  • RV Camping at Texas State Parks: Martin Creek Lake State Park
    Join us as we travel to the Pineywoods of East Texas to visit Martin Creek Lake State Park. While it may be one of the smaller Texas state parks, Martin Creek Lake is a favorite for fishing and boating, but is also home to some beautiful hiking trails.
    This state park, built and operated by Texas Parks and Wildlife, is located on Martin Creek Lake near the cities of Longview, Marshall, Carthage, Henderson and Kilgore TX.
    To see more on our visit to Martin Creek Lake State Park, along with photos and a ton of details about the park, check out our Martin Creek Lake State Park Visitors' Guide: rvtexasyall.co... .
    We filmed this video before when we owned our Tiffin Breeze and Jeep Wrangler. It is part of the footage that we thought we lost, but have recently rediscovered (along with our video on the South Sulphur Unit of Cooper Lake State Park: • Cooper Lake State Park... ). Here are some of the videos where we chronicle our move from our Tiffin Breeze to our Newmar New Aire:

    As Native Texans and full-time RVers, we want to road trip from the beaches of the Gulf Coast to the canyons of the Texas Panhandle, the mountains of West Texas, and everywhere in between. Texas is home to forests, rivers, lakes, caverns, hills, grassy plains, and so much more. The history, the food, the culture, the nature... We want to explore it all and share it with you!
    Join us as we explore the Great State of Texas and Beyond one campground at a time because we want us all to experience life, not just live it!
    Safe Travels and Happy Camping y'all!

    Happy Sunday! We hope you enjoyed this visit to Martin Creek Lake State Park! If you'd like to see more about this state park: more about our visit, pictures and details about camping at the park, check out our Martin Creek Lake State Park Visitors' Guide: rvtexasyall.com/region-texas-pineywoods/campgrounds/martin-creek-lake-state-park . Like our Cooper Lake State Park video, this is the other video footage that we had lost and recently found. If you'd like to see more about our transition from our Tiffin Breeze to our Newmar New Aire, check the description of this video. We've included links to all of those videos there. 😀

      One of our favorite sites due to only 20 minutes from home. Once a month there was a dutch oven group that met there before covid. Hope they get going again. Thanks for the tour and comments. Looking forward to another pellet grill video.

    Hey Y'all, Thank you so much for sharing your journeys. We started rving a year ago and have learned so much from yall. We watch one of your videos, then book the state park! We're booked out to July on your state park recommendations. Haven't been disappointed yet. You two have been such an inspiration for so many. Best wishes to you both on your next journey, look forward to seeing you again. 😀

    Thought it was deja vu, as there is a Martins Creek, PA, and it also has a power plant on the Delaware River. Not the same I know, but made me look.

    Made me smile. I kept looking at the date thinking I might have clicked on a older video that popped up. 😁😁 Good to have stuff in the can.
    Some friends may be at Stella Mare RV Resort. They have a King Aire and are towing a Jeep. So they are jeep people to. Carl is hard to miss he is about 6'8".
    We are leaving for the west on 3/03 hope to see you in Tucson.

    Hey guys great video. Here in the Great Smoky Mtns of NC, trees like were bent over and staked until they took on the shape. They usually signify a trail intersection or boundry.

    Hey out there. I have been watching you silently from Canada for quit some time. I really like your happy spirit and simple no drama style.
    I am wondering how hard is it to book a stay in a Texas stat park at this time of the year. Soon I will retire (at 56) and will be looking to avoid the snow.

    • @rvamericayall
      @rvamericayall  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You need to book RV Parks 6 -18 months ahead for long term stays. (Stays of 30 days or more)

    I love pecan pie! As a matter of fact it is my number one choice followed closely by coconut cream pie. I would have to see the leaf on that tree but the bark did look like the bark on my sweet gum. Sweet Gums are swamp trees, which is why I planted them in the back end of my property that floods. My wife uses the sweet gum balls for crafts.

    Super nice park. Wife and I stayed one night, but had to leave the next day due to the first part of the Pandemic, they closed the park. I never got to fish the lake, but hopefully next time.

    The Pecan Pie festival looks like alot of fun. Do you know if they are having it this year? I'm having a little trouble finding info on the event for 2022. I'm assuming it would be in April. We are not far from there down in the Lake Livingston area. Also, Martin Dies Jr. State Park is another one that has an island with a hiking trail on it.

    When we went several years ago, we had an invasion of argentine ants. I also didn't like the ditch with culvert when backing in. Island was nice to hike around. But with the constant hum, this park is not on my list to return to.
