1019 Northeast Barnard Street, Glen Rose, TX, 76043

Oakdale Park, listed in the National Register of Historic Places, has been providing recreational opportunities for families since 1925.  We offer cabins, RV & tent sites, meeting rooms, a playground, picnic sites, recreational equipment, an outdoor stage, paved lanes for the kids and their bikes, a very large, 330,000 gallon swimming pool, a coin laundry, and campground store all for your family's benefit and enjoyment.  Beginning with a CASI Chili Cook Off and IBCA BBQ Cookoff, from February through December there's almost always something happening.  Since 1972, Oakdale has been home to a Spring and and Fall Bluegrass Jamboree (1st Saturday in April and 1st Saturday in October, respectively); since 1982, it has been home to the Lone Star State Dulcimer Festival (Mother's Day weekend); and, since 1987, it has been home to a Fall Woodcarving Show and Rally.  For several years the Paluxy River Bluegrass Association has been hosting 3rd Saturday jam sessions and free stage shows at Oakdale as well.  Many families have been coming here for their reunions for decades.  And, many RV clubs regularly hold rallies here.  As you can see, during our first 100 years, many traditions have sprung up and taken hold. 

We're located across the street from the Paluxy River, where you'll find the City of Glen Rose's free Big Rocks Park and River Walk. Next to the Big Rocks is a small dam, a miniature golf course, and a snow cone shack.  Combine those "backyard" attractions with Fossil Rim, Dinosaur Valley State Park, Dinosaur World, the Creation Evidence Museum, The Promise, Barnard's Mill Museum, historic downtown Glen Rose, Squaw Creek Golf Course, and canoeing and tubing at the nearby Brazos River crossing, and there's plenty to keep our guests, both young and old, entertained.

Whether it be a weekend retreat, family reunion, RV rally, or special event, make plans to stay at Oakdale Park and start your own tradition!

Oakdale Park is located in the beautiful and cozy town of Glen Rose, Texas and is a great place for an authentic southern getaway. Onsite, campers can look forward to hiking, biking, fishing, volleyball, historic sightseeing and excellent sunset viewing. Just beyond the campground, campers can look forward to a number of excellent attractions such as the Dinosaur Valley State Park for hiking and historic and scenic viewing. The Big Rock's Park, Barnard Mills Museum, Somervell County Museum and the Fossil Rim Wildlife Center. Historic downtown Glen Rose, Squaw Valley Golf Course and the Creation Evidence Museum are also popular stops through the area, and many campers are sure to try the local bars and eateries for a true taste of the local flavor. Amenities at the park include: a pet area, pool access, tent camping, restrooms, showers, WIFI, water, sewerage, 30/50 amp sites, playground and walking trails. Hope to see you soon!

The staff was rude. If you pay to rent the building for a reunion they want an additional $5.00 per car or the vehicle will be towed. Plus, they charge $10 per person to enter the swimming area whether you swim or not plus you have to pay $5 for parking or your vehicle will be towed.

This was a lovely place to bring the family to! The staff was so helpful, kind, and very accommodating. There was a lot of great sites to choose from for all kinds of rigs and had all the amenities we could need. There were a lot of fun activities that was not only a blast but very relaxing for all of us. The location was really pleasant as we were surrounded by very beautiful views. Everything was nicely maintained which is always something we look for. Overall we had one of the best times at a very great price! We can’t wait to go back! - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group

This park, well campground, was a steal. At least that’s how I felt when we went over everything after the trip. We spent less there than we have on a birthday day party for the kids. We had a blast with the many different things to do and the location was great! It’s also very pet friendly so they were no scared of my pitbull, which is always a plus. I know my animals (as well as mu family) really enjoyed walking the scenic routes and seeing all this place has to offer. There was just so much it wasn’t overwhelming it was very soothing. This ultimately made the trip a five star, Nature is something you can't beat. - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group
