Lake Livingston/Onalaska KOA provides plenty of amenities, including a private beach, a marina, lakefront campsites, cable TV, fishing, a swimming pool and hot tub, and a clubhouse with a full kitchen. Large pull-through sites can accommodate big-rigs up to 100 feet.

The park offers 26 sites with water and electricity on the southern end of the park in the pet-friendly Hercules Club Loop, with sites 72-97. These sites have water and electric hookups and offer quick access to restrooms with showers nearby, as well as a dump station just up the road from the loop entrance. Each site features a picnic table, fire ring, and lantern post, and rigs up to 62 feet long can be accommodated. Many of these sites are close to the water and the sunset views are breathtaking! This loop also offers easy access to the lake and to the Trinity Trace Trail.

Lake Livingston State Park has more RV sites available in the Pin Oak Loop, which offers seven full hookup sites and 43 water and electricity sites on the northern end of the park.

The Yaupon Loop, close to the Red Oak loop along the park road, offers 37 full hookup sites, sites 1-37. These pet-friendly sites offer easy access to restrooms with showers, and each site has a picnic table, lantern post, and fire ring with grill. You'll also find hookups for sewer, water, and 50-amp electric. The Yaupon Loop is a little further from the lake and sites are large and spread out, offering privacy. This loop also offers easy access to Trinity Trace Trail, so visitors wanting a quick hike can hop on this nearby trail and enjoy a two-mile hike. If you have a larger rig, this is the loop for you since vehicles up to 75 feet long can be accommodated.

The pet-friendly Red Oak loop offers 12 full hookup sites that can be reserved. Each site features water hookups, sewer hookups, and 50-amp hookups. They also have a lantern post and fire ring with a grill, with restrooms with showers nearby. These 12 sites—numbered 38-49—are located on the west side of the Piney Shores Loop, and they can fit rigs up to 61 feet long. Those wanting to stretch their legs can hop on the nearby Trinity Trace Trail, which takes hikers through the forest and offers excellent wildlife viewing. As with the Piney Shores sites, these sites also offer very easy access to one of the park’s boat ramps and a fish cleaning station.

The Piney Shores loop offers arguably the best RV sites in the park: these 22 sites have full hookups and offer a stunning view of Lake Livingston. In addition to their premium location, these lake-front sites also feature a picnic table, lantern post, and fire ring with a grill.

Plus, the Piney Shores Loop can hold rigs up to 61 feet long, and pets are welcome.

For those hoping to stretch their legs while staying here, these sites offer easy access to Trinity Trace Trail, a two-mile trail that connects all the campsites and offers some of the park’s best wildlife viewing. Best of all, these sites are also just steps away from one of the park’s boat ramps and a fish cleaning station. You can make reservations for specific sites in this loop, so make sure to reserve in advance if you want your pick of one of these premium sites.

Situated right on the water's edge next to Piney Shores Campground, the park has 10 screened shelters. A simple screened hut with wooden floors, these shelters are ideal for visitors with their own equipment who want to camp out, but not in a tent. Eight people can be accommodated at each site, and bookings must be made for a minimum of two nights. A ladder provides access to a loft area so there is more than enough space to accommodate all eight visitors. The screened shelters have electricity and restrooms and water are available nearby. Most of the shelters are on the waterfront offering wonderful sunrise and sunset views, while the shelters that are not directly on the lake offer a quiet space to relax under the trees. All but one of the shelters have wheelchair ramps and are ADA-accessible.

There are 16 campsites in the Briar Loop, which are centrally located in the park and not far from the lake. They are also very close to many of the park's trails, making this an ideal place to camp if you're wanting to do a lot of walking. Though not suitable for RVs, these campsites sleep up to eight tent campers and each has its own picnic table. There are communal water spigots and the restrooms are a short walk away from the campsites.
