Campgrounds near Carrollton, Texas
Carrollton sits in the northern Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, roughly twenty minutes from downtown Dallas and within easy reach of two major reservoirs: Grapevine Lake and Lewisville Lake. That location gives RV renters a compact choice between suburban full-hookup resorts and lakefront parks with beaches, boat ramps, and marinas.
Inside the city, Sandy Lake MH and RV Resort on Sandy Lake Road offers 219 full-hookup sites with WiFi, cable, a pool, laundry, bathhouse facilities, and an on-site grocery store. A short drive north puts renters on Grapevine Lake at The Vineyards Campground and Cabins, with pull-thru sites and fully furnished cabins along the lakeshore, and at Meadowmere Park, a City of Grapevine lakefront park popular for shoreline camping.
Across the water on Lewisville Lake, Hidden Cove Park encompasses 720 acres of outdoor recreation with tent, screened shelter, cabin, bunkhouse, and RV sites with full hook-ups. The Retreat at Shady Creek rounds out the options for renters wanting a quieter setting outside the metro core.
Things to do near Carrollton
Water recreation drives most trips. Hidden Cove Park offers boating, fishing, hiking, tubing, and skiing on Lewisville Lake, and guests can rent boats, jet skis, kayaks, and paddleboards from on-site vendors, with a three-lane boat ramp for easy launch access. Grapevine Lake offers similar options through The Vineyards Campground and Cabins and Meadowmere Park, including swim beaches, fishing piers, and paddle rentals.
Off the water, Historic Downtown Grapevine is the main draw for families, with restaurants, shopping, wineries, and entertainment just minutes from the lakefront parks. In Carrollton itself, Sandy Lake MH and RV Resort sits directly across the street from Sandy Lake Amusement Park, and the Dallas Arboretum, Six Flags Over Texas, and AT&T Stadium are all within a short drive.

North Texas has a long camping season. Spring, from March through May, brings the greenest landscapes, wildflowers, and comfortable daytime temperatures, but it is also the peak severe-weather window, with thunderstorms, hail, and tornado risk running highest in April and May. RV renters should watch forecasts closely and choose sites near sturdy structures or storm shelters.
Summer runs hot and humid, with daytime highs regularly in the mid-90s and frequent triple-digit stretches in July and August. Lake parks stay busy on weekends because the water is the primary way to beat the heat, so shaded sites and full hookups with 50-amp service for air conditioning book out early. Reservations for holiday weekends often fill months in advance.
Fall is the sweet spot for touring: warm days, cool nights, lower crowds, and generally stable weather from late September through November. Winter is mild by national standards but variable, with occasional freezes and ice events. Sandy Lake MH and RV Resort operates year-round, which makes Carrollton a viable off-season base.

How to book campgrounds near Carrollton
Booking channels vary by park. Sandy Lake MH and RV Resort books through its own Sun Outdoors website and the Campspot platform. The Vineyards Campground and Cabins accepts reservations up to twelve months in advance of the current date through its own website, with all camping fees due at the time of booking and sites not held without payment. Meadowmere Park is reserved through the City of Grapevine parks system.
Hidden Cove Park handles camping reservations directly through its own website and phone line, and daily entry permits can be purchased on site. For summer weekends, holidays, and Grapevine event dates, booking eight to twelve weeks out is typical for the lakefront parks. Weekday and shoulder-season stays at the suburban resorts usually have more flexibility.
What to expect on the ground
Sites and amenities differ sharply between the suburban and lakefront parks. Hidden Cove Park offers 34 concrete RV sites roughly 40 feet long with electricity and water hookups, oriented toward lake access rather than resort amenities, with select sites adding sewer. At The Vineyards Campground and Cabins, sites are paved and include 30/50-amp service, water, sewer, and WiFi, are nicely spaced on rolling, wooded lakeside terrain, and many pull-thrus run over 60 feet deep.
Suburban resorts trade scenery for convenience. Sandy Lake MH and RV Resort amenities include pull-thru sites, a dog park, 24/7 fitness center, swimming pool, club room, fishing, and a playground, and it sits across the street from Sandy Lake Amusement Park. Cell service is strong across the metro, road access is easy from I-35E and the President George Bush Turnpike, and grocery, propane, and RV supply stops are within a few minutes of every campground on this list.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Carrollton, TX
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Carrollton, TX?
