Whitney Lake

285 Corps Road 3602
Clifton, TX 76634

There are 10 Corps of Engineers parks, one state park, and three additional parks managed by Hill County or private individuals. Equestrian riders have a great place to explore rolling hills and woods in the McCown Valley Equestrian Area. Hopewell Trail, a 12.5 mile equestrian riding and multi-use trail that winds along the lake and through wildlife areas was opened in 2002. Trail riders can access the trail and stay overnight at the equestrian camping area at Plowman Creek Park.

The loop I stays in was quiet & clean. Site was level. Women’s showers need attention. T-Mobile service was excellent.

The park is nice I like the camping sites and the bathrooms were equipped with everything needed. The only issues were that the campsites needed to be mowed and there are grass burrs everywhere making it obvious that nothing has been done to eradicate the problem weeds. The bathrooms nearest s the park entrance were fine other than the fact that the men’s bathroom on the back side has no lock mechanism on the door and anyone could walk in while a camper is in the shower.

Great quiet campground. Beautiful views of Lake Whitney. Site 52 is one of our favorites. Like most ACOE campgrounds, it needs sewer added to the water and electricity.

Keep your options open

Watch for a matching campsite across monitored campgrounds in Whitney Lake.

Popularity: Very quiet

Busiest in November, when about 13% of guest capacity is reserved. Based on 5 years of reservations.
