Reservations secure spots at this 100-acre private campground that accommodates RVs up to 42 feet and welcomes tent campers. Located east of Commerce, the property features scattered ponds throughout forested terrain near water sources, with the host mowing individual sites before arrivals.
Free-roaming horses and donkeys wander the grounds, approaching campers for interaction and hand-feeding. "Wild, yet docile horses will approach you," notes Aaron W., who recommends bringing carrots for the animals. The property also attracts fireflies in the evenings and various bird species throughout the day. Tall pecan trees provide natural canopy over campsites, while minimal mosquito activity makes outdoor time more comfortable.
Standard amenities include restrooms, picnic tables, and fire rings, with firewood available for purchase. The campground allows pets and provides trash service. Cell service reaches the property, and ADA-accessible facilities serve campers with mobility needs. A 12-minute drive connects to Commerce for supply runs.
The host, described as welcoming and knowledgeable about the land, maintains the grounds and assists with wolf rescue efforts. For RV travelers seeking full hookups, Commerce RV Park offers a more developed alternative nearby.
