  • At the close of summer 2022 I found myself exploring public campgrounds in the Angelina Forest. Deep in the heart of the Texas Big Thicket there are several “hidden gem” campsites. I stumbled upon two of them on this journey, Boykin Springs and Caney Creek Recreation area.
    I was quite surprised to find that there was an actually campground at Boykin Springs! When researching online the only real info about the place was that it was a summertime swimming hole. When I arrived I was very surprised to find that there was a beautiful yet completely empty campground that was complete with a modern shower facility! I did say, empty, not a single camper in site! This is truly a hidden gem of a campsite!
    My next surprise was finding a developed campground on Google maps, Caney Creek recreation area, I was so excited to explore this location that was about as remote as you can get in east Texas but that excitement quickly turned to disappointment upon arrival only to find that the park seems to be forgotten to time.
    Join me as I explore these two beautiful but forgotten public campgrounds in the Angelina Forest!

    Wow! I bet at one time both of those locations, before they fell in disrepair, were really nice.

    Hi Bob have you ever thought about having a meet up at a state park, We could take over a camping Loop and it'd be nothing but Dude RV viewers lol then have a meet and greet. I think it would be a lot of fun, just an idea I would definitely be there.

    Bob Barker I too like the idea of you having a following. I'm close to new Caney now. I'm headed to Eureka Springs Arkansas for the passion play. Then I'm coming back through on my way back to South Texas. I want to go to the Texas country reporter fair in Waxahachie next weekend (29'th). I also have to go to Denton for a night .
    I sure would get my little red wagon and caravan or meet up with you and other fans. OriginAL
