Weekend Trip to Sandhill Farms Tent Camping

Kevin’s land was perfect. I needed to get out of the city for a night and decompress somewhere private. Coming from the PNW this gave me a taste of home. Going in the spring it was lush and green, and we had a donkey, a horse, and a herd of cattle roaming where we set up. They were incredible hosts and showed us around the property and took us out to an oil rig down the road where we were able to walk back. If you’re looking for a place to call all your own, I would recommend it.

Weekend Trip to The Rock Pit

Beautiful camp spot, had the whole area to ourselves.

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

Such beautiful property, excellent host, fantastic experience!!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

Great location. Sites are secluded yet roomy. Would definitely recommend 5D for campers. If you stop in, say hello to Quigley!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

We had an amazing experience at this campsite! Our group consisted of two families with children ranging from 5 to 11 years old, and the ranch was the perfect size for them. The kids had a blast riding their bikes to the lake, fishing from the boats, and paddling around in the boats. The sunsets over the lake were absolutely stunning, and the overall vibe of the site was everything we hoped for. It felt like we were immersed in the forest, surrounded by trees, which made the experience even more magical. The site itself was spotless, and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the rural toilet near Site 12. It was equipped with toilet paper, a light with a sensor, and added a level of comfort we weren't expecting. Even the family dog was friendly and welcoming, which was a nice bonus! Julie’s family made the experience even more special. Everyone was incredibly kind, and we enjoyed chatting with them. Eddie, in particular, shared fascinating stories from his wonderfully adventurous life. We’re already looking forward to returning and exploring other sites! Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly camping experience.

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

This is our second trip to 5D ranch. We brought out a small group of kids to celebrate an 11th birthday. Julie was wonderful in introducing us to her horses. Campsite 22 was perfect for our needs. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

First solo camping trip and had a great experience. Not just a regular concrete pad with water and electricity but a true outdoor experience. It felt like I just drove into the forest and picked a spot. Well kept and the trails were beautiful. Easy directions and Julie was a pleasure to speak with. Will definitely be back

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

We had such a great time at 5D ranch! A great little hidden gem not far from College Station. We will definitely be back!

The views were beautiful, first morning I heard the rooster crowing and cows mooing, didn’t see either, enjoyed the meet n greet with the horses and ponies! Everyone was super helpful and respectful. The wind blowing in the tall pines and all the birds singing was delightful. Bonus seeing people bring their horses here to ride! Slept 9 hours one night and had a 3 hour nap one day. Just want I needed!! Will definitely be back!!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

The spot #1 was exactly how they described it,and Julie was very nice she went above and beyond making us feel comfortable.It was my wife and daughters first time tent camping and they both fell in love with it! Going to be back for sure! Also the fish was great caught a lot of bass and this place is perfect love it!

We stayed for the weekend in our teardrop camper. Spots are spread out enough that you feel fairly private but still can have a nice chat with your neighbors. We loved our stay!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

We had a wonderful time fishing, hiking and exploring. Many thanks to Julie and 5D Ranch for hosting us! The property and surrounding area is beautiful.

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

Me and my girlfriend spent the weekend at site 10 on the ranch. Had an amazing time! Camp was quiet and so were the neighbors. Julie was so helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed meeting the animals! Trust me, it’s worth it. Something about combing a horses mane hahahaha. Stars, lake and quigley the dog were all amazing experiences. Can’t wait for our next weekend there!

Weekend Trip to The Rock Pit

This place is fantastic. Being able to camp off the water is a relaxing escape from city life.

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

Host was very communicative and help with all my questions before booking. Tent site was easy to access and had plenty of room

Campsite #24 was private and surrounded by trees! The campsites are well spaced out and we never heard or saw anyone else while in camp. Everyone had a wonderful time. I would certainly recommend 5D Ranch to anyone

1 night at Cummins Cozy Corral

Beautiful property with such gracious hosts and awesome amenities for the price.

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

We had a great couple of days at 5D Ranch. Julie was very responsive and flexible with our changing plans, suggesting camp sites which would suit our needs. There was lots of privacy and the kids loved the lake and paddle boats. I’d certainly return in the future.

Glamm Camping

We have always enjoyed camping, scuba diving and travel... anything outdoors. We made a promise that If ever given the chance to share that joy with others we would and make it a great experience. We searched and searched looked at a lot of properties North of the Woodlands, to build our home. On a Saturday morning, my husband told me about a dream of 3 very tall and Magnificent Trees, soaring way up in the sky. A few days later we were walking through the forest looking at a 20 acre tract of land for sale with our realtor, I'm thinking, "oh how would we ever get this cleared, this is a lot of work" Then, up ahead was a clearing and right in the middle were 3 of the tallest, most magnificent Cedar trees. They were perfectly planted standing side by side. We both looked at each other and said," Oh this must be it". The rest is history. We purchased the land in 2015 and sold our home in The Woodlands in 2016... and began to build our dream.Learn more about this land:Perfect for outdoor weddings or reunions.

The Rock Pit

10 sites · RVs, Tents100 acres · Groveton, TX

Learn more about this land: The Rock Pit is a 5 acre swimming hole located in Trinity County that has been there over 50 years. Long ago they had dug out an area on a hill for rock on the dirt roads, and hit and underground water table. There are no fish in the Rock Pit, as the pH is 4.5, so no fish will live in it. I recall swimming there as a small boy, and wanted to share my memories with others. Depth ranges all over, but the deep end is around 15 feet. I have 5 kayaks currently, but bring yours if you have them, along with your vests. There is fishing in Lake Livingston, my place is north of it. There is access to Lake Livingston via White Rock Creek. A public boat ramp in on Highway 94, just outside Trinity. Or you can go back towards Trinity, to highway 357 and go to a ramp closer to the big lake. Tall pine tress, a few Oaks, and maple trees surround the place. Bring your mosquito repellant, as you are in the country! The place is raw right now, but I am planning improvements such as a few A frame cabins, a showering area and so on. So many things to do!
