    The Retreat at Shady Creek

    Awesome RV resort in town

    We normally don't do RV resorts, but this one is awesome. The sites are fairly spacious, especially compared to other RV resorts. Big rig friendly with many different style spots to choose from. We always choose the fence line back in sites, and they always come with plenty of grass to walk the dogs. The fence backs up to residential, but that doesn't bother us. Even the back in sites are plenty spacious for a big rig and your tow vehicle and another vehicle. The park is very roomy and easy to navigate and park.

    The staff are always so nice and they make late check in a breeze, which we appreciate after a long, tiring day of towing. This RV resort is the only place we've ever stayed in that allows RV washing! For full-time RVers, that's pretty huge. They also have a mail room if you need to receive a package on the road.

    The resort is split up into two areas by the road, the Retreat area is more resort like and caters to short term stays, while the other half has long term stays. They both look nice and are clean and beautiful. We will continue to visit every time we pass through the area.

    Lake Park Campground

    Nice Place

    This place is well-maintained and a fairly nice park. Family friendly and there is a lake and playground within walking distance. The staff is courteous. We did not use any of the facilities, except dump station.

    There are specific sites for 30 and 50. The middle spaces for 30 amp have no shade. For 50 amp avoid sites 59-63, 0 shade. There are no sewer hookups at the site. Only dumping station.

    Reservations is done by calling the park, no online.

    Traders Village RV Park

    Clean and big

    We stayed 4 nights in site 24, PT FHU on a level concrete pad with a picnic table and plot of grass. $40/ni after Good Sam. The park is split into two sections; the side we are in is next to an airfield and the other side is by a small dog run (next time, I'll request this section bc I'm traveling with my dogs). They have a store and the laundry is clean and well priced ($1.25/wash, $0.25/12 min dry). The wifi is strong and the park is quiet. There are some long term, possibly permanent, tenants, but their sites are well kept.

    Lake Tawakoni State Park Campground

    Nice state park

    We don't stay at too many TX State Parks because of the added day use fee. We decided on this park due to its proximity to family in this area. The site was level and on a concrete pad with a parking spot right next to it. We did have a neighbor, so the space between us was fair. Our cell signal with Verizon was poor, so it made work difficult. Our site had W/E and there is a dump station. We did have a picnic table and fire ring. There are some sites that back up to a part of the lake. Noise level was pretty low. Unfortunately, we only spent 1 full day here, so we didn't really get to enjoy any of the hiking trails or do any fishing. We will definitely have to stay again in the future.

    The Vineyards Campground & Cabins

    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.


Guide to Rockwall

Rockwall County offers strategic access to Lake Ray Hubbard, with summer temperatures frequently reaching 95°F or higher from June through September. Winter camping near Rockwall requires preparation for occasional freezing temperatures, particularly in January when overnight lows can drop below 32°F. Most campgrounds in this area maintain gravel sites with varying degrees of shade coverage.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: Lake Tawakoni provides excellent catfish and bass fishing from shorelines near campsites. "The campground in late November is about 2/3 full with plenty of space between sites... We have a view of the water and wildlife across the road with no sites to impede our view," notes Mary H. about Thousand Trails Lake Tawakoni.

Walking trails: Several RV parks feature pond-side walking paths suitable for morning exercise. "There's a nice little pond you can fish in, catch-and-release only, no license required. LOTS of room to walk the dog!" writes Will and Lucinda B. about Bluebonnet Ridge RV Park.

Driving range access: Some campgrounds incorporate unexpected amenities for longer-term guests. "The park is great its real camping with the amenities of a resort. Pool play ground, game room and a 250 yard driving range!" shares Tammie L. about Thousand Trails Lake Tawakoni.

What campers like

Convenient location: Position between urban areas and lakes makes Rockwall camping strategic for multi-purpose trips. "Easy to access, even for larger rigs. We stayed in 39 foot 5th wheel. Plenty of pull thru spots, full hookups, regularly spaced bathroom/showers," reports Steve R. about Thousand Trails Lake Tawakoni.

Dog amenities: Multiple parks provide designated pet areas. "The park was clearly being maintained... There's a small dog park area. Doggie bags were provided in multiple places, and ample trash cans in which to drop them," explains Will and Lucinda B. about Bluebonnet Ridge RV Park.

Park maintenance: Several reviewers note ongoing improvements at RV parks. "Anytime someone left, or a spot was empty, new gravel was being dumped and leveled. Even though closed for Covid, the pool was cleaned daily," notes Will and Lucinda B. about Plantation Place.

What you should know

Bathroom availability: Not all RV campgrounds provide shower or restroom facilities. "WARNING: NO BATHROOMS, NO SHOWERS. Quiet park with easy access to Dallas. Nice dog walking area and dog park. Full hookups," cautions Jackie E. about Plantation Place.

Seasonal considerations: Extreme weather impacts camping experiences substantially. "Biggest ice and snow storm in 70yrs temperatures down to -2 degrees below freezing for several days several inches of snow. All park water lines froze, rolling blackouts by the state," shares J.R. C. about their winter experience at Lakeland RV Ranch.

Site conditions: Terrain varies significantly between parks, affecting leveling requirements. "It appeared that the campground doesn't have any sites that approach level. It is covered solidly with rocks, not gravel and some were quite large. A few of the campers had to have their back wheels off the ground in order to get level!" cautions Roy O. about Dove Hill RV Park.

Tips for camping with families

Pool availability: Several parks maintain swimming pools for summer recreation. "We enjoyed our stay here, it was quiet and we enjoyed the pools at the park. The bathrooms were dated and worn and some of the main roads were a little bumpy but it was a very beautiful park!" shares Katie B. about Thousand Trails Lake Tawakoni.

Activity centers: Some parks provide indoor recreation options during extreme weather. Thousand Trails Lake Tawakoni has "two separate pool areas and indoor facilities for events, games, TV, or community activities that they have regularly. There are playgrounds, mini golf, ping pong, corn hole, etc.," according to Mary H.

Cabin options: Alternative accommodations provide flexibility for mixed camping groups. "We were staying in a cabin with a plumbing issue. We were able to move to another cabin and Kevin and Chris were really helpful," notes Max W. about Dallas Rockwall RV Campground.

Tips from RVers

Internet considerations: WiFi quality varies dramatically between parks. "The Wi-Fi, while available, is really slow. When you connect, they track usage by hardware MAC address. Use too much, you get blocked and have to ask to be allowed back on," warns Will and Lucinda B. about Bluebonnet Ridge.

Overflow parking: Some parks provide additional vehicle storage. "There's ample overflow parking and trailer storage space so you don't have to crowd your campsite," shares Will and Lucinda B. about Lafon's RV Park.

Mail services: Long-term campers appreciate package reception capabilities. "They offer short or long term living... They have a nice laundry room and mailboxes on site," notes Sonny R. about Patriot RV Park.
