    Treetops RV Resort

    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.

    Johnson Branch Campsites — Ray Roberts Lake State Park

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Loyd Park

    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!

Most cabin rental facilities require reservations at least 30 days in advance during peak season from May through September.

What to do

**Fishing access: Lake Lewisville offers multiple shoreline fishing spots at Hidden Cove Park & Marina. "Great fishing, kayaking, play ground, and swim area. Very well kept up. The store is well stocked," notes one visitor about the diverse activities available.

**Water recreation: Joe Pool Lake at Loyd Park provides boat ramps and swimming areas. "They have a big beach, park area to enjoy. Staff is friendly," reports a camper who appreciated the facilities. The park charges a $10 daily vehicle fee, making a park pass economical for stays over three days.

"Very clean and picturesque park, would come back for sure," states one visitor about the natural surroundings. The park design features small loops with 15-20 campsites in each, creating a more private atmosphere.

What campers like

**Lake views: Cabins at The Vineyards Campground & Cabins feature optimal positioning for water views. "Large sites with covered picnic tables. Sites spread nicely with no one on top of you," according to one visitor who appreciated the spacious layout and privacy between units.

**Security measures: Gated access provides peace of mind at several cabin facilities. "Great security visible as well as a coded gate after hours," mentions a camper at The Vineyards. This security feature is particularly valued by families and solo travelers.

**Cabin furnishings: The units at Twin Coves Park offer modern amenities. "The cabins are well equipped with granite countertop kitchens even!" reports a visitor who was impressed with the quality of the accommodations.

What you should know

**Site variations: Terrain and privacy differ significantly between locations. "The outer sites are more tree'd and private, while the inner spots have little to no trees or privacy," explains a camper about the Turkey Loop at Hidden Cove Park.

**Seasonal challenges: Summer insect activity requires preparation. "We had ants in our trailer and lots of bites," warns a visitor to Northside RV Resort. Multiple reviewers mention fire ants as a specific concern in warmer months.

**Weather considerations: Flash flooding occurs in spring, affecting site availability. "Partially closed due to flooding," notes a camper about temporary closures at Cedar Hill State Park. Low-lying sites near water may become unavailable during heavy rain periods.

Tips for camping with families

**Playground options: Multiple parks feature child-friendly play areas. "Playground was amazing with an awesome 'roller-coaster' swing that the teenagers even loved," states a family who visited Dallas-Northeast Campground.

Tips from RVers

**Site preparation: Gravel pads may require additional leveling. "Level pads" at Northside RV Resort were noted as a positive feature by multiple reviewers, contrasting with uneven sites at other facilities.

**Water conditions: Supply interruptions occur during peak usage. "While we were there the internet and water was off a lot," reports a visitor to Northside RV Resort, suggesting that cabin renters bring backup water supplies.

"The park had absolutely no signs indicating where the campground is," noted one frustrated camper at Cedar Hill State Park who arrived after hours. This situation highlights the importance of having contingency plans during busy weekends.
