Favorite Camping Spots

[UNTLifer]

Any campers on here?  My boys and I like to camp and get away for the weekends.  Anybody on here have some favorite spots they would care sharing?  My favorites to date:

1.  Palo Duro Canyon.  Make sure you go during the cooler months as it can get extremely hot. Unbelievable views and the hike to the Lighthouse is a bucket list item for Texans.

2.  Colorado Bend State Park.  Pretty remote, right on the Colorado River, Gorman Falls, mountain biking, Spicewood Springs.

3.  Cloudcroft, NM

Daingerfield state park is very pretty, especially in fall.  But the lake is fantastic for swimming and non-motorized boating too.  One of our favorites. 

Eisenhower SP on Texoma is a good one, particularly if you like climbing.  Boulder climbing there is a big thing.

It's a little out of the way for most of our posters here, but lately I've been taking the kids to Shawnee National Forest in southern Illinois.

 

 

Plenty of diverse hikes and secluded camping.

There's a nice couple of lakes in Southwestern CO, Shaw Lake and Big Bear Reservoir.  There are also some camping spots in SW Johnson Co, where the Hill Country starts.
