Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Bonham, TX

This park is close to highway and great for overnight stay. The park has pull through full site hookups. The park has a pond that is the center of the entire campground. The park has two dog parks available as well for those traveling with pets.

Two things I loved:

1. Close to highway quick stay
2. The pond nice view with ducklings

One thing I didn’t love: Really close to others for extended stays.

We stayed here 5 months on a work trip. Nice sites most are fenced in with big yards. A few pull thru sites unfenced. The long term sites are well maintained, the staff do a great job of keeping the place nice. Nice big dog park with a pond, also a grooming and dog wash area. Has a pool with hot tub, and a small playground for the kids. We enjoyed our time here, so unique to have a fenced yard. Only down side is the Texas heat and none of the sites have any shade trees.

Great location to stay if you are visiting the area of Bonham Tx or just passing thru for the night. Lot of road noise. Also be sure to have a long sewer hose. Down town Bonham has lots of great restaurants and there is a Walmart about a mile down the road on hwy 82. Bonham lake is about 2 miles away and the new Texas lake Bois d’ark is about 5 miles away. The lake should be open by March of 2022.

Bonham is a small but uncrowded park. Lovely and clean fresh water lake. Tent campsites are well sheltered by trees. Big grassy group campsite area that looked inviting. Lots of biking/hiking trails. Nature is always a blessing but the landscape here is just your average Texas.

Wild, yet docile horses will approach you. You can pet them and feed them by hand. Tall trees and gorgeous campsites. Donkeys hee-hawing, birds singing, and fire flies glowing. Scattered ponds throughout this 100 acre plot. Feel free to explore the nature or just chill at your campsite. Rick Parent, the friendly wolf-rescuing author and musician, will be your contact for your stay. He will have your spot mowed and ready before your arrival. He is kind, welcoming, and such a treat to visit with. There are minimal mosquitoes, so that was certainly a relief. You will be about 12 minutes away from the nearest Walmart, in case you forget some camping supplies. We had to go there to buy more carrots for the horses. (40 pounds of carrots). I highly recommend that everyone go check this place out! Share the energy of this beautiful land and always remember to pack out what you pack in.

First RV stay so this review is from the perspective of a family that has no experience with any RV Parks. 3 Stars is my starting point and as we stay at more campgrounds I would like to think that we will have a better understanding of what makes an RV stay "5 stars". This location is "first come/first serve" sites so for a beginner that can be a bit challenging. Working with Thousand Trails and the experience with that service was great. The road into and around the park was okay, there was room to drive around the entire park while looking for a spot. The spot's varied in size and there were no fire pits or grills provided by the park in the spots that we were able to see. The picnic tables have seen better days and i'm sure that is not uncommon. The 30 amp S/E/W hookups were clean and no issues with any service during the stay. There was not cable so TV was over the air antenna only. Cell coverage was fine during our stay. The park had activity areas but with COVID restrictions most were still unused. There is road to the lake that you can take to go to a small fishing pier and some rocky lake area access. The restrooms/showers were clean and the garbage bins were full but never overflowing with trash. There are multiple pools and the water appeared clear from a distance. Saw lot's of pet's and every size RV, there appeared to be quite a few long term RV sites. We would visit again since this is part of our Thousand Trails membership.

The park was ok but not a whole lot to explore. The park had search dog training I assume while I was there. Heard barking dogs all night.

Very friendly staff. Helped us get settled in a spacious pull through site on level, hard packed, crushed stone. Really nice area to walk the dogs!

Keep in mind, this is a KOA Journey. If you are staying here it is for a break on a road trip or to visit the giant casino across the street. That said, the sites are spacious pull through sites. There's a small pond that had Canadian geese swimming in it. The bathroom and shower area was immaculate and felt like a nicer hotel. There's a kids playground, nice pool, and dog play area. We would definitely take advantage of this again.

HORRIBLE RV PARK TO STAY IN! Wi-fi cuts on and off and the owner won't even try to do anything. Owner won’t discuss problems with you…hides behind front office staff. Expect lots of noise(don't plan to sleep) NO amenities- other than an expensive laundromat Not convenient to the Dallas metro area(as advertised) Park has heavy gravel for roads(noisy and not good for walking dogs) Do not pay upfront till you have seen what you are getting(which is not much) NO refunds- even to unsatisfied customers who leave early because of park issues Do NOT recommend this park to anyone who has ever stayed in a real RV park!

OK. I’ve gonna say it. I ALMOST didn’t stay here because of the reviews although it’s convenient and there aren’t many other places to stay…. I’ve been full-timing for 2 years. I think I do a decent job of giving a place a decent review(good or bad). THIS PLACE IS A GOOD PLACE TO CAMP! Sure, the roads have some potholes… but I would rate the entire Dallas metroplex as WORSE. There is absolutely NO REASON not to camp here. The folks at the front gate were helpful. I avoided any rough spots in the road and arrived at a LONG and roomie site with a beautiful view of the lake. Although my rig is completely self contained, I checked out the water flushing toilets and they were spotless. I was so happy with this campground, I booked another night. There was some water around the water connection, but I stepped around it. The water worked perfectly. The Electrical hookups were properly wired. I backed in and used my extension power cord because the box was located midway from the rear. Since the space was so long… I could have pulled up a bit. I enjoyed my camping experience here. Any size rig will have plenty of room. It was quiet, had lots of space to walk the dog, the sites are spread out, the lake is RIGHT THERE, and all I can say, I’m glad that I made the decision to‘check it out’…

Beautiful old Texas State Park with all the hookups and things you need for a nice time. Level sites all with great water views close to everything. Very nice and helpful staff.

They bathrooms and showers are clean and close there's a basketball court and kayak rentals. There's a fishing pier anf lots of covered tabels and grills and it's a nice Sandy Beach ... No where better to camp in North Texas

One of the cheapest of the Texas State Parks. Tent only spots are 15 a night and comes with electricity. One bathroom for everyone which makes for a walk. Decent trails but many are closed for silly reasons. Within 15 minutes of Walmart.
