Discover Lake Palo Pinto RV rentals for memorable road trips

Using the classic earth fill dam construction, Palo Pinto Creek slowly filled the shallow basin and formed what would become known as Lake Palo Pinto in 1969. It’s sometimes referred to as Palo Pinto Creek Reservoir. The lake not only serves as a backup power source but also supplies water to the local towns and ranches. A poorly kept secret, Lake Palo Pinto is a popular fishing spot for many locals, though it rarely gets crowded like its larger counterparts near Fort Worth and Dallas.

Getting Outdoors

With a dense blanket of hardwood trees lining the rocky shores, the lake surface remains glassy and calm on a typical Texas day. It’s a rare bad day when the afternoon wind is strong enough to ruffle the water enough to rock boats. Here and there, the shallow land rises. The rocky bluffs grants a sweeping view of the Texas prairie, and the bold adventurers yowl as they take a running leap into the lake. The fall is short, only 10 or so feet, but it’s still thrilling.

Camping at Lake Palo Pinto

Skip enduring noisy air conditioners and thin walls at hotels and get closer to nature. Unfortunately, there are no RV camping spots at Lake Palo Pinto. However, there are many private campgrounds in the area. Coffee Creek RV Resort in Santo, TX, boasts full hookups, WiFi, a small pool, and showers. Pets are allowed.

Exploring the Area

Hop into a rental motorhome and step back into time. The region is drenched in history. Pioneers who trudged westward. Cowboys who drove cattle to and from towns. People who tamed the Texas Frontier. Palo Pinto’s original County Jail is one of the few Frontier structures still standing. The jail-turned-a-museum houses hundreds of artifacts and photographs of the jailer and his prisoners. Saddles, branding irons, and other ranching gear line the walls.
