Sleep, play and enjoy this wonderful Texas State Park. Its the perfect weekend getaway spot for the whole family!
This Texas State Park is in such a great location, just off Interstate 20. It’s not so close that there is a lot of traffic noise, but it’s not so far that you’re feeling you’ve gone too far down the road. It’s also close to other small West Texas cities that are worth exploring. Make this state park your home base and enjoy the area.
Sandy Campsite
Campsites don’t get much closer to the action than this. We were able to step outside our door and on to the Sandhills. If you’ve ever been to Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, you know you have to walk a bit to enjoy the dunes. We all know that walking in sand isn’t the easiest task so having the Sandhills so close was a huge bonus for us.
This park offers water and electric sites and at just 26 to choose from, you better make a reservation for your stay here. Plus, you’ll be able to pick your site and can get one close to the hills. Not all sites are created equal. Some do require a short walk.
Sand Slide
First things first…head to the park office to rent a sand disk. You can bring your own of course, but the ones they provide are perfect for sliding. They also give you some wax for your board to help make the sliding a little easier.
The Sandhills offer miles of fun. You can slide right next to the picnic area or campground. You can also take a walk to any of the hills, some reach 50 feet tall. No matter where you choose to slide, make sure you’re safe. The hills can get very hot when temperatures heat up. Enjoy!
