    Martin Dies, Jr. State Park Campground

    Swampy kingdom

    We have passed this place several times on trips to other places and finally decided to check it out the first of Nov. We rented a small rustic shelter / cabin. Essentially a slab walls roof with a heater and ac. It did also have a picnic table inside. It was actually perfect for my family of 3. This park was very quiet and was abundant with wildlife. We seen dear, armadillo, racoon, and a fox all close to our site. There were many trails to hike and the park a tally spans two sides of the highway be sure to explore both. This was a great camp for us and we will definitely visit again.

    Martin Dies, Jr. State Park Campground

    Martin Dies State Park

    This is a huge campground with many sites being on the water and the rest being close to it. If you’re here for boating or fishing, like most people, you can get a campsite near a boat launch. The campgrounds are all very wooded and shady, though some spots don’t feel very private. They have a lot of sites with electricity and there are lots of bathrooms and shower houses. So while it’s crowded and large, it’s well laid out and still feels like you’re really close to nature. They also have a bunch of cabins and screened mini-cabins you can rent to ease the bug situation...which was pretty intense. The mini-cabins were very cute and look relatively new, but we didn’t stay there. You can walk along some trails straight from your campsite. Bring a kayak, canoe, or boat and you’ll have a great weekend here.

    Beautiful lake, Spotless Camp grounds, Awesome Staff

    Went to Powell not knowing what to expect.  The lake is beautiful, the camp grounds are spotless and the Staff is awesome.  Great facilities whether tent camping, RV camping or staying in a cabin.  Cabins are small and rustic as you would expect but very clean.  What you’d want since you will be outside enjoying the great outdoors!  Boat rentals, pontoons for larger groups, fishing, water sports, they have it all.  Did I mention how awesome the staff is??? So accommodating and friendly.  We will be back!

    Enjoyed trees and the gator!

    702 acre park, many sites on slews off a very large lake. We were in spot 308 across from the restroom and showers. Wide view of the water. $16 a night with 2nd night half off with a TX State Park Pass. Power, water, table, fire pit, wood $1 per piece. Parking spot was not level but other spots were. Verizon service was good. Lots of trees in the camp and in the water. Several trails. Our slew was patrolled by an alligator who was awesome to see. They have no problems with their gators.

    Really only for day trippers or RVs

    Nice campground with nice amenities, but i think it's really too geared towards RVs and daily use. I'd call it an RV park more than a campground

    You have your standard sites, but they're all powered and hookups so whatever you get is going to have an RV near you.

    There are your standard table and fire rings, but you also have decent bathrooms (with some vault toilets mixed in for surprises) and showers...

    Great location if you want to use the boat ramps and head out onto the water.

    Village Creek State Park Campground

    Little Hidden Gem

    This is a small hidden state park that has rustic beauty. 25 campsites with electric and water, that can be used for campers or tents (tent pads at each site). We camped with a 27 ft camper, with barely enough room. Slightly unlevel, needed 2 blocks on left side. Each site has a tent pad, table, and firepit. There is a dump station. Extremely clean shower and bath house. Several hiking and biking trails, as well as a small beach area, kayaking, fishing, gazebo and playground. A nature center was on site which has activities for families on the weekends! Walk in tent camping without electric and water available. Our site #4 was only 16 dollars a night. Park rangers and camp hosts were knowledgeable and kind.
