The park is on Park Road 25, located four miles southwest of Mathis off of State Highway 359, and 35 miles northwest of Corpus Christi.
Nice quiet state park. There is plenty of room to run around play with your dogs, kids & friends. There are is a boat ramp. Lots of room around the lake to get yourself a waterfront spot without being right next to someone else. You can’t drink alcohol in public so even a Koozy won’t fool the park staff. Sticker burs are a bit of a problem in some areas. Bring your picnic. The water is fresh and feels so good.
What a treasure our Texas State Parks are! Lake Corpus Christi State Park, in particular. The park has so many amenities and activities to enjoy. The lake is beautiful and is full of fish! Many camping options are available, including tent, RV with water, and electric and sewer hookups available. Also primitive structures to camp in at a reasonable price. I really enjoyed exploring the "Castle" and kayaking the lake.
Lake Corpus Christi is a great place to enjoy the nature and birdwatching. The entry fee was 5 USD/person for a day trip. However, there are options for camping, fishing etc. They have couple of fishing piers, good restrooms and plenty of parking spots. The nesting area and the old historical landmark along with the overlook is also pretty cool.
Wow! We camped here for 11 nights and loved every moment. Deers everywhere. Incredibly peaceful. It’s Heaven on earth here! Big rig friendly but the turn into the spots is a bit tricky. Totally worth it for a state park.
Great state park. The lake is very low but still beautiful. All camp sites are asphalt with concrete pads. Van's burger and soda bar is a great place to grab a bite and a cocktail or beer. Not much siteseeing nearby, but very enjoyable place to escape the busy city life. I did find a school house built in 1925 on one of my outings. They only have 2 short trails to walk, but walking the roads around the park was a nice way to pass the day. They have cabins you can rent or tent and rv sites.
