Hickory Creek sits on the extremely popular Lewisville Lake near Dallas, Texas. The almost 30,000-acre reservoir attracts a fair amount of visitors in summer months with warm water temperatures and excellent fishing opportunities.
Visitors at Lewisville Lake enjoy picnicking, swimming, boating, fishing and relaxing. Photographers will stay entertained with wildlife and colorful sunsets, while hikers and bikers like to explore the 50 miles of natural surface and paved trails surrounding the lake.
The large campground boasts 121 sites with electric hookups. Tent primitive walk-in sites are not available at this time. Park amenities include hot showers, a dump station, and boat ramp.
The lake stems from the Elm Fork of the Trinity River in northern Texas, and offers little visibility, but plenty of room for boating and watercraft.
The park sits on the Hickory Creek Arm of Lewisville Lake, very near to the suburbs of Dallas, Texas.
Several public golf courses are located around the lake, and horseback riding opportunities are available, too. Hickory Creek is just 35 miles away from downtown Dallas.
Due to construction on the I-35E bridge, the directions to the campground have changed if approaching from the north. Take I-35E south to Exit 460 - Meadow Oaks Rd/ Corinth Parkway. Stay on the I-35E access road heading south, go through the red light at Swisher Rd. Turn right onto Ventana Rd, go to the stop sign and turn left onto Point Vista Road. The campground is 1201 Point Vista Road, Hickory Creek, TX 75065.
