Come stay on our 100 acre Richard Creek Valley getaway, gently tucked away on the north slope. There are four campsites on the property and they are all at least 150 yards away from each other. Each site is private. When the ground is dry there is access for all vehicles. When the ground is muddy, Brookside, RiverRock, and Richardson Creek campsites require a 4-wheel drive and have alternate routes to get to them. Ancient Oaks is an all-weather site. You can enjoy hiking and swimming in Richardson Creek when water levels permit. Canoeing from Bakers Crossing put-in which is only 3 miles away.
Some places to check out while you are here include Dinosaur Valley State Park, Dinosaur World, Granbury Historic Square, Stephenville Rodeo, Bakers Crossing River Put-In, Oakdale Plunge Pool, and BigRocks Park in Glen Rose.
Please no loud noises after 9:00 pm as this is quiet time, out of respect for other campers.

Please look at photos on property and read this description. I look forward to meeting you😊
Granbury Wine Walk and Winter Wine Walk in the Historic Granbury Square. Walking through the park and the square is just magical at Christmastime. Easy Like a Sunday Morning is nestled just outside the city limits of Granbury, Texas (approximately 3 miles from Granbury Historic square) @ a private residence just outside the city limits. New laundry facility down the road, dump station @ Thorp Springs RV park (20 dollars), Davids Grocery store and Dollar General, all only .03 miles away. This is not really a vacation destination but more a safe place to stay coming to town to explore all Granbury has to offer or a place to catch your breathe while traveling on the road.
Friends have enjoyed escaping here for years. I decided to share the zen. It's a bit rough around the edges but if the new venture succeeds it will only get better each time you visit. Patio with a view of Lake Granbury and surrounding valley of at least 3 counties.
Communal:
Bonfire area when there isn't a burn ban (bring your chair). Also small fire pit on patio.
Games- cornhole
Water available ( water hose)
No sewer , Trash cans on site

Serenity Cabin + Set A Tent Outside
6. Serenity Cabin + Set A Tent Outside
32mi from Lake Whitney State Park · 1 site
Cabin with a full kitchen, washer/dryer combo, bathroom with shower, and a queen bed in the first-floor bedroom. The upstairs loft/kids’ play area has a twin and a double mattress on the floor.
There’s a small TV room/sitting area, an outdoor deck with a small patio table, and a private yard area with a fire pit, picnic table, and charcoal grill (bring charcoal and starter). You can even set up a tent in the yard — best of both worlds!
We sit on 3.5 acres with trails to explore. The property is fenced in, so you won’t accidentally wander off. When we moved here three years ago, the trails were very rough; we’ve been slowly improving them.
They’re by no means spectacular, but they’re fun — especially for kids looking for rabbits, roadrunners, toads, deer, and who knows what else. There are no creeks, ponds, or other water features, just good old dirt!

Weekend Trip to The Hideaway Ranch and Refuge
This was an amazing place to stay! The animals were a little ilusive however it was a lot of fun hiking on their trails, which were very well maintained, to try and find them. We ended up seeing a llama and horses not to mention the beautiful Texas hill country sunset. They have incredible views here and get bonus points for their easy checkout process and sustainability efforts.

Magnificent place! Secluded and quiet. Lots of trails to walk and find interesting things. Don’t be like me and forget to bring food and a way to cook it if there’s a burn ban because the stores are not exactly a 5 minute trip. We will be back without a doubt!

We stayed here for two days during Spring Break. It's a nice campsite with plenty of grassy area for the boys to throw the football. Good tree shade for all of the sites, with a very short few steps down to the water. Too cold to swim for us, unfortunately. We fell asleep each night to the sound of the lake waves - so peaceful! There is a water spigot between every couple sites to share and the bathrooms are not a super close walk from the sites, but definitely walkable. We were unable to get hot water in the showers (cold showers are brrrrrr bad). The park personnel make frequent quiet sweeps through the campsites in their trucks, but we never noticed any problems at all. Everyone was very chill and happy to be there. Recommend!

The park is ok. The trails are not very good. The camp spots are good. The thing no one tells you is the "cliff jumping" is not at the state park but rather around the dam area! So keep that in mind for our visit
