Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Burgers Lake Camping

I wasn't sure what to expect but was really happy. We got to the waterpark/campground around 5pm on a friday so the place wasn't too packed and they didn't charge us to use the pool that day. The staff, esspecially Sherwood who has big plans for the poace, were all super friendly, helpful and told us to pretty much camp anywhere that you could park. We had the whole place to ourselves that night and my boys and friends got to run around playing tag in the dark which they loved. The next morning we were able to pick out the best spots on the lake for the day and had a blast. Just know that apparently during the off season they let you make a campfire but during the pool season they don't. We were there the first week of season and they made an exception so if campfires are important, you might want to double check with them before hand. Other than that, I'd absolutely recomend camping here.

1 night at 4G Ranch at Tipps Lake

We had a wonderful time- caught a couple of bluegills in the pond. We enjoyed! Will be back as it was very peaceful!

2 nights at Sandy Bottoms River Company

We planned the trip expecting a thunderstorm for the whole 3 days, the first night it stormed everyone else left besides us. We had the whole place to ourselves and it didn’t even rain the other 2 days. It was so relaxing!! We even rented one of the paddle boats and enjoyed some fishing on the river!! Will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Hideout Ridge

The ground was gorgeous, the site itself was clean, level, and secluded. The hiking trails were great. The bath house was WONDERFUL.

Weekend Trip to Hopz n Skootz: Camping & Fishing

This is a beautiful piece of property and we really liked it. We had to cut our stay short by one night because of weather but this is a really special local. There are no hookups so come prepared.

Weekend Trip to Farm Tipi with Sauna

This place was amazing! Melissa met us as we pulled in. My two little ones immediately adored her. She was so nice and welcoming. I was honestly blown away with how secluded and “in the woods out in the middle of nowhere” it felt. The boys (6 and 3) and I haven’t done a real camping trip yet and I wanted to do kind of a trial run first. It honestly couldn’t have went better. They said it felt like we went through a portal! We had plenty of fire wood to roast marshmallows and hot dogs and the boys loved the teepee! Thank you again Melissa for such an amazing experience!

Weekend Trip to Camp Tonkawa Woods & Horse Camp

We had a great time on an overnight camping trip to this site. Ms April took our group of 4 adults and 4 children on an awesome horseback ride as well. The site had lots of ants due in part to the heavy rains we had prior to our stay.

Weekend Trip to DeerCreek Campground

The campsite was beautiful, very shaded and provided the peace and quiet I was looking.

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

This was a wonderful spot to camp! We stayed at the Foxhollow site, and it was perfectly shaded with lots of flat ground for tents. The river access with the little beach was perfectly shaded for a relaxing day in the water. A truly great getaway!

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

Gipsy Moon was a great place for tent camping! The folks there are friendly and helpful, and the sites are lovely and clean. Generally, the campground was quiet and peaceful. We had two five-year-olds with us and they loved swimming in the river and petting all of the goats! We’d recommend, for sure.

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

We had a great time. The owner was nice. We enjoyed the river and the campsite.

Weekend Trip to Burgers Lake Camping

I was there the day before they officially opened and there was only a high school graduating class there. Got to spend the afternoon enjoying this beautiful, spring fed lake, complete with slides, fountains, diving boards (of all heights), and snack bar (they make an awesome cheeseburger!). Once they cleared out, I had the place to myself. Owners were very accommodating. Even though they don’t really offer space with power, they found me a plug to charge my Jackery. They also offered tips on what not to miss at the Stockyards. The camping area is grassy, level and very shady with tons of large pecan trees that were planted by original owners. The facility was very clean, hosts were friendly and it is truly a magical place to stay! It’s only about 15 minutes from the Stockyards, so very convenient if you’re planning to visit there. I was just passing through, but would definitely love to come back sometime! I am a single female, traveling alone and felt extremely safe. Don’t forget to hit the artisan well to fill up your water jugs on the way out!

1 night at Hopz n Skootz: Camping & Fishing

I had an amazing experience at Sonja’s place! The views were stunning, and it felt like the perfect escape peaceful and relaxing, yet surprisingly close to Dallas. This was my first time camping and I went solo, so I was definitely feeling anxious, but the moment I arrived and met Sonja and her sweet daughter Olivia, I immediately felt safe and welcomed. Sonja went above and beyond to make sure everything was convenient and comfortable. She mowed the grass before I arrived and sprayed the bathroom for mosquitoes, which was a huge relief. The bathroom itself was stocked with everything I could possibly need bug sprays, fire starters, a lighter, batteries, OFF! spray, sanitizing wipes, and more. Honestly, I regretted stopping at Walmart for those items Sonja had it all covered! One of the highlights of my stay was getting to meet her baby goats they were so much fun to play with! And to top it all off, she even gifted me fresh eggs, which was such a kind and thoughtful touch. This was truly a special experience, and I’m already planning to come back hopefully next time with my husband. If you have kids, this is a very family friendly spot where you’ll feel safe, cared for, and have a great time. Highly, highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Hideout Ridge

The site was great on privacy, space, and cleanliness.

