Lake Livingston is a large 23+ mile lake. We bought the property in 2014 and did upgrades on weekends, love the views, fishing, campfires, and meeting people so we opened the first cabin in April of 2018, now have 5 cabins and 9 rv sites and welcome you to enjoy the lake as much as we do. Every season of the year is a little different and all are wonderful! We are in nature, and across street from wetlands, yet only 2 miles from city grocery store and restaurants!

Welcome to your romantic glamping escape on 55 private acres, just moments from Sam Rayburn Lake. Our restored vintage camper is designed for couples seeking peace, privacy, and a little adventure. Tucked beneath towering pines and surrounded by Angelina National Forest, it’s the perfect place to reconnect and slow life down.
Anglers will love being this close to one of the best bass lakes in the country. Powell Park Marina is only five minutes away, offering easy boat launches, rentals, fuel, and supplies—so you can start your morning on the water chasing trophy bass and end it by the fire with someone special.
The property itself feels like your own nature sanctuary. Deer wander through the woods, birds greet you at sunrise, and quiet trails weave through the forest just steps from your door. At the heart of the land is a beautiful six-acre pond with an island in the center, reached by charming wooden bridges.
It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee, reading together, fishing, or capturing unforgettable photos. Currently, we have two resident bald eagles who have made a nest at the top of a pine tree next to our pond. We're not sure how long they'll stay, but if you come soon, you may get a glimpse of them soaring overhead as you relax by the water.
For couples craving a unique experience, local outfitters offer guided horseback rides through the national forest—an intimate, scenic way to explore the beauty of East Texas.
When night falls, the real show begins. With no city lights around, the sky explodes with stars. Lay back, listen to the sounds of the forest, spot constellations, and watch shooting stars drift overhead. It’s the kind of stargazing you’ll remember forever.
Your vintage camper provides the comforts you need while keeping you close to nature—ideal for romantic nights, peaceful mornings, and everything in between. Expect serenity, simplicity, and space to breathe.
Whether you’re here to fish, explore, or simply disappear into the woods for a while, our property offers a one-of-a-kind retreat for two at Sam Rayburn Lake.

Good spot for a quick night. Across the street from a camper in a very wooded spot. We made a fire and pitched a tent in a small clearing.

The cabin was very clean. We loved that it came stocked with anything needed in a kitchen (pots, pans, cutlery, paper towels, etc.) The pool was awesome and it is so nice that they have a restaurant on site. My family of 4 and our 2 dogs had a great time here and we will be back.

It’s a very nice new place with a great pool and lake views. It’s a very big park and we were there in a Class C on a slow weekend. It had a very nice kids playground and a venue for a live band or performance that was near the pool. We had an afternoon snack at the Restaurant that was good. It’s very much a bar type food restaurant. The water and ice tea had an odd taste like the water softener put too much salt in it. The wait staff was friendly and efficient. There was a pool swim up bar that was staffed from the inside restaurant bar, but it was a light weekend as the park and pool were not very busy. The RV sites were long and plenty wide. I was in a section with only 3 RV’s near by and the pedestal voltage was only 111 volts on the 30a circuit. While sufficient for my stay could be a problem if they were very full in the heat of summer. The Dumpster was in the far corner of the park which is large. They could probably use a bit more lighting through out. I had to use a flash light to get to the dumpster at night.
We will definitely be back. Next time in our Class A to test out the 50a service.
It might be interesting to see if the pool or restaurant can handle the capacity if the park was full. There are a lot of sites

This was an absolute perfect little getaway. We chose the rustic tent area and pitched ours in a quiet little spot. We were a little late getting started from home and did not arrive until after the office was closed but I called and the office staff laid out very clear instructions on what I needed to do upon arrival to ensure we were all checked in. Amazing prices for both camping and the kayak rentals and an awesome staff that went above and beyond the ensure that we enjoyed our stay. We’ve already been chatting about our next visit to the area and are 100% looking at rebooking at this location.

There were a few minor hiccups due to the age (2 mos.) of the establishment. The amenities were clean and organized. Unfortunately, the arcade was not up and running yet, but I'm sure will be nice as well. The pool and swim up bar were a great way to beat the heat and the on-site restaurant was really good!

Nice rv resort, it’s a patch of grass to set up a tent with a fire pit. Tent sites are close together, but it wasn’t busy. Very friendly staff.

Our hosts took extra time to ensure we got the perfect camping spot, and it really paid off! We caught fish in both ponds and enjoyed serenades from the local amphibious choir. The hosts are very knowledgeable about ecologically sensitive areas and marked multiple points of interest that helped guide our exploration. Thanks to these two great land stewards! Shout-out to Pluto, our camping companion.

We had an amazing time at Hilleetla! Alissa and David are wonderful hosts with a beautiful property, and their friendly dogs love joining you on little adventures.
The location is peaceful and quiet, making it a great place to disconnect and take in the sounds of nature. At night, the stargazing is incredible—you can see countless stars on a clear evening. We stayed for two nights, and the weather was perfect with very few mosquitoes.
The property itself offers diverse terrain and rich biodiversity, making it a great spot for exploring. The amenities were well thought out, including a composting toilet, shower, and convenient water spigots throughout the site.
Overall, it’s a fantastic spot to relax and enjoy the outdoors. We’d definitely recommend it!

I normally stay in the NF except during hunting season. This was a last minute trip. The property is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. I was the only one staying. The owner Alissa was quick to contact me with information and we were able to meet when I arrived. I booked for two nights but only stayed one and it was awesome. I stayed near the pond located in the back of the property. Two of her dogs hung out with me until I went to bed then came back and had coffee with me the next morning, lol. Would definitely recommend staying.
