About Stubblefield Lake

Federal campground in Texas.

Stubblefield Lake offers RV campers a serene escape into the heart of Texas National Forest, where towering pines create a peaceful canopy and the gentle sounds of nature become your daily soundtrack. This well-maintained campground provides the perfect balance of accessibility and authentic outdoor experience, making it an ideal destination for both seasoned RV enthusiasts and families new to camping life.

Nestled in the quieter corners of Texas forestry, Stubblefield Lake draws visitors seeking respite from busy highways and crowded tourist destinations. The lake itself is the centerpiece of the experience, offering opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and simply sitting by the water's edge with a morning coffee. The natural surroundings create an immersive woodland atmosphere where you can truly disconnect from daily pressures while remaining within reasonable driving distance of Texas towns and amenities.

The area surrounding the campground showcases the diverse beauty of East Texas forestry. Hiking trails wind through the forest, offering varying difficulty levels suitable for casual strollers and more adventurous explorers alike. Birdwatchers find the habitat particularly rewarding, with numerous species visible throughout the seasons. The lake provides excellent fishing opportunities for bass, catfish, and other native species, whether you're an experienced angler or just looking to cast a line and relax.

RV campers appreciate the convenient location that allows for both day trips and longer stays. The nearby regional attractions include state parks, scenic byways, and small-town Texas communities where you can experience local culture and hospitality. Whether you're planning a weekend retreat, a week-long camping adventure, or a stop along a longer RV journey, the campground serves as an excellent base for exploring the natural and cultural offerings of the region.

The campground attracts a wonderful mix of visitors: retirees seeking peaceful camping destinations, families looking for outdoor education and bonding time, fishing enthusiasts pursuing their favorite hobby, and nature lovers wanting to experience authentic Texas forestry. Spring and fall particularly showcase the area's natural beauty, though each season brings its own character and appeal.

Good, simple campgrounds with hiking trails and lake access. Spent the night camping here and went on an 11 mile hike. Beautiful scenery! I loved how the forest and landscape changed while journeying through the hiking trails - piney woods, acacia, wild lemon, bamboo, palms, etc. We didn't see much wildlife, but we could hear it :)

Great little place just 20 minutes from downtown Huntsville. Perfect for when you want to get away but don’t have the time, money, or energy for a big trip. Also a part of the lone start trail is here and is really fun to hike. Only reason it’s a 4 start rating is because they don’t take care of the bathrooms very well. In the girls bathroom towards the back of the site one stall was out of order... Great little place just 20 minutes from downtown Huntsville.

Only reason it’s a 4 start rating is because they don’t take care of the bathrooms very well. In the girls bathroom towards the back of the site one stall was out of order and the other one had a broken lock. And overall just pretty dirty. Other than that I love this place

Incredible campground. The place is incredibly beautiful, well kept, clean, the showers have nice warm water, the sites are in very good conditions. A ridiculously good value for what you pay ($15) and most of the people staying there are in tents, not RV's. Gives a nice vibe to the place. PJ the campground host is an amazing guy. One of the best campgrounds I've stayed at. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 Incredible campground. The place is incredibly beautiful, well kept, clean, the showers have nice warm water, the sites are in very good conditions.

🌲 Bigfoot, Barbecue, and Bravery: A 5-Star Adventure at Stubblefield Lake 🌲 We spent Memorial Day weekend at Stubblefield Lake Campground on what can only be described as a primitive expedition of legendary proportions.

This wasn’t just any camping trip — it was our high school graduation gift to my little brother: a chance to relax, reconnect with nature, and hunt Bigfoot. (Priorities.) Now, let’s set the scene: calm, peaceful campsite, tucked into the forest, just far enough from civilization that your cell signal gives up — but close enough to nature that something was definitely watching us. (More on that later.) As tradition demands, no great expedition is complete without a feast. Cue my wife — the true MVP — who, in the middle of a severe thunderstorm, fired up the pit and cooked the best ribs known to mankind. Lightning flashing, thunder rolling, and there she was, unfazed, flipping ribs like a backyard superhero. Gordon Ramsay could never. Later that night, the real excitement began. Deep in the dark woods, we spotted a pair of glowing eyes and discovered footprints that were way too big to belong to any of us — unless my brother had a sudden growth spurt into size 25 shoes overnight. We didn’t see Bigfoot, but I’d bet a full rack of ribs he saw us. Between the peaceful lake, the eerie nighttime adventures, and some of the best ribs this side of the Mississippi (rain or shine), Stubblefield Lake gave us a weekend we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for a calm place to relax and a chance to make history, pack your tent — and your sense of humor — and get out there. Would rate it 6/5 stars if Bigfoot had joined us for dinner.

Stubblefield is a great place for those fanatics of camping. The sites are spacious with BBQ grill, picnic table and a nice sand pad to set up your tent. Park fee is 15.00. There are many trails that are easily accessible. Restrooms are well kept. Plenty of fresh air and nature to enjoy. Also, dont forget to pack a fishing rod and tackle.
