Hanks Creek Park has something for everyone, with plenty of water sports on Sam Rayburn Reservoir and volleyball, mountain biking, wild life viewing and birding for those who want to stay on shore. The Red-cockaded woodpecker, an endangered species, is found throughout the forest surrounding the reservoir. The bird makes its home by pecking cavities in large, living pine trees.
Fishing is excellent for largemouth bass, crappie, catfish and sunfish, with frequent fishing tournaments. The lake is also popular for jet skiing, water skiing and swimming.
Sam Rayburn Reservoir, also called Lake Sam Rayburn, boasts over 114,000 surface acres, making it the largest man-made lake completely in Texas. It's surrounded by the Angelina National Forest, and is within short proximity to the Sabine and Davy Crockett National Forests.
The 20,700-acre Bannister Wildlife Management Area is on the northern peninsula of the lake. Hikers and bikers can come here to explore the designated Eastern Wild Turkey restoration site.

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!

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.

Great spot on Toledo Bend lake with a boat ramp, boat slips, small bait and tackle shop. Reasonable rates and 50 amp service.
Guide
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.

Loved our stay here. We have camped several Texas parks and this one is nicer than any we’ve found so far. Nice clean upgraded bath houses. Great Lake views. Spotted an eagle out our window.
Scout
You can rent cabins and rooms at the resort. It also has a dock with boat launches, a cute little store, and a great restaurant with tasty food.

Incomparable beauty located on a tranquil harbor off of Toledo Bend Reservoir, one of the top 5 bass fishing lakes in the US. Cabins and lakeview RV sites on a bay surrounded by beautiful unscarred National Forest. A wildly popular restaurant and grill offering live entertainment every weekend. Kids love the swimming pool and splash deck and nearby jungle gym.
TravelerWould camp here again. Was defiantly a hot one in august 108 when we got here at 4pm.
GuideWe absolutely love this park! RV and tent sites right on the water, beach area for swimming, boat docks and ramp, etc. We extended our stay and plan to for awhile! The staff is so welcoming! Oh and there are 13 gorgeous cabins for rent! I highly recommend this park!
Guide
Nice little spot right off the feeder road tucked back into the trees. Great playground, beautiful pool, friendly staff. Wi-Fi was great! I was able to work without using my hotspot. Bathrooms and showers were clean and stocked. We would definitely come back here again.
ScoutBeautiful park that just recently changed ownership.
GuideVery quiet and relaxing park. Highly recommended
ScoutThis is one of my top favorite State Parks in Texas. It a bonus that it's reasonably close to home.
GuideHad nice spot right by the water. Kayaked by several gators. Very serene and beautiful park. Site was treed and gorgeous.
Definitely bring bug spray for the mosquitos.
GuideThe park was very well laid out. Roads seem to have been recently repaved as well as the RV spots. We arrived quite late and it was extremely difficult to find out spot because of the lack of lights. Bathrooms are okay, a little cramped but decently clean, no AC though. Bugs were a little bad in the evenings. The spot we stayed at had a beautiful view of the water and a lot of space. We were able to get 3-4 bars of service with Verizon and about 50-60 Mbps.

This KOA has trails leading to a river which empties into Lake Rayburn. You do not have direct access to the lake itself. The campground has a couple of small ponds. The staff is excellent. We were given a tour of the property via golf cart. The property is spread out. We stayed at a site with raised concrete pads. This place is not parking lot camping.
RangerThis KOA Holiday was a good place for a weekend camping outing. It’s right on Lake Livingston, so many sites have lake views. The sites are very close together, typical KOA style.
GuideWe have never seen such a beautiful and immaculate KOA in our travels! It truly shows pride of ownership by the family that runs it. It is located in Lufkin, Texas and has lovely scenery including trees and a pond. This park has everything including large paved pull-through sites with 30/50 amp. Each site has a grassy area and picnic table. There is a great pool and outdoor park area to play in. Check out this KOA if you are in the Lufkin area. A true gem! 😉👍🏻💗

ScoutWe stayed in a tent at site 124. It was crazy windy when we were setting up our tent. This part of the park was really windy for two of the three days, but we still had a great time. Typical, nice Texas State Park. Nice sites. Enjoyed the hiking on wide trails. They did not rent canoes or kayaks because of the winds.
GuideThis is really now the Lufkin KOA Journey. I'll try to get the name changed for this listing. This RV park is one of the nicest we've seen. We arrived here on a Saturday and we plan to leave to go further south the following Saturday. The pads appear to be newly poured concrete. All very level. The hookups are in good working order. This is a very clean RV park.
TravelerLovely older park. Lots of happy family activities.
GuideExcellent views fishing and camping spots! No sewer! :(
Traveler702 acre park, many sites on slews off a very large lake. We were in spot 308 across from the restroom and showers. Wide view of the water. $16 a night with 2nd night half off with a TX State Park Pass. Power, water, table, fire pit, wood $1 per piece. Parking spot was not level but other spots were. Verizon service was good. Lots of trees in the camp and in the water. Several trails. Our slew was patrolled by an alligator who was awesome to see. They have no problems with their gators.
