  Lake Sweetwater Municipal Park

  One night stop

  RV hook ups are water and electric. There is an unmarked dump site. See the website. Only 5 rigs here. Sites are not clearly marked but lots of space. We had good AT&T service. Bathrooms are flush toilets with no TP. No shower.

  Lakeside (TX)

  Outstanding

  Me and two other trailers camped at this outstanding hidden gem of a campground. We hosted a large fish fry so we rented a pavilion which was complete with running water, sink, microwave, electricity and a large fireplace. The pavilion came with several RV sites on the parking lot but I walked all over the campground and it was meticulously groomed.

  Buck Creek RV Park

  Good overnight spot off I 20

  Overnight 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.

  Tye RV Park

  Little Gem Right off Highway

  This park has new owners as of February this year! Rates start at 35.00 for level gravelled and paved spots but no qshade trees as yet. Pool is being built now and they have nicest laundry facility we’ve ever seen- best part is there are 9 machines which are FREE and new. Some highway noise as to be expected. Friendly staff and nice and clean. This park is mostly for long-term but have 16 pull - through designated sites in the front of park with newly planted trees. Highly recommend this great stopover!

  Overnight stop

  Great 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.

  COE Hords Creek Lake Lakeside Park

  Hords Creek #75

  Hords Creek COE in Coleman, TX Site #75 50 amp Full hook up Pull through site April 12-16, 2024

  The site was roomy with lots of shade trees. Our door faced the west & trees were not close enough to our RV to block out the evening sun. We did have a lakefront view, but the lake is WAY down.

  This loop was full over the weekend, but sites are spaced just far enough apart that you can still enjoy the peace & quiet.

  If I had a choice of any spot in the park, it would be #73.

  Will definitely be back. — at Hords Creek Lake.

  Abilene State Park Campground

  Hidden Gem

  The name is a little bit of a misnomer, because if you are from Texas…camping in Abilene doesn't sound that great.

  The park is closer to Buffalo Gap, south of Abilene proper and well off of I-20.

  Tent and RV camping options are available as well as yurts and screened shelters. All RV spots have water and electric, and a few spots have sewer.

  This is not a place to do hardcore hiking or biking or back country camping. This is a developed park and not super big.

  The pros though are easy trails that kids and all levels can hike and bike. The sites are well developed and make for easy camping. In the summer it is extremely hot but the pool is fabulous and you can even rent kayaks/canoes to take on Lake Abilene.

  It is a chill campground, a great way to spend a long weekend in the summer hitting the pool and cruising around on your bike. A place you can let your kids roam free and explore.

  COE Hords Creek Lake Lakeside Park

  Great Stay at Hords Creek

  Hords Creek COE in Coleman, TX Site #73 50 amp Full hook up Pull through site March 2024

  In the last 23 days, we’ve stayed in 6 parks, I have to say that this is my favorite park so far.

  The site is roomy with lots of shade trees with a lakefront view (even though the lake is WAY down). Sites are not on top of each other.

  There were a few people here when we arrived, but never heard a peep out of them.

  The peace & quiet that we’ve experienced in this park is beyond words. Relaxation at its best!

  When we come back, we’ll either get the same site, or #76. — at Hords Creek Lake- Lakeside Park.

  Love's RV Stop-Sweetwater TX 475

  Clean, gated, good grass, dog park

  Honestly this place is way better than i anticipated. Gated, clean, several of the sites have a covered veranda over the private picnic tables. Dog park with separate areas for small and large breed dogs. Full hook up w/ 50 amp and well spaced out sites. The grass is nice too (a lot of places are mainly weeds and stickers/thorns that my dog doesn’t want walk in). $52 for one night so a bit pricey for us to stay longer than a couple days but definitely a good place to stop that i feel is clean and safe. Others complained of hearing a train but we were there in the summer and with our a/c on i can’t hear any exterior noises

  Great spot for the night

  Emily I believe, checked me in and was super sweet and easy to work with. She let us pic our own spot!

