East Fork (TX)

Great place to stay when visiting the Dallas area. Although you're pretty close to the city area, at the park still feels isolated and quiet. The roads in and out of the park are best taken slowly, but they aren't too bad and can be easily managed regardless the size of your setup. The individual sites are pretty good, most of them are fairly level although the pavement isn't in the best condition. We never use the local restrooms, so can't speak to their condition. Be sure to watch the time though when out doing fun things. They close the gate to the park at 10PM every night, so you'll have to park outside the gate and walk in after that. It's only been a consideration for us once, and not that big a deal, just something to remember. We'll stay here again, and it is our go to place when we visit family in that area.

Overall a nice facility.

The dump station outside the gate is an absolute pain and also means that you cannot dump when the gate is closed and get back into the campground. It needs to be moved inside the gate.

Park host was excellent. Road has been repaved.
Park has lots of ant beds and spiders around tables. RV pads are in need of repairs.
Site 48 has huge ruts in rv pad and drainage problems. It is a mud hole.

Dogs need to be leashed. Road improvements were great. Staff was friendly.

This campground needs more trees! The sites are too open. Why does the main gate not open until 10 am? I understand locking it at 10 pm but why does it not open at 7 am?

I love it. Beautiful view of Lake Lavon and plenty of open space

Great place. Flush toilets with showers.

Nice spacious campsites and peaceful setting. Close to town.

The campsites at East Fork are very large, flat, great views. There is 50 amp electricity, and water at each site., There is plenty of room to park tow cars even with long rigs. The Hosts were very pleasant and helpful.
