    Our first time staying at this RV park. We stayed in "A" Loop as there were more trees and it seemed more secluded than the others. Being winter, there were very few people in the park. We were one of only three RVs in A loop the whole two weeks we were there. The spaces are gravel, pretty level with room between campers. They had just enough room for our 42' fifth wheel and dually pickup. Every site has a picnic table. It seems everyone picks up after their animals because we never saw any problem with that. There are no fire rings, but propane fire-pits are allowed. The office was large and very nice with a theater room off to one side for family movie nights. The employees were very friendly and knowledgeable. There's an activity building further back in the park. It has clean bathrooms, games and puzzles, tons of books, an old worn out piano, and more. The laundry room was nice, 4 washing machines and 4 dryers, all $2 each. The pool and hot tub looked awesome. We were too cold and didn't want to get in swimsuits for the hot tub, but others were in there and seemed very comfortable. There are several social things planned by the office each week, even though we had other things going on and couldn't attend. Cell and streaming service worked great with our ATT hotspot. The ONLY reason I'm not giving this place 5 stars is because the roads are badly in need of repair. We were told that the public areas like bathrooms, office, laundry, etc will be getting updates soon. Once that is done, then the roads are going to be redone. They're full of potholes and just all around miserable. We will be back to this park even if the roads aren't finished yet. We loved it out there! We greatly enjoyed getting to know Wendy Fox who helped us figure out the best Thousand Trails membership package for 2023 and beyond. We wanted to upgrade from the basic package we'd had last year. A pleasant experience without a hard-sell attitude from her. On this visit, we had to pay a $3 per night surcharge for 50 amp, however in the future all sites will be 50 amp and there will be no surcharge.

    I've been to several thousand trails campgrounds this year and this one is by Far the worst! The roads are horrific. Potholes everywhere. The road hasn't been repaved since it was first built and the shoddy patchwork they do to fill in the pot holes actually makes it worse. You have to pay extra for a 50 amp site and even if you don't need one the scarce full hookup sites are first come first serve. The main office team were pleasant enough when I arrived but they started hounding me (meaning calling and tracking me down on a golf cart) for a package payment not 2 hours into my stay. And let me preface that by stating that they told me to find my site and set up before returning with my site number and package payment. Plus at least 40% of the sites are "under maintenance" as it is so the pickings are even slimmer. Adding on top that I just found out the entire laundry room is unavailable until further notice and the office is closed on weekends so I can't even call to ask questions. Stay here at your own risk!!!! Edit: I've been here for 2 weeks, leaving tomorrow, and the laundry room is still out of order with no news from the main office.

Luckily for us we did have kids who were complaining of being tired by the midway point of it, so it is perfect for families. But if you are an avid hiker who hikes for miles and miles, this is not the spot. We did go to the beach to look around, but didn't get in as it is winter right now and was at 30-50 degree weather. It is a beautiful place, very clean and well kept. If you are coming in with family, this is perfect, but if you want to hike, this is not your spot.

As soon as I drove into the front entrance, I stopped in the office in order to print the day pass I purchased online yesterday. All three ladies were extremely friendly and helpful. They showed me the key highlights of the park on the map. Then I shopped their merchandise in the park store. The trails were very well maintained and laid out. Each path was clearly visible so as not to get lost or off the marked walkway. I even spent some time in one of the day use areas to read this month's issue of Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine. What a way to finish enjoying such a wonderful park. Please check out!

    This park truly feels like once in a lifetime experience! I…read moredon't hike often, however, felt this was a worthwhile trip. We decided to head there in the morning. It was about an hour drive from Fort Worth, and it's eight dollars per person to enter the park. Your access gives you the ability to visit all national parks for the period in which you bought your ticket so 24 hours total. There's various trials you can do, we ultimately ended up doing two, and the moderate one is quite difficult due to the terrain. However, the overlook was a straightforward trail with a beautiful view at the end. I would say the times a lot to each trail are accurate, you wanna ensure you get there early because it does get hot in mind you it is Texas in the summertime. We packed lots of snacks, and had our water. We also took some time to dip our feet in and look at the Dino tracks up close. There's so many ways you can spend your day here, however, some quick exercise, and beautiful views definitely doesn't go wrong! You also get the opportunity to learn lots, and we took the time to take all the knowledge we could by reading through the exhibit in the welcome center. (:

    Walking near the footsteps of creatures so many millions of years old is unbelievably fun- and our…read moregroup went there in hot summer. Not easy to climb but the value is unmatched. There was also the cutest little gift shop with the best merchandise. Highly recommended if one is able to meet the mild physical demands (one of us stayed up in the park on top instead of going into the valley where the dinosaur footprints are preserved.
