    Waxahachie Creek Park

    Close to Nature

    I wish I could rate this campground higher because it was so peaceful with quite a bit of bushy vegetation to provide a small measure of privacy between sites. This is as close to nature as one can get in a campground!  There was poison ivy on the trees next to us and in the mowed ground around the campsite.  There were so many butterflies, flies, and other flying insects on the sunny side of our RV that it made entering and exiting through the sliding door very difficult. And, the ANTS! After one night in our site, the ants had formed an active trail to the top of our RV. Consequently, we had ants inside the RV!

    The roads inside the campground need to be repaved.

    The camp host and the park ranger were both very friendly and informative.

    Lake Whitney State Park Campground

    Beautiful in Spring

    I thought the wildflowers were the greatest feature, and then we caught sight of an angelic band of pelicans just overhead on a migratory flight - a very moving sight I will never forget.

    East Fork Park Campground

    Functional with good views

    Pros: Great views of the water and wildflowers in the meadows. Reasonable price. Everything works and the shaded picnic tables are a plus. 5G plus signal on ATT for anything you might need online. Downsides: It looks like there could be a lot of water pooled on and behind our site with a heavy rain. The pad has definitely broken up over time and isn't level. The fire pit is also sitting at an angle. We noticed two groups of campers with 4-6 extra cars having gatherings last night, so that might have been distracting if we were right next to them.

    Dodge City RV Park

    Good spot for camping

    Been there last year during out trip to Texas( mainly hiking in Britton park and a few other local trail spots and camped at Dodge City RV park)

    Pros: good clean spots for camping, everything you might need is pretty close
    Didn't try RV spots, but those looked really nice too.

    Cons: Didn't find any.

    If you gonna be visiting TX during June-July for trailing and camping - my advice is: make sure to get a pair of comfy shoes(my go-to are Brooks men's running shoes like those https://rununited.com/mens-footwear/) - trails are pretty rough and it's extremely hot and humid near bodies of water... Gotta dry your shoes every few hours

    Cedar Ridge Mobile Home & RV Park

    Solid option if you're near Dallas

    Stayed there during our trip to Texas, after visiting Big Bend. Overall, pretty good spot for RVing.

    Couldn't find any photos, probably is on the camera I've left at my folks house during the trip.

    Pros: easy to find, quick booking, good view.

    Cons: can't remember any.

    Also a semi-pro is that it's located pretty close to a bunch of outdoor sports stores( https://gritroutdoors.com/ is the one we've visited most I think) so if you forgot something on your trip - it's pretty easy to pick up.

    Very big park.

    A very big old park. Getting an overhaul. Was here in January but would love to see park in season. Many different types of sites. Has a fish pond, wonderful beach and day sites.

    Lake camping

    Decordova bend park is managed by the Bravos River Authority. Has several picnic tables, grills and a public boat ramp. Free to camp with a 10 day max. It was very clean and there were many deer in the area all night.

    Beautiful location and kind people

    I chose this place as a proposal location- she said yes! It was an amazing location that I enjoyed a 3 day stay at. There is black water disposal by the entrance with a hose, along with a dumpster on the road out. No water or electrical hook ups at the site but that wasn’t a worry as I brought batteries, solar, and my own water storage. I did notice the site nearby was utilizing a loud generator, so that noise was prevalent night and day throughout my stay. Other than the hum of a motor constantly mixing with beautiful nature sounds it was an incredible experience with amazing people and scenery. I would absolutely love to visit again very soon. I can’t say anything on the bathrooms, as those were shut down for the colder weather, but I brought a cassette toilet and there was no issues with that.

    I recommend this place to anyone wanting great views and kind people.

    Cedar Hill State Park Campground

    Pretty sunset right on the water

    We got a primitive campsite right on the water and we’re able to fish a little bit once we arrived. We got there after 5 but there is a kiosk where you can check in and grab a map to find your site easily. The park is pretty big and there was a nice fire pit and picnic table we could use. It was still really hot during the time of year we went, but other than that it was nice.

    Nice State Park

    Nice state Park. We stayed here 3 nights. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Although the park has been around awhile it is maintained well. Our site had plenty of room to the next site, had a covered picnic table, fire ring, and lantern hanger. Water pressure was 50 psi, sewer hookup was close, but electrical box was in the front and most modern RV's electrical connection in the back (30 foot cable just reached). The park is close (2.5 miles) to Cedar Hill where you can find shopping, dining, fuel, etc. Would stay here again.

    Weekend trip

    We made a quick weekend trip to the local state park. Great clean park with a nice boat ramp. This is our home lake so we wanted to visit the state park. Would go back for a weekend trip for sure

    Bad would give it 0 stars

    This campgrounds doesn't enforce rules.  Like burn ban people next to us had a fire.  Its 100 plus degrees and we haven't had rain in this area.  Also had a german shepard dog running around free.   They told is he wasn't aggressive but he came over to our campsite 3 times.  Followed our kids down to the water.  Owner didn't care and thought it was funny.  They had 4 trucks parked on the grass area.  At least 6 adults and 8-10 kids running around.  Kids would come over to our campsite to pee.  Just because your outside doesn't mean you can do or act anyway.  We were fishing and kids would drive the jet ski over our lines in the water.  No adults said anything.  Plenty of space for everyone but the kept coming as close as they could to us.    Park Ranger didn't fine them for the fire in which they started up as soon as he left.  Park did nothing to make this a safe and happy place to relax.  We left early to avoid any further issues with them drinking heavily it was just going to get worse as they got drunker. 

    This park looks good with only 5 electric and water hook ups but don't be fooled.  They don't enforce any basic rules.  Bathrooms even though we have a camper were so gross I would want to go in for 1 second.

    Spacious sites with lots of shade.

    I stayed overnight here while traveling from Galveston, Tx to Ohio. The employees were friendly and accommodating. Check in was easy and the campsites offered some privacy as they were spaced pretty far apart. Lots of shade trees and very peaceful. I would definitely stay here again.