RV rental in Carrollton, TX is more affordable than many travelers expect, with nightly rates typically starting around $95 for compact travel trailers and ranging up to $300 or more for larger Class A motorhomes. Travel trailers and pop-ups are usually the cheap RV rental Carrollton option, while a luxury motorhome rental Carrollton sits at the higher end. To save money, book midweek, travel during shoulder seasons in April or October when Dallas-Fort Worth weather is mild, and look for hosts offering weekly discounts. Pro tip: filter for Instant Book listings near Carrollton to lock in pricing before peak summer rates kick in around Memorial Day.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Carrollton,TexasDo I need a special driver's license to rent an RV in Carrollton, TX?
Great news: your regular Class C Texas driver's license (or equivalent from your home state) is all you need to rent an RV in Carrollton, TX for the vast majority of motorhomes, campervans, and travel trailers on RVezy. Texas only requires a non-commercial Class B license for single vehicles over 26,000 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), which is heavier than nearly every RV on the platform. Approved drivers on RVezy are generally 25 or older, and RVezy verifies your ID during booking. Visiting from abroad? Bring an International Driving Permit alongside your home license and you're set for your Carrollton RV trip.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat kind of protection is included with my RVezy rental in Carrollton?
Every RV rental in Carrollton, TX booked through RVezy comes with a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance built right in, so you can hit I-35 or head out to Lewisville Lake with real peace of mind. You choose your coverage level during the booking process (not the host), and the plan covers physical damage to the RV during your trip up to the limits of the plan you select. Roadside help is just a phone call away if you get a flat near Grapevine or need a battery jump at the campground. Pro tip: review the included coverage details on the checkout page so you pick the protection level that matches your comfort zone.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Carrollton RV rental?
Booking your RV rental in Carrollton, TX is low-risk because RVezy (not the host) sets the cancellation policy. It includes a grace period after booking where you can cancel for a full refund of the rental cost. After that window, your refund depends on how far out from your trip you cancel. You'll see the full cancellation details during checkout and in your confirmation email, and if a host ever cancels on you, RVezy refunds you or provides travel credit. Pro tip: book early to lock in the best Carrollton RVs, knowing the grace period gives you breathing room to plan.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on my Carrollton RV trip?
Absolutely, pet-friendly RV rental Carrollton options are easy to find on RVezy. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter when browsing listings and you'll see RVs whose hosts welcome your furry co-pilot (a small pet cleaning fee may apply, shown upfront). Dogs love the Dallas area: the Elm Fork Nature Preserve trails near Carrollton offer shaded paths, and most campgrounds along Lewisville Lake and Grapevine Lake allow leashed pets. Pro tip: pack a collapsible water bowl since DFW summer pavement gets dangerously hot, and plan walks for early morning or evening to keep paws safe.
cityofcarrollton.com/departments/departments-a-f/animal-servicesCan the RV be delivered to my campground or driveway in Carrollton?
Yes, RV delivery Carrollton is one of the most popular options on RVezy, especially for first-time renters. Many local hosts will drive the RV directly to your home, a Lewisville Lake campground, The Vineyards Campground in Grapevine, or a DFW Airport meet-up point, then handle setup and a full walkthrough so you don't have to tow or maneuver a big rig yourself. Delivery fees are typically based on distance and are listed clearly on each listing. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm delivery to your specific campsite, especially for spots like Hidden Cove Park on Lake Lewisville about 25 miles north of Carrollton.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Carrollton,TexasHow far can I travel on my Carrollton RV rental?
You've got serious range when you rent an RV in Carrollton, TX. Many hosts offer generous daily mileage allowances or even RV rental with unlimited mileage, and any limits are shown clearly before you book. Carrollton's central location in the DFW metroplex puts incredible destinations within easy reach: Austin is about 200 miles south on I-35, Hot Springs National Park sits 290 miles east, Big Bend National Park is a stunning 540-mile road trip from Carrollton, and Broken Bow Lake in Oklahoma is just 200 miles northeast. Pro tip: if you're planning a longer haul, message the host to add bonus miles upfront, which is usually cheaper than the overage rate.
txdot.gov/Where are the best campgrounds near Carrollton, TX?
