Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Amazing campsite. Highly recommended! Scenic and conveniently located next to a beautiful winery.

3 nights at Sundance Camp on Lake Texoma

We had a relaxing time at Sundance. The lake access is close and the amenities are as described. The positives: lake is nice and close to the tiny houses, we had good access to a couple lake side beaches, the hosts are communicative, and the tiny house village is very quaint and cozy. The negatives: If you’re coming on the 4th of July, despite the no fireworks policy for this property, the surrounding neighbors are pyromaniacs, The grill bottom we had was rusted out and we had to find a portable charcoal grill to cook our food, and we didn’t have any privacy shades on our tiny home. Overall, it was a positive experience and I would stay here again.

Weekend Trip to Friends In RV Spaces

This was my first Hipcamp stay and Sam and Sarah came to meet us shortly after we arrived and had everything ready as we pulled in. Hook up was great. They have great amenities. Sam spoke to us about his slice of heaven and walked with me to meet his chickens. Thank you so much. We will be back

3 nights at this is Paradise on Lake Texoma

The cabin and park is just amazing it feels so cozy and the view of the lake is incredible. Can’t wait to go back! If the wind is too high in the lake for paddling there is a cove next to the cabin area that is great for paddling and blocked from the wind.

6 nights at Friends In RV Spaces

Nice spot, good location, and friendly people. What more can you ask for? We’ll be back!

1 night at 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

The land is beautiful and spacious, an absolute great place for dogs!

1 night at 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Well maintained and clearly marked campsites, with included fire rings and provided wood to use. I stayed in campsite 7, so it was a pretty long walk up to the shower house/bathroom. The views were great, and the location was very secluded and private. I would highly recommend. Little to no Verizon cell coverage in the campground, if you walk up towards the road I found some service.

What a great experience, host was gracious, funny and very friendly. The tent site was isolated from others, allowing us to enjoy a private experience. I will make this a destination in my future travels!

Weekend Trip to 4G Ranch at Tipps Lake

Great views with well cared for tent sites. We plan to be back.

Weekend Trip to Burgers Lake Camping

I wasn't sure what to expect but was really happy. We got to the waterpark/campground around 5pm on a friday so the place wasn't too packed and they didn't charge us to use the pool that day. The staff, esspecially Sherwood who has big plans for the poace, were all super friendly, helpful and told us to pretty much camp anywhere that you could park. We had the whole place to ourselves that night and my boys and friends got to run around playing tag in the dark which they loved. The next morning we were able to pick out the best spots on the lake for the day and had a blast. Just know that apparently during the off season they let you make a campfire but during the pool season they don't. We were there the first week of season and they made an exception so if campfires are important, you might want to double check with them before hand. Other than that, I'd absolutely recomend camping here.

2 nights at 4G Ranch at Tipps Lake

An absolutely gorgeous campsite. Well stocked pond, full of fish. A beautiful view in all directions. Just so nice.

1 night at 4G Ranch at Tipps Lake

We had a wonderful time- caught a couple of bluegills in the pond. We enjoyed! Will be back as it was very peaceful!

Weekend Trip to The Lodges at Fossil Creek

Weekend Trip to The Lodges at Fossil Creek

Good communication from the host! Peaceful, relaxing location. No wifi in the rental RV, but pretty good cell coverage. I had some work to catch up on, but could use my phone as a hotspot and was still able to spend some time contemplating the jetski in the middle of the catch-and-release pond!

