Our homestead is a few acres in East Texas, near Hawkins. The land has been untouched for about 30 years, maybe last used for cattle grazing. We're keeping the property as natural as possible, we live here off-grid and off-pipe. There’s a 17 acre lake that we share with neighbors. It’s full of bass, bluegill, crappie and catfish, we encourage catch and keep fishing since the lake could use a little fishing pressure. We also have a beaver pond, and resident beaver. Some of the wildlife we see regularly: fireflies, turtles, cardinals, bluejays, hummingbirds, kite birds, frogs, opossums, armadillos, beaver, river otter, road runners and rabbits. These plants live here too: Beautyberry, Dewberry, Pokeberry, Sparkleberry, Dogfennel, Dogwood, Yaupon Holly, Holly, Wax Myrtle, Sassafras , Lyreleaf Sage, Carolina Crane’s bill, Coral Honeysuckle, Western White Honeysuckle, Smooth Cat’s Ear, Daisy Fleabane, Prairie Onion, Mullein, Summer Grape, Water Lily.

Camping near Sulphur Springs guide

Overview

Midway between Dallas and Texarkana, Sulphur Springs has some unusual claims to fame—including one of the region’s most popular farmer’s markets and their one-way mirrored public restrooms. Once you’ve explored the bustling downtown markets and picked up some picnic supplies, head out to Cooper Lake State Park to hike, bike, or horseback ride along the shores of Jim Chapman Lake. Campers have options in the park, with RV, tent, and equestrian sites, all close to the lakeside, where you can swim, fish, and kayak. If you prefer to stay in town, there are also RV parks in Sulphur Springs.

Where to go

Southern Lakes

South of Sulphur Springs, RV parks and lakeside camping grounds pepper the vast shores of Lake Fork and Lake Tawakoni. Explore the fishing coves around Lake Fork or set sail to fish for largemouth bass—some of Texas’ largest catches have been hooked here. To the West, Lake Tawakoni State Park has woodland hikes and a sandy swimming beach on the lake’s south shore.

East Dallas

More lakeside camping is on offer along the eastern boundaries of Dallas, with plenty of choice around Lake Lavon and Lake Ray Hubbard. Both lakes are popular boating and fishing spots, but you can also rent kayaks and stand-up paddleboards, or tee off at a lake-view golf course. If you’re tempted to get closer to the city, Lake Lewisville has seven campgrounds just a short hop from downtown.

Northeast Pineywoods

Sulphur Springs is a strategic basecamp for exploring the Texas Piney Woods, where traditional Southern towns meet rambling woodlands and gleaming lakes. Dive into Civil War history in Jefferson, then head out to camp by Lake Caddo. Or continue south to enjoy backcountry camping in the Davy Crockett, Angelina, and Sabine National Forests.

When to go

May through September is the most popular time to visit Sulphur Springs, when the town hosts several festivals, markets, and an open-air movie theater in its central square. Texan summers are hot, so RV camping might be a more comfortable option, but you can always escape to the nearby lakes to cool off. Camping is possible year-round in Cooper Lake State Park, but spring and fall provide the most pleasant weather for hiking and outdoor activities.

Know before you go

You’ll need your own transportation to get around Sulphur Springs.
