Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

We had an absolute blast at Pecans on the Paluxy! The campground is easy to find, well maintained, and Paul was very easy to get ahold of and responsive to all of our requests! Make sure you get the kayaks because the river is so much fun to explore! We fished, enjoyed a campfire under the stars, found some creek beds to walk into, and had a great family bonding time!

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

We loved Site 3! The site is large is space and quiet. The only thing we could partially hear was a generator from site 2 but that’s about it. The water was cool and clear. Although kayaks are available to rent, right in front of site 3 is very shallow and best for pool noodles and inflatable tubes. Water shoes are recommended but not required. My 3 year old had a blast jumping in the water. The water picket was extremely close to refill our jugs. My only concerns would be the ants and how to combat them next time. There were a lot of red ants and it made it tough to sit anywhere without worrying about my legs. We saw 2 snakes that didn’t bother us but definitely scared the girls. Hahah. Other than that, my family had a blast and we would definitely book again!

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

We loved this place! Very clean, peaceful and the river was perfect! The extra hammock is worth it. For the bird’s Fan, bring some food to put in bird’s feeder, you would be delight!

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

We had an amazing time - quick access to the river was awesome. The location is just far enough away to unplug, but close enough to the town for a quick supply run. Kayak fishing was a big plus. Property well maintained with lots of nice amenities. Paul was great - very accommodating with our schedule changes. No doubt that we'll be back.

Such a beautiful experience! My son is two and this was his second time camping. The first time was a fail, but this time was smooth sailing. The playground on site made the biggest difference for us. Thank you again!

1 night at Cross Timbers Glamping Company

Clean nice and lovely. The shower was amazing- great water pressure. Comfortable bed. Thank you for hosting us!

1 night at Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Our stay was very relaxing. It’s a beautiful location. We had a lot of fun in the river kayaking. This place is toddler friendly and our 3 year old played in the sand box, collected shells, spent time on swings, relaxed on the hammock etc. Overall we had an excellent stay. It’s also very close to restaurants.

Weekend Trip to Friends In RV Spaces

Extremely down the Earth folks and a nice getaway from the RV park bustle. The owners are helpful if a need arises during your stay. Ohhhhh…..and beautiful wild flowers this spring around the area….!

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

Weekend Trip to Trickle Creek Ranch

We loved staying on Gary’s property! It was the perfect weekend getaway. It was so peaceful and the animals were all so friendly and sweet. The property was easy to get to and easy to get in and out. Gary and Dee were wonderful as was everyone else on property we got to meet! We had some issues with our RV and had to use the restroom they have there which was clean and perfect! It is disguised as a cute little outhouse and was steps away from our camper. We visited the stockyards in Fort Worth while we were there which was just about 30 min away! Thank you so much for having us! We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

I’ve visited 3 times now. It is easily one of my favorite places I’ve ever camped. It’s easy to get to and close to town, but it still feels like you are secluded in nature. The fire pits, chairs, tent decks, and paved steps down to the river are so nice and convenient. Thank you for having me, I hope to come back again soon.

Loved this little spot. Very scenic, loved all the wild flowers. Very calm and quiet. The host was very friendly. Came by to say hi and was very accommodating. Great place, especially for the price. Would love to stay again!

Weekend Trip to Sandy Bottoms River Company

The SBRC crew were very generous to upgrade our stay to the RV so that we could sit right by the river, since the water conditions were too risky for tubing. They were there to greet us and get us situated and settled in when we arrived and went above and beyond accommodating my late booking. Cell reception is weak (its in the country) so messages sometimes take a few minutes to go thru. Everything was very well kept with all amenities provided for, and SBRC even went out of their way to set us up with a fishing pole and some firewood. The small local grocery up the road had everything that we needed saving us the trip into town. Sitting by the river enjoying the sunshine was paradise for us, and I really look forward to going back again soon.

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Cool spot! We were at site 4, well taken care of and the trees offer privacy from the other sites.

