My dog and I enjoyed this spot so much. Wide open camping. First come first serve. Grounds are very clean and well maintained. I can’t wait to come back and bring the kayak. Only thing I wish they had fire rings.

Nice wooded area, sites are spaced well, clean bathrooms, very family friendly, full of wildlife, gorgeous sunsets and starry night
GuideDue to our travels, only stayed here for one night to break up our drive. Now wish we had stayed longer. Nice large wooded sites. Drove down to lake Abilene but wasn't much of a lake as they hadn't had rain in a while. Said one good rain would fill her up. Look forward to staying here again for an extended amount of time.

Stayed here last summer on our way to Sedona, one night stop. Super friendly folks in the office, guided to spot following golf cart. 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. Camp store had a 50 to 30 amp converter we needed for later in the trip. Trail nearby and running up the hill gives you a great view of the surroundings. Would definitely stay there again if we happen to be passing through!
GuideWhen the full moon rises, the coyotes can't hold back their excitement!
LegendLarge spacious spots with lots of privacy. Deer and birds are all around.
LegendIf at first you don’t find something you like– keep driving! You’ll find it! This place is Texas big with more recreational activities than I have ever seen, and I have been on the road for quite a while. The only thing I didn’t see was a bocce court! There are multiple camping opportunities so take your pick. The Wagon Circle was a trip-- 17 sites with water and electric in a circle around the facilities, see the photos. There are two pools– a kiddy pool and a full size(25 yards) lap pool. The pool area is in great shape, but many of the other activity areas are a bit dated. I was relying on my Verizon hotspot because of issues with Starlink and the signal was not great. I ended up dry camping in a picnic area because it was the only place I could get two bars LTE.
GuideAbilene is a great state park with lots of space between campsites. We reserved #83 which was listed as a 25' site. We have a Class B with a very low clearance and could not make it up the steep incline to the pad without damage. Park official drove by while we were figuring out what to do and had us move to site 84. Still had an incline but we were able to get onto the pad by using some of our leveling blocks to raise the front end when backing onto the pad. Once on the pad, it was completely level. Used the blocks on departure as well.
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
Guide
We were greeted by the very friendly and welcoming owner, who showed us to our site and stayed until he was sure we would not have any issues at the site. The site was level and the hookups were in very good condition. The site was not too close to neighbors, but did not have a table. The park was mostly dirt with many nice trees typical of this region. There were a few toys around for children and an occasional bench to sit on. The park made for a nice evening stroll.
The RV park is conveniently located near the highway, but not too close. Highway noise was present, but distant and not a bother. There were trains that came through, but no whistles blew. We hardly noticed them and they did not disturb our sleep. The park was quiet and peaceful overall.
We only had 1 bar LTE with Verizon but had no issues with calls or using our hotspot.
This was a very nice place to stay a night while traveling. We will stay again when traveling this way. The owner let us know that March would be a good time to visit as nearby Sweetwater hosts its annual rattlesnake roundup.

My husband and I are on a very long road trip. Last night around 3:30 am we were getting extremely tired and needed to make a stop for some sleep. All of the rest areas were completely full, the normal camp sites were not able to be booked and so we pulled up the Dyrt for a last minute free spot. The area was not hard to find, the stars are breathtaking, it was nice and very quite. I didn’t see much trash at all ether! It is simply a great place to stop for the night. We woke up to a very nice sun rise of wind turbines and a lake with duckies! Simply amazing.
ScoutI was the only camper in the Cedar Grove area (mid-October). I saw deer around the campsite and heard coyotes nearby. Got 1 bar with T-mobile very spotty at my site. Took a hot shower and enjoyed some quite breathtaking views all around the park.
GuideAs with most every Texas State Park, the sites are well maintained and clean. Pads are level with plenty of room to get and out. Separate “Tent Only” sites are available. Lots of shade from trees throughout the park. First visit to this park on my way up to Colorado. Nice stop over when driving from Austin. Phone signal was not the best(booster helped). I was able to get internet using my phone as a hot spot for laptop.
This was first time at this park and I noted several families with kiddos enjoying the park, I was just passing through but would definitely stay again,
Legend
We stayed one night (May 29, 2022). The is a nice, easy access CG with large, level pull through and back in gravel sites. It is located right off of I-20 and next to a Love’s Travel Stop – there is a lot of road noise and trucking activity, but no bother. I added the Western Kingbird and Bullock's Oriole to my birding list here. The WiFi was good as was cell service. We did not make use of the laundry, bathrooms or showers. It was convenient for an overnight stay. We would stay here again.
Ranger
Decent spot for couple of nights while checking out the area. This park has maybe 10 sites. Most have tables and grills. Not really suitable for big rigs, as it is in the middle of Granbury. Ideal for tents, vans, or small campers. Lot of day use activity among the locals. Dumpsters and portable toilet are available. Lots of trees to protect from the summer heat! T-mobile was decent at this site. I was able to get some work done.
GuideA pretty basic state park, kind of in the middle of nowhere. I arrived at 9PM and google maps took me down a bunch of country back roads, which was a little unnerving. I camped in wagon wheel, which was doable, but definitely nothing to write home about. It had zero privacy and most campers seemed confused about which direction to park their vehicles. There was a yurt-like permanent structure in the middle that I was under the impression housed bathrooms, but certainly didn’t appear so. The pool area/buildings were very pretty, but the pool was bone dry. I never saw a single park ranger. I only stayed for one night and likely won’t be back.
GuideSpacious sites nice showers clean park
ScoutRV hook ups are water and electric. There is an unmarked dump site. See the website. Only 5 rigs here. Sites are not clearly marked but lots of space. We had good AT&T service. Bathrooms are flush toilets with no TP. No shower.
LegendWe tried to get a site at 530 on a Saturday night in February. Very few sites available for our 24 ft trailer. We did not want to unhook and that is not possible. Used bathroom which was clean. Would try again on a weekday since seems to offer nice hiking.
GuideThis must be a happening place in summer with the pool and lots of picnic areas. But in January it is quiet.
ScoutWe called the site and the owner was out cotton farming. Very friendly and trusting. We checked our selves in and deposited cash in the drop box. Got a military discount Site is a little disorganized could use some updating. Only thing it didn’t have was tv but the internet was excellent
Guide
This 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.
LegendI planned to stay here longer to explore the area, but with the combination of high winds and the set up here, I only stayed the night. Three sites are not clearly marked, so it's pretty confusing. The bathrooms were padlocked shut. The sign says to pay away the golf course. I arrived after dark, so I planned to do that in the morning, but someone was knocking at my door at 7:30 am to collect the fee. I didn't much care for that. It outs cheap, though, only $15/ night with hook ups.
ScoutMy husband found Ruddick Park on google maps n checked their website n it is open 24 hours.
Beautiful park on 138 acres, geese n ducks in the pond, pavilion, fire pit, amphitheater. The area by the lid building n trail states no camping otherwise no signage.
NO services so if you stay please leave no trace.
Quiet area with minimal noise.
TravelerNot a bad site for primitive and tent camping. Needs to be cleaned up a little bit and have a few things added but overall was a great weekend
