiple parks feature play areas for children. At Twin Coves Park, a visitor highlights, "What a beautiful park. Lake front, kayak rentals with a great cove to paddle around in. Walking trails galore."
Safety considerations: Security varies between properties. A camper at The Vineyards appreciates that there is "Great security visible as well as a coded gate after hours," providing peace of mind for families.
Kid-friendly water areas: Several parks maintain designated swimming zones. A visitor at Hidden Cove Park & Marina mentioned, "The park offers open activity areas and covered picnic tables by the water. A 3-lane boat ramp to Lewisville Lake, rental paddle boarding, full marina, and swimming area."
Specialized equipment: Some locations offer unique recreational features. According to a Johnson Branch visitor, the "playground was amazing with an awesome 'roller-coaster' swing that the teenagers even loved," providing entertainment for various age groups.
Tips from RVers
Site sizes and layouts: Cabin and RV site dimensions vary significantly. At Loyd Park, "All sites are paved, several are lake front, and the majority of them are well shaded."
Utility hookups: Electric capacity differs between locations. One camper advises, "Some sites are 50 amp, while all are for 30 amp. Larger rigs are more accommodated next to the lake. But call ahead to see which sites have 50 amp, you'll need it in summer time."
Leveling requirements: Site terrain varies across properties. At The Vineyards, a visitor notes sites are "concrete pads and level," which reduces setup time and complications when arriving.
Access for larger vehicles: Not all parks accommodate big rigs. When selecting a cabin location that allows RV camping, check road width and turning radius limitations in advance.
