      Lake Livingston State Park Campground

      The campsites have a lot of space & are surrounded by woods. The concrete sites are level and offset from the next site (one on one side of loop, next site on other side of loop), which allows for more space & privacy (stayed in #006). I had full hookups (water, electric & sewer) at $25/night (Disabled Vet rate). It was very peaceful & quiet, except for some work that needed to be done nearby.

      Eastlake RV Resort

      We spent the month of May 2026. Everything was great, we were in site #166 in the back of the campground. The neighbors around us were all polite and friendly. The pool & hot tub was nice and clean. My wife liked the laundry facilty. I liked they have a free dog wash station. They have a stocked catch & release pond which has bass, catfish and bluegill. The campground was close to local stores. We enjoyed it so much were going back for the cold winter months.

      Wolf Creek Park

      Lovely, quiet lakeside spot with well-spaced spots and pristine grounds.

      I'd never heard of the Trinity River Authority before. It's not a name that jumps out when one thinks of camping. But in Texas, perhaps it should be. The private company built dams and reservoirs all over the state and funds their operations through water sales and permit use.

      Lake Livingston is one such project, the 3rd largest lake in Texas and the largest one constructed for drinking water. The company is clearly very serious about maintaining beautiful and professionally run grounds. The sites are generally well-monitored, spaced nicely, and situated with great water views if you choose one in that area (see my map photo). The park does not allow day use in camping areas nor day entry at all on weekends, keeping the entire park reserved for paid RV guests.

      I grew up around Lake Grapevine, another TRA project though I didn't know it as a kid. But I've never woken up to find a sunrise over a lake right outside my bedroom window. That's pretty special.

      Like another reviewer mentioned, I did see a dog running loose and investigating people's campgrounds.

      If you're in Texas and want peace, quiet, total darkness (there are no lights of any kind in the camping area), and lower temps than Houston, come check out Wolf Creek Park.

      Park manager is not friendly to guests

      I do not recommend staying here. I was bothered by park manager repeatedly. When I stayed here manager was nosy. He only cares about his reputation and how his park looks, he does not like kids and sent out messages to the people staying here recommending them to call Child Protective services if they see any kids playing outside. Bathrooms were frequently dirty, especially on Saturday and Sunday. I am never staying here again. I stayed with my wife and four children. This park is NOT family friendly. We would get mass text messages detailing various different authorities to call to complain about things as simple as children playing outside. The policing by the manager and Clear Lake Shores/Kemah was very excessive. Police would stop at people's homes at midnight to ask for directions to calls where guests should not be bothered by police absent involvement in the call. I saw this happen multiple times. A friend of mine who used to stay out in the park alleged she was assaulted and reported it and retaliation/harassment twice. The manager did not want to assist her by making the man leave or provide video evidence to have the man prosecuted for making it appear he was going to ram her ebike coming up the driveway. There is a convicted sex offender in the park. There were recently criminals staying in the cabins on and off as they do not do background checks. I do not reside in the park anymore. Lee is only concerned about maintaining a resort-style image and his own reputation and ignored significant guest safety concerns, allowing people to be touched against their will and harassed with slurs and name calling. Someone should not be called a B or F by another guest and then that harassment is ignored by management. Management should be addressing those situations. They need to address the steel rebar and unsafe wood hand railing on the docks before some gets seriously injured by the metal rods sticking out of the shore line. A child is going to fall off that pier and there will be a lawsuit to follow if that happens. One guests was even firing a projectile weapon out of his cabin door. The person later disappeared. I observed it when I was taking trash out. The park is not lgbtq friendly. If you take concerns about someone calling you by homophobic slurs to the park manager, the park manager will not get involved or assist you in preventing further anti-gay or lesbian insults being spoken against you by other ill spirited guests. I saw this happen to someone. It was mostly Republicans and rich people passing through. Edit: after I left the manager asked another guest that is staying there where I live. The manager appears to be trying to get at me personally since I have left 2 reviews for his park staying my experience.

