Dallas NE Campground - An Open Road Resort Property

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

Finding a campground that actually feels like a resort — not just a parking lot with hookups — within practical range of a major Texas city is harder than it sounds. Dallas NE Campground in Caddo Mills, operated by Open Road Resorts, solves that problem with a clean, thoughtfully equipped property that gives metropolitan Dallas campers a genuine outdoor escape without a three-hour drive. Located roughly 45 minutes east of downtown in Hunt County, this is the campground you come to when you want a proper amenity package, a fishing lake, and the practical advantage of easy city access on the same trip. The campground accommodates 105 full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric connections alongside 10 rustic cabins for guests who prefer lodging. Clean restroom and laundry facilities are maintained to a high standard throughout the property, and the retail store, propane fill station, and community fire pits handle the convenience-layer needs that make a stay work smoothly. The gated entry and attentive management create a security and cleanliness atmosphere that elevates the overall experience above typical highway-adjacent campgrounds. The amenity package covers the full spectrum of family outdoor recreation. A swimming pool with a splash pad provides warm-season cooling in the Texas summer heat. The 5-acre catch-and-release fishing lake is a genuine highlight — well-stocked, requiring no fishing license for campground guests, and located on the south side of the property with nearby picnic areas. A fitness center supports health-conscious travelers. A game room and playground entertain all ages through the less outdoors-oriented hours, and the dog park ensures that traveling pets are covered. Sports courts and dining options round out the daily comfort list. Lake Ray Hubbard — one of the Dallas area's premier recreational lakes — is about 20 minutes west of the campground, adding boating, water skiing, and additional fishing to the regional activity list. Lake Tawakoni State Park, a short drive east, offers shoreline hiking and access to one of East Texas's most distinctive lakes. The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex is fully accessible for day trips — from the Dallas Museum of Art and AT&T Stadium to the Perot Museum of Nature and Science and the vibrant Deep Ellum entertainment district. Dallas NE Campground is open year-round, and Texas's climate creates a long effective camping season stretching from early spring through late fall with relatively mild winters. Weekends fill quickly for this region's most popular family-camping destination, so planning ahead is worthwhile. Families visiting Dallas for sports events, family gatherings, or business travel will find it a practical and comfortable alternative to traditional hotel accommodations. Come for the fishing lake, stay for the splash pad, and use the strong highway access to make the most of the greater DFW region. Hunt County's growing wine trail and local farm markets add a distinctly Texan flavor to day trips from the campground.

Sandy Lake

213 RV Sites

Sandy Lake in Carrollton, Texas, offers 213 full-hookup RV sites 20 minutes from downtown Dallas, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet, open all year. Standard and cozy full-hookup back-in and pull-through categories join a 24-hour fitness center, outdoor pool, clubhouse, and game room. Two hundred thirteen sites span cozy full hookup, cozy full hookup pull-through, standard full hookup, and standard full hookup pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. The cozy tier keeps a lower-priced option available for smaller rigs in an expensive metro market. A laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, and a self-serve RV wash handle the practical side. The property was formerly Sandy Lake MH & RV Resort. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a 24-hour fitness center, clubhouse, game room, billiards, pavilion, playground, and dog park filling the grounds. Planned activities run through the season. Pets are welcome. The address is 1915 Sandy Lake Road, in the dense suburban landscape of the Metroplex's mid-Cities corridor. That position is the whole proposition: downtown Dallas is 20 minutes away, AT&T Stadium and Six Flags Over Texas are minutes off in Arlington, and DFW airport is close — which makes this practical for Cowboys and Rangers games, concerts, business travel, and extended stays alike. Demand tracks the DFW event calendar rather than a season, with spring and fall the most comfortable months in North Texas. Reserve well ahead for major game and concert weekends, and ask about monthly rates.

