The Farm RV Park

41 RV Sites

The Farm RV Park in Lufkin, TX, offers 41 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites come in three categories — back-in, premium back-in, and pull-thru — each carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. The park is rated big rig friendly within its 40-foot limit. Laundry and a playground are on the property, and pets are welcome with a dog park. The setting is the product: 50 acres of east Texas timberland with two stocked fishing ponds covering nearly two acres and walking trails through the property. It's a working country setting rather than a resort with a schedule. The park sits 15 miles east of Lufkin in Angelina County. Coming from Nacogdoches, take Highway 59 south to the TX-103 East and Atkinson Drive exit and turn left onto TX-103 East. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Premium back-ins are limited — ask for one when you book.

Blessing Trails RV Park

30 RV Sites

Blessing Trails RV Park in Broaddus, Texas, offers 30 pull-through RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet, steps from Sam Rayburn Reservoir. A single 30/50-amp pull-through category means no backing at any site, with on-site fishing guides in the Sabine County piney woods. Thirty sites are pull-through throughout, carrying sewer and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet. Confirm water service with the park when you book. One consistent category and an all-pull-through layout means no backing after a driving day and no guessing about what you reserved. One thing worth asking about: the park advertises that it pays for the electricity, which on a long stay in a Texas summer is a meaningful difference. On-site fishing guides are the standout amenity and tell you exactly who this park serves. Fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and hiking all run from the property or the lake. Pets are welcome. Sam Rayburn is the largest lake entirely within Texas — 114,000 acres of East Texas water with a bass, crappie, and catfish reputation that draws tournament anglers from across the South. A public boat ramp is six miles away and free; the private ramp at Powell Park is seven miles and charges $6 to launch. The Angelina National Forest surrounds much of the shoreline. Bass season and the fall run drive the heaviest demand, with summer bringing lake traffic. Reserve well ahead for tournament weekends, and ask about the current fall rates.

Lake Murvaul Park & Marina

19 RV Sites, 5 Cabins

Lake Murvaul Park and Marina in Carthage, Texas, offers 19 full-hookup back-in RV sites and five cabins on a quiet East Texas reservoir, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. A single back-in category means every guest gets the same spec, with a marina, boat ramp, pavilion, playground, and on-site dining. Nineteen back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One consistent category and no guesswork about what you booked. Five cabins round out the lodging. A laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The marina and boat ramp are the anchor, opening the lake for boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing. A pavilion, playground, and on-site dining fill the rest. Pets are welcome. Lake Murvaul is a 1,000-acre reservoir on Murvaul Bayou in the Sabine River basin, and its size is exactly the point — small enough to stay quiet and protected, big enough for genuinely good crappie, bass, and catfish water. It never draws the crowds that the big East Texas reservoirs do, which is why regulars keep it to themselves. The lake sits ten miles southwest of Carthage, three miles south of Clayton, and 14 miles north of Timpson, in the Panola County Piney Woods. Carthage has the Texas Country Music Hall of Fame and the Jim Reeves Memorial, and Toledo Bend is within reach for anyone wanting bigger water. Spring and fall bring the best fishing and the most comfortable East Texas conditions, with summer drawing boating traffic. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Wildwood Resort

Toledo Bend Reservoir straddles the Louisiana-Texas border for 185,000 acres of water that consistently ranks among the top bass fisheries in the United States, producing largemouth bass of a size and frequency that keeps professional anglers and recreational fishers returning season after season. Wildwood Resort occupies 40 acres of waterfront on the Louisiana side, offering lodging from full-hookup RV sites to cabins and multi-room lodges positioned to take full advantage of the reservoir's remarkable fishery and the dramatic piney-woods setting of Sabine County. The resort accommodates guests in two main configurations: 16 full-hookup RV sites with 30- and 50-amp electric service on back-in, 40-foot-friendly pads with security lighting, and 31 cabins and lodges ranging from intimate two-person retreats to large group units sleeping up to 24. The lodge options run from simple cabin accommodations to resort-style suites with full kitchens, making Wildwood a practical destination for fishing groups of any size. Three swimming pools serve guests during the warmer months, and a gift and tackle shop on the property handles last-minute gear and bait without requiring a drive to town. The fishing infrastructure at Wildwood is among the property's strongest attributes. A 300-foot fishing pier, lighted for night fishing and partially covered, extends from the shoreline into Toledo Bend's productive near-shore waters — an excellent option for guests who want consistent access without launching a boat. A private boat launch gives those with their own craft direct reservoir access, while three separate stocked ponds on the property provide catch-and-release fishing that doesn't require a Louisiana fishing license. Paddle boards, kayaks, and paddle bikes are available to all resort guests at no additional charge, making casual water exploration accessible regardless of whether guests brought a boat. Toledo Bend Family Adventure Park, directly across the road from the resort, adds a land-based entertainment component to the trip that extends the property's appeal well beyond fishing. The park includes water attractions, zip lines, and family activities that serve as natural afternoon programming after a morning on the water. Zwolle, the nearest town, is best known for the Tamale Fiesta, an annual October celebration of the area's Spanish and Adaes Indian heritage that has grown into one of the most distinctive local festivals in Louisiana, with tamale preparation competitions, music, and cultural programming. Bald eagles work the reservoir's edge in winter months, and the surrounding Sabine River country offers additional wildlife viewing throughout the year. Toledo Bend's bass fishing season never truly closes, but peak periods run February through May for pre-spawn and spawn activity and October through November in the fall feeding period. Summer fishing is productive in the early morning hours before heat sets in, and the resort's pools provide afternoon relief during the hottest weeks of July and August. The Tamale Fiesta weekend in October fills area lodging well in advance — book early if that event is on the itinerary. Winter is the season for bald eagle watching and quieter reservoir conditions, with cabin rates at their most accessible and fewer boats competing for the best water.