You're surrounded by excellent campgrounds near Carrollton, TX with three major lakes within 30 minutes. Top picks for RV camping Carrollton include: Sandy Lake MH & RV Resort right in Carrollton (full hookups, pool, pull-thrus); Hidden Cove Park on Lewisville Lake (lakefront sites about 25 miles north); The Vineyards Campground in Grapevine (gorgeous lakefront, ~14 miles away); Isle du Bois at Ray Roberts Lake State Park (about 45 miles north with swimming beach); and Cedar Hill State Park on Joe Pool Lake (35 miles southwest with 300+ sites). Pro tip: Texas State Parks let you reserve sites up to 5 months ahead at texasstateparks.reserveamerica.com, and the popular lakefront sites go fast for summer weekends.
tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/reservations/When is the best time of year for an RV trip in Carrollton?
Spring (March to May) and fall (September to early November) are the best windows for a Carrollton RV trip. Daytime highs sit in the comfortable 70s to mid-80s F, evenings cool down nicely, and Texas wildflowers along the backroads in April are unforgettable. Summer is doable but intense: July and August regularly hit 95 to 100+ F with high humidity, so look for an RV with strong air conditioning and shore power hookups. Winter is mild (highs in the 50s and 60s F) with occasional freezes, making December and January quietly great for snowbird RV camping Carrollton getaways. Pro tip: book your spring RV by January, since DFW locals snap up Easter and spring break weekends fast.
weather.gov/fwd/I've never driven an RV before, will I be okay in Carrollton?
You've got this, and you're not alone — first time renting an RV is incredibly common on RVezy. Every host provides a hands-on orientation at pickup walking you through driving, hookups, slide-outs, the awning, and dumping tanks, and you can text them anytime during your trip with questions. Carrollton is friendlier than most metros for new RVers because you can quickly hop on the President George Bush Turnpike or Sam Rayburn Tollway and be in open country in 20 minutes. Pro tip: avoid downtown Dallas (low bridges and narrow lanes) and choose delivery to your campground for your first trip so you only have to handle setup, not city driving.
txdot.gov/safety/driving-safety.htmlWhat happens if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?
You're covered around the clock. Every motorhome rental Carrollton and travel trailer booked through RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, so help is just a call away whether you're parked at Lewisville Lake or 200 miles down I-35 toward Austin. Roadside coverage handles common issues like flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and towing to the nearest qualified service center. For anything RV-specific (like figuring out the water heater), your host is your direct line and usually responds quickly via the RVezy app. Pro tip: snap photos of the RV at pickup and save your host's number plus RVezy support in your phone before you pull away.
rvezy.com/insurance-and-protectionWhat are the best RV road trips from Carrollton, TX?
A RV road trip from Carrollton opens up some of the best driving in the country. Top routes include: Texas Hill Country loop through Fredericksburg and the LBJ Ranch (about 280 miles south, perfect for wineries and wildflowers); Big Bend National Park (540 miles west, plan 8 hours of driving); Broken Bow Lake and Beavers Bend State Park in Oklahoma (200 miles northeast for pine forests); Hot Springs, Arkansas (290 miles east); and the Gulf Coast at Galveston (290 miles south). Cross-border travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals, but Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana trips are all fair game. Pro tip: leave Carrollton before 7 a.m. to beat DFW rush-hour gridlock on your way out.
traveltexas.com/places-to-go/regionsHow much should I budget for fuel on my Carrollton RV trip?
Fuel is usually the biggest variable cost on a Carrollton RV trip, so it pays to plan ahead. Texas gas prices in the DFW area typically run below the national average, with diesel running higher than regular unleaded. Travel trailers towed by a pickup typically get 10 to 14 miles per gallon, Class C motorhomes average 8 to 12 MPG, and large Class A motorhomes get 6 to 10 MPG. A 500-mile round trip in a Class C can run roughly $150 to $250 in gas depending on current prices. Pro tip: use the GasBuddy app and fill up at Buc-ee's or Costco in nearby Plano for some of the cheapest fuel in the metroplex.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground near Carrollton?
For the best campgrounds near Carrollton, plan to reserve as early as you can. Texas State Parks like Ray Roberts Lake (Isle du Bois) and Cedar Hill open reservations exactly 5 months out at 8 a.m. Central via the official Texas Parks & Wildlife reservation system, and popular summer and holiday weekends sell out within minutes. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers campgrounds on Lewisville Lake and Grapevine Lake book through Recreation.gov 6 months ahead. Private RV parks like Sandy Lake MH & RV Resort in Carrollton usually have more last-minute availability. Pro tip: set a calendar alarm for 7:55 a.m. on your 5-month-out date and have your account logged in ready to grab the lakefront site you want.
tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/park-reservation-informationWhat are the driving conditions like around Carrollton?
