BlackBerry Pines Disc & Camp is 27 acres of Piney woods. The property has a 20 hole Disc Golf course carved out of the woods. Very challenging and technical with Long and Short Turf tee pads. All baskets are Innova Discatchers. Come out and camp and play disc golf all day.
Property has lots of elevation that makes for great hikes. Couple miles down the road is Barefoot Bay Rv Resort & Marine. The town of Pittsburg is less than 10 miles away for all the normal items you may need (Grocery, Hardware store, CVS pharmacy, Brewery!!! 😉)

Very peaceful. Perfect for the kids. A beautiful downhill walk to the pond. The kids loved the floating dock. Love that it was dog friendly. Very relaxing. And the stargazing was out of the world. So many stars✨

Cody and Ingrid were very friendly. The property was lovely. I camped on site #1 which is by the pond. You get serenaded by frogs in the night which is pleasant. I only stayed one night, but wish I would have stayed another night since it was very relaxing especially during long driving trip.

Barefoot Gee’s is the hidden gem of the camping world. If you are like myself, you long for a full hookup camping spot all by yourself, nestled in the East Texas woods with nobody to share your perfect spot with. If so, then look no further. Linda is an awesome host and has a perfect spot for everyone to enjoy. I have found my spot and will be booking it as much as I can, so you better get there before I do.

Had a great time here! The area was spacious, camp fire and tire swing along with grill area in great locations. Host was super nice as well as her pup who my dog got along with and that's saying something because she likes her personal space. Her dog was a great watch dog of the area, showing my dog around the area and he spent time around my camp area which was nice. Great scenery and I would definitely stay here the next time I want to visit East Tx and go camping 😀

We had a great time. The site was nice with a big stone for ring and a soft bed if pine needles. The host, Linda, was very accommodating and responded quickly to communications and made the trip stress free.
We loved Porter the goat, Andy the big lovable dog and Molly the little friendly dog. Andy and Porter slept outside of our tent and it was adorable.
The location of pretty with some room to explore.
Highly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tent camping experience on Site #1 on Cody and Ingrid's land. The site itself was incredibly spacious and felt private. We especially loved the nearby pond, which was the perfect starting point for a beautiful trail that loops right back to the campsite. The clean and stylishly decorated bathroom was an excellent bonus! Thank you for a truly memorable and refreshing stay.

This was an amazing stay. Her property is wooded and you feel secluded. She took the time to show me around and find my spot. She is a very good host. I will be going back.

What a peaceful and well-equipped site! Host provided detailed instructions, and we received a warm welcome upon arrival. We stayed at Site 1 and enjoyed the pond in the morning and the fireflies in the evening. The grounds included a bathhouse complete with sink, toilet and shower (with hot water). Location is convenient to the Canton Fairgrounds (which is the purpose of our visit), and we found the site provided the extra benefit and contrast being in nature without the hustle and bustle of the festivities and crowds.

Quiet, woodsy, safe and serene! Andy, the owner’s German Shepherd, camped with me and is just the sweetest dog! Linda is a great host and helped resolve my battery pack issues by running power all the way down to my site so everything had power and full charge is restored to my battery pack and me! She has a beautiful spot with a fire pit all set up, plenty of chairs, 2 grills and an eating table and another small folding table too. The outhouse is charming! Great place-I’ll be back if I’m ever this way. Thanks Linda!

The property is absolutely stunning—beautiful views, peaceful surroundings, and a perfect escape into nature. Every corner felt like a hidden gem, from the scenic trails to the serene spots ideal for relaxing and taking it all in. What made the experience even better were the hosts. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and went out of their way to make sure everything was just right. You can really tell they care about their land and the people who visit it. I can’t wait to come back!

My family and I would absolutely recommend this place! The host was over-the-top accommodating and offered tons of activities for the kids. The campsites were well laid out with lots of trees, there was so much space for the kids to safely explore and for the dogs to roam. We did pay for the electricity option, and the ropes course for the kids. The outhouse was very clean.
