Trail Notes

What we noticed on the ground

In late July I paid a visit to Waxahachie Creek Park on Bardwell Lake. I was shocked to see the extensive damage and neglect that was pervasive throughout Waxahachie Creek Park. The setting of Waxahachie Creek Park is so beautiful and serine it was so very sad to see all of the damaged trees and neglected facilities. I just wonder what happened at Waxahachie Creek Park. I only spent one day camping at Waxahachie Creek Park, but I would enjoy spending more time camping and fishing Bardwell Lake. Come along with me as I explore Waxahachie Creek Park on Bardwell Lake,.

Mapped with our U.S. Army Corps Of Engineers stops.

Campnab

Want the best campsite?

I do too.

I want the right site, on the right dates — not just whatever happens to be left when I make the reservation.

That's why I use Campnab.

I tell Campnab the campground, my dates, and the sites I'm looking for. If one of those sites opens up, Campnab lets me know.

Then it's up to me to grab it through the campground's reservation system.

Campnab doesn't book the campsite for me. It watches for the opening so I don't have to.

👉 Have Campnab watch for your campsite.
