"Smaller state park with lots of shade in the Texas heat. The areas has plenty of place to picnic and walk around. A few trails with a small pond that connects a few together."
"We had no reservations but found a "walk up" spot in the Wagon Circle Loop. Our spot was #15. It was a loop with back in sites which had electric/water hook ups. There is also a dump station."
"Otherwise it was a well maintained state park, clean bathrooms, flat sites, easy hook ups. Not much to do but some easy hikes and I believe fishing/boating."
$15 - $20 / night
"I stayed two nights at this campground and found it to be really nice and located on Lake Nasworthy. During the summer months they rent boats and have a little store on site."
"The water and electric sites had no shade whatsoever. And the full hookups are first come first serve. So beware of you need or want to visit in the summer. I mean hades.
Oh."
"The price was average for 30 amp hookups with wifi, cable tv, restrooms, shower and laundry. There is an onsite pool and game room, trash pickup, dog park, and the lake is a short drive away."
"It was super hot when we arrived and were pleased to find the crystal clear pool to cool off in. Doggies enjoyed the dog park. "
GuideSmaller state park with lots of shade in the Texas heat. The areas has plenty of place to picnic and walk around. A few trails with a small pond that connects a few together. There is also a pool area this must be booked along with your site reservations. There are also place to tent camp, cabins and yurts with electricity to rent. The sites vary from full hookups to water and electricity. Each site is private and not to close each with plenty of privacy. There is also a lake that’s outside of campsite area that can be busted up the road.
Two things I love:
One thing I didn’t like:
TravelerThis was our first camping experience traveling full time in our 5th wheel. We had no reservations but found a "walk up" spot in the Wagon Circle Loop. Our spot was #15. It was a loop with back in sites which had electric/water hook ups. There is also a dump station. There were bathrooms, fire pits, and picnic tables. There is a recreation area nearby with a playground and a swimming pool. Due to the time of year, the pool was not yet open. There were hiking trails and it was our first experience with geocaching.
TravelerThis trip was an odd one for us because we had additional family members who aren't outdoorsy joining us. Tent camping did not appeal to them so we reserved one of the yurts that Abilene State Park boasts. The yurt had electricity, a mini fridge, fan, and a small air conditioner. Even with the AC on it was well over 90° in the yurt, which we weren't thrilled about, especially since we had an elderly family member with some health issues in our group. Otherwise, the park is fine. It has a nice pool, easy walking trails, and access to a lake that is strangely located outside of the park a few miles down the road. The facilities were nice and the staff memebers werw mostly polite and helpful. I wouldn't recommend the yurts, but then again that's not really my thing to begin with.
ScoutWe stayed in campground #37 in Cedar Grove and thought it was wonderful. The site was spacious, and it had a water spout, a picnic table and fire pit. The trees are really pretty in this area. The bathrooms were not the cleanest I’ve seen during COVID times but the entire campground was empty so we were not super concerned. And they have showers, which is so nice. Definitely recommend!
GuideThere's not much to the park, but its claim to fame is that there are yurts! Stay in one of the canvas tents for the night or pick a tent spot at Cedar Grove to be centrally located. While not a huge area, there's a decent 3.5 mile hike/bike trail around the lake and back.
LegendAbilene State Park is an interesting park to visit in the middle of Texas. The park is a short drive from the City of Abilene so it receives quite a few visitors on the weekend. During the weekday, you'll find considerably more peace and quiet.
You can pick up supplies in the city and there is also a small store within the park office with some snacks and souvenirs.
The park has a nice grove of trees scattered around the open spaces and the campsites which can provide sanctuary shade from the summer sun. The campsites have clearings for tents, picnic tables, fire pits and water. There are restrooms nearby which have sinks, toilets and shower, all of which could stand some updating. There's a swimming pool which is often the main attraction of this park.
When I was planning a visit to the park I thought that it would be nice to be right on the shores of Lake Abilene. However, I discovered that the main park area and campsites are in one area and the access point to the lake is in another area. You actually need to drive outside of the park, down the road and enter into another part of the park. There's a dirt road to access the lakefront and once you are at the lakefront there is a little beach. I guess that this is one reason why so many people appear to prefer hanging out at the swimming pool.
The arrangement of the facilities is a little strange and many of the facilities could use an update. For this reason I only rate this park 3 out of 5.
GuideThis is the 2nd Texas state park I've stayed at. Both have a weird design. Bathrooms are at 1 end of sites. I was driving distance. It was cold, 20 degrees . This place suffers from long term neglect. Peeling paint, broken trim , It's a beautiful place. Great views. Bison, long horn and tons of deer.
GuideThe Cedar Grove tent camp area was well wooded with sites that were decently spaced. The sites had a fire ring/grill with a lantern post. There was water spigot close to my site. The restrooms were clean and the showers hot but the heater shower was slow to heat up. Decent views of the stars at night
TravelerThe set up of this park is a little different. There are two sides. One side has the camping with a few trails. The other side has the lake with a bit longer of a trail.
The trails are easy to do and the camp side is heavily wooded so it’s a nice walk even in the summer months.
