Camping at Loyd Park

We didn't get enough from our camping last September because of the hot weather, so we decided to do a fall camping at Loyd Park in Grand Prarie, TX. This is a peaceful and beautiful park on the shores of the 7,000 acre Joe Pool Lake. It offers a wide variety of activities for campers including fishing, swimming, hiking and biking. The terrain is flat and heavily treed with campsites near the water as well as off the water in the trees. It has 221 very spacious and well maintained campsites complete with water and electric hookup, fire ring and covered picnic table.

Loyd Park is such a great choice for anyone looking for some camping fun!

Cooper Lake State Park Camping

This year, we had our summer camping at Cooper Lake State Park which is a 3,026 acre-park  situated in Northeast Texas.  This prime recreational area contains a 19,300 acre lake and two units, Doctors Creek Unit, 715.5 acres, located in Delta County, and South Sulphur Unit, 2,310.5 acres, located in northern Hopkins County. 

We had a great time at South Sulphur Unit which offers 14 fully furnished lakeside cabins, 21 screened shelters, 89 water and electric campsites and 20 equestrian campsites as well as a 10.5 mile equestrian trail. The park also has fishing piers, two boat ramps and a large pavilion.

   

I would recommend Cooper Lake State Park - South Sulphur Unit to anyone who is looking for the ultimate fishing, hiking, camping, all around family and friends fun place!