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Downtown Mineral Wells has over 100 historic buildings with boutiques, antique shops, and specialty stores, plus restaurants that offer patio dining and live music. Mineral Wells was named for and is still famous for its mineral waters. The town boomed as a health resort after 1885, when the Crazy Well was dug. The Crazy Water Bath House offers mineral baths and treatments inspired by the waters and nature. Three museums call Mineral Wells their home. The National Vietnam War Museum has dozens of silent memorials recognizing those who served their country in the Vietnam War. This museum exhibits a half-scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington, D.C., the Camp Holloway Memorial Wall, a Meditation Garden, and a Huey Helicopter. The Old Jail Museum is a growing complex of historic log cabins and frontier buildings that demonstrate life in the region’s 19th century. Local artifacts fill all of its buildings. The Little Rock Schoolhouse Museum, built in 1884, housed the first public school building in Mineral Wells, and is dedicated to the preservation of the historical memorabilia of the City of Mineral Wells. The W.K. Gordon Center for Industrial History preserves, documents, and researches the industrial history of Thurber, Texas, which was once a thriving coal mining company town of 10,000 people and now a ghost town. Thurber was located near the southern Palo Pinto County line. Visitors can see reconstructions of Thurber’s mercantile store, livery stable, the town bandstand, the 655-seat opera house, and the Snake Saloon, which once boasted one of the largest horseshoe-shaped bars in the United States.

Fossil collecting is allowed in designated areas only, and only surface collecting is allowed with small gardening tools at the park. Take a guided tour of Guest Ranch Exotic Game Hunting where you will see their different species of antelope, buffalo, deer, and sheep.

Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

5 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Glen Rose, TX

Pitch your tent or boondock your RV on the Paluxy River under giant pecan trees. Enjoy the scenic view of our beautiful river. Our private property is located near the historic square of glen rose but feels like you are miles away in the country. Have fun kayaking, swimming, fishing, or just sit back and enjoy the views. We have 5 different spacious sites to choose from. Most have a tree break area in-between for privacy. Or rent all 5 and have the entire property to yourself. Updated river photos will be posted on our Facebook page, or message me for updates. Unfortunately, I'm not able to control the river. It goes up and down depending on rain and temperatures. The river gets pretty low during July and August. Wheeler Branch Reservoir(only a few miles from camp) is a great spot to swim and fish when the river water levels are lower. Very small lake that is good for swimming and kayaking with a dock, clear waters. We have 5 different sites. All of them overlook the Paluxy River, have rock fire pits, seating areas, patios, and stairs down to riverbed. You will have access to one of the most beautiful parts of the Paluxy River. During drought conditions and high temperatures I always recommend keeping your head above water and avoiding stagnant areas in the river. In order to reserve a spot you must be 21 or over. This is not a extremely remote place where you can party and go crazy. We want everyone to be able to sit back, relax and enjoy the views. Site Big Pecan: This is the farthest site upriver and has one of the largest pecan trees I've ever seen. The trees provide great shade cover during the summer. This site has an awesome rock patio seating area with 2 wooden Adirondack chairs overlooking the river with stairs to provide easy access down into the water. It also has a rock firepit with 2 wooden Adirondack chairs on a rock patio. Also includes a kids sand box, and a picnic table with shade umbrella, and numerous extras available to rent. Site 1 Limestone ledge: Firepit seating area overlooking the river with 4 Adirondack chairs and a shade umbrella, separate rock patio closer to the water overlooking the river with 2 wooden rocking chairs, stairs down to riverbed, huge pecan trees, kids play set with sand box, 1 picnic table, shade umbrella, and a 10' x 10' raised tent deck platform overlooking the river. Site 2: Firepit seating area overlooking limestone riverbed with 3 Adirondack chairs, picnic table with a shade umbrella, 10' x 10' raised tent / deck platform, stairs down to riverbed and shallow area of the river for kids to play. Awesome view of the river with trees / shrubs on each side for privacy. Site 3: Firepit seating area overlooking the riverbed, 2 wooden Adirondack chairs, 2 picnic tables, 1 shade umbrella, 2 sets of rock stairs to the riverbed, shallow area of the river for kids to play. Awesome view of the river with trees / shrubs on each side for privacy. Site 4 Farthest site downstream. Nice rock patio overlooking the river with two wooden rocking chairs. Easy access for RVs and trailers. Rock stairs to the river for easy access. Fire pit with rock patio around it with 4 wooden Adirondack chairs. Picnic table with shade umbrella. Kids sand box. Shallow areas for kids to play in the river. Deeper fishing hole about 100 feet down river. Great area to sit in the river with a lawn chair. Awesome view of the river with trees / shrubs on each side for privacy. A lot of people buy two sites for more privacy and room for larger groups. For example, many purchase Big Pecan and site 1 together. Or sites 2 and 3. kayaks, wood, outdoor games, frisbee golf baskets and disc, grill and utensils, propane firepit, and other extras available for rent. Please select those during checkout Tips: Bring river shoes, nose plugs, swimming essentials. Parts of the river can be very slippery. Bring life jackets, especially for children. Bring the essentials for any camping trip including: sunscreen, bug spray, anti-itch meds, etc. Chairs and sunshades to sit in the river are always popular. The Paluxy river ranges from just a few inches deep to 5 feet deep in our camping area. There are more swimming holes a little deeper up and downstream. Water is available at the entrance. No restroom - pack in, pack out. Bring your own potty and water. If you are not familiar with dry camping do some research. There are all types of methods for restrooms, heating, cooling, etc. available now to make it enjoyable. Dogs are allowed on leash. Please do not allow your dog to roam freely if they are aggressive in nature. Clean up after them. Cancellation Policy: You may cancel up to 3 days before your stay for a full refund.

