Love staying at Livingston. It is close enough to Houston that we can have a quick get away, but still be away from things that you can enjoy. The park is very well maintained, and the trails are good. A lot of people fish the lake, but I haven’t had a lot of luck - that doesn’t mean anything, though 🤣
Guide
Stayed over the long weekend immediately following Thanksgiving. Sure was very long and spacious with a great view of the lake. Sure was a little uneven, so some leveling was required.

If looking to be near a campground but still out on your own then this is the place. I got lucky enough had the place to myself for almost 2 weeks, give or take the few groups that tried to tough the biting fish. I will share a tip. They seem to sit dormant at 10pm and 3am for a hour each. No biting. Please clean behind as you found it.
RangerBeautifal long flat beach. Park folks were awesome in our lat minute camp ascurrsion. We ended up sleep in truck with really no camp stuff. They gave us hurricane food and ice packs in big bundle. Kindest thing done for us in quite some time. Keeps me a continued camper. There is also a little store by entrance of park b4 come in. He is a kind person also. The folks here make the park what it is. Serene.

Famous place where the limestone for the Galveston seawall after the storm of 1901 Has two ponds or waterholes. One is good just for fishing. The other grew up swimming in. Found big chunks of limestone all around still.
Ranger
One of our most favorite regular places to visit. It is awesome for just the day or to camp. It is a relaxed atmosphere here. As long as you dont cause a fuss you dont have one. There is plenty to explore, to do, to see, to find. There is a beached swimming area. Behind it is a explorable water trail that goes forever. There is stoned created waterfall. The beached pond is big enough to share for fishing away from swimmers. Down from the waterfall stoned way leads to a small pool that families gather with little ones. Places where on hot days can put out fokdable chairs in the water. If you continue their our routed canyons to explore with two more pools to relax or jump into with miles more of creek to explore. Top it off there is a small cemetary with a civil war vet buried in it. You can hike to the famous sawmill or just ride bikes. Thats just for a small list. There used to be a rope swing but i gather it wasnt being appreciated as it should of been and has since been removed.

The last time I visted about two years ago I can say was a average visit. If you are into fishing this place is for you. Has good spots for night time fishing. Lit up fairly nice also. When we were there only a set of older lady twins with some kids were there. They have a natural occuring beach nearby as well. Have a nice covered area for events or such that looks appealing. They advertise hold weddings there and even have a dressing room. Thing is there were no showers near that bathroom. The sinks were small and stunted to say the least. If you needed to rinse off to elbow or feet lol.. forget it. Which who has such a perfect event where water wont be needed better. Worst was the bathroom had been covered with feces no question. We were there in middle of the night so maybe timing was off. The dressing room was not much for thoughts of a real wedding dress. It be cramped for a regular gown. The view of covered area with lake in bkground is great but I think the advertise they put out there should be matched with it behind the scenes. But maybe the people who marry here wear only matching waders.

I didn’t see a concrete pad. We came out here last minute late at night. My son and I came. Had a little fire. Very primitive. Sand road on site. Washboard road to get it. It’s exactly where it was listed. Good spot to crash and be safe. Enjoy!

Went for the weekend last month now we are coming back for the whole month of October! Very clean maintained small campgrounds! Bathrooms fair enough for low traffic and close enough for convenience. Although everything was amazing clean restrooms and showers we wish it was more clear where the showers were they were not on the map trying to find them at night was interesting
TravelerClean, plenty of spaces, tents and RV’s. Nice fire pit. Nice lake view and water fun!

Thank you for sharing this review! It’s always helpful to get insights before booking a stay. While I’m here, I thought I'd mention that if you're looking for some good tunes to listen to during your trip, you might want to check out Spotify Premium Apkz. It’s a great way to access your favorite music without interruptions. Safe travels!

