Property is on the farm where I grew up about 9 miles northeast of Glen Rose off of Highway 67. It has various trees on property with cedar, live oak, post oak, etc. Campsites are in front of a wide waterfall which is about 5 feet in height. You can fall asleep with the sound of the waterfalls! We have three ground tent sites and two 14 by 14 deck sites if you want to be up off the ground. Each site has a fire ring and electricity. There are well-marked trails across the creek which go to a meadow and a big treehouse I built several years ago. Glen Rose has several restaurants known for barbecue and Mexican food. Granbury is 25 minutes away with lots of shopping and restaurants around their historic town square. Glen Rose also has a town square.

Beautiful place to tent camp with the family. We had a great time here for 4 nights listening to the waterfall.

This was an amazing spot. Mostly private, only 5 spots total. The waterfall was beautiful and made amazing background noise. The family and I rarely visit the same spot twice, but we are all talking about coming back.

Stay was nice and you can tell he puts a lot of effort into his campsite! It was so cold the water wasn’t working though and that was kind of a bummer but everything else was great

Instructions to camp ground were easy to follow, John clearly explained how everything worked in an email leading up to our stay. The camp area was clean and well maintained, my kids have already asked when we can go back!
