"Smaller state park with lots of shade in the Texas heat. The areas has plenty of place to picnic and walk around. A few trails with a small pond that connects a few together."

"The bad is it alligns with the airport runway perfectly, right next to the railway and highway. Most people are there full time and some keep dogs outside."
"The rv park itself is right off highway which is good and bad. A little noisy but not bad for easy access after long day of driving
They have all new laundry facilities (which are free to use!!)"
"We stayed here many years ago for a reunion close by, the owner/park host was not a rule bender at all and was strict. We stayed in cabins and had a good time while we were there."
"This place is located close to the main gate of Dyess AFB. The spots are in the parking lot of the VFW. Not many spots to park in. Always feel Welcome here!!!"
"Lots of highway noise, but easy to find. All spots were taken, but we got lucky when someone left.
Drive past the bathrooms and the entrances to the sites are on the left."
"not too bad on the campsites couple of holes watch out but nice and secluded and close to river ♥️"
$40 - $55 / night
"Nice pool and fire pit area next to the camp store. There is some road noise from I 20, sites farthest away from the office are farthest from the highway."
"Next to I-20 so there’s that. Good pool, dog park, laundromat with pay per load on machines-card. Hard Gravel parking- most sites not completely level, astroturf yard."
"General: Approximately 140 sites (plus 12 cabins) spread out all around Hords Creek Lake in two areas: Lakeside Park and Flat Rock Park."
"We take our bikes to get around. I’ve gone to Lakeside since I was young for family reunions and camping and I love it. It’s always so peaceful and I love to watch the deer that roam around."
TravelerRV camping only apparently, was told I'd have to pack up my tent by local police. Nice place otherwise though and a free first night is enjoyable
ScoutThe camp host is so friendly. Road down the lane on his bike and we had a great conversation. It's quiet and peaceful here. I would certainly come back! Thank you, David.
TravelerFairly new park on top of hill. Stayed long term so very familiar with park. Next to I-20 so there’s that. Good pool, dog park, laundromat with pay per load on machines-card. Hard Gravel parking- most sites not completely level, astroturf yard. Roads are asphalt paved so great for walks. Did not use showers. Good sewer, water pressure and 50/30 amp available-included for overnight. Good Spots just for overnight folks-Pull through. Backin long term-very good- best in area for electric kWh price. Good long term rent price. First A.I. mega center being built in the area so wait list long term.
GuidePart of the city park, next to the ballfields, a series of ten or so widely spaced shelters, each with a picnic table, and electricity and water for two campers at each shelter. Flat, grassy ground, well maintained and trash-free, all next to a small pond. Clean restrooms and trash receptacles on site. Welcoming sign: free the first night, $15 per night afterwards. Off the beaten path and a very pleasant surprise. Great sunset and watching the birds on the pond.
GuideGPS instructions took us to a locked gate, behind which there were tall weeds growing up around an abandoned site.
ScoutOvernight stop, far enough from the interstate that the road noise was minimal. Easy to book online last minute. New owner on-site, came by to make sure we had what we needed. About 50 sites, most seem to be long-term. I would stay again.
RangerStayed here nine nights this year in the wagon wheel. Reserveamerica.com a.k.a. Texas State Parks Reservations showed on their map sites one through 16. Google maps Street view showed sites one through 32. Rare for Google maps to have Street view pictures of the internals of a State Park. When I got there, I realized they had reconfigured what was 32 separate sites with their own pedestal to 16 sites with a pair of pedestals each, nicely spread out. Beside me there was one or two other campers the whole time I was there weather got real cold, 16°. I camped in sight seven, which was near the entrance to a trail and fishing spot. There was very little traffic even on the weekend in January.
TravelerSeeing the most recent review (on another pin but same park name) we knew the area was abandoned/seemed a little odd or questionable but without many options in this area we decided to try it. With no obvious spots to park we just pulled off the road (no other options) and set up for 2 nights- a break for a long stretch of road.. within an hour two teenagers came up asking for a tow cause they got their truck stuck in the dried out lake. After that until about 12 am there were trucks in and out trying to help them. Then at 5:30 am a huge white pick up truck pulled up blasting music and circled our two campers multiple times. And I mean circled getting within 5 feet of our campers/vehicles. We stayed in the campers and after about 30 minutes they left but we immediately packed up and left.
RangerGreat overnight stop if you are needing full hook-ups although it is loud due to its proximity to the freeway and Love’s Truck Stop. We prefer dispersed camping but needed full services to be able to shower and fill water so the noise was expected and tolerable. Staff was friendly and facilities were clean. Note: the facilities are not available after office hours which in December are 9-5.
