Overview

Twin Dikes Park is located on the waters of the Sam Rayburn Reservoir, in the Piney Woods of southeast Texas.

The region lies in the migration path of warblers, vireos, and other species of neotropical migrants, so spring is an opportune time for birders to visit the park.

Recreation

The lake is a highly popular recreation destination for boating and fishing. Game fish include largemouth bass, bluegill and channel catfish. The abundance of bass in the lake, has inspired more than 300 annual tournaments.

Facilities

The park features 48 campsites with 30 to 50 amp electric hookups, hot showers, a group picnic shelter and boat ramp.

Natural Features

Twin Dikes is on the southern shore of Sam Rayburn Reservoir, in the Big Thicket region of Texas, the densest portion of the Piney Woods, a region characterized by temperate coniferous forests.

The 114,000-acre lake was impounded in 1965 along the Angelina River, and has an average depth of 80 feet with average clarity.

Nearby Attractions

The 20,700-acre Bannister Wildlife Management Area is on the northern peninsula of the lake. Hikers and bikers can come here to explore the designated Eastern Wild Turkey restoration site.

The campsites hadn't been mowed lately. Luckily, i had a weedeater. Several camp drives, #34 in particular, need asphalt repairs, gets worse each visit. We love the park and can't wait for the lake to fill up.

Camped at Twin Dikes at Lake Sam Rayburn, the other day, camping was great, but I must say the up keep of the park is terrible, grass hasn't been mowed in weeks, make the park look bad.

I was on site 5 doing a "shakedown" camp with my new Trailer. Good view of the lake and overall it was a good trip. The downsides were that the ground was much lower than the pavement causing the step into the camper to become a leap! Besides that the campground and it's building were not in the best shape. I never looked at the bathrooms but the buildings looked like they could use a little TLC. I never saw a COE employee while I camped there (6 days). I take it that the "camp host" takes care of everything. That Said, I enjoyed my self and there was no distractions like noise or fast moving vehicles on the loop. I would stay there again.
