Martin Dies Jr State Park

Updated: Jul 16, 2020

We enjoyed this park deeply. It is very similar to Huntsville State Park.  There seemed to be minimal traffic (boat, car, and camper). Our children enjoyed riding their bikes up and down the road near our shelter.

It felt like the screened shelters were far apart… although that may have been due to the amount of brush.  Some fireants on the ground did not deter us from letting the kids play in the dirt all day.  We rinsed them off at dinnertime.

This camp, while on the water, is not directly on the Neches river and so it is better to canoe for successful fishing (panfish mainly). If you try to cast from the banks/pier you won’t have much luck, though you’ll still have fun!  The end result: getting out and enjoying life together, will result no matter what you do.

Watch out for mosquitoes at dusk (bring your bugspray, marshmallows and Christmas lights — and ENJOY)… It was lovely!
