Greetings from Hilleetla! This beautiful property with big rolling hills, big trees, spring water, creeks and lakes lies deep within the Big Thicket, behind the Pine Curtain. Originally a dairy farm, with the old barn and milk bottles intact, then a miniature pony farm with a miniature stable to match, and later a vacation home for some quasi-urbanites. Now our home, our muse, and our place of refuge. A place to share with friends and family and those seeking an authentic experience, here, on the ground. A working farm, a plant nursery, a garden, our forest farm, and our center for creativity, love, life and design. As a landscape architect (Alissa), designer and horticulturalist (David), we've found our match here, at what we now call Hilleetla. Join us on a Full Moon or New Moon (Star Gazing!) and get 15% off!

A Quiet Escape Arriving at the charming cottage, you’ll immediately feel the pull of nature, inviting you to leave the bustle of modern life behind. This cozy retreat for two offers everything you need to disconnect. Set in peaceful surroundings, the cottage boasts a kitchenette with an induction stove and a medium fridge, while a BBQ grill and pond with a fountain complete the tranquility. The surrounding woods offer nature walks, stargazing, and a seasonal pool, ideal for unwinding. Policy details, such as a minimum 2-night stay and no pets, will be shared after arrival. Inside, the cottage is simple and comforting—clean lines, soft light, and everything you need for unrushed days. The kitchenette is made for ease: an induction two burner hot plate for a skillet breakfast, a microwave for quick warm-ups, and a medium fridge with a freezer to stash your groceries. When you arrive, you’ll find a few bare essentials waiting—enough to settle in before a short drive into Jasper for a proper shop at Walmart or Brookshire Brothers. Bring the foods you love; cook at your pace; let mealtime be part of the ritual. Step outside and the property opens around you. The pond shimmers with a fountain, and if you bring a line, the catch and release fishing is a quiet joy. In season, the swimming pool cools the afternoons, and the nature trails thread through the pines in that soft, resin-scented way the woods have. There’s chopped wood by the BBQ grill for slow, smoky dinners, and a communal fireplace area where conversations stretch and stars feel closer than they did in the city. If you want more than rest, there’s learning and craft woven into the stay. By the creek, hammock slow and water quiet, a massage can loosen what travel or life has tensed. You can sink your hands into clay in a pottery session

The best camping in Village Creek State Park, TX guide

Overview

About

Set at the edge of Big Thicket, the park is home to Village Creek, one of the few free-flowing creeks in Texas and a popular spot for flat-water canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing. Hike or mountain bike eight miles of trails, including some suitable for young kids and others that cut through a diverse terrain of swamps, wetlands, forests, and savannahs. Overnight options include primitive walk-in campsites, campsites with electric and water hookups, a group campsite, and a cabin. Don’t miss the excellent nature center and its ranger-led programs that include night hikes and stargazing. 

Notable campgrounds

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. For peak season stays, plan to make a reservation as soon as you know your dates. The cabin and campsites can be reserved up to five months in advance and the group camp up to 12 months in advance. 
  2. If your plans are flexible, try to visit the year-round park during the week, during non-holiday periods, or in winter to escape the crowds.
  3. If you don’t have a reservation, arrive at the park first thing in the morning to grab any potential unreserved site.

When to go

The park is busiest from February to September—spring and fall are the best times to see migratory birds. Heavy rains can cause the Village Creek to severely flood, something that regularly occurs every few years.

Know before you go

  • The park is part of the Village Creek Paddling Trail. Bring your own canoe or kayak, or rent from local outfitters and guide services. 
  • Fishing licenses are not required to fish from shore.
  • Neither glass nor pets are permitted in the canoe launch and fishing area, where kids must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
  • The cabin, group picnic pavilion, and several campsites, showers, and restrooms at the Hilltop Campground are wheelchair-accessible.
  • Bring your binoculars. The park is home to more than 200 bird species—and alligators.
  • Fires are only permitted in provided fire rings. Bring your firewood or purchase from the park.
