Camping at this site offers a serene experience with plenty of privacy and natural beauty. Campers frequently enjoy the proximity to the creek and appreciate the peaceful surroundings, often undisturbed by other campers. The presence of animals like sheep and goats adds a charming touch to the visit. While most reviews are positive, a few mention minor inconveniences like noise from nearby roads and occasional flies.

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.

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.

Recently stayed for 2 nights here with my dog; I enjoyed it. Definitely seems to have a population of flies around, but very tolerable during my stay. Emory happened to swing by in the morning -- he was very nice. Got some great photos and videos of the land and animals.

Went for 3 nights and 2 day.! This place is amazing. The campsite is a great spot! To the north you have you campsite and easy access to creek. To the south you have wide open pasture and herd of Goats! My boys loved camping here. They enjoyed the hammocks we set up between perfectly placed trees. The fishing in the creek!. They caught several LG bass!. 20 minutes to Dinosaur Valley SP. There is a a water spicket available but we brought our own. They have a compost set up for restroom needs. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get away.

Clean, easy to access, camping under the trees was perfect. The toilet was easy to use and somehow had no odor. The trickle of the stream made the campsite perfectly peaceful. The camp host was accommodating and responsive. I plan to return

Note the additional per person fee. Great to be by river/stream. Pit toilet.

I cannot say enough good things about our stay here. The site and overall area were perfect. Our site had a good blend of shade and open space; the fire pit, picnic table, and outdoor toilet in great condition, and the ranch itself was big enough for my kids to go off and explore but not so big I had to worry about them getting lost. We had planty of quiet solitude but were still close to both Glen Rose and Stephenville. Emory is a great host and I would absolutely stay here again.

Good little private spot for a weekend getaway with just the essentials. With Dinosaur Valley State Park just a short drive away, this was a great choice for us. Will come back with a group next time!

River Rock Camp
I absolutely love this campsite and location. I love the solitude and privacy of it. I honestly saw one person for the last 7 miles before I got to camp and didn’t even have to meet the host. I came to camp to get away from people and to enjoy nature and that’s exactly what I was able to do. It was so beautiful with the creek and the fire pit and the trees. Everything was lovely. I would 100% return.

Awesome place to camp! My dog was free to roam around for a bit before clipping him back on the lead. On one of the free roaming occasions he got skunked! Nasty stuff. We had to leave a day early. Keep your eyes peeled.

Perfect camping spot for me and my wife. The sound coming from the stream was relaxing to hear when we slept. The morning visitors were the icing. Definitely coming back!

It was pretty easy to find with the specific directions given. The campsite was fenced in and private. We let the dogs off leash in the fenced in area and they loved exploring. Just be aware that if you take them down to the creek, there are a ton of burrs. We have two furry dogs and the burrs were everywhere on their coat. We loved the privacy. We never heard or saw the other campers. We would love to come back again some day.

Really awesome camping spot. We arrived with a 25ft travel trailer and did not have any issues finding and getting to the camp. The directions given by Emory were spot on. Cattle was not an issue. Remember to bring mosquito repellent we had our share of bites down by the creek.
Camp was secluded and access to the creek is close by. We took our four dogs and they had a blast roaming the creek. All and all place is great if you want an isolated experience while dry camping.
Thank you Emory for the warm welcome and we should be coming back hopefully soon!

This place was really great! Very peaceful and the drive in was beautiful. There's enough space at each spot to park a small fleet of airplanes. It is an active cow field and you share the field with them. They didn't come by until sunrise. It was really fun when they did. I think I counted 2 adults and like 6 little calves that I watched pass through my site twice. The first time they knocked something over and spooked, then they came back a little later. The creek is pretty and the trees provide lots of shade. By the time I left I told my GF it may be my new fave local spot. The spot is too big to get quality pics and I was by myself but it's fantastic. If you want peaceful then here ya go!

This is our favorite camp spot!!! We have booked here twice and will continue to come back. The private access to the river bed is unbeatable. Hearing the water, cows and coyotes is the epitome of camping. Beautiful views of the sky. We love to camp here then explore Dino Valley and Glen Rose during the day. About 20 mins from the park and its a beautiful drive.

Brookside Camp
Great camp site!! There is a 5 month wait to stay at Dinosaur Valley state park, at only 20 minutes away this is a great alternative to camp close by.
Everything needed to have a cozy fire and build some wonderful memories. Thanks for an amazing stay.

Brookside Camp
My family recently camped on Emory's land. We chose it for the privacy. We loved seeing the cows and sheep and we enjoyed fishing in the creek which was right by our campsite. I would highly recommend this site to others.

Emory was a great host. And went so far as to move our group to a different site more suitable for our needs.

This place was amazing! Perfect spot for camping and just being outside. There is a herding dog onsite but she is very courteous and stayed her distance. Very secluded, even though there is multiple camp sites there, there is still some privacy. Definitely would stay again!
