77 RV Sites

Possum Kingdom RV Resort in Graford, Texas, offers 77 full-hookup RV sites directly on the lake, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 76 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout.

Seventy-seven sites span standard back-in, long back-in, premium back-in, waterfront back-in, and pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 76 feet. The Long back-in tier is a straightforward answer for oversized rigs, and 76 feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. The waterfront category is the one to request.

Aledo Acres RV Park

73 RV Sites

Aledo Acres RV Park in Aledo, Texas, is a gated adult-only community offering 73 full-hookup back-in sites on concrete pads under mature shade trees, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet. Twenty miles west of Fort Worth, it serves winter Texans, year-round residents, and long-haul travelers wanting distance from Metroplex density. Seventy-three back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 75 feet, on level concrete pads — which eliminates the annual re-leveling that gravel and grass sites require, a real advantage for long-term stays. Site WiFi reaches the property, and a gated entrance controls access. The community format shapes the experience. A clubhouse anchors the social side, walking trails run the grounds, and a dog park serves pets. The adult-only policy creates the quieter, considerate environment that guests choosing a community park over a transient campground are specifically after, and the mature shade trees make a genuine difference through a North Texas summer. Pets are welcome. Aledo sits in Parker County in the pastoral horse country west of Fort Worth, which gives the park its rural character while keeping the full DFW metropolitan infrastructure within reach. A golf course and lake are nearby, with boating close by. The park operates year-round, with the winter months drawing the heaviest seasonal demand as Texans and northern snowbirds settle in for extended stays. Long-term and seasonal bookings carry much of the inventory, so availability for short stays can be limited — call ahead rather than counting on a space, particularly between November and March.

23 RV Sites

A resort-style outdoor pool anchors the grounds, with picnicking and genuinely dark north-central Texas sky for stargazing. The property also hosts weddings. Ranger sits in the Palo Pinto Mountain country of north-central Texas, with a lake, boating, a national park unit, and wine tasting all within reach.

Inez Spring Riverfront RV Park

On 24 acres along the Leon River just off Interstate 20 at Exit 343 in Eastland, Texas—in Eastland County on the rolling Cross Timbers landscape where the Leon River's spring-fed tributaries create the swimming holes, fishing access, and wooded riverside environment that the I-20 corridor between Fort Worth and Abilene has lacked in a quality campground until Inez Spring provided it—Inez Spring Riverfront RV Park offers 79 spacious RV sites including premium pull-through and cliff-side positions with full hookups and 30 and 50-amp service on big rig-friendly level gravel pads, 10 tent sites with picnic tables and fire rings near the spring-fed pool and the riverfront, a 250,000-gallon spring-fed pool open Memorial Day through Labor Day, direct Leon River access for kayaking and fishing, shaded picnic areas with BBQ grills, hiking trails, and wildlife viewing in a riverside park whose combination of spring pool and live river access makes it the most genuinely refreshing overnight on the I-20 Cross Timbers corridor. The spring-fed pool is 250,000 gallons. The river is at your doorstep. All 79 RV sites are full hookup with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer on level gravel pads—premium pull-through sites accommodate 40-foot coaches, and cliff-side positions provide the elevated Leon River view that the limestone bluff topography creates. The 10 tent sites, including three riverfront positions and eight near the spring-fed pool, provide the non-RV camping alternative with picnic tables, chairs, and fire rings at each site. The 250,000-gallon spring-fed pool—the park's centerpiece amenity—provides the cold, clear swimming that the Texas summer demands in a managed pool environment whose spring water source maintains temperatures that no outdoor pool heated by summer sun can replicate. The Leon River's kayaking and fishing access, the shaded picnic areas with BBQ grills, the hiking trails through the riverside woodland, and the wildlife viewing that the 24-acre property's riparian corridor enables extend the daily activity inventory beyond the pool and the hookup pad. Eastland sits in Eastland County on the Cross Timbers ecoregion's eastern edge, in the post oak, blackjack oak, and cedar landscape that transitions between the eastern Piney Woods and the western Palo Pinto and Callahan Divide's more open terrain. The Leon River drains the Callahan Divide's limestone watershed through Eastland County on its way to Proctor Lake—the Army Corps of Engineers impoundment on the Leon's lower reach provides the lake fishing and boating alternative that supplements the riverfront park's moving-water recreation. Cisco, 10 miles west on I-20, provides the daily service infrastructure and the Cisco Lake recreation area whose small lake and park facilities serve the eastern Eastland County community. Abilene, 60 miles west, offers the regional urban experience with the Frontier Texas living history museum, the Grace Museum's art and history collection, and the Abilene State Park's buffalo pasture and frontier recreation area. The Palo Pinto Mountains State Park, southeast of Strawn, will add to the regional recreation inventory when its development is complete. Inez Spring Riverfront RV Park operates year-round with the spring-fed pool operating Memorial Day through Labor Day in Eastland County's warm temperate climate. The spring and fall months provide the most comfortable conditions for the riverside hiking and the Leon River kayaking that the pool-season summer crowds thin during the shoulder period's quieter weeks. The winter months bring the migratory waterfowl to the Leon River corridor in the duck populations that east-central Texas river systems host from November through February. Reserve your site at Inez Spring and let the I-20 Exit 343 turnoff, the 250,000-gallon spring pool, and the Leon River's Cross Timbers riparian corridor deliver the riverside Texas overnight that the highway's billboard deserves.