    Guide to Spring

    Pet-friendly camping options near Spring, Texas offer diverse accommodations within 20 miles of Houston's northern suburbs. The region features thick pine forests with sandy soil and average summer temperatures around 95°F, creating an environment where shade becomes especially valuable during camping trips. Seasonal rainfall patterns affect trail conditions with particularly wet periods in spring and early fall.

    What to do

    Explore wooded hiking trails: Lake Houston Wilderness Park maintains over 20 miles of trails through varying terrain, perfect for leashed pet walks. "Lots to explore, neat bridges, cabin options, ranger programs, horse trails, kayaking, wildlife. Modern recently updated facilities," notes Harry H. The park's Isabella Trail leads to a secluded lake accessible only by hiking.

    Try fishing: Lone Star Lakes RV Park provides easy access to their 4-acre private fishing lake. "Free fishing in their 4 acre private lake," mentions Phil G. The park maintains exceptionally clean grounds with staff regularly maintaining the property.

    Visit nearby attractions: Traders Village RV Park offers camping adjacent to the popular Houston flea market. "Perfect with families with kids to wake up and go shopping and cheap all day pass rides!! This place is a Must go!!!" writes Roxanne G. The market operates primarily on weekends with short walking distance from campsites.

    What campers like

    Concrete pads: Northlake RV Resort offers level concrete pads that provide stable setup options. "Spot are very bigs with pincnic table and concrete roads," notes Milagros B. The resort maintains clean facilities including pool areas and designated dog amenities.

    Swimming access: Thousand Trails Lake Conroe provides multiple water recreation options with both lake access and swimming pools. "Gorgeous campground with a large lake and two ponds, a pool, putt putt, & tons of activities for kids!" says Nick & Allyssa S. The property includes a beach area for families and pets.

    Shade coverage: Forest Retreat RV Park offers sites with substantial tree cover. "Excellent park; large concrete level sites," reports Mindy G. The grounds are well-maintained with particular attention to cleanliness throughout common areas.

    What you should know

    Varying cancellation policies: Most campgrounds require 24-48 hour cancellation notice for refunds. Check specific policies when booking as some resorts have stricter requirements during peak seasons.

    Seasonal considerations: Summer temperatures frequently exceed 90°F with high humidity. Most campgrounds offer some form of shade, but air conditioning access becomes essential between June and September.

    Access limitations: Some parks have specific operating hours. "Well we called and called to make reservations but no answer or call back. Noticed the visitors center was closed on Tuesdays... Got there and the gates are locked," reports David T. about Lake Houston Wilderness Park. Always verify operating hours before arrival.

    Tips for camping with families

    Kid-friendly activities: Lake Houston Wilderness Park offers designated programming for younger campers. "Plenty of trails, wildlife, bathrooms and good fishing. We go here a lot! It's always good fun! And very clean," shares Amanda C. The park maintains ranger-led educational programs during summer months.

    Swimming options: Multiple parks offer swimming pools that provide safer alternatives to lake swimming for children. Look for parks with designated shallow areas or scheduled lifeguard hours.

    Wildlife viewing opportunities: Morning and evening hours provide the best wildlife viewing opportunities. "Lots of wildlife in this park, saw many snakes in camp and on the trails," notes Emily S. Remind children about proper wildlife observation distances.

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection considerations: When booking RV sites, check for width specifications. "The spaces are wide with picnic tables on concrete pads, giving pets and owners comfortable outdoor living space," notes the Woodland Lakes RV Park's layout. Many parks have limited big rig access despite advertising otherwise.

    Navigation challenges: Several parks have complicated internal road systems. "The office gave us a map and showed us how to get to our site but virtually impossible to understand," reports Douglas T. about Traders Village RV Park. Consider requesting an escort to your site when checking in at larger facilities.

    Extended stay options: For longer visits, inquire about weekly or monthly rates which often provide significant discounts. Many parks offer 10-30% lower rates for stays exceeding 7 days with full hookup availability.
