About Murrell Park

Murrell Park offers day use facilities, boat ramp access and primitive camping on scenic Grapevine Lake, in the middle of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex in Texas. The lake has become a premier recreation destination for the Southwest and offers some of the best camping, fishing and boating in Texas. This facility is open year-round, but particularly in hot summer months, the cool water provides a refreshing break from the Texas heat.

Terrific space, perfect spot to access the water as well! Just be careful as the rocks are sharp - however it has a sold rock base where people can relax in about waist deep water! Good times!

Campsite 25 had a great view of the lake. No shade, but a nice breeze. Easy walk to a rocky shore. Pleasant. Relatively private.

Very nice park, lots of shade trees around the campsite keeping it shady and cool. Water and electric at the campsite. Very friendly staff at the reception gate, the toilets could have used an update. A very pleasant week there!
