Ladera RV Resort

41 RV Sites

Ladera RV Resort in Sulphur Springs, TX, offers 41 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 79 feet. Sites come as back-in and pull-through full-hookup spots, including ADA-accessible sites, each carrying water, sewer, and electric. The 79-foot maximum makes room for the longest coaches, and the pull-throughs mean no unhitching on a travel night. Bathrooms and WiFi are on site, RV storage is available, and pets are welcome with a dog park on the grounds. The resort has a social center rather than a recreation complex: an on-site bar and dining room, a community fire pit, walking trails, and a pond. Fishing, boating, and kayaking are close by, wine tasting is nearby, and the dark Hopkins County sky makes for good stargazing. Sulphur Springs sits on Loop 301 in northeastern Texas, where the Piney Woods meet the Blackland Prairie, near Cooper Lake State Park's 19,000-acre reservoir and the Lake Fork bass fishery. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Ask about monthly rates and RV storage if you're planning an extended stay.

Big Bass RV Park & Boat Storage

80 RV Sites

Big Bass RV Park and Boat Storage in Yantis, Texas, offers 80 full-hookup RV sites on Lake Fork, with 30 and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 50 feet behind a gated entrance. Categories publish exact site dimensions — 45x12 back-in and 60x12 pull-through gravel sites, both with picnic tables — alongside a marina, boat ramp, boat rentals, and 32 enclosed boat storage units. Eighty sites run in 45x12 back-in 30/50-amp full hookup gravel and 60x12 pull-through 30/50-amp full hookup gravel categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet, with picnic tables. Publishing width and length by the foot removes every guess about whether your rig and slide-outs will fit. Accessible sites are available. A boutique shop, laundry, restrooms, showers, and 32 enclosed boat storage units handle the practical side. For weather warnings, the park map shows where to shelter — worth reviewing on arrival in East Texas. A marina, boat ramp, and boat rentals open the lake for boating, water sports, and fishing, with a pond, pavilion, walking trails, hiking, dog park, on-site dining, and productive birding filling the rest. A golf course and wine tasting are nearby. Lake Fork's reputation among bass anglers is outsized relative to its 27,000 acres — the reservoir has produced more Texas record largemouth than any other water body, and enclosed boat storage on site is exactly what that market wants. Spring bass season drives the sharpest demand. Reserve well ahead for tournament weekends.

Anchor Inn Marina and Resort

80 RV Sites, 4 Cabins, 3 Motel Rooms, 1 Mobile Home

Anchor Inn Marina and Resort in Quinlan, Texas, offers 86 RV sites and eight cabin, mobile home, and motel room units on 175 acres of Lake Tawakoni shoreline, with 30 and 50-amp electric service in standard and waterfront categories. Two boat ramps, a marina, fishing piers, and a fish cleaning station sit 50 miles east of Dallas. Eighty-six back-in sites run in standard and waterfront categories, carrying 30 and 50-amp electric — plan tank capacity accordingly, as the sites are electric rather than full hookup, and confirm water availability with the resort before you arrive. The waterfront category is the one to request. Eight cabins, mobile homes, and motel rooms round out the lodging, including seven lakefront cabins and 11 motel rooms. A laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The marina anchors the property, with two boat ramps, fishing piers, and a fish cleaning station opening the lake for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Walking trails and shaded RV sites fill the rest, with a state park nearby. Pets are welcome. One hundred seventy-five acres and two miles of shoreline make this a genuine lakefront resort rather than a campground with lake access, and the multi-element property serves anglers, boaters, families, and corporate retreat groups from the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Lake Tawakoni's catfish reputation is among the strongest in Texas. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand from the metroplex, with spring and fall fishing strong. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends, and confirm hookup details for your rig when you book.

