Itasca is popular during peak season. Reserve 2-4 weeks in advance for weekends and holidays.
Most parks have check-in after 1:00 PM and check-out by 11:00 AM. Call ahead if you'll arrive late.
Texas weather can change quickly. Pack layers and check the forecast for Itasca.

I loved this place, the staff was friendly. The restrooms were clean and well stocked. They had a Bingo game during our stay. My husband and I didn't win anything, but we had lots of fun playing. Only negative is the road going to our campsite was very rough. I would recommend this park.

We have visited this park several times and the grounds and amenities continue to deteriorate with each visit. We usually bring our RV, but rented a cabin on our last trip. We found a centipede in the primary bedroom and mouse droppings on the top bunk of the secondary bedroom. The roads throughout the park are insanely BAD. The potholes are unavoidable and some sections of the road are completely... We have visited this park several times and the grounds and amenities continue to deteriorate with each visit. We usually bring our RV, but rented a cabin on our last trip. We found a centipede in the primary bedroom and mouse droppings on the top bunk of the secondary bedroom. The roads throughout the park are insanely BAD. The potholes are unavoidable and some sections of the road are completely missing. This can do real damage to your vehicle or RV or both. One of our family faves is Pickleball, but the net was rotted and sagging to the point where we had to use duct tape to piece it together enough to even use the court. There was also a large mound of brush sitting right outside the court that appeared it had been there for a while, which was a concern since snakes and other wildlife tend to gather in brush piles. The Lodge had so many spider webs on the windows that you almost couldn’t see out and the main office had parts of the building missing, that had literally been tacked back on with packing tape. The pool was completely covered in leaves and the skimmer basket overflowing. We had to get a net and skim the entire thing so the kids could have a little swim time. All of this with them charging RESORT pricing. Not at all worth the money. Better to find another park with the same pricing that has been maintained and where you can actually enjoy all the amenities advertised. Lastly, the front desk staff was absolutely horrible. We checked out (on time), but gathered in front of the office to say our goodbyes, and were rudely told we needed to leave since it was then after checkout time. Apparently their “hospitality” ended on the dot at checkout. Another issue to note, it took 13 days to get our deposits refunded. I have NEVER had to wait so long!! We typically meet as an extended family once a year for camping, and have all decided we will NEVER go back to this place! The saddest part of all of this is that the grounds themself are gorgeous, very woodsy with rolling hills. It could be a wonderful destination spot, but at this point the entire facility and all amenities need a complete renovation and facelift.

I’m a member of thousand trails and love that I have the park to park program so when I do decide to travel, I can easily move from location to location. I like this location just wish they could do something about the really rough road on the way in. They always offer activities. If you’re there on the weekend just always friendly nice people to speak to that are helpful if you ever need anything...

If you’re there on the weekend just always friendly nice people to speak to that are helpful if you ever need anything and will visit probably fairly frequently.

We enjoy camping here at Thousand Trails. The roads are in desperate need of repairs and they need an electrician to check out all of their sites here. We have had to move after setting up because of faulty electrical outlets. The breaker where we are now keeps coming loose and we keep loosing power at night . My husband has had to go out in rain to fix it. Now he is sick!! Please hire a maintenan... We enjoy camping here at Thousand Trails.

I recently stayed at Thousand Trails Lake Whitney and overall found it to be a mixed experience with both positives and areas that could be improved.

I recently stayed at Thousand Trails Lake Whitney and overall found it to be a mixed experience with both positives and areas that could be improved. The property itself is quite large, which gives you plenty of space to spread out, but also means a lot of driving around if you want to reach certain amenities like the two pools. Both pools were enjoyable and well-maintained, making them a nice highlight of the stay. One of the things I appreciated most was how clean the bathrooms were. They were spotless every time I used them, which is a big plus compared to other campgrounds I’ve visited. Another standout feature was the convenience of having a dedicated text phone number to reach the park rangers. It felt modern, efficient, and much easier than having to track someone down in person or wait at an office. On the flip side, there are a few drawbacks to note. The roads throughout the property have several large potholes, and this can be challenging if you’re driving an RV or towing a camper. It’s something to be mindful of, as it definitely affects the comfort of getting around inside the park. Also, despite being advertised as “Lake Whitney,” there’s no direct access to the lake from the campground and no real view of the water. For anyone expecting lakeside camping or fishing right from the property, this could be a disappointment. In summary, Thousand Trails Lake Whitney offers a spacious campground with clean facilities, good pool options, and helpful ranger support. However, the road conditions and lack of lake access are definite downsides. With a bit of road maintenance and clearer advertising, it could become a much desired destination.
