The reviews of this place were so confusing. We decided to give it a go and I'm torn honestly. The…read morefalls are beautiful. There's a lot of nature. But it could be so much more than it is. You're a bit at the mercy of whoever is there. A lot of people were there for the day backed up to a covered spot and blaring music. There was a depressing amount of trash around. The castles are neat and after doing some web searching we found some history about them (not offered by the park itself which is odd). Some areas feel pretty unsafe. The store just sells towels, $2 water shoes for $20 and life vests. No swimming allowed today (it's still winter and because of flooding) but a lot of people were in various areas of the river. The bathrooms were spread around the upper areas and I think mostly for campers and cabin folks. No one is policing anything though. The ports potties were rank.

I just realized I forgot to add the prices so I was lazy and copied this.

Eisenhower State Park includes most of Lake Texoma lakefront businesses that make up Oklahoma's…read moreshare of the biggest local lake in north central Texas, which is about an hour's drive north on TXHWY 377N, and a day sail from Gordonville's gorgeous and lively Cedar Mills Yacht, where my family lived during the weekends and holidays, often dining with the keen Bahama 28 yacht owned by North Texas State University's Dr. Bruce P. Foster. Our ragtag racing team included Bruce and Trudy's sons, Rob and Greg + a rotating volunteer from our home church, Trinity Presbyterian Church in Denton. Apparently, from certain times of the year, the sailing vessels known as Valiant Yachts produces various forms of sailing vessels, which are often shipped to every place in the world. I worked on the foredeck, raising the colorful and elegant spinnakers for sailing quite fast pointing down wind. I love the local scene of rural communities in the north Texas and Oklahoma region and the culture of our farmers and ranchers who cultivate their cash crops and send to the local markets in Denton, Dallas, Fort Worth and mid-cities. Cheers, Mark F.

We really enjoyed a marvelous weekend at Eisenhower State park not long ago!! I definitely…read morerecommend visiting, before it gets too crazy hot. We came here in late spring. They have really nice nearby cabins along the peninsula where we stayed. There's a lot to do for the entire family, trail running, hiking, fishing etc. Plus it is a short drive up north offering the "we are not in DFW" vibe. It is worth checking out for sure!

I haven't really stayed at this park, but this is where we parked our cars to start our hike on the…read moreCross Timbers Hiking Trail. The trail head is located on the far west part of the park. There's a craptastic map of the hiking trail at the trail head, but here's a link for good one. http://www.cedarbayou.com/cross_timbers.asp The trail has a lot of inclines and declines and you can camp along the trail where where possible.

Be careful which campsite you pick, there's one or two right across the place where RVs empty their…read morewaste...ugh. I had the misfortune of standing down wind. Thank God we weren't staying there. Like Joseph B., I came to hike. I mistakenly assumed this whole area is flat, and that's what I told the 9 other people in my party. I should have looked at a few more links because almost immediately there were short but steep hills - about 10 in succession just for the first 5 miles. And that's about as far as we got before we turned back. We were exhausted, but it was worth it. Even the three marathon runners in our group said it was a good workout. Start at the W. Juniper Point trailhead, not Cedar Bayou Marina, or you will miss some of the better lake views from the trail. You can follow the trail markers to Lost Loop or cut through the Marina and continue on the Loop on the west side of the Marina. Start early because it gets pretty hot mid-day in March. I'm so excited to find good hikes in N. Texas.
