Tyler State Park

Tyler State Park
Tyler, Texas

We fell in love with this park.   It is a big popular park with over 145 camping spots and 30 cabins.  The park sits on a beautiful 64 acre spring-fed lake.   The park has 100' pine trees and has lots of shade.   The park has a nice park store and a boat house that rents paddle boats, canoes, kayaks and jon boats.   The swimming area is awesome and has a swim pad about 50 yards out.   My kids loved swimming out to the pad and driving off of it.  We rented kayaks and paddleboats and have a good time exploring the lake.

The park has several very nice hiking trails and we did a nice 3 mile hike.   We also did the loop around the park on bicycles.   This was tough for the young ones.  It had several very steep hills.   My kids enjoyed the first part of the loop but hard a hard time with the inclines.

We stayed in spot #10 on the Cedar Point camping loop.   We thought the Lakeview Area #2 was awesome and next time would like to try and stay in this area.   Our site was large with a good size level pad that was in great shape.   The showers were new and in great shape.

We give this park a 10 our of 10.
