Granbury Wine Walk and Winter Wine Walk in the Historic Granbury Square. Walking through the park and the square is just magical at Christmastime. Easy Like a Sunday Morning is nestled just outside the city limits of Granbury, Texas (approximately 3 miles from Granbury Historic square) @ a private residence just outside the city limits. New laundry facility down the road, dump station @ Thorp Springs RV park (20 dollars), Davids Grocery store and Dollar General, all only .03 miles away.

Friends have enjoyed escaping here for years. I decided to share the zen. It's a bit rough around the edges but if the new venture succeeds it will only get better each time you visit. Patio with a view of Lake Granbury and surrounding valley of at least 3 counties.

The whole property is great to get away from everything. It was our first time camping with a travel trailer and Top of dam was a great location. Plenty of room, great scenery. We rode bikes on all the trails and all the sites were secluded and roomy. It was cold and windy but we made the most of it. We are planning on returning with a bigger group to enjoy it again and utilize more of the amenities.

We loved, loved, loved this site and really all the sites at the facility. It was amazing being right on the river, and we look forward to having many repeat trips. We purchased firewood, and it was so nice to have everything there when we arrived. We were able to have our travel trailer on the site with lots of space. Speaking of space, the distance between the sites is grand, and you do not feel like you are on top of each other. Such a better experience than other local camp sites.
You will hear cars on the road, but that is just the nature of this site. We did not mind the car sounds, and there was not a baseball game going on at the local ball park that was close to the site, as others mentioned. Just a great time of the year to go.
Enjoy, slow down, and really get away.

Don’t be put off by the bumpy road to the property. It’s a lovely riverside (creekside ) location. It was quiet, and we were provided with water, sewer hookup and 30 amp electric. We had some questions and they were answered promptly.
Great place for star gazing. We heard owls at night and lots of birdlife during the day. Possibly coyotes or foxes at night down by the creek. 😊.
We spent a few hours at the nearby Mineral Springs Fossil Park and found some great fossils! Worth the trip.
We are traveling from Maine to California and this campsite was a nice spot to relax for a few days. It’s rural but worth the effort to get there.

Five college students camped here for three nights and it was such a great experience. The property is very spacious, peaceful, and you can tell that it's really taken care of. The night skies were probably the highlight of the stay, almost no light pollution so all were visible. Even the pit toilet was surprisingly well maintained. Wasn't expecting something so nice for a tent camping set up. The site was easy to find and set tents up after dark. Everything was peaceful and I fully recommend a stay here. We will be returning one day ❤️❤️

Incredible lil camping spot. The nearby water was beautiful and the treehouse at the end of the trail was something else! Definitely would love to use this campground again for future trips. Be aware that the campsites are situated near to each other - we got lucky and were the only ones there the night of our experience.

Had a wonderful last minute visit camping with my two dogs and cat. The location was easy to get to and on site directions were straightforward and accurate. Conveniently located about 30mins outside of Weatherford. Hosts were friendly and helpful. All the primitive sites were labeled and each has a picnic table and fire ring. Sites are spaced out similar to what you would see at a state park. We stayed at “the point” right on the river bank. It was beautiful and had access to the water. I saw another review about neighbors lights and dogs bark; I am going to assume they stayed in the same site as us because it’s the farthest back on Gypsy moon also making it the closest to the neighboring rv park. I did notice the lights but you could easily reposition to avoid them and the dogs barked when we first got there and were setting up but then settled. Neither bothered us nor are these things in control of the hosts. Shower and bathroom in good working condition. Lots of chickens, geese and goats out near the rvs but none wandered over to primitive camping. Didn’t go in or inquire about bait shop so nothing to review but did see firewood for sale. Overall very good value for the price and I will gladly return if I’m in the area again.

I loved camping at Deer Creek! The waterfall was really neat & the camping sites are remote. Communication was excellent as well! We checked in after 9 & John was still available to answer questions. We look forward to visiting again in the spring.

We loved tent camping on Amy's land! Everyone very kind and the area is beautiful and relaxing we had a wonderful time fishing and just being outdoors in nature. It reminded me of childhood spent on my grandparents farm. With all the goats, chickens and ducks etc.

Overview
About
Hidden in the heart of Texan cattle country, Lake Mineral Wells State Park is a natural playground for outdoor activities, both on land and water. Cut your teeth at the natural rock climbing area, where the top-rope climbs and rappels are suitable for all levels. Next, discover the 20-mile trailway that leads through the hills to Weatherford—you can hike, bike, or even horseback ride, stopping to picnic along the way. Still have energy to spare? Head to the lake to swim, paddle, or fish, and look out for white-tailed deer or waterfowl along the nature trails.
Notable campgrounds
- Best for horseback Hipcampers: Cross Timbers Camping Area has 20 tent sites suitable for hikers and equestrians, plus direct access to the Cross Timbers Back Country Trail.
- Best for backcountry camping: The primitive camping area has undefined, hike-in campsites with no facilities, so bring everything you need.
- Best for RVs: Live Oak Camping Area has 50-amp hookups and plenty of amenities, as well as some wheelchair-accessible campsites.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- You can reserve campsites and screened shelters at the park’s four campgrounds via the Texas State Parks website.
- Campsite reservations open five months in advance.
- Primitive campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and you must arrive two hours before dusk to be accepted.
- Campsites can book up fast, especially for summer and holiday weekends—book as early as possible, especially if you have a large RV or a particular site in mind.
When to go
Lake Mineral Wells State Park is open year-round, but the trails and rock climbing areas may be closed in periods of wet weather. Peak season runs from mid-March through mid-November, and weekends can be busy during this period. While summer is the best season for swimming and water sports, springtime is the most colorful time to hike, when the trails bloom with wildflowers like coreopsis and bluebonnet.
Know before you go
- Lake Mineral Wells State Park is located 48 miles west of Fort Worth, or about a 50-minute drive away.
- Park entrance fees are required in addition to camping fees, and general entrance reservations can be made up to one month in advance.
- Facilities in the park include restrooms, picnic areas and pavilions, fishing piers, a dump station, playgrounds, a boat ramp, a bird blind, and a designated swimming area. You can purchase groceries and camping supplies in Mineral Wells, a 10-minute driveaway.
- You can bring your own boat to the lake, or rent a flat-bottom boat, canoe, kayak, paddleboard, or rowboat. Water-skiing, tubing, and jet skis are not permitted on the lake.
- There are wheelchair-accessible restrooms, campsites, and fishing piers in the park. Parts of the trailway are also accessible.

It's 2-2 1/2 miles either route to get to the primitive campsites, but the remoteness makes it worth it

The campsites here are larger since this in a equestrian site and great for larger families. The trail head for the primitive sites is also located here. So if you want to do day hikes or lounge in camp, this is a great place to stay. The cons to this site are, sometime the horses can be a little noise at night, and you will have to dive to the south end of the lake to fish or enjoy the water. Overall this is the area I prefer to camp when I come to this park.