  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!!) and new showers that look really nice

  The spot itself also has nice hookups, the septic hole was clean and the power box seemed new

  Great spot to go to!

  Concho Park - O.H. Ivie Reservoir

  Very Low Lake Levels Made It an Endurance Test

  1. There is no "lake" at this time. It is more like a narrow stream that winds through a valley. At 17% capacity when I visited in June 2018.
  2. There are drive-up campsites with electrical and water hookup, but apparently water had not flowed through the pipes going to my campsite in a very long time. When I opened the water valve, a flood of ants preceded a brown geyser of dirty water. I closed the valve and never opened it again during my overnight visit.
  3. There are primitive sites that overlook the "lake," but in the absence of water the view is surreal. It's actually a young forest trying to establish itself.
  4. You can get a burger and fries for lunch or bacon and eggs for breakfast at the Concho RV office. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
  5. Black ants rule the park. Plan accordingly.
  6. The Concho RV park has restroom/shower facilities that are free to use. The toilets flush, there is hot AND cold running water, and there was plenty of TP available. I had to hang the mirror on the wall myself.
  7. I found only 1 campsite suitable for hanging a hammock.

  Concho Park - O.H. Ivie Reservoir

  Quiet, Rustic, & Beautiful

  This is camping the way we like it -- rustic, beautiful and inexpensive.  And, there was no one there in January, despite the state parks being packed!  We had the place completely to ourselves, with the exception of a few fisherman.

  For $5 a night you can camp at any one of the dozens of sites scattered around the lakeshore.  Lots of space in between sites and most with beautiful sunrise/sunset views. Each campsite has a picnic shelter above the table for shade, and rain, a grill and fire ring, plus your very own trashcan – never saw all that before in such an inexpensive park but there you have it!   No hook-ups in the park, so bring your solar panel for some electricity if you need it.

  The lake is used mostly by local anglers, but I can imagine it gets pretty busy during the summer months when the lake level is at its highest. The only bathrooms were centrally located near the diner/ campstore/ RV Park/ gas station near the boat launch.  So, if you are out in the campground, you'll want to bring your own method. The folks were great there and let us use the wifi for a few hours. 

  There’s not much in the way of trails in the immediate area of the lake, except the dirt roads. A word about the dirt, it is mostly clay which when saturated with rain water will form the most exceptionally sticky mud to coat the underside of your vehicle. It comes off, but wow, only with some strong encouragement and a high pressure hose. 

  The closest towns with grocery stores and other services are Balanger and Menard, but you can get a few things including drinking water, ice, and drinks at the camp store.

  Abilene State Park Campground

  Tucked away in the trees

  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. There is also a pool area this must be booked along with your site reservations. There are also place to tent camp, cabins and yurts with electricity to rent. The sites vary from full hookups to water and electricity. Each site is private and not to close each with plenty of privacy. There is also a lake that’s outside of campsite area that can be busted up the road.

  Two things I love:

  1. Shade and privacy
  2. Picnic table and fire pit at full site hook up.

  One thing I didn’t like:

  1. Road is currently damaged for easier exit so their is a detour.

  Flatrock Park

  Relaxation at it’s Best

  This RV campground is beautiful and away from any road or city sounds and light pollution. This would be 5 stars but there are very few full hookup spots with sewer. Go to Recreation.gov to reserve your spot. If your in the area you won’t regret the stop!

  Press Morris Park

  Nice park on a lake

  We randomly stayed here overnight after making a detour to the cute town of Coleman (about 20 minutes away). It's clearly a local spot but was a great option for a stop over out of Texas. There's several sites right next to the lake with water and electric for $10 a night. Other sites not water front but are full hookups at $20 per night. There's a boat ramp there as well. The sheriff came by after we parked to collect the fee and gave us a receipt.

  Good cell connection and a quite place and beautiful place to stay. No showers in bathrooms and they were rather old and a bit dirty. Other than that, it was a great stay!

