Except for the previous two years, I usually come here every New Year's Day for the First Day Hike…read more It was incredible, as usual! Angela Bright was the Ranger for the more challenging hike versus the other more moderate hike. There was a story-telling hike afterwards, but I ran out of steam. The pace of the hike was fairly easy-going; however, there plenty of ups and downs on the hiking path. On my way out to go home, I shopped at the park store. If you live in the area, please become a patron of this particular park.

What a great way to spend a day! Just an hour and a half outside of Dallas, you can immerse…read moreyourself in the time when dinosaurs ruled the earth! There's actual dinosaur tracks preserved in the rock at Dinosaur Valley State Park, and that just adds even more fun to the experience! We went for the day and the entrance fee was $8 per adult. They accept cards and cash at the Ranger Station. Prior to arriving I tried to buy tickets online, but I kept only seeing tickets for overnight camping. Nonetheless, we were still able to pay at the entrance and we were even able to get out and use the restroom facilities at the entrance. Once you pay your entrance fee, a ranger will give you a trail map. There is ample parking inside the park, so there are lots of possibilities on where to start your adventure. We started on the Pawluxy River trail and crossed over to the main track site where the dinosaur prints are very clear. The river crossing has slightly protruding rocks that you have to navigate on foot to get across the river. I wore hiking boots and I think this was ideal for the environment. From there we switched to the overlook trail where the elevation is 850 ft, so you get a great view of the whole Pawluxy River Valley. From there we descended to the Black-capped Vireo Trail, then crossed the Pawluxy River to make our way back to our car. While there's endless combinations of hikes you can take, ours took about 3 hours. Along the way there were lots of people. Mostly gathered at the river and at the tracks. The rest of the trails were actually very quiet and peaceful. In addition to hiking, there are other points of interest. There are dinosaur models, a swimming hole and of course multiple dinosaur track sites. Overall, Dinosaur Valley is a great state park with something for everyone!

We made a reservation online since it was around spring break and their Facebook site was showing they were selling out. We arrived around 8:45 and it wasn't crowded at all. We stopped in the Dino store for some water and the cashier gave us some tips on trails to check out. The water levels were higher than when they recommend visiting (summer). We brought water shoes with us and walked in the water in some of the shallow parts right next to million year old tracks! What an experience for our family. By the time we were leaving, the park was filling up quick. We drove around and checked out the playgrounds and camp sites. It would be awesome to camp out in the park. It gave us ideas for our next trip.

Was offered four days of camping in return for sitting through a one and half hour sales…read morepresentation. Sat down and went through the different parks and amenities. Then were told it was just $16,900 for a membership to just Tres Rios and that nobody ever took that one because take a guess at how much it is for a membership to include all their resorts. Cmon take a guess, no really take a guess. $20,000, $25,000 maybe $30k. Not even close!!! It's the same price!!!!!How amazing is that? How can this be? Oh the insanity of these folks to sell all of that for the same price as just the one. No wonder anyone ever took the deal with just one resort! Tried a soft close then went and looked at the resort. Then came back and tried another close. When still resisted the awesomeness of this deal, they brought in the The Closer, the manger, the magic man, the man that could make things happen. Have you ever seen the old movie "Used Cars"? Do these morons think nobody has sat and listened to a cheesy used car salesman before. Because he liked us so much. I felt so special and unique. He offered us not only Tres Rios but a resort in Oklahoma and wait there's more. All the other resorts plus access to all Coast to Coast resorts. And all this for guess how much? Cmon you guessed so bad last time give it another try. Ok I won't make ton wait anymore. All that for $8000. I sat there and thought you MFers tried to sell me at $16,000 and then come in at $8k. Wow what a sleezy sales tactic. Then tells me if money is a problem I can finance with only half down. I assure him that money was not the issue. We would never use enough to justify not to mention they tried to bend me over. He kept talking about money and even the girl that had showed us around even stated telling him money wasn't the issue. He was getting pissed and dug deep telling me I owed it to my family to take them on vacations and leave this membership to them when I died. Told him I have 3 grown ass kids that none of them like to camp or stay in RV Parks. They have left home and can pay for their own vacations. He just could not believe that I wasn't falling or his superior sales tactics and pitches. Sad part of it is the girl that gave us the tour and was our sales person was doing well and I might have bought from her. The whole thing was very unpleasant. Oh yeah they tell you upfront there's no high pressure or arm twisting to buy. Now about the park. It's nice. In between three rivers like the name says. Gave us a site that was all dirt. You'd think if your wanting to sell someone you'd give them a nice spot. Office folks were hit or miss. We're really friendly upon arrival but went back another day and seemed stressed because of phone calls and were short that day. The resort has live oaks and pine trees Only one shower building with two showers each for men and women. Pretty clean considering public restrooms/showers. It's not a bad place to spend a few days. Just know your going to sit through an ass beating sales presentation. Good place for kids as have a play ground and they can play in Squaw Creek as well as adults can sit in lawn chairs in the creek. Just remember to put your adult beverages in a cup that is not glass anywhere other than your camp site. Most of the other guests were friendly. Just don't step foot on anyone's else's camp site. Some folks take that stuff serious.

We have been members here for more than a decade and we have enjoyed the park several times a year…read more The park looks the best we've ever seen it. Pool is glistening, lots of fresh paint on the cottages and fences, and the grass is green and well maintained. We were greeted by Angie who offered a huge smile and a hug. She ushered us to a shady campsite and the customer service has been wonderful. The activity schedule is full of fun and the park quests are friendly and quiet. Plenty of room for our 42' fifth-wheel and two trucks. The park is nestled in-between three rivers (thus the name, Tres Rios). We have totally enjoyed our stay and our membership!

The covered tables and multiple trash cans made grilling and relaxing easy. The bathrooms were ok but resembled prison style metal toilets. If you are going to camp here at night, expect a lake party. Loud music past midnight and out of control kids running around until midnight are the norm. One family pulled up around 10:30 with 3 cars, let their kids run wild, were loud and did not go home until after midnight. Daytime use is fine. If you want peace and quiet at night, go somewhere else.

As soon as I drove into the front entrance, I stopped in the office in order to print the day pass I purchased online yesterday. All three ladies were extremely friendly and helpful.

Each path was clearly visible so as not to get lost or off the marked walkway. I even spent some time in one of the day use areas to read this month's issue of Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine. What a way to finish enjoying such a wonderful park. Please check out!

If you enjoy boating they also have a dock area as well as a pavilion to bring your picnic baskets or cooler etc. They have a main entrance where they check you in but it is a free park to the public. There's also a cute marina café and other things to explore. Come enjoy and get your nature on now that the weather is cooling off.

A couple areas, my ass! We were running up on a sandbar more than once and one time it was really bad. My friend that was with me, could not stand up in the shallow water, and he just kept falling. We finally got him back in the tube in that area and got to another area where I could see for a long way that it was very shallow and I knew there was going to be issues. We tried and tried to get him to stand up and he just couldn't. This went on for quite a while. I finally went for my phone to call for help and a gentleman came down from the bank and asked if we needed help. He was kind enough to help my friend get to the exit on the river. I have never been so frustrated and so tired in all of my life. On top of trying to help my friend, I was struggling because I have cancer. I will never float down this river again using this company. He supposed 4 1/2 hour float down the river turned into almost 7 hours! Do not use this company.