Our sites were amazing with gorgeous lake views with sunsets for dayyyys! The on-site restaurant had good cocktails and great food. We went during the winter (November, right before Thanksgiving), so didnt do any of the swimming/water activities. Super nice staff and all around great time. Clean park. We will definitely be back!
Guide
TLDR: Dirty, overpriced, bait n switch offerings, NOT an RV Resort.
This was the most disappointing RV park I've ever been to. It is marketed and priced as an "RV resort"....It is not. We had a good time because we had good company but this place was the butt of a joke...We went for Memorial Day weekend. (A holiday weekend) The kids couldn't play in the grass because it was so tall. One of the permanent campers (there are many permanent RVs) came by and asked if we wanted to borrow a mower..not kidding. It was sweet of him to offer, but we paid $73/night! Just yikes.
We were also warned not to go down to the beach area because it was destroyed by waves and there were water snakes everywhere. We were taken aback at the overall "resort" and could only laugh at how absurd it was lol.
The pool was packed with locals (It was a holiday weekend though, so I'll give them that one). The lady at the check in was super rude and was put out by us checking in. Overall, I would NEVER come back here. We camp at expensive places and state parks and everything in between. I've never written a bad review for a campsite, because I've never found a place that was this terrible. Had it been priced accordingly, I would've been ok with it, but this is NOT a resort and shouldn't be a resort price! Yikes.
There was more that I'm probably forgetting...but some other highlights: The splash pad didnt work. The kiddos said the playground was gross and sketchily creaking. There is no clubhouse. Oh, also, the infinity pool pictured on the website is 100% not the same pool that is there. There are many other campsites on the lake...go to any other one!
PICS SHOW THINGS FROM THEIR WEBSITE THAT DON'T EXIST OR ARE VERY MISREPRESENTED...In short...Book something else. I hope they get their act together, but their website is bait n switch.
ScoutI just have to say, this is the best place to stay! I love playing games here with my friends, especially using WorldBox premium Apk. It’s an amazing experience every time
ScoutThat was such a good place. Me and my friend was playing that mod version of carx street together that I was downloaded from Carx Streets Apk. We enjoyed alot. I will recommend to everyone to must visit this place. It was superb.
Traveler
We had a wonderful 1 night stay camping here! When the new owners took over, they did change the name to "Made in the Shade" so if you go to the website listed here it will reroute you to the correct page!
My partner is cycling the country and this is a great spot to stop for the night on the Southern Tier Bike route. We loved socializing with the owners & locals and others staying at the park, cooling off in the [well-kept] pool, and appreciated the good water pressure of the showers! 100% recommend. Thanks again for everything!
Guide
Great park if you want to get outside, but still want access to civilization.
Park is somewhat of a mix between wetland and forest. While this is an awesome ecosystem with lots to see and explore - take bug spray! Especially if going in May - when the Horseflies are out. We made the mistake of forgoing the Off and got eaten alive. This is our fault, and not the parks, though.
The park is conveniently located just outside of Beaumont. In fact, you may feel like you haven’t left the city until you are there. This can be helpful if you want to grab a bite and not cook, or if you run short of supplies. I would recommend this park especially for someone new to camping.
ScoutCampsites will be a great ideal for us to play a small world cup together as well as a proper way to relieve stress.

I booked my stay and called ahead that we would be arriving late.
It had rained like 4 inches the night before and the 2.5 mile old logging dirt road to get there was very nasty but doable.
I arrived around 10:30 pm. I found the office but it was all dark & locked. There was a recreation room I guess next door that wasn’t locked but no maps or signs or anything useful that I could see. I had no clue where to go or what my site number was supposed to be. My email confirmation from “The Dyrt” was all I had and it made me think maybe I was supposed to be at site number 8 by stating “No. of sites: 8”
I called & texted but got no response other than an automated text asking to text me back later.
I walked around in the woods in the dark with a flashlight & found site number 8 but it only had a 30amp hookup.
I drove and walked around looking for an empty spot with 50 amp service.
I attempted to try and stay at site 81 but again, no 50amp service.
I have severe sleep apnea so power is a must. If I had brought a 30 amp to 50 amp adapter then maybe I could have made it work.
After fighting and looking and attempting to call & text, I finally left and went to Jasper to get a hotel for the night.
I was very disappointed.
You should tell folks what site you’re putting them in & have a map to find it or at least answer the phone. If late arrival was going to be an issue you should have said something.
I came from Hempstead with 3 kids heading to my mom’s to visit her for the weekend. We were passing through on our way to Natchitoches. If I had known this was going to happen I would have stayed at Log Cabin RV but instead I had to lose about 2 hours, drive way out of the way on a very nasty road only to find that I had no place to stay that I could find. Not to mention end up paying $90 for a crappy room at the Econo Lodge in Jasper since it had truck parking.
Your place looks unique & I may be interested in returning sometime for the music but I guess after hours arrival must not be an option with you because this was a terrible experience.

This may very well be the cheapest lakefront real estate in Texas. You simply cannot beat $15/night right on the water! Very quiet, and never crowded (in November). Decent cell signal, and great reception on my Transistor/Weather radio.
GuideMy friends and family decided to book this place in late January. We say exactly 3 other people for the entire duration of our 3 day stay.
The sunrise and sunset are some of the best I’ve seen and the water though cold is beautiful and the sounds of loons, mourning doves, and coyotes hand in the air through the day and night.
This camp is quite deep in the middle of nowhere and I could t find any established hiking paths near by but I perhaps could have missed them.
Park host is super vigilant so if you feel like getting into some trouble, I’d look for another campsite instead of this one.
