    Ebenezer Park

    Simple park, good scenery

    We went in early March for tent camping. The park seems very well designed for equestrian, but also good for tent camping. The trails are nice and wide. Tent spots are spacious, although most sites do require a decent walk from the car.

    Ebenezer Park

    Decent

    There aren't many sites for basic tent camping here, maybe 10-15 tent sites, and the rest are equestrian. It's a pretty tidy looking campground. There is a park host that is usually hanging around if you need something. We ended up being neighbors with a large group that was using their fire like a bonfire so we let the park host know about it. Probably won't come back unless in off season. But it's good enough

    Good stopover

    We stopped here for one night traveling from Florida to Texas. Small but nice park. Stayed in site # 22. Sites are long and narrow but plenty of shade. Park has some trails and creek area. Bathrooms were excellent!!! Park was not busy at all. Great for stopover as it's not far from I-10.

    Park is back to completely open

    Hurricane Harvey flooded most of the park in 2017 but now it is completely open. The park is very nice. It is very typical of Texas parks.... awesome!!

    Brookeland / Lake Sam Rayburn KOA

    Loved being by the water

    If you want to escape the hot summer in Texas, I would recommend coming to Brookeland Campground because there is a beautiful lake nearby. My cousins and I took a trip to this campground to enjoy the lake, hiking and of course the outdoors. We brought a 6 person tent, and this fit comfortably in our campsite. There is also a fire ring and table within your site as well. There is only 1 bathroom within the campground, or at least what we could find. It was a porta-potty style, and smelt so bad. Not sure how often they clean it, but it was pretty bad (especially with the heat....made it worse!). Thankfully we came prepared and brought our own toilet paper, because by the 2nd night we were there, there was no toilet paper in the bathroom. We heard a few people complain about this. Although the bathroom was gross, the rest of the campground was pretty clean. There are dumpsters as you leave, so please make sure to clean up after yourselves. We enjoyed hiking in the morning, and then playing in the lake mid morning-afternoon. There were tons of people swimming, boating, tubing, kayaking and stand up paddle boarding. It was a blast, and perfect for the hot weather. Definitely bring bug spray because there were so many mosquitos near the campground. I left with a few pretty big welts. I would definitely come back to this campground! Recommend.

    Village Creek State Park Campground

    Keep an eye out for Bigfoot!

    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.

    Maiden Voyage

    Our first stop in the maiden voyage of our travel trailer and this park was good and kind to us. Beautiful, level pull-thru sites with plenty of space from others, shade and sun and within walking distance to bathhouse and swim beach. Mosquitoes abound and there is no cell signal or wi-fi. Prepare to drive 20 minutes to grocery.

    Village Creek State Park Campground

    Great little park

    We enjoyed Christmas in this quiet park, kinda chilly and pretty deserted. As per normal for RV parks, WiFi sucks but cell signal was adequate (fairly strong with WeBoost) close proximity to shops and restaurants (loved Tia Juanitas Fish camp). Walks, bike tracks, river for kayaking all add to enjoyment.

    For those who have showered in an RV, let me say that the high pressure, hot shower is great. Nicely maintained public facilities were great. Level campsites (some look a tad shorter than most) Friendly staff. We did find 7 nights a bit long, but we will be back in the future


Guide to Woodville

Equestrian camping near Woodville, Texas centers on a region with extensive pine forests and diverse terrain at elevations between 200-400 feet. The Angelina National Forest and adjacent Sam Rayburn Reservoir provide natural boundaries to riding areas, creating distinct ecosystems for trail riders to explore. Trail conditions vary significantly between summer drought periods and winter wet seasons.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: At Sexton Pond Dispersed, anglers can access various fishing spots throughout the day. "If looking to be near a campground but still out on your own then this is the place... I will share a tip. They seem to sit dormant at 10pm and 3am for a hour each. No biting," notes camper Yasmin S.

Lake swimming: During summer months when temperatures regularly exceed 90°F, several campgrounds offer designated swimming areas. "Swimming area is designated but kind of hard to get to," explains Robert W. about Ebenezer Park, suggesting visitors should check access points before planning water activities.

Trail exploration: The national forest system around Woodville features trails suited for different experience levels. "Walks, bike tracks, river for kayaking all add to enjoyment," reports Kevin H. about Village Creek State Park. Trails typically range from 1-5 miles with varying difficulty levels.

What campers like

Privacy between sites: Many equestrian-focused campgrounds provide good separation between camping areas. "We enjoyed the privacy of the non powered camp sites," shares Melanie C. about Village Creek State Park Campground. This layout allows horse owners to maintain distance from other campers.

Natural surroundings: The preserved wilderness areas create habitat for wildlife viewing. "Very quiet, sites not on top of each other (some more private than others)... My personal agenda is all things nature related. The land, peace, plants, birds, land animals and TREES, water sources and types," describes JenniferWinning at Double Lake NF Campground.

Access to water features: Multiple camping areas incorporate water access as a central feature. "Deep in the woods and on a nice shallow lake. Fantastic for walks around the lake, playing in the park, and fun trails," explains Devin P. about Double Lake NF Campground, highlighting how water features enhance the camping experience.

What you should know

Weather impacts: Seasonal conditions significantly affect trail quality and camping comfort. "Hurricane Harvey flooded most of the park in 2017 but now it is completely open," notes Bradley H. about Village Creek State Park, indicating how extreme weather events can temporarily change access.

Limited amenities: Many sites around Woodville offer basic services only. "There is only 1 bathroom within the campground, or at least what we could find. It was a porta-potty style, and smelt so bad," reports Analia F. about Brookeland / Lake Sam Rayburn KOA, highlighting the need to come prepared.

Variable road conditions: Access roads to horse-friendly sites can present challenges. "Down a hard packed gravel road. A few potholes but nothing major," describes Jennifer M. about Sexton Pond Dispersed, indicating 4WD vehicles aren't necessary but caution is advised.

Tips for camping with families

Fishing for children: Smaller fishing spots can engage younger campers. "We have enjoyed our stay at the preserve! Have 3 little boys who enjoy fishing and they have plenty of creeks and ponds near campsites," shares Zachery S. from The Preserve RV Resort.

Playgrounds nearby: Some campgrounds offer kid-friendly recreation beyond trails. "Near by groceries store and town playground close by," notes Erin R. about Double Lake NF Campground, providing alternative activities when children need breaks from trail riding.

Swimming options: Water activities provide cooling relief during hot months. "Beautiful little lake, relaxing hiking and clean sites... Pretty good fishing. If your looking for a day trip it's perfect!" suggests Amanda C., describing accessible water features for family enjoyment.

Tips from RVers

Site selection: RV campers should research specific site dimensions. "Great RV campsite #36. Pull thru and has great privacy," recommends Erin R. about Double Lake NF Campground, pointing to preferred locations for larger vehicles.

Hookup availability: Utility access varies significantly between equestrian-focused campgrounds. "We stayed at a site with raised concrete pads. This place is not parking lot camping," explains Kimberly N. about Brookeland Lake Sam Rayburn KOA, highlighting the difference from standard RV parks.

Service limitations: Cell coverage and amenities can be minimal. "Mosquitoes abound and there is no cell signal or wi-fi. Prepare to drive 20 minutes to grocery," warns Phoebe M., noting the isolation that comes with equestrian-focused camping areas.