this is Paradise on Lake Texoma

27 sites · Lodging, Tents100 acres · Pottsboro, TX

Paradise on Lake Texoma (formerly Paradise Cove) is a beautiful, secluded commercial campground located in the "Big Mineral Arm'' of Lake Texoma. Built in the 80's by the Corps of Engineers, Paradise has been a mainstay of the lake for many years. Recently, the current management team are working to grow Paradise into something special. With a huge focus on community and culture, Paradise has tons of space for people to come together and enjoy the company and also areas to wander off and find a quiet lakeside spot to relax. You'll also be able to catch one of the best breathtaking sunsets on the lake! The wildlife we have on the property is amazing! I have deer that sleep in my front yard, opossums, 600 bird species, and my favorite… the armadillos! We offer Kayaking on the property for a fee. We have a beautiful Hammock Garden free for guests to kick back and relax. Texoma Water Taxi is a text away to give guests a ride anywhere on the lake including restaurants. Rock-N A Ranch is roughly 20 minutes away and offers horseback riding. The Cabins and Campsites are within walking distance from each other but far enough away to create that illusion of privacy. We do have a neighborhood close by but you can’t see or hear them due to the woods. In my travels, I try to bring back something I’ve seen or learned to help improve the guest experience and environment. You’ll notice little touches of Asia, Mexico, and even Hill Country Texas! We pride ourselves on our excellent customer service and treat every guest like family. We’re always a text away! You’ll see us out and about on our golf carts. If you ever need anything just holler (: Check-in time is at 3 pm. Our staff works really hard to make sure everything is perfect for your stay and we can’t guarantee it will be if you arrive before then. Parking, we work really hard to keep our property beautiful. Be sure to park in parking areas only.

4R Ranch Winery Campsite

141 sites · RVs, Tents1132 acres · Muenster, TX

Where the short-grass prairie drops into the Red River Valley, the 4R Ranch—with its magnificent vistas and rocky terrain—is perfectly suited for growing grapes. Patriarch W.C. Roper encouraged his family of sixth-generation Texans to share the beauty of this extraordinary place with others; and so it was love of this man and love of the land that inspired 4R Ranch Vineyards & Winery. Chinquapin oaks, white-tailed deer, the endangered black-capped vireo, and the occasional Rio Grande turkey inhabit this incredible property. Powered by sun, earth and wind, 4R Ranch Vineyards & Winery calls us all to slow our pace, enjoy the view, and sip a glass of wine in the magnificent Red River Valley.

Camp Tonkawa Woods & Horse Camp

8 sites · Lodging, Tents35 acres · Collinsville, TX

In the early 1900’s an iconic red barn was built near the hilltop along the road between the old Mt. Zion community and Collinsville. Later in the 1900’s, the land was mostly abandoned by its owners, but not by the local fishermen! They knew its woodland fishing pond never dried up, and so was able to support a better population of fish. They also dumped a cornucopia of old motorcycles, cars and farm equipment in the front field. What else were you supposed to do with scrap metal in North Texas horse country? In 2002 the Holtzman family purchased the 35 acre tract of land. They dug a front pond for swimming and paddling, buried the scrap metal (although occasional bits of history still work their way up!), restored and brought horses back to the barn, and began consulting with local biologists about supporting native wildlife. April Holtzman launched Camp Tonkawa Outdoor Learning Center on the property to provide a beautiful, safe place for families to explore and learn about nature. Camp Tonkawa continues to host overnight and day camps with educational programing organized around various themes including: Native American culture, nature awareness, basic camping skills, primitive survival, organic gardening, herbology, outdoor cooking, western days, and horsemanship. We also host field trips and frequently conduct Girl Scout journeys for all levels in the "It's Your Planet, Love it!" series. Due to Covid-19, which limited working with groups for our educational programing, we joined Hip Camp where families who could isolate in nature together on our property.

Fieldsong Farm

In 2013, we bought our 13 acres from a larger parcel of land that had been owned and farmed by the Snider family for 150 years. (Note that we live on Snider Lane). The Sniders played an important part in the development of our town, Lucas, and surrounding schools. The rest of the land has been sold to two families, and all three purchasers (that includes us!) are establishing small family farms. Hurray! Plus the Snider's old house and barn next door are being renovated by the new owners! Since 2013, we have brought in water and electricity to the land, built fences, a house and several barns. We have a flock of chickens, a bunch of loud, nosey Nubian dairy goats, 2 cats and 2 dogs. We farm organic vegetables, and have planted some fruit trees. We are committed to conservation of our land and the wildlife that call it home, and are working to restore our wildflower meadow (location of the campsite) to original prairie state. Come see us; we'd like to share it all with you! Learn more about this land: Come to Fieldsong Farm, absorb the peace and serenity, and leave refreshed!