Texas State Railroad Campground

55 RV Sites, 16 Tent Sites

Texas State Railroad Campground in Rusk, Texas, offers 55 full-hookup RV sites and 16 tent sites at the historic depot of the only state-owned heritage railroad in Texas, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. A splash pad, lake, clubhouse, and playground sit on a big-rig-friendly property in the East Texas Piney Woods. Fifty-five sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp in pull-through and group back-in configurations, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Sixteen tent sites cover simpler camping. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, and WiFi reaches the property. One vehicle is allowed per site; additional vehicles are $5 per night on arrival. On-site recreation suits families staying around the train schedule. A splash pad anchors the warm months, a lake on the property supports fishing, and walking trails, a playground, a clubhouse, and a pavilion fill out the grounds. Pets are welcome. The railroad is the reason most guests book. Its 25-mile steam and diesel excursion runs through the Piney Woods between Rusk and Palestine, and the campground sits at the Rusk depot, the eastern terminus — which means guests can walk to the platform rather than drive to it. The line was built in 1881 to haul lumber and supplies during the East Texas timber boom. In town, the Carnegie Library, the Museum for East Texas Culture, the Howard House Museum, and Veteran's Memorial Park are all close. Excursion schedules drive occupancy here. Check the train calendar first and book your site around it — running days fill well before quiet ones.

Two Creeks Crossing Resort

150 RV Sites

Two Creeks Crossing Resort in Livingston, Texas, offers 150 full-hookup RV sites on Lake Livingston with 30 and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 80 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Pull-through categories publish their exact length — 58, 60, and 80 feet — alongside waterfront back-in sites, a boat ramp, fishing pier, and hot tub. One hundred fifty sites span standard back-in, deluxe back-in, waterfront back-in, and pull-through categories at 58, 60, and 80 feet, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 80 feet. Publishing length by category is genuinely useful — you know exactly what fits before booking. Accessible sites are available. A laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a business center handle the practical side. A boat ramp and fishing pier give direct lake access for boating and fishing, with an outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna alongside. A fitness center, recreation center, clubhouse, pond, playground, pavilion, and community fire pit fill the grounds. Pets are welcome. The resort sits within towering East Texas pines, bordered by two wide boat-navigable creeks that give it both its name and direct access to the 21,000-acre reservoir anchoring the Sam Houston National Forest corridor's recreational economy. Directions from Houston via I-69/Highway 59 north: continue to Livingston, turn west on Highway 190 toward Onalaska, then right on FM 3152. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Sandy Pines RV Park

On eight pine-shaded acres just off US Highway 287 in Grapeland, in the Pineywoods country of Houston County, Texas, Sandy Pines RV Park offers a clean, meticulously maintained small-scale campground where 20 oversized concrete pads—each measuring 40 by 15 feet on generous lots—provide the spacious, well-connected RV accommodation that the east Texas Piney Woods camping community increasingly demands. The park's fiber optic internet connection, city water and sewer hookups, and laundry facilities on pads with 20/30/50-amp service serve the full range of short-term traveler and extended-stay guest, in a pine forest setting that provides natural sound buffering and shade throughout the camping day. Twenty sites with extra-large 40-by-15-foot concrete pads offer level, stable parking for rigs of all configurations, with pull-through pads available for guests who need the convenience of straight-line entry and exit. City water and sewer, 20/30/50-amp electric service, and a fiber optic Wi-Fi connection delivering streaming-quality internet throughout the park provide the utility infrastructure for work-from-the-road guests and traditional vacationers alike. The park's on-site laundry and the clean, well-maintained facilities that repeat guests consistently cite reflect the attentive owner-operated culture that small Texas RV parks do best. The surrounding Houston County Pineywoods landscape of loblolly pine, longleaf pine, and the mixed hardwood forest that characterizes the east Texas timberland creates the natural setting for Sandy Pines—an environment that feels meaningfully removed from the commercial highway corridor even as it sits just minutes from US 287. The Pineywoods' bird life, including the red-cockaded woodpecker that the Davy Crockett National Forest's longleaf pine management actively supports, makes the east Texas forest one of the region's most rewarding destinations for birders who combine campground stays with systematic species documentation along the forest's established birding trails. Davy Crockett National Forest, named for the frontier legislator and Alamo defender whose early life was intertwined with east Texas's woodland country, encompasses more than 160,000 acres of national forest land east and west of Crockett in Houston County—a public land resource providing hiking on the Four C National Recreation Trail, wildlife viewing, and the longleaf pine restoration that has become one of the national forest's primary ecological programs. Houston County Lake, 11 minutes south of the park, provides the flatwater boating and the bass and catfish fishing that east Texas lake country has been famous for throughout the conservation era, and the small historic city of Crockett serves the campground's practical supply and dining needs. The east Texas Piney Woods climate supports camping through most of the year, with the spring wildflower season from February through April providing the dogwood and redbud blooms that make the longleaf and loblolly pine forest's understory one of the most colorful woodland environments in the state during the transition weeks. Summer brings the cicada-song heat of the Texas timberland—warm and humid but shaded by the pine canopy that keeps Sandy Pines sites noticeably cooler than open-field campgrounds at the same latitude. Fall's moderate temperatures and the east Texas hunting and fishing seasons make September through November the most active camping period for returning guests who build Davy Crockett National Forest and Houston County Lake into a reliable fall itinerary.

