Big Tex Campgrounds

What sets Big Tex Campgrounds apart is its blend of thoughtful design and a connection to the unique character of East Texas. Located in the eclectic community of Ben Wheeler, this 30-acre campground is conveniently positioned between Canton and Tyler, offering both tranquility and access to local attractions such as Tyler State Park and the Caldwell Zoo, both within a short drive.

Full RV hookups (20/30/50 amp), fire pits, grills at select sites, and upcoming amenities like a five-acre swimming pond and expanded nature trails ensure a mix of comfort and opportunities to connect with nature. The dark-sky-friendly environment also makes this an excellent spot for stargazing.

Whether you're planning a weekend escape, a longer trip, or an extended stay, this campground provides a peaceful venue for families and individual campers to relax while enjoying both natural beauty and local culture.
