Secluded Camping near Lake Whitney State Park, Texas

Andrea Heneghan:

What a wonderful last minute family vacation... the sunset over the firepit every night, the kayaking, cooking outside in the "kitchen", the hiking and views all made it such a special trip. The well appointed, rediculously clean, spacious, and quiet camp site made it easy to get into nature with three kids (5, 7, and 9 yrs old). I think what really topped it off was how friendly, helpful, and laid back Larry and Christine were. They helped us do everything we wanted and gave us the perfect space to do nothing!! Their daughter Kay even took our kids on a little trip of their own one afternoon which they loved, and it gave us some peace and quiet. Larry gave us a tip to use a hollow log on the fire creating a fire-nado to cook our smores on and he brought my girls a baby garden snake he found (they named her Daisy). Overall, these are fabulous hosts with a fabulous site and we will be returning! Oh, and I was actually shocked at how few mosquitoes there were. I never saw the industrial zapper, but it must work!

We had a fantastic time in our tiny house. It was peaceful and secluded, yet it was close to many activities and attractions. We loved being able to sit outside at night and enjoy the stars and eat our breakfast outside as well. We were cozy, as with 4 of us we had to leave our suitcases in the car, but that was OK. The only suggestions I would offer would be to have a few extra towels and washclothes. There were 4 of us and we only had 3 towels, luckily we had a few extras in our car. I would also recommend a fitted sheet for the futon when it is used for sleeping. We loved our tiny house experience and would gladly do it again and would recommend to others!

Our experience was wonderful. We were looking to get away and really unplug and that was exactly what we got. Not internet, no crowds, not rushing. It was great! We were there midweek and had the camp virtually to ourselves. The staff was so accommodating. They helped us with whatever we needed and then some. We can't wait to find time to go back again.
