Make the Drive: Three Great Spots for Camping Near Sherman, TX

Near Sherman, TX, there are some wonderful camping spots you’ll enjoy visiting. Whether your idea of a great camp experience involves roughing it in the wilds or having access to hot showers and a convenience store, our area has something that works.

Eisenhower State Park

For $20-23 a night, you can take an RV in, and there are 50 sites with full hookups and another 45 with electricity and water hookups but no sewer. All sites have picnic tables, fire rings, and nearby restrooms, and the pricier ones also have a lantern post as well. If you’re coming in a tent, for $17 a night you can have a spot with a lantern post, picnic table, tent pad, fire ring, close restrooms, and access to fresh water in the Elm Point area. Over at the Armadillo Hill or Fossil Ridge spots, you’ll pay slightly less at $15 a night.

All of these sites are by reservation only. There are overflow spots available for $12 a night that are first-come, first-served. Bear in mind that all the prices listed are in addition to the park entrance fee, which is $5 per adult as of 2023. Children are free. If you prefer to glamp it up just a bit, the park also has one cabin you can rent for $55 a night.

Burns Run West

Head to Burns Run West on Lake Texoma to camp, fish, hunt, and hike: and there’s plenty of room here. They have a wide variety of options, including RV sites for anywhere from $110 for a group site that offers electric hookups, to $24 for a standard electric single hookup. They have 117 campsites for families, and 105 of these have hookups. They’ve got vault toilets, showers, and drinking water, three dump stations, and a nearby playground for the kids, boat ramp for you, and beach and hiking at the Cross Timber trail for everyone.

Ray Roberts Lake State Park

Head west to get to Ray Roberts Lake State Park, which has lots of great hiking and biking options. They have a whopping 219 camp sites that offer electric and water hookups, all with access to nearby restrooms, outdoor grill or fire ring, and picnic table. There are also 123 more primitive campsites that are still decent walking distance from restrooms and have nearby water. There are also a limited number of equestrian sites with tie-ups for your horse.

Fit everything you need for your adventure into a brand-new Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. There’s no limit to where you can go in one of these, and you can see yours at Freedom Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram North by Ed Morse.
