Johnson Creek Camp
Hosted by US Army Corps of Engineers
New listing
Johnson Creek Campground is situated along the banks of Lake O' the Pines in the Ark-La-Tex portion of the Pineywoods of east Texas, near Arkansas, Oklahoma and Louisiana. The gate house is open 10am-6pm Monday through Saturday and 12pm-6pm Sunday. Boating, fishing, water sports and wildlife viewing are all popular pastimes, and hunting for white-tailed deer, waterfowl and small game is available on nearby public lands. Fishing includes largemouth, spotted and white bass along with crappie, catfish and sunfish, with bank fishing along the shore and below the dam along Big Cypress Bayou. Birdwatchers are encouraged to bring their binoculars — bald eagle sightings are a common occurrence in fall and winter, and they are occasionally sighted in spring and summer. Johnson Creek features 63 RV campsites with water and electric hookups and 22 tent campsites, 10 of which have electricity. A group camping area offers a covered picnic shelter with restrooms and showers plus 12 RV campsites with water and electric hookups. Restrooms with showers are located in each section of the park, and a boat ramp, playground, swimming beach and sewer dump station are also provided. Lake O' the Pines includes about 18,700 acres of water and 9,000 acres of land, an area so large it spans five counties. It was created by the Ferrell's Bridge Dam on the Big Cypress Bayou as part of the flood control plan for the Red River Basin, and has now become a recreational oasis for outdoor enthusiasts. Other historic and tourist attractions are nearby in the towns of Jefferson and Marshall, and Texas Wildflower Trail routes run along the roads surrounding the lake.