Camping in Ray Roberts Lake State Park guide

Overview

About

Lush prairies and shaded woodlands fringe the shores of the mighty Ray Roberts Lake in this state park. Head to the lake to swim, boat, or stand-up paddleboard; try your luck fishing for crappie, catfish, and white bass; or perhaps beat the lake record for largemouth bass—currently at 15.18 pounds. Away from the water, the 20-mile Greenbelt Corridor stretches to Lake Lewisville, and has trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Campers can stay in the Johnson Branch (north shore) and Isle du Bois (south shore) campground sections of the park, and equestrian camping is also available.

Notable campgrounds

Best for fishing: Oak Point Campground (Johnson Branch) has 29 primitive tent sites just a short hike from the boat ramp and fish cleaning station.
Best for hikers: Dogwood Canyon (Johnson Branch) has 19 primitive tent-only campsites with chemical toilets and easy access to the DORBA trailhead.
Best for RVs: Quail Run Campground (Isle du Bois) has 38 sites with water and electric hookups, fire rings and grills, and picnic tables.

Tips for snagging a campsite

You can reserve campsites at all of the park’s campgrounds in advance via the Texas State Parks website.
Campsite reservations open five months in advance.
Campsites can book up as fast for summer and holiday weekends—book as early as possible, especially if you have a particular site in mind (such as those by the lake).

When to go

Ray Roberts State Park is open year-round, but the most popular time to visit is from late spring through early autumn. Average daytime temperatures are 95°F in summer, making this the ideal time for swimming and boat cruises. Peak fishing season for bass is in spring and summer, but you’ll catch crappie and catfish whenever you visit.

Know before you go

Ray Roberts State Park is located about 65 miles north of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex or about a 1-hour drive away. The park is split into nine units, three of which are developed—Johnson Branch, Isle du Bois, and the Greenbelt Corridor.
Along with RV, tent, and equestrian camping, you can anchor your houseboat at the Lake Ray Roberts Marina (Sangar Unit) or stay at the Lone Star Lodge (Jordan Unit).
Park entrance fees are required n addition to camping fees, and general entrance reservations can be made up to one month in advance.
Facilities in the park include restrooms, picnic areas and pavilions, fishing piers, fish washing stations, playgrounds, and designated swimming areas. You can purchase groceries and camping supplies in Pilot Point, a 15-minute drive from the Isle du Bois unit.
Some camping areas, trails, group pavilions, and restrooms in both the Johnson Branch and Isle du Bois units are accessible for wheelchairs.

Beautiful park with paved walking trails and natural bike/hiking trails thru a forest. You can watch the deer at your site or sit by the lake. The only thing missing are sewer hook-ups for RV’s at the site. There is a dump station available but you would need to drive to it every few days.

Consolidate your things into a bucket or small wagon because you have to walk a ways to set up camp. This is great because you even get away from your car, but if you bring a lot and don't have a way to haul it in, you'll have to make several trips to your car.

We love camping here! Some of the walk-in sites are quite a haul if you have a lot of gear so check the park map before you pick your site. Hawthorne area site #3 is perfect! Secluded but not too far from your car. Just enough distance to give you a more primitive feel but still have all your gear. This area is also right along the trail system so we were able to hop on our bikes and ride the loop through the park. Isle du Bois is our camping home away from home.

Isle du Bois Unit Campground

Great access to a public swim area (roped off). Trails are plentiful, but they are pretty sandy due to them being used as horse trails too.
