Bring your horses and enjoy riding on our property- we dont have stalls or a barn for them, but you are welcome to graze them for hours and ride them freely on our land. ATV's are welcome to be used on our property so long as our property and other guests are respected. We will be building this campground as we go, using input from our guests!

        Overview

        Bluffview Park is located on the southwest side of B.A. Steinhagen Lake, in Town Bluff, Texas. The lake provides a great getaway for fishing, boating, picnicking, camping and birding.

        Natural Features:

        The lake lies in the heart of the East Texas Pineywoods, a beautiful region known for its pine uplands, bottomland hardwoods and pine-hardwood mixed forests, which provide habitat for a wide range of wildlife.

        White-tailed deer, squirrels, rabbits, red and gray fox, bobwhite quail, and numerous species of ducks, geese, waterfowl and songbirds make their home in the area.

        Recreation:

        B.A. Steinhagen Lake is a prime location for boating, canoeing, fishing and wildlife viewing. Several parks with boat ramps and docks are scattered around the lake.

        Fishing is a popular pastime. Largemouth bass, catfish and crappie are the primary sport species found in the lake.

        Younger anglers love the childrens fishing pond within Magnolia Park, just 6.5 miles north. A Kids Fish Day is held annually in June.

        The road systems within nearby Magnolia Ridge and Sandy Creek Parks offer excellent family biking opportunities for 3-5 mile rides.

        Facilities:

        Bluffview Park is a year-round day-use area that offers one large group picnic shelter with electricity and water. Numerous individual picnic sites, some of which have shelters, are available on a first come, first served basis. Flush toilets, drinking water and trash collection are provided.

        A small store is located across the road from the campground with bait, fuel and ice.

        Nearby Attractions:

        Nearby Martin Dies, Jr. State Park offers hiking, canoeing, fishing, swimming, biking and wildlife viewing opportunities. The Walnut Slough, Sandy Creek and Neches Paddling Trails meander from 3-16 miles on the parks backwater sloughs, the open lake and the swift Neches River.

        The Angelina-Neches/Dam B Wildlife Management Area is located at the north end of the lake, covering nearly 13,000 acres. The area boasts beautiful mature hardwoods, including cypress, sweet gum and red and water oak. Some areas feature stands of loblolly and shortleaf pine. Visitors have the opportunity to hunt, fish, hike and view wildlife in this extraordinary ecosystem.

            Beautiful camp and Camp host was super friendly and informative !

            Went for the weekend last month now we are coming back for the whole month of October! Very clean maintained small campgrounds! Bathrooms fair enough for low traffic and close enough for convenience. Although everything was amazing clean restrooms and showers we wish it was more clear where the showers were they were not on the map trying to find them at night was interesting

            Village Creek State Park

            Keep an eye out for Bigfoot!

            Great park if you want to get outside, but still want access to civilization.

            Park is somewhat of a mix between wetland and forest. While this is an awesome ecosystem with lots to see and explore - take bug spray! Especially if going in May - when the Horseflies are out. We made the mistake of forgoing the Off and got eaten alive. This is our fault, and not the parks, though.

            The park is conveniently located just outside of Beaumont. In fact, you may feel like you haven’t left the city until you are there. This can be helpful if you want to grab a bite and not cook, or if you run short of supplies. I would recommend this park especially for someone new to camping.

            Peaceful paradise

            This location, the hosts, the animals and ponds all place you in a calm cocoon. My dog was thrilled to be allowed of leash. I loved the convenience of having electric and a beautiful pond view.

            If you are an animal lover this is an easy 'yes' for a liason to stay.

            This may very well be the cheapest lakefront real estate in Texas. You simply cannot beat $15/night right on the water! Very quiet, and never crowded (in November). Decent cell signal, and great reception on my Transistor/Weather radio.

            Beaumont, TX…..Would stay again

            Very nice lady called prior to our arrival to ask if she could charge our card so she could prepare the packet. When we arrived it was all ready and maybe took 5 minutes. Didn’t use baths or laundry. Park was clean, plenty of length for our 42’ 5th wheel and truck. Hookups were in good spots. The sites are very narrow and pretty close to fellow campers but it was all good.

            Perfect Nights stay when traveling through

            We loved this campground. Stayed one night on our way to Houston. Then We stayed one more night on our way back home. Site 18 was pretty level and had full hook ups. The campground overall was really very quiet and peaceful. Was approx 2 miles off highway 59. Had a great playground area for kids and we loved walking down to the lake. The lady running the office was super kind and very helpful. If we ever get back to this area again we will be sure to stay for more than one night.

            Great spot!

            Stayed one night and was pleasantly surprised with what the park had to offer. Great views of the water a short walk from my stall, fully renovated and clean bathrooms and decent separation between the sites. My site backed onto the highway but wasn’t very loud. I’d stay here again for the affordable price of $26

            Very peaceful

            This place is amazing. The spacing between sites is huge. The lots are. Probably 100 feet. They're almost all I should say. Back inThe closest town is Jasper, which I'll take you. Half an hour to get to so if you need groceries. Bottled water. Propane gas. Get it before you get here.

            Big Rig Friendly

            Right off I-10. Roads inside park are large enough to all rig sizes. Our site had dog poop over it when we arrived so they do not check the sites before you arrive. The pad is buried into the ground which cause hills into the grass. A great way to break an ankle. It also caused a hill for the sewer hose to run uphill. Tire ruts along the pads have not been filled in.

            The spaces are paved with a fire ring, covered picnic table and a lamp post. There’s also what looks like a fish cleaning station, as this site is also a great place to fish from. Love the views!

            This place is the most unique and charming site to stay.  We were greeted by gentle giant dogs (and a few neighbor dogs), a few goats, cute kids, and horses.  Woke up to a pig grunting which we found utterly adorable.  There is a great... I mean "Insane Sausage" place up the road you wont' want to miss.  Loved this place and would stay again.

            Free place to rest when driving on 10

            Easy to get to, we were the only camper here. Some fishermen down on the water during the day but we were the only campers. Our 42’ 5th wheel fit nicely on the gravel patch by the cement picnic table. Only rules are to register (info on the sign, free but you have to call the number) and don’t park on the grass (there were some day use people parked on the grass but they want campers on the gravel) - can’t beat it for free.

            I have only been here one night so far and my first impression began with the office staff. They were so friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are fairly old however they were very clean. Checked out the laundry room which was also clean. I haven’t used it yet but the machines look decent and clean. Because I am an Escapees member my rate for a 30 Amp back in space is 22.00. I consider that very reasonable.