Big Al's Barefoot Bay Marina and RV Resort

65 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 8 Tent Sites

Big Al's Barefoot Bay Marina and RV Resort in Pittsburg, Texas, offers 65 full-hookup RV sites, five cabins, and eight tent sites on Lake Bob Sandlin, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 120 feet. Lakefront back-in, Sanctuary back-in, Grand pull-through, and Trailhead categories join classic and convenient tiers, with a full marina, boat rentals, and on-site dining. Sixty-five sites span classic back-in, convenient pull-thru, Grand pull-thru, lakefront back-in, Sanctuary back-in, and Trailhead pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 120 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One hundred twenty feet is among the most generous capacities anywhere, and the named categories tell you what you are getting. Five cabins and eight tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A refundable security deposit is required at check-in on all sites and cabins. The marina anchors the property, with boat docks, a boat ramp, boat rentals, and kayak rentals for boating, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and swimming. A clubhouse, game room, arcade, billiards, horseshoes, golf cart rentals, a playground, pavilion, dog park, on-site dining, and a bar fill the rest, with live music and planned activities through the season. Lake Bob Sandlin is a 9,400-acre Corps reservoir with 120 miles of piney woods shoreline and a strong largemouth reputation. Summer and the spring bass season drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Sunset Resort

83 RV Sites

Sunset Resort on Lake Tawakoni in Quinlan, Texas, offers 83 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet, behind a gated entrance an hour from Dallas. Waterfront back-in sites join premium and standard back-in and pull-through categories, with a boat ramp, fishing pier, outdoor pool, and general store. Eighty-three sites span standard back-in, standard pull-thru, premium back-in, premium pull-thru, and waterfront back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet. The waterfront back-in category is the one to request — lake frontage at the site rather than a walk away. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a gated entrance handle the practical side. A boat ramp and fishing pier give direct lake access for boating and fishing, with an outdoor pool alongside. A pavilion, playground, and cabins fill the grounds, with a creek on the property and a state park and water park nearby. Pets are welcome. Lake Tawakoni is one of the largest and most productive reservoirs in northeast Texas — 36,700 acres on the Sabine River drainage with a catfish reputation strong enough to earn it the informal title of Catfish Capital of Texas. Quinlan sits in Hunt County between the Dallas-Fort Worth metro and the East Texas Piney Woods, an hour from downtown Dallas. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand from the metroplex, with spring and fall fishing strong and considerably easier availability. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends and holiday periods.

Hidden Grove RV Resort

107 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 10 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer, 1 Apartment

Hidden Grove RV Resort in Honey Grove, Texas, offers 108 full-hookup RV sites, 17 apartment and cabin units, and 10 tent sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 72 feet.

Publishing the surface by category is unusually transparent — you know whether you are on concrete or gravel before you book, and 72 feet handles a long coach. Seventeen apartments and cabins and 10 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and RV storage handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with a lake and pond supporting fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, and kayak rentals. Walking trails, hiking, horseshoes, corn hole, a playground, and picnicking fill the grounds, with live music through the season, wine and beer tasting nearby, and productive birding.

Spring and fall are most comfortable in northeast Texas. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Dallas NE Campground - An Open Road Resort Property

14 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 1 Tent Site, 1 Cottage

Dallas NE Campground in Caddo Mills, TX, offers 14 full-hookup RV sites, 9 cabin and cottage rentals, and 1 tent site, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 85 feet.

All carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table, and ADA-accessible sites are available. At 85 feet the pull-throughs take the longest coaches without unhitching.

The property also hosts weddings. Caddo Mills sits northeast of Dallas, close enough to the metro to be practical and far enough out to feel like a resort. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Premium lakeside pull-throughs book first.

