Bridgeview RV Park

15 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

Bridgeview RV Park in Breckenridge, TX, offers 15 full-hookup RV sites and 7 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come as back-ins and pull-thrus, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. The park is rated big rig friendly. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, and on-site dining cover the essentials, and pets are welcome with a dog park. At 15 sites this is a small, well-equipped park rather than a resort — the appeal is clean hookups, a level pad, and no queue for anything. Breckenridge is the Stephens County seat, in the post-oak and mesquite country of north-central Texas between the DFW metroplex and the West Texas plains, with Hubbard Creek Reservoir close by. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Ask about weekly and monthly rates if you're working in the area.

Willow Beach RV Park & Marina

52 RV Sites, 7 Cabins, 3 Tent Sites

Willow Beach RV Park and Marina in Graford, Texas, offers 52 full-hookup RV sites, seven cabins, and three tent sites on Possum Kingdom Lake, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. A waterfront back-in 50-amp category joins pull-through and water-and-electric tiers, with a water park, mini-golf, and fitness center. Fifty-two sites run in back-in water-and-electric 50-amp, pull-thru 50-amp, and waterfront back-in 50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. The waterfront category is the one to request. Seven cabins and three tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side. A water park and outdoor pool anchor the summer, with a beach supporting swimming, boating, paddle boats, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Mini-golf, a fitness center, clubhouse, game room, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, walking trails, hiking, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the rest, with live music, wine and beer tasting nearby, and productive birding. Possum Kingdom's blue-green water and limestone bluffs give it a character no other north-central Texas reservoir matches. Possum Kingdom State Park is five miles, Hell's Gate eight, and Palo Pinto Mountains State Park twelve. Summer lake season drives demand. Reserve well ahead.

Lake Palo Pinto RV Park

28 RV Sites, 1 Cabin

Lake Palo Pinto RV Park in Palo Pinto, TX, offers 28 full-hookup RV sites and 1 cabin, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come in two types: standard back-ins and lakefront water-and-electric back-ins, with full-hookup sites carrying water, sewer, and electric. The lakefront sites are the ones to ask for. The park is rated big rig friendly within its 50-foot limit, and laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a dump station, and a community fire pit cover the essentials. The cabin gives guests without a rig a way to join. Pets are welcome. Fishing is the reason people come — the park sits on the shore of Lake Palo Pinto, a 2,375-acre reservoir, with lake access from the property. Palo Pinto sits in Palo Pinto County in the rugged hill and canyon country west of Fort Worth, where the Brazos River cuts through some of the most broken terrain in North Texas. Rates for sites and the cabin are on the booking page. Lakefront back-ins are limited, so reserve early for spring and summer fishing weekends.

Hidden Lake RV Ranch

36 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 6 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

Hidden Lake RV Ranch in Jacksboro, Texas, offers 37 full-hookup RV sites, three cabins, and six tent sites along tree-lined lanes in Jack County, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. A lake, walking trails, and sports courts sit on a quiet rural property with RV rentals available. Thirty-seven standard back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. RV rentals, three cabins, and six tent sites round out the accommodations. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A map at the front of the property lists all spaces, so you can find your booked site on arrival. Pets are welcome. A lake sits on the property with walking trails alongside, and sports courts, volleyball, horseshoes, a playground, hiking, and birding fill the grounds. The shaded sites and tree-lined lanes give the ranch its character — this is quiet north Texas countryside rather than a highway lot, and the family-oriented atmosphere is what brings guests back. A golf course is nearby. Jacksboro sits on US-281 where the Rolling Plains meet the Cross Timbers' eastern margin, 75 miles northwest of the Fort Worth metro and 55 miles south of the Wichita Falls corridor. That position gives guests genuine rural quiet within practical reach of both. The ranch serves the north Texas season. Spring and fall deliver the most comfortable conditions, with summer bringing lake use. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

Thirty-seven cabins, cottages, and lodges and 10 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side, and a daily resort fee covers the amenity and activity program. The water park is the anchor — three outdoor pools, a hydrostorm bucket, a bubble pool, and multiple slides. Mini-golf, laser tag, gem mining, an arcade, jumping pillow, gaga ball, inflatable water toys, sports courts, basketball, and volleyball fill the grounds, with a pond for fishing, a playground, pavilion, dog park, and on-site dining besides.

The outdoor kitchen and deck facilities give the park a community-oriented character that guests consistently note.

Carter Lake nearby for boating and fishing and the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex within reasonable driving range to the southeast. Wichita Falls is a straightforward drive northwest. Spring and fall bring the most comfortable north Texas conditions and the best fishing. Summer draws lake traffic. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends and holiday periods.