  OK for a night travelling

  300 yds off the freeway so it's kinda noisy. It's better than a rest stop tho. $42 a night, 30/50amp and full hookups. Laundry, showers and bathrooms onsite. Hosts are hard to contact after 5.

  RidgeView RV Resort

  Great newer park

  Right off I-20 in Abilene. A variety of pull through and back-in full hookup sites. Sites are sand/gravel with an artificial grass patch for each. Laundry and bath sites are new clean and modern. 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. The park sits on a high ridge providing beautiful west Texas sunsets.

  COE Hords Creek Lake Lakeside Park

  Peace and Quiet

  Beautiful and spacious sites, unobstructed view of the lake, well maintained park. Site 76 is at the last site on the stretch right beside the dam with no thru traffic (boat ramp is closed) and we never saw or heard anyone down there the entire weekend. Full hookups on that stretch and large shady spots with covered picnic tables, a fire ring, and a grill. Absolutely love this place and will definitely return regularly.

  Peaceful camping!

  This camp ground is well kept. Plenty of RV spots and tent spots. We like to tent camp. The bathrooms are pretty clean and maintained, and you never have to go to far to get to one. 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. My go to spot!

  Decent overnight stop. Easy access to I-20.

  FHUs, many level sites. Decent spacing between sites, a very basic, but clean campground. Less than 1 mile from I-20, so some road noise, but not overwheming.

  Small park, but awesome !

  For being a small state park it offers a lot of nice camping sights, for RVs and tents alike. There’s creeks running through the park aswell as a small fishing pond with crystal clear water. Nice easy hiking trails, and a bird blind. Just a nice getaway from civilization. We go there very often just to be outside and breath fresh air. And if you camp there, make sure to look up at night, what a view!

  Love's RV Stop-Sweetwater TX 475

  Nice!!

  The Love's RV Stop was clean with long drive paths and enough space. The information about the water hookup was a little confusing as it stated to only fill up vs water hookup while at your RV location. We didn't see a laundry facility as advertised or RV store. We feel though Love's RV Stop is convenient, we feel they're missing a few key points. If their going to advertise a facility, they need to ensure it's either at the Gas Station or the RV Campsite. There also needs to a storm shelter, building, or information regarding evacuations in an emergency, for tornadoes, hail, or worse since there's no tenant, representative, or security on site anywhere. Lastly, IF they're going to advertise the gas station stop as the official RV Store, there needs to safe walk path to store from the RV Stop vs unhooking to drive there when someone is only here for a layover (1 night). Other than those issues, the RV Stop is great! We would definitely use them more in the future!

  Tranquil Lakeside Stay

  My partner and I travel full time in our toyota dolphin and this place was a gem. We stayed for three nights and the lake was beautiful, the swimming areas clean, the bathrooms tidy, and we had no neighbors. And with our access pass it was only $8 a night for electric and water hook ups! Totally recommend. Our pups loved it too!

  Nice 1st time experience

  This was our first camping experience traveling full time in our 5th wheel. We had no reservations but found a "walk up" spot in the Wagon Circle Loop. Our spot was #15. It was a loop with back in sites which had electric/water hook ups. There is also a dump station. There were bathrooms, fire pits, and picnic tables. There is a recreation area nearby with a playground and a swimming pool. Due to the time of year, the pool was not yet open. There were hiking trails and it was our first experience with geocaching.

  Abilene KOA

  An OK place for an overnight

  This is not by any stretch a good campground.  That said, it is right by I-20 (you can hear the traffic) and there are not very many alternatives in the area.  This KOA has quite a few permanent residents (old campers with stairs and decks...) which, in my mind, gives it a little "creepy" feel.  The sites are gravel and are reasonably level, conducive to not unhooking for the night.  Not all sites have fire rings.  Some sites do not have the table on gravel but on grass.  

  We will stay here again--if we have no other choice.
