Come stay on our 100 acre Richard Creek Valley getaway, gently tucked away on the north slope. There are four campsites on the property and they are all at least 150 yards away from each other. Each site is private. When the ground is dry there is access for all vehicles. When the ground is muddy, Brookside, RiverRock, and Richardson Creek campsites require a 4-wheel drive and have alternate routes to get to them. Ancient Oaks is an all-weather site. You can enjoy hiking and swimming in Richardson Creek when water levels permit. Canoeing from Bakers Crossing put-in which is only 3 miles away.
Some places to check out while you are here include Dinosaur Valley State Park, Dinosaur World, Granbury Historic Square, Stephenville Rodeo, Bakers Crossing River Put-In, Oakdale Plunge Pool, and BigRocks Park in Glen Rose.
Please no loud noises after 9:00 pm as this is quiet time, out of respect for other campers.
This campsite offers a serene and private escape, with the soothing sound of a nearby stream and vast open skies for stargazing. Many visitors appreciate the peaceful atmosphere, the privacy provided by fenced areas, and the proximity to natural attractions like Dinosaur Valley. The campsite also features unique encounters, such as grazing cows and friendly dogs. However, some guests noted inconveniences like loud music from nearby areas and the presence of burrs for pets.
I absolutely love this campsite and location. I love the solitude and privacy of it. I honestly saw one person for the last 7 miles before I got to camp and didn’t even have to meet the host. I came to camp to get away from people and to enjoy nature and that’s exactly what I was able to do. It was so beautiful with the creek and the fire pit and the trees. Everything was lovely. I would 100% return.
Awesome place to camp! My dog was free to roam around for a bit before clipping him back on the lead. On one of the free roaming occasions he got skunked! Nasty stuff. We had to leave a day early. Keep your eyes peeled.
Perfect camping spot for me and my wife. The sound coming from the stream was relaxing to hear when we slept. The morning visitors were the icing. Definitely coming back!
It was pretty easy to find with the specific directions given. The campsite was fenced in and private. We let the dogs off leash in the fenced in area and they loved exploring. Just be aware that if you take them down to the creek, there are a ton of burrs. We have two furry dogs and the burrs were everywhere on their coat. We loved the privacy. We never heard or saw the other campers. We would love to come back again some day.
Had an amazing and peaceful time here at the site. 100% recommend and will be back