Weekend Trip to 4G Ranch at Tipps Lake

We loved it out there. It was beautiful and quiet. Will be returning.

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

This property is eclectic! They have plenty of sites to camp- all named accordingly, we stayed in Fox Hollow. It was such a cozy little site! There are restrooms and showers in the common area complete with goats and ducks! They have a water source and youre able to collect as needed. Amy has fire wood available and fruits and veggies! Don't forget the camp kitten!! I feel like people are permanent residents here-a tiny home community and you may need all wheel drive if it rains. We would go back for sure, I want to venture out again and stay at the site by the river. Everyone kept to themselves and it was so peaceful and quiet--nature sounds, goats and ducks...it was great!

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

This place is really family friendly—particularly for those that want to go camping but don’t want to do their business outside and want to shower. The animals are the best part imo. We got to pet the goats and even had some of the kids (goat babies) lay in our laps. The site is very clean and the local community is very friendly.

1 night at DeerCreek Campground

This is my second visit to John's campsite. I simply love the peacefulness of this site - lots of shade and a beautiful, calming waterfall. I love sleeping with that sound! The bathhouse is well-maintained! Clean, functional, and nature-friendly. I would camp here again and again!

Weekend Trip to Wild 2 Wonderful Ranch

We loved it. Rob and Eddie are great hosts and the place to camp is awesome and ver peaceful and quiet. We will definitely come back.

Weekend Trip to Sandy Bottoms River Company

It was clean it was close to the river everybody involved was very nice it was a very pleasant stay there were a lot of RVs but it was still decently quiet at night lots of deer in the morning everything was as promised will definitely be back when the river is not so high

Camp Tonkawa Woods & Horse Camp

8 sites · Lodging, Tents35 acres · Collinsville, TX

In the early 1900’s an iconic red barn was built near the hilltop along the road between the old Mt. Zion community and Collinsville. Later in the 1900’s, the land was mostly abandoned by its owners, but not by the local fishermen! They knew its woodland fishing pond never dried up, and so was able to support a better population of fish. They also dumped a cornucopia of old motorcycles, cars and farm equipment in the front field. What else were you supposed to do with scrap metal in North Texas horse country? In 2002 the Holtzman family purchased the 35 acre tract of land. They dug a front pond for swimming and paddling, buried the scrap metal (although occasional bits of history still work their way up!), restored and brought horses back to the barn, and began consulting with local biologists about supporting native wildlife. April Holtzman launched Camp Tonkawa Outdoor Learning Center on the property to provide a beautiful, safe place for families to explore and learn about nature. Camp Tonkawa continues to host overnight and day camps with educational programing organized around various themes including: Native American culture, nature awareness, basic camping skills, primitive survival, organic gardening, herbology, outdoor cooking, western days, and horsemanship. We also host field trips and frequently conduct Girl Scout journeys for all levels in the "It's Your Planet, Love it!" series. Due to Covid-19, which limited working with groups for our educational programing, we joined Hip Camp where families who could isolate in nature together on our property.

Camping near Watauga guide

Overview

Epic bouldering challenges, prime Texas camping, and a taste of prehistoric times are just a short drive from the Fort Worth suburb of Watauga. About 55 miles to the west, Lake Mineral Wells State Park invites campers to canoe and kayak in rentals on the 640-acre lake, cast a line for catfish and crappie from the six fishing piers, or head to Penitentiary Hollow for natural rock climbing. The park also offers spacious RV sites with amenities like 50-amp electrical hookups, picnic tables, fire rings, restrooms, and shower buildings. For a more remote experience, try a hike-in tent site surrounded by blackjack oak and Texas ash trees. About 70 miles southwest of Watauga, Dinosaur Valley State Park beckons with prehistoric allure. Seek out dinosaur tracks along the Paluxy Riverbed, or go horseback riding around the semi-rocky terrain of the South Primitive Area. Secure a back-in RV site with full hookups, or rent a private cabin outside of the park and enjoy a full kitchen, sleeping loft, and climate control.