Lake Hawkins RV Park

50 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

Lake Hawkins RV Park in Texas offers 50 full-hookup back-in RV sites and two cabins across about 55 acres on one of the clearest lakes in East Texas, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. A boat ramp, fishing pier, white-sand beach, and boat storage sit on 1,800 feet of shoreline. Fifty back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. A single back-in category keeps things simple, and every site gets a fire pit and picnic table. Two cabins round out the lodging. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side. Check in at the main office during working hours or go directly to your assigned site; call the office if you need help after hours. A boat ramp, fishing pier, and nearly 700 feet of white-sand beach anchor the recreation, with boating, paddle boats, canoeing, kayaking, water sports, swimming, snorkeling, and fishing all on the water. Snorkeling is worth noting — the lake is spring-fed and clear enough to make it worthwhile, which is genuinely rare in East Texas. Walking trails, hiking, volleyball, a pavilion, and playground fill the grounds. Pets are welcome. The white sand and clear water give the property a distinctly coastal feel in the middle of the Piney Woods. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Old Rooster Creek RV Park

Old Rooster Creek RV Park in Princeton, Texas, offers water-and-electric RV sites in back-in and pull-through configurations, behind a gated entrance. A fitness center, pet washing station, laundry, pavilion, playground, dog park, and on-site dining serve a family-friendly property about 30 miles northeast of Dallas. Sites carry water and electric with site WiFi, in back-in and pull-through configurations. Contact the park to confirm amp service, length limits, and sewer availability for your rig — the published site records are incomplete, and it is worth a call rather than an assumption. A laundry, restrooms, showers, RV storage, boat storage, and a pavilion handle the practical side. The park notes that management is not responsible for tire inflation, battery charging, freezing, or heat loss — standard language worth reading before a winter stay. A fitness center, playground, dog park, pet washing station, pavilion, on-site dining, and picnicking fill the grounds. Pets are welcome, and the wash station is a genuinely useful touch after a muddy Texas spring. Princeton is one of the fastest-growing communities in Collin County, where the Blackland Prairie's agricultural character is giving way to DFW's suburban expansion. That growth drives a substantial workforce and long-stay market alongside travelers. Lake Lavon is minutes away for boating and fishing, McKinney's historic square is a short drive west, and downtown Dallas is about 45 minutes southwest. Spring and fall bring the most comfortable North Texas conditions. Demand runs steadily on corridor growth rather than a tourist season. Reserve ahead, and ask about monthly rates.

Island View RV Park

51 RV Sites

Island View RV Park in Jefferson, Texas, offers 51 full-hookup back-in RV sites on Lake O' the Pines, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet behind a gated entrance. A beach and direct lake access sit on an 18,700-acre reservoir in the East Texas Piney Woods. Fifty-one back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 50 feet. The 20-amp option suits smaller trailers and vans that do not need a full 50-amp pedestal, and the 50-foot capacity handles most mid-size coaches. A gated entrance controls access, which matters more than it sounds at a lakeside park where day traffic can otherwise wander through. Pets are welcome. The lake carries the recreation. A beach gives direct swimming access, with boating, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boarding from the shoreline and a pond on the property besides. Hiking and biking run from the grounds, and the dark sky over the reservoir makes for good stargazing and productive birding along the cypress-lined shore. Jefferson is one of East Texas's most historically layered communities. Antebellum architecture lines the streets, the town's nineteenth-century steamboat history still shapes its identity, and the cypress-draped waterways of the Big Cypress Bayou system have defined this corner of the Piney Woods since before the Texas Republic. The combination of an 18,700-acre reservoir and a genuine heritage town within minutes is unusual. The park serves guests whose visit splits between lake recreation and Jefferson's heritage tourism. Summer lake season and the town's festival calendar drive the heaviest demand — reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Flat Creek Marina and RV Camping

37 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

Flat Creek Marina and RV Camping in Chandler, TX, offers 37 RV sites and 2 cabins, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 62 feet.

Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. The grounds are gated and open all year, with laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, boat storage, and golf cart rentals for getting around. Portable toilets supplement the bathhouse near the water. Pets are welcome. Checkout fees are charged to the card on file unless you arrange otherwise. A full marina with boat docks, a boat ramp, kayak rentals, fishing guides, a beach, and a snack bar makes this a fishing and boating destination first, with swimming, paddling, birding, biking, and stargazing alongside. Chandler sits on Cedar Creek Lake in Henderson County, one of East Texas's busiest recreational lakes. Rates by site type are on the booking page. Island waterfront full-hookup sites are the premium spots and book earliest.
