Boykin Springs Camping

Boykin Springs Camping offers a rustic and tranquil escape managed by the US Forest Service in the heart of Texas. Set at an elevation of 183 feet, this federal campground provides an authentic outdoor experience for those looking to disconnect and enjoy the natural beauty of the Southwest. Because the site operates on a first-come, first-served basis, it is ideal for spontaneous travelers who enjoy the flexibility of primitive camping.

This location is best suited for self-sufficient campers who do not require modern utility hookups. Since there are no listed amenities, visitors should arrive fully prepared with all necessary supplies, water, and waste management gear. The site serves as a quiet home base for RV travelers and tent campers alike who are looking to immerse themselves in a peaceful, natural environment without the crowds of commercial parks.

To secure your spot, you must arrive physically at the campground to claim a site. While some remote areas have limited connectivity, you may be able to use the Recreation.gov mobile app to complete your payment via the Scan and Pay feature once you have arrived. We recommend downloading the app prior to your departure to ensure a smooth check-in process.
