Great open space for nighttime stargazing!
Looking for a place to relax, this is a small, secluded, and very peaceful. A nice place to fish and hike.
A very nice small campground, recreation area, and boat ramp. There are gendered bathrooms and a hand pump for water. It's also in a low Bortle zone so astrophotography options are good. Particularly for DSO.
Nice campground with about a dozen sites right near the lake. Bortle class 3 skies are dark and great for photography (only light pollution is to the south in direction of Dallas). Great hiking trails right from the campground. This might be a "grassland" but the trails and campground are shaded by ample trees.
Nice park with scenic views of the lake. The park is one of the least light polluted parks around DFW, so I expect night skies to be just gorgeous. Will have to come back when its not cloudy. The lake was a bit dirty for swimming I feel. No beach area. Good boat ramp. Restrooms are waterless, and were not in good shape when we went. Basically emergency restroom. The campsites around have running water but no electricity. Camp sites have bbq grill, tables, and fire rings.
July 2020 update. They added a very nice fishing pier!
