Brief Overview: 
This small park and B&B is located about 6 miles south of Canton on Highway 19. They are out in the country and the sites are situated around the pines of east Texas.

Amenities and Fun Things To Do:
100_3960Texas Log Cabin has a limited number of RV sites with 50/30/20 amp electricity and water. Most of the sites are level with rock driveways and a limited amount of grass. They have tent camping in the back 50 acres. On site is a B&B that sleeps 8 and a travel trailer for rent.

Some of the other amenities include: dump station, horseshoe pit, pool table, pinball machine, laundry, and fire pit for socializing.

A Typical Texas Outsider Day:

We stayed here because we were spending some time at First Monday Trade Days and golfing at Van Zandt Country Club and Twin Lakes Golf Course. The only activity within the park is a horseshoe pit.

Cool Nearby Activities:
Canton is 6 miles to the north and is noted for "First Monday Trade Days" which is over 3000 vendors displaying their wares for 4 days. It's been said that "if you can't find it at Trade Days, it doesn't exist". You can visit the First Monday of Canton Website to learn more about Trade Days.

While the shoppers are shopping, you golfers should head 5 miles south to Twin Lakes to play an outstanding golf course. You can read the Twin Lakes Review and find other golf courses in the Golf Section of Texas Outside.

Texas Outside Campground Rating System

Texas Outside uses a tough rating scale and it’s difficult for a campground to get a “10”.  Each park is rated on:

  • Scenic Beauty: a campground that is flat with no trees or character gets a “1” and hills, lots of trees, beautiful lake site, and lush ground cover gets a “10”
  • Park Condition:  the cleaner, well kept, and maintained campgrounds receive high scores
  • Amenities: we are looking for lots of amenities like restrooms, dump stations, playgrounds, boat ramps, shelters, concession stand, rental toys, and more.
  • Campsites:  low scores are given for sites that are right next to each other (good for getting to know your neighbors, but not what we’re looking for when we’re camping); have no lantern holder, no water or electricity, no fire pit, no grill, or no picnic table (or it’s rotten wood); have no trees and no view; the ground cover is crushed rock (my bare feet hate that stuff!); and they require a lot of work to get your rig level.
  • Things To Do: Bonus points are given for campgrounds that offer lots of fun things to do at the park or very nearby – this includes: biking, hiking, climbing, boating, entertainment, golf, swimming, fishing, volleyball, horseshoes, and more
