I live about 45 minutes from the park and have been multiple times. In my multiple visits, I've NEVER experienced any out of control or harassing police or rangers. I very much enjoy the park, camp areas, and fishing. We typically camp in the Wild Plum or Hawthorne areas. It is quite a hike to the best spots but we... More

When will the Texas State park system do something about these guys? How many complaints can you receive from visitors time after time? My girlfriend and I had a strange experience with the "police" at this park, AGAIN. We've camped at state parks all over Texas and have NEVER had a problem with any of the park rangers-until this place.... More

I have always loved to go camping but Ray Roberts Isle de bois state park police have ruined this park! I have supported the Texas State Parks with the state pass for the last time. I am married with kids and have been going to this park for over ten years. The last time we were at the park we... More

My kids miss the beach of So Cal, so we headed out to Ray Roberts Lake - Isle du Bois location - and it was fantastic. Clean, beautiful, and relaxing. Great way to spend a summer day! More

Hard to beat Ray Robts. St. Park. We live about 15 mins away and bought an annual pass so we go quite often. From bike riding, boating, fishing, wildlife viewing, horseback riding, they have it all. If they only had cabins!!! Great campsites. A nice swimming beach and awesome boat launch area. More

Went out for one night with some friends to the Johnson Branch Unit. We ended packing up leaving due to a Park Ranger harassing us. We all did not feel safe due to him making threats and accusing us of "hiding " alcohol from him. He definitely made us feel very unsafe. We all have families and are all professionals... More

My wife and I are volunteering at RRLSP for six months. The park is well managed, patrolled and maintained. The dedicated park staff try to make everyone's experience a pleasant one. Weekends in summer are usually crowded so the facilities can be crowded. I know from some of the other volunteers that the park frequently gets trashed by visitors who... More

I enjoyed my stay at this park for the most part. The view from my site was just ok. i had a lake front site but the underbrush between the sites and the lake caused it to have little view of the lake. the grass in the site itself was tall and uncut. Due to the price of entering the... More

We love going to this park if nothing else because it is only 30 minutes from the northern areas of DFW to our site. That means you can punch out of work at 5 and be cooking smores for dinner. The location is the best part of the park for us, but the the spots are spacious and usually secluded.... More
