Site facts come from this site's listing on campspot.com; availability and nightly prices from its booking grid, checked 2026-11-08. Photos are shown from campspot.com and not stored by us.
Provider's site description, as published: The Primitive tent camping area is about 3 acres of sparsely wooded grassland. The price is $15 per tent per night, plus booking fees. There are two entrance points from Longs Camp Road where the guest can drive into the campground and park beside a favored area for setting up their tent. Several picnic tables and rock fire ringare scattered throughout. We limit the area to about 6 tents, unless an outdoor adventure group or scout troop reserves the entire area (by calling 903-679-3427) during which 20 or more tents can be accommodated. There is no water or electricity at the site, and generators are not allowed. Water can be drawn from the faucet behind the picnic table at the Backwater Jacks office building. Spacious, clean restrooms and showers are accessible on the West side of the office building at all times.
How booking and saving work
You finish booking on the park's reservation website (campspot.com). Adding a site to your trip saves it, with your dates, so you can compare and come back; it doesn't reserve anything. Book the campsite, RV and activities separately with each provider.
Does a length limit mean my RV fits?
No. It means your RV is within the listed length limit. Slide-out room, turning clearance and overhanging trees aren't published; ask the park if you're close to the limit.
