Stories from the community

2 nights at Myers Corner on the Brazos River

Hi, God bless you! If you are looking for a place to disconnect, that has a beautiful view and just a peaceful place to enjoy family time! This is the perfect place. Waking up to this view and the sound of birds and some cute cows and deers, it's was just truly amazing! Our youth group really enjoyed it. They got to experience God presence in a very special way🙌🏻🤍🏕 We definitely would love to come back🙏🏻

Weekend Trip to Sandy Bottoms River Company

Great place to stay. Super friendly staff. Clean and easy access to the river. Would love to stay here again, when we're back in the area.

6 nights at Friends In RV Spaces

Nice spot, good location, and friendly people. What more can you ask for? We’ll be back!

Weekend Trip to Hideout Ridge

An amazing campsite! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed. The grounds are beautifully maintained, with spacious, level sites that offer just the right mix of privacy and accessibility. The amenities are truly top-notch! Will definitely recommend and be back!

1 night at Creekside Brazos Rock Camp & Kayak

We love camping at this site, super private, beautiful, plus Sunshines' service is excellent, always very fast, affectionate, and attentive. The bathroom is always clean and in excellent condition. We will definitely return. I recommend it 100%.

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

Great beautiful spot for my impromptu get away this weekend! My campsite had a beautiful view of the river and a great spot to put up my hammock overlooking the river as well. I’ll definitely need to plan a trip back when the river goes down and the weather decides to behave! The owners are very friendly as well!

3 nights at Gypsy Moon Hideaway

We loved our stay. It was peaceful and Amy was great.

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

GREAT OUT OF THE WAY AND HIDDEN CAMPING ON THE BRAZOS! We pitched a tent in between lots of trees and on the river. Don’t expect it to be manicured. Decent showers and restrooms within walking distance- in a style that one would expect at a campground with this name Gypsy in it. Very relaxed campground . Very friendly Owners/ hosts.

2 nights at Sandy Bottoms River Company

Our time at this campsite was absolutely phenomenal. The owner of the location is an absolute joy to work with and was extremely attentive. Furthermore, the people nearby were tremendously, helpful, kind, and are a reminder that the human spirit can be so good. This camping trip involved my seven-year-old Nephew, who had never been away from home before. He enjoyed every single minute of each of the three days that we were there - I cannot express just how great a time this young little guy had. I picked this site because it was fairly close to home as I was afraid he would want to leave early, but it was difficult to get him to leave at all. I want to say a special, thank you to everyone that we met and interfaced with. Such a phenomenal team who were truly concerned that we had the best possible time we could. The stories that we have to share are only possible because of the amazing place and the people that run it - from the bottom of our hearts, thank you!! We can’t wait to visit again!!

Weekend Trip to 4G Ranch at Tipps Lake

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.

2 nights at 4G Ranch at Tipps Lake

An absolutely gorgeous campsite. Well stocked pond, full of fish. A beautiful view in all directions. Just so nice.

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.

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.