Shady Acres RV Park

72 RV Sites

Shady Acres RV Park in Cleburne, Texas, offers 72 full-hookup pull-through RV sites on 30-by-60-foot concrete pads, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Every site is pull-through, with an outdoor pool, recreation center, and game room on a property that serves both long-term residents and travelers. Seventy-two pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. The 30-by-60-foot concrete pads are the practical detail — level concrete removes the re-leveling that gravel sites require on a longer stay, and pulling through means no backing at all. Propane fills, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a recreation center and game room for other hours and basketball and a playground on the grounds. The amenity set is well-maintained rather than elaborate, which suits a park where a substantial share of guests stay by the month. Cleburne sits along US-67 in Johnson County, between Fort Worth and the Hill Country transition zone — 30 to 40 minutes from the DFW metro while keeping the quieter, small-city character that the suburban sprawl around it has largely absorbed. Day trips run conveniently in several directions from here. The park operates year-round, with winter drawing long-term residents and summer bringing travel traffic. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

149 RV Sites, 1 House

A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. The saltwater aquatic complex is the signature — a lazy river, multiple pools, and a swim-up bar that function as a resort water park rather than a campground amenity. A fitness center, clubhouse, game room, pickleball, volleyball, horseshoes, golf cart rentals, biking, a lake, creek, beach, playground, and dog park fill the rest. Ninety-two acres just off I-20 between Tyler and Longview puts the resort at a scale most campgrounds in the region do not attempt. Summer drives the heaviest demand for a water resort, with spring and fall most comfortable in East Texas. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Belaire Junction RV Park

15 RV Sites

On the H.K. Dodgen Loop in Temple, Texas—founded by Bell County natives with genuine roots in the Temple-Belton community and positioned at one of the most convenient corridor stops on the I-35 between Dallas-Fort Worth and Austin—Belaire Junction RV Park offers a retro-styled, family-friendly community with full hookups, free WiFi and cable, a pool, splash pad, clubhouse, game room, playground, pickleball and basketball courts, and multiple fenced dog parks in a gated property that takes the standard I-35 layover and turns it into an actual destination stay. The weekly Take-Out Thursday and Food Truck Friday events bring local restaurant vendors onto the property, creating the on-site social energy that distinguishes Belaire Junction from the functional-but-forgettable highway parks that populate the Central Texas corridor. Full hookup sites accommodate big rigs with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer service alongside cable TV, WiFi, and the concrete infrastructure that supports extended stays in the Texas heat. Two laundry facilities and private restrooms and showers support multi-night and weekly guests. A pond on the property provides the immediate wildlife-watching and light fishing opportunity that many long-stay guests discover, and a recreation center, game room, and community fire pit extend the on-site activity options beyond the pool and splash pad. The gated entry provides the security that full-time and working RV travelers prioritize in a park with easy highway access. Temple sits in Bell County in Central Texas at the geographic center of the triangle formed by Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, and San Antonio—a position that makes it one of the most traveled stretches of highway in the state and simultaneously one of the most underappreciated stops for travelers who look past the highway exits. The city's history as a railroad town and the medical center anchored by Baylor Scott & White's flagship campus give it a civic character distinct from the bedroom communities that populate much of the I-35 corridor. The surrounding Bell County landscape transitions between the limestone Hill Country to the west and the blackland prairie that stretches east toward the Brazos River. Belton Lake, impounded on the Leon River in Bell County just a few miles from the park, provides the primary outdoor recreation anchor for the Temple-Belton area—a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir with 110 miles of shoreline, public boat ramps, swim beaches, and the bass and catfish fishing that the Central Texas reservoir system reliably produces. Stillhouse Hollow Lake to the south on the Lampasas River adds additional boating, fishing, and swim beach access within easy range. The city of Waco, 30 minutes north, offers the Magnolia Market at the Silos, Baylor University's campus and bear habitat, and the National Ranger Hall of Fame. Belaire Junction operates year-round in Temple's mild Central Texas climate, where the I-35 corridor's year-round traffic creates consistent demand from both overnight travelers and the extended-stay community that uses the park as a base for work assignments in the medical, military, and manufacturing sectors that drive Bell County's economy. The Food Truck Friday events are the week's social highlight and a genuine incentive for guests to plan their travel timing accordingly. Reserve your site at Belaire Junction and let Temple's friendly Bell County character prove that the best stop on the Central Texas I-35 run isn't always the one the exit signs are loudest about.
