Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

I loved camping at Paul's!! I camped in a tent at Site 3 with three of my friends! You could see and hear other folks through the trees, along with the busy road all night, but it was totally worth it for the proximity to the river. There are two beautiful staircases down to the river, both have landings halfway to rest or just to look at the river. The steps go to a limestone landing a few inches under the water that was visible and smooth, which made getting into the river so much safer and easier for us!! It was clean and obviously taken care of. We loved the geode firepit!! We'll be visiting again if possible!

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Loved it awesome place our family was really excited and happy about everything

1 night at Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Nice scenery good vibes and very clean not too far from any stores

2 nights at Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

It’s a lovely relaxing place to take your family. We all enjoyed our stay. We love the stairs to the river. The patio with chairs over looking the river was perfect to sit on and drink your coffee. The sand box and play ground was enjoyed by our kids. The fire pit just sets the mood. You get to have a nice campfire daily! We will be back!

4 nights at Little Off Lake House

What an awesome spot. We had a great time relaxing and unplugging at this cabin. My kids enjoyed fishing and swimming since the lake was high. Made good use of the diving board! We will definitely be back. Kellie was a great host. Made sure we had all we needed and even brought a pole set up for catfish for our kids to try out. They landed a 15lb catfish on his rod. Great memories!

1 night at Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

It was a beautiful property and really enjoyed the river.

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

This camp ground is in a great location: it is less than a mile from historic downtown Glen Rose and only about 5 miles from the State Park. I was able to ride my bike to the park and kayak down to my camp site (water level was high during my visit). Be advised, there is NO RESTROOM of any kind, not even a porta-potty, so prepare accordingly. Nice fire pit and chairs, good access to the water. There was no grate for cooking at my site, so prepare for that as well. Overall, the location outweighs the few negatives I mentioned. If you’re ok with dry camping, I would highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Second time back, and I brought two more friends and their family. They had such a good weekend. Thanks again

Weekend Trip to EcoRich Ranch

Always love coming out here and enjoying the river

Weekend Trip to Little Off Lake House

We loved our time here! The property is beautiful and exactly as what is advertised. My 11yr old had a blast fishing, jumping on the trampoline and seeing the longhorns and donkeys. It was very relaxing for us adults. Kellie is very responsive and we had everything we needed plus some. We will definitely come back again.

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Good spot on river, close to Dino valley, and in town if you need anything.

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

I enjoyed camping at Pecans on the Paluxy. The campsite was ample, clean and peaceful. Campsite number three included an elevated tent pad large enough for my 5-person tent. Further, the site was big enough for another rig and with room to spare. The entire campsite was well groomed, clear of debris and landscaped. At night, the site offered a quiet atmosphere to enjoy the sounds of nature and wildlife. Access to the river was through a paved path. Overall, the whole campsite experience was quite pleasant and truly enjoyable. This was one of the most pleasant camping weekends. Would recommend and camp there again.

Weekend Trip to Bee Mountain River Resort

Camping experience was great! The river level was high making it difficult to access the water, so the kids couldn’t splash around without an adult helping them get in and out, but other than that everything was fantastic!

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Great spot on the river and a great host! This is the second time we have camped here and already looking forward to our next trip there!

Weekend Trip to EcoRich Ranch

Beautiful land. We woke up to the sounds of sheep walking in the pasture behind our tent, SO CUTE. Felt very private, we couldn’t hear any other campers. Slight noise from the road, but cars were few and far between. The easy access creek provided my dogs a place to cool off and a cool fish watching spot.

Weekend Trip to Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

This was our second time camping at Pecans on the Paluxy and was equally as fun as the first. Paul's camp accommodations, campsite cleanliness, and easy river access for fishing make this one of our favorite places to stay less than an hour and a half from Dallas.

5 nights at Little Off Lake House

My family and I enjoyed everything on your property the house and the lake is beautiful. This was our 4th time visiting and will definitely be back again soon.

1 night at Pecans on the Paluxy - River Views

Pretty private and easy to get to. Water access is easy with a nice view and great rocking chairs.

2 nights at Country Woods Inn

The Santa Fe car is at the edge of a meadow and some woods, with a cluster of other accommodations ranging from campsites, airstreams and a cabin where a hostess cat lives who greets all the guests. She came knocking on our door and stayed with us, to our delight, throughout our stay. And there is no extra charge for vacation kitty! The train car is cleverly outfitted with all the comforts and everything you need for them: cooking pots and utensils, dinnerware, wine glasses and corkscrew. The hot water is steaming. The small refrigerator was plenty big enough for us and has a freezer shelf with two mini cube ice trays, but for larger groups consider bringing in some ice with you. The bunk beds are as steady as trees and so roomy under the canopy that only the very tall might have to bend to clear it. For us, it was like a small room. The mattresses are both soft and supportive. A town vendor said the car had been outfitted and adorned for the owner’s grandchildren, and we certainly benefitted from the thoughtfulness, playfulness and considerations that have been lovingly put into it. A small jar is offered for collecting fireflies darting outside. We gladly unplugged with no WiFi or tv signal there, when there were so many books, games and dvds for entertainment. Instead though we opted for star watching, deer spotting, and loving on the petting animals at the main hub. We plan to return often for the rest and rejuvenation we found easily in the woods by the river

Weekend Trip to EcoRich Ranch

Really enjoyed camping here, the campgrounds were great. Loved being able to have my dog off leash! The host stopped by shortly after we got there to say hi and ask if we had questions. He was super nice and helpful.

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.

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.

Best of all, you get to play on some of the finest water in Texas for boating, fishing and water sports. Adults and kids love it here because it’s a great place to hang out, to be active, and have some good old fashion fun. Our customers are usually groups of friends and family; many have camped here for years. A few even claim to have grown up on the river and, to some extent, that might be true. Bee Mountain River Resort is a secluded off-the-grid campground that's been around since the '70s. And it's pretty well known to the locals. I first discovered the Brazos River in 1985 looking for good water to ski on. Having developed many great memories camping here over the years, I would describe our ranch as classic and old school. Change comes pretty slow.....and we like it that way! Family, friends, kids and pets all love our amazing getaway. A rare gem best shared with good and friendly people. Each and every campsite is located directly on the river and all of them are huge. Firewood, ice, kayaks, paddleboards and generators are available at low prices. Great tasting water from our 500' deep well, clean restrooms and a camper dump station are located on premises. We are very pet friendly providing your pet is friendly.
