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.

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.

Publishing length by category is genuinely useful — you know exactly what fits before booking. Accessible sites are available.

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.

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.

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

30 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.

Stillwater RV Resort

149 RV Sites, 1 House

Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. The waterfront premium sites are the ones to request. A house rental rounds out the lodging. 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.

Laundry handles the practical side. Pets are welcome. A community fire pit, playground, and dog park fill the grounds, with picnicking across the wide-open property and planned activities through the season. The pine forest setting gives the Tyler area its green, wooded character — distinctly different from the open plains most visitors picture when they think of Texas. The local attractions are unusually varied for a city this size. Tyler State Park's lake and forest trails are close, along with the Caldwell Zoo, the Tyler Rose Garden, the Discovery Science Place, Miranda Lambert's Pink Pistol, True Vine Brewing Co., and the East Texas State Fair and Santa Land. Wine tasting is nearby. The park serves both I-20 through-travelers and destination visitors.