Waterfront Hideaway Ranch

Waterfront Hideaway Ranch in Little Elm, Texas, offers full-hookup RV sites and cabins on 14 acres of open pasture, shaded groves, and direct Lewisville Lake frontage, behind a gated entrance and open all year. A beach, dog park, and community fire pit sit 35 miles from downtown Dallas — among the most accessible private lakefront camping in the DFW corridor. The ranch is explicitly LGBTIQA+ friendly. Full-hookup RV sites and cabin accommodations serve both RV travelers and guests without a rig. Laundry, restrooms, and WiFi handle the practical side, and a gated entrance controls access. The property is open year-round. The lake frontage is the draw. A beach gives direct shoreline access, and swimming, fishing, paddle boats, canoeing, kayaking, and water sports all run from the property. A community fire pit anchors the evenings, a dog park serves pets, and corn hole and planned activities fill the rest. The open pasture and shaded groves make for good birding and stargazing despite the metropolitan proximity, and boating and skiing are nearby. Pets are welcome. Little Elm sits on Lewisville Lake's north shore in Denton County. Downtown Dallas is 35 miles away and Frisco's entertainment and sports venues 15 — a combination of lakefront setting and metropolitan access that is increasingly rare as Denton County develops. Lewisville Lake's bass fishing, Little Elm Park's sandy beach, and the Lewisville Lake Environmental Learning Area's nature trails are all close. The ranch operates year-round in the North Texas climate. Summer lake recreation drives peak demand from the DFW market — reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends and holidays.

Shady Creek RV Park & Storage

207 RV Sites

Shady Creek RV Park & Storage in Aubrey, Texas, offers 207 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, behind a gated entrance.

Two hundred seven back-in sites run in deluxe, premium, and premium plus categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with picnic tables. The sites are notably large. A laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, RV storage, boat storage, and personal mailboxes handle the practical side — the mailboxes and storage point clearly at the long-stay residents the park also serves. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a fitness center, clubhouse, recreation center, and banquet room for the social side. A pond and creek run the property for fishing, with sports courts, basketball, walking trails, hiking, a playground, dog park, and community fire pit besides. Boating, a golf course, and a lake are nearby, with planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome.

Good Shepard RV Park

12 RV Sites

Good Shepard RV Park in Gunter, TX, offers 12 full-hookup pull-thru RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Every site is a short-term 20/30/50-amp standard pull-thru carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Each site takes all three amp services, so there's no adapter guesswork. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, propane fills and exchange, a dump station, and both RV and boat storage cover the practical side. On arrival, all guests and visitors check in at the main office and sign the park rules. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. The amenity list is unusually deep for 12 sites: an outdoor pool, a hot tub and sauna, a splash pad, a clubhouse, a pavilion, a playground, live music, and a lake and pond for fishing and boating. Gunter sits in Grayson County about 50 miles north of Dallas on the US-75 corridor, where the blackland prairie runs toward the Red River. Rates and availability are on the booking page.

Whitesboro RV Resort

85 RV Sites

Whitesboro RV Resort in Texas offers 85 full-hookup RV sites on level gravel pads in Grayson County, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 65 feet, open all year. A dedicated 30/50-amp pond site category joins full-hookup back-in and pull-through tiers, with a clubhouse, playground, shaded dog park, and boat storage. Eighty-five sites run in 30/50-amp back-in pond, 30/50-amp full hookup back-in, and 30/50-amp pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 65 feet. The pond category puts you on the water at the site. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side. One policy to clear first: RVs must be 10 years old or newer, though older rigs may be permitted with written approval — submit photos to [email protected] before booking. A pond supports fishing and boating, with a clubhouse, playground, ping pong, dog park, and picnicking filling the grounds. A golf course and a state park are nearby. Pets are welcome. Whitesboro sits on US Highway 82 in Grayson County, which serves two distinct markets well: long-haul travelers working the highway, and North Texas RV guests looking for a comfortable, uncrowded park within reasonable distance of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Lake Texoma is close for fishing and boating, and Sherman and Denison are a short drive east. Spring and fall bring the most comfortable North Texas conditions, with summer drawing Texoma traffic. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends, and clear RV approval early if your coach is older.

Roadrunner Ranch RV Resort

40 RV Sites

Roadrunner Ranch RV Resort in Marietta, OK, offers 40 full-hookup pull-thru RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Every site is a premium 30/50-amp pull-thru carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi and a picnic table, and ADA-accessible sites are available. Nothing needs unhitching, which is the whole design here. The resort is gated and rated big rig friendly. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and a community fire pit cover the essentials, and pets are welcome with a dog park. The grounds are clean and modern rather than amenity-heavy — corn hole, picnicking, birding, and a genuinely dark Oklahoma sky for stargazing, with lake, river, and boating access nearby. Marietta sits at the southern edge of Oklahoma minutes from the Texas border, close to Lake Murray and within easy reach of WinStar World Casino — a mile-long gaming floor and the largest casino in the world — plus the 6,500-seat Lucas Oil Live concert venue.