Blue Sky Lake Livingston RV Park and Cabins

51 RV Sites, 15 Cabins

Blue Sky Lake Livingston RV Park and Cabins in Texas offers 51 full-hookup RV sites and 15 cabins in the piney woods of Polk County, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet.

Fifty-one sites span premium back-in, premium pull-thru, wooded back-in, and wooded pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. The wooded categories are worth requesting through a Texas summer — genuine shade makes a real difference. Fifteen cabins round out the lodging, including waterfront and secluded wooded units. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Submitting the online form does not confirm a booking; staff will contact you to finalize the price and take a deposit, which is required for weekly and monthly stays. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a clubhouse, ping pong, pond, and lake filling the rest. Boating, water sports, swimming, and fishing run on the water, with planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. Lake Livingston covers 83,000 acres — the second-largest lake wholly within Texas — and the surrounding Sam Houston National Forest country gives the property a genuine East Texas forest setting an hour and a half north of Houston. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Nine cabins and three tent sites round out the accommodations. A laundry, propane fills, dump station, boat storage, restrooms, showers, firewood, and WiFi handle the practical side. The lake is the reason to book. A full-service marina, boat ramp, boat docks, fishing pier, and beach give complete water access, with boating, fishing, and swimming from the property. An outdoor pool — open seasonally and, by the resort's own account, second in popularity only to the lake itself — anchors the warm months, with a hot tub and sauna, clubhouse, sports courts, volleyball, horseshoes, a playground, pavilion, dog park, and on-site dining besides. Off-roading is nearby. Pets are welcome. Lake Livingston is the largest lake in Texas east of the Sabine, an 82,600-acre reservoir on the Trinity River delivering outstanding white bass, catfish, and largemouth fishing, surrounded by the longleaf and loblolly pine of the Sam Houston National Forest corridor. Summer lake season drives demand. Reserve well ahead.

Lagoon Ranch RV Resort

145 RV Sites, 1 Cottage

Lagoon Ranch RV Resort in Onalaska, Texas, offers 145 full-hookup RV sites and a cottage on Lake Livingston, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 70 feet. K9 Corner back-in sites and Grove and Lakeview premium categories join standard tiers, with a lagoon pool, splash pad, hot tub, and fitness center.

A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and golf cart rentals handle the practical side. The lagoon pool is the property's signature and the only one of its kind in the state — a swimming environment closer to a resort beach than a campground pool. A splash pad, hot tub and sauna, fitness center, clubhouse, arcade, pavilion, community fire pit, playground, dog park, on-site dining, and a bar fill the rest, with live music and planned activities through the season. A state park and golf course are nearby, and the birding is productive. Lake Livingston covers 90,000 acres, one of the largest reservoirs in Texas. Summer lake season drives demand hard. Reserve well ahead.

The Boulders at Lake Tyler

31 RV Sites

The Boulders at Lake Tyler in Whitehouse, Texas, offers 31 RV sites on the lakefront, with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Waterfront back-in and waterfront pull-through categories join a standard back-in tier, with a boat ramp, boat docks, fishing pier, and kayak and bike rentals. Thirty-one sites span back-in water-and-electric, waterfront back-in water-and-electric, and waterfront pull-thru water-and-electric categories, carrying water and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet. Plan around the hookups: sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity accordingly. Two of three categories are waterfront, which tells you what the property is built around. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, restrooms, showers, and on-site dining handle the practical side. A boat ramp, boat docks, boat rentals, kayak rentals, and a fishing pier open the lake for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. A recreation center, pavilion, playground, walking trails, hiking, biking, golf cart rentals, billiards, and shuffleboard fill the rest. Pets are welcome. Lake Tyler is a clear spring-fed reservoir in Smith County's East Texas Piney Woods, and its water quality is genuinely better than most Texas lakes — the bass and crappie fishing draws regional anglers, and the shoreline stays wooded rather than developed. Tyler's rose gardens, state park, and downtown are a short drive north, with Dallas about a hundred miles west. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand, with spring and fall fishing strong and the most comfortable conditions. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends.

The premium covered and shed sites are limited, so ask about them when you call or book.