Camp Fimfo Waco

246 RV Sites, 88 Cabins, 8 Tent Sites

Camp Fimfo Waco in Texas offers 246 full-hookup RV sites, 88 cabins, and eight tent sites across more than 200 acres on the Bosque River, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 56 feet behind a gated entrance, open all year. Preferred Red Carpet back-in and pull-through categories join premium RV/tent sites with side-specific hookups, alongside a water park, zip line, and laser tag. Two hundred forty-six sites span preferred Red Carpet back-in, preferred Red Carpet pull-thru, and premium back-in RV/tent categories — including sites specified as right-side hookup — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 56 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Specifying which side the hookups are on is a small detail that saves a lot of hose. Eighty-eight cabins and eight tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Tours are welcome by appointment — call or email [email protected]. A water park and outdoor pool anchor the summer, with a zip line, laser tag, mini-golf, an arcade, jumping pillow, gem mining, sports courts, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, bocce ball, billiards, horseshoes, corn hole, a pond, playground, dog park, and on-site dining besides.

Krause Springs

18 RV Sites, 6 Tent Sites

Krause Springs in Spicewood, Texas, offers 18 RV sites and six tent sites on a 115-acre Hill Country property fed by 32 natural springs, with 20, 30, and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 40 feet, behind a gated entrance. A single back-in category joins a spring-fed pool, natural swimming holes, walking trails, and a butterfly garden. Eighteen back-in sites carry water and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 40 feet, with picnic tables and BBQ pits. Two things to plan around: sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity and use the dump station, and the 40-foot cap rules out larger coaches. Six tent sites round out the lodging. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and a pavilion handle the practical side. Two policies to know before you book: the gates close at 8pm with no exceptions, and pets are not permitted at the park. The springs are the entire draw. Thirty-two of them feed both a manmade swimming pool and a series of natural swimming holes shaded by cypress, with a waterfall and grotto that draw visitors from across Central Texas. Walking trails, hiking, fishing, and genuinely good stargazing fill the rest. The Krause family has owned the property in Burnet County for more than five decades, and it remains one of the Hill Country's most beloved and most enduring swimming destinations — Lake Travis, Marble Falls, and Austin are all close. Summer is decisively the season, and the swimming holes fill. Reserve well ahead, and plan your arrival before the 8pm gate closure.

106 RV Sites, 13 Tent Sites, 9 Cottages, 1 Wagon, 6 Park Models

One hundred six sites span Creek Side back-in, Creekside pull-in, Garden Side back-in, Meadow back-in, pull-thru, and Wine Row back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 90 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Naming every category for its setting rather than a tier number is unusually helpful, and 90 feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. Fifteen cottages and park models, 13 tent sites, and a wagon round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a snack bar handle the practical side. A water park and splash pad anchor the summer, with an outdoor pool and spa alongside. Mini-golf, a jumping pillow, arcade, game room, craft room, fitness center, recreation center, gaga ball, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, a creek, pond, playground, pavilion, community fire pit, and dog park fill the rest.

HTR TX Hill Country in Kerrville, TX, offers 13 full-hookup RV sites, 16 cabins, and 13 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 72 feet.

A bathhouse with showers, a general store, a clubhouse, a recreation center, and a dump station cover the essentials. Note the pet policy: cabins and lodges carry a $50 per pet charge per reservation. Cancellation terms are published on the resort's site and worth reading before you book. An outdoor pool, walking trails, volleyball, and river frontage support swimming, paddling, paddle boarding, boating, fishing, birding, and stargazing. Kerrville sits in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, a landscape of clear limestone-bottomed rivers, juniper and live oak woodland, and cedar-covered hills that draws more visitors annually than any other inland region in the state.

Roadrunner RV Park

27 RV Sites, 9 Tent Sites

Roadrunner RV Park in Johnson City, Texas, offers 27 full-hookup pull-through RV sites and nine tent sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Every site is pull-through, next to the town's commercial district in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Twenty-seven pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp and 50-amp service, sized to 60 feet, with site WiFi. Nine tent sites cover simpler camping. A general store, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Every site pulling through is genuinely useful here, where many guests stop for a night on a Hill Country loop. Pets are welcome. On-site amenities stay practical, with horseshoes on the grounds. The park's real advantage is walkability — it sits next to Johnson City's commercial district, which puts shops, restaurants, and the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park visitor center within walking distance rather than a drive. Johnson City is the birthplace and ranch country of President Lyndon Baines Johnson, in the Pedernales River valley where working ranches, spring-fed rivers, and low juniper and live-oak hills form the landscape that shaped him. The LBJ Ranch and the national historical park are the anchor attractions, with the wider Hill Country wine and dining scene spreading out from there. Spring wildflower season and fall draw the heaviest Hill Country traffic. Reserve ahead for wildflower weekends in March and April, when the region fills.