Driving an RV around Carrollton is very manageable once you know the rhythm of DFW. Carrollton sits at the intersection of I-35E, the President George Bush Turnpike (PGBT), and the Sam Rayburn Tollway, giving you fast access to open Texas highways. Rush hour (7 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 7 p.m.) hits hard on I-35E and I-635, so plan to depart midmorning or after dinner. Watch for sudden spring thunderstorms (March to May) and the occasional tornado watch, plus brutal summer heat that can stress tires. The terrain is flat and easy. Pro tip: TollTags work seamlessly on the PGBT, but your rental may pass tolls back to you, so ask your host how tolls are handled.
txdot.gov/about/programs/traffic-operations.htmlWhat amenities will I find at campgrounds near Carrollton?
Campgrounds near Carrollton are well-equipped for a comfortable RV stay. Most lakefront parks at Lewisville Lake, Grapevine Lake, and Ray Roberts Lake State Park offer water and electric hookups (30/50 amp), with many private parks like Sandy Lake MH & RV Resort offering full hookups including sewer. Free dump stations are available at Lewisville Lake Park, Hickory Creek, and most U.S. Army Corps sites. Potable water fill stations are standard at every park. Many sites include picnic tables, fire rings, and lake access. Pro tip: if you're staying at a water-and-electric site without sewer, a portable waste tote lets you empty grey/black tanks at the campground dump station without breaking camp.
tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/lake-ray-robertsWhat's included inside the RV when I rent in Carrollton?
Most RVs available for campervan rental Carrollton and motorhome rental Carrollton come fully equipped so you can roll right into your trip. Expect a kitchen with stove, fridge, microwave, sink, cookware, dishes and utensils; a bathroom with toilet and shower; comfortable sleeping areas (RVs in DFW often sleep 4 to 8); air conditioning (crucial for Texas summers); heating; and seatbelts for travel. Many hosts also include a TV, WiFi hotspot, outdoor chairs, and a generator for off-grid camping. Each RVezy listing has a detailed amenities checklist so you know exactly what's included. Pro tip: in DFW heat, confirm the AC works on both shore power and generator before you leave for places without hookups.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Carrollton,TexasWhat add-ons and options can I get with my Carrollton RV rental?
RVezy hosts in Carrollton offer plenty of helpful add-ons to customize your trip. Common options include delivery and setup (priced by distance from the host's location), generators for off-grid camping, bedding and linen packages, kitchen kits, outdoor grills, bike racks, and pet packages. Mileage is set per listing, with many Carrollton hosts including a generous daily mileage allowance and some offering unlimited mileage on local trips. Pickup is usually at the host's home or a nearby meet-up spot, with a 30 to 60 minute walkthrough. Pro tip: bundle delivery with a generator if you're heading to a primitive site at Ray Roberts Lake or LBJ National Grasslands where shore power isn't available.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Carrollton,TexasHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment for your RV rental in Carrollton, TX is handled securely through the RVezy platform, no cash needed with the host. You'll pay your rental total at booking with a credit or debit card, which includes the nightly rate, service fee, and your chosen protection plan. A refundable security deposit is placed as a hold on your card before pickup, separate from your booking payment, and released after the host confirms the RV came back in good shape, typically within a few days of trip end. Pro tip: do a thorough walkaround video with your host at both pickup and drop-off in Carrollton, which protects everyone and gets your deposit released quickly.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I park an RV overnight on the street in Carrollton?
For the smoothest experience, plan to park your RV at a campground or in a private driveway rather than on a Carrollton residential street. The City of Carrollton restricts long-term street parking of recreational vehicles in residential areas, so an RV park or driveway is the safe bet. Luckily you've got great options just minutes away: Sandy Lake MH and RV Resort right in Carrollton, plus full-hookup sites at Lewisville Lake (about 15 minutes north) and Grapevine Lake (about 15 minutes west). Pro tip: if a host is delivering to your driveway, a short stay is generally fine, just give your neighbors a heads-up.
