Eight miles southeast of Center, Ragtown sits within Sabine National Forest along Toledo Bend Reservoir's shoreline. The US Forest Service maintains this small campground with just eight developed sites, though expansion plans are underway. Sites accommodate RVs up to 24 feet and include water hookups, picnic tables, and fire rings.
Campers can access the area by car or boat, with drinking water, restrooms, and shower facilities available on-site. The forest setting provides habitat for various wildlife species away from urban noise. At $5-8 per night, the campground operates year-round and allows pets. For those exploring the broader East Texas region, dog-friendly camping near Sabine National Forest offers additional options throughout the national forest system.
