Now is the time to hit the road and make memories. RVing is one of the best ways to getaway, while still social distancing. Camping is the original social distancing! Now, if you’re looking for a place to check out in Texas, you’ll want to give Lake Houston Wilderness Park a chance. This park is just 30 minutes north of Houston and spans over 4,500 acres.
According to the park’s website, “Overnight camping is not currently available.

A refundable $125 deposit is required for all cabins, lodges, and the dining hall.”
Things to Do
As you approach the park, you can access it via a bridge over Peach Creek. This park offers tons of enjoyable activities, including hiking and biking, kayaking, and even 13 miles of equestrian trails. Visitors must bring their own bikes, watercraft, and horses with them as there is not a place to rent any of these.
This park is heavily forested. That means that you will have the chance to find tons of unique snakes and animals. However, as a result, it’s also important that you remember to be careful. Always wear pants when hiking, as well as closed toed shoes.
The waterways are known to change rapidly, so check with the park service to understand conditions and then determine if you should go out. Finally, if you want to boat on Lake Houston, you’ll need to find another entry point. There is no way to get to Lake Houston from this park, however you may used canoes to travel Peach and Coney creeks.
