    Lake Palo Pinto RV Park

    lots of potential

    I came in on a Monday after making my online reservations for several days in early January. The office was closed midday, but I ran into a woman who said the camp host was deer hunting.. There were lots of empty sites so I pulled into one of several with a great view of the lake and power station. There was goose shit everywhere. Rain and snow was predicted. The ground looked solid, but certainly could use some more gravel and leveling. Eventually, I got an email that I should move to another site where it would be dryer. That site did not have the height clearance my rig needed so I stayed where I was, I stayed through the shit storm and left after a week. It was very quiet with very little traffic.

    Tranquillité, paysage magnifique

    Première expérience avec notre RV. Excellent accueil de David. Un endroit paisible au bord du Lac. Accessibilité parfaite. Cormorans, canards, oies, hérons nous ont émerveillés. Les places au bord du Lac sont à privilégier pour bien profiter du lieu.

    North D&D - Brazos River Public Use Area #4

    Quiet and serene

    Camped here on a weekday in November and we pretty much had it all to ourselves. Clean facilities with toilets and showers. Deer roamed free and the lake was peaceful with a small dock for boating and fishing. Enjoyed it here.

    North D&D - Brazos River Public Use Area #4

    Off-season boondock paradise

    One week stay during the first week of December D&D south. Weather: highs in the 60s, lows in the 40s. Covered picnic tables, grills, fire pits, trash cans at most sites. Restrooms spaced throughout the park. Massive trail system throughout the area. Excellent service for school/remote work. Ideal for tents, vans, truck campers, and small trailers. No cost during May-September. No water or dump in the parks, but there are showers. There are sites directly on the water and up in the hills. Would return!

    Hunter Park

    Pretty!

    A cute little park with lots of picnic tables, a pier, and a huge field. The bathrooms were closed but they supplied a porta potty and the nearest gas station is only about two minutes away. Very connected to civilization and it was very well kept. Lots of people seemed to know about it, there were around 15 people who camped there last night and ten or so cars that came through for the fishing pier. If you’re a fisher, this is the place to be! The fish are active. The lake is gorgeous, but if you are car camping or tent camping, be wary about the fact that there will be little to no shade. Plenty of space for a big rig, and the whole thing is designed in a loop, so no backing out necessary! Plus all driving areas to and from the campsite, as well as in it, are paved.

    GOOD !!

    Midway Pines RV Park is indeed a gem! The peaceful atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, and well-maintained facilities make it an ideal spot for a relaxing getaway. I totally understand why you feel so comfortable there. Speaking of relaxing, if you're looking to pass the time while you're enjoying the serene vibes, I highly recommend checking out the Traffic Rider app. It's a fun and immersive way to experience motorbike riding through beautiful landscapes, just like the ones around the park! Give it a try during your next visit—it's the perfect way to unwind!