Inez Spring Riverfront RV Resort

41 sites · RVs, Tents25 acres · Eastland, TX

* OUR 250,000 GALLON POOL OPENS 5/5/2023 * Owned by Sam & Dee Williams, Inez Spring Riverfront Park was originally envisioned and created as a family retreat. As the park began to take shape, the Williams' realized what a hidden gem it really is. The natural spring that feeds Joshua's pond was named after Sam's mother, Inez. The area around Eastland is rich with local history, including Captain Eastland and the black bean, Old Rip the horned toad, The Santa Clause bank robbery, Ringling Brothers' Circus, Bonnie & Clyde, etc. In addition the area is known to have had a significant prehistoric Native American population. In fact, Sam and Dee are curators of an impressive collection of artifacts found throughout the area. The park boasts 15 camp sites and a large number of picnic spots along the riverfront and near Joshua's Pond, for day use. The Williams Family carved out a trail system that takes hikers along the rim of rock outcrops, between the gaps of huge rock slabs, along the banks of the Leon River and through a heavy shaded canopy of red oak, pecan and cedar elm. There's even a small cave for the adventurous spelunker. Kayaking is popular on the river and kayaks can be rented on the property. Admission provides a full day of fishing, hiking, swimming, boating, picnicking, bicycling, etc. Guests can even stay overnight on primitive campsites, for an additional fee.

Fuller's Folly River Ranch

3 sites · Lodging350 acres · Weatherford, TX

Sundancer On The Brazos sits on Comanche Creek in an isolated forest on a 350 acre working cattle ranch with a quarter mile of river frontage! The Comanche were quite active up and down this part of the Brazos when the earliest settlers arrived around 1850, until the Comanches' eventual conquest by the Texas Rangers and their Colt pistols around 1870; we have found lots of flint and some arrowheads on high places here. Going further back in history, the Fuller's Folly River Ranch has an abundance of petrified wood, they say that if you have fossilized sea shells you were under water, but if you have petrified wood you had land creatures. Hunting for petrified wood is a fun adventure here. (But leave them for the next person to discover!) Weatherford is only 10 minutes away and Granbury is only 20 minutes away; both have great restaurants. And this close to Fort Worth (30min), you could actually commute and have a ranch to come home to at night--note the lower pricing mid week.
