Camping around the Metroplex?

Any suggestions of places for tent camping outside/around the metroplex that are good for a quick weekend trip?

Re: Camping around the Metroplex?

  • When my DH goes camping with his brothers they normally go to Possum Kingdom lake area.  I went up last time and it was really nice.
  • We've been camping several times up around Lake Ray Roberts.  There are some great facilities up there  :)

     I second this!  Our boat dealership is on Lake Ray Roberts and they have two state parks with great facilities.  The lake is pretty quiet and very family friendly (unlike Lake Lewisville!).   Isle du Bois State Park is at that south end of the lake and Johnson Branch State Park is at the north end.

    I've never camped at either one but we've driven through both parks to get to the boat ramps.

  • We just got back from Lake Ray Roberts it's the second time we have been there.  It's Awesome.   Great Bike Trails, lots to do.  Highly recommend it! 
  • Another recommendation for Lake Ray Roberts. We stayed at the Johnson Branch Unit this past weekend. Great faciliites and not too far from home.
