Caprock Canyons State Park

As others have said this park offers breathtaking views of deep canyons, red rocks and interesting geology. The place was also lousy with bison, poop piles throughout the campground and one of the trees at our site even had bison fur on it. The campground is just a short walk from the canyon’s edge and you walk through a prairie dog town to get there.

Sites are large and well spaced, grounds were clean but for the bison patties and utilities worked well. The visitor center was open but I did not see anybody when I went in to get a park map. Reservation was made online and passes printed out on home computer. Contactless is a good thing.

There were sites marked reserved but nobody showed up to claim them, presumably a social distancing strategy.

We plan on returning to this lovely state park, hopefully in cooler weather. I’m sure spring time in this park would be stunning.

As noted by others, this campground is absolutely breathtaking. We stayed at site 5 on the Honey Flat Loop. The sites are huge, private, and there is also a nice covered picnic table. The bathrooms are clean, but because of the ongoing pandemic we stuck to our trailer facilities.
This seems obvious now but it is HOT in July, 110+ degrees. We had to enjoy the park closer to sundown but did manage to see a huge herd of bison. We will definitely be back in cooler months.

Amazing views and topography for Texas. Flat all around but then you arrive here and there is impressive sandstone bedrock erosion and valleys suggestive of Palo Duro Canyon further north. Would not be a bad place for car camping and day hiking for at least 2-3 days. Trail was pretty muddy after moderate rain. cell service at parking lots and car camp ground S Prong.....but not far into trail or primitive S. Prong.

Campground is flat on a single street, sites are wide, even, asphalt. Large grassy area for tents plus picnic shelter over bench and table. Short cross pathways to bathroom building and dumpsters, right by the prairie dog town. Saturday presentations by rangers were informative and awesome. Lots of buffalo droppings every where as the animals roam about. Be prepared to keep respectful 50-yd distance when you see these majestic wooly mammals on walks or rides. The park never felt crowded although there were obvious signs of cars and tents and hikers at the multiple trailheads. Awesome park! Best free WiFi of any state park!

Arrived @ 8 pm and was greeted by an impressive herd of bison. The large male quickly made his dominance known with his positioning and grunts.
The next morning we biked the 10 mile round trip to the tunnel. It was hot but the trip was well worth it. We saw bats and a couple of snakes. On the way back out of the tunnel a large snake was having a mid morning snack of murciélago. I was able to get a great video.
Staff is extremely helpful and friendly.
Bathrooms are worn and dirty. Lots of broken and nog functioning items. Faucets, shower heads, curtains and toilets. Bugs and trash very evident. I love the place but the shower facilities need attention.

Loved camping here. Pit toilets around the park, and flush toilets near the front, but the sinks had cockroaches and spiders in them... don’t let this deter you though, as this was one of my favorite campgrounds.

We saw bison (even walking through the campsites, so cool!) and the prairie dogs as you drive to the campsites are very cool too.

The park itself is beautiful, with trails for hiking and some rewarding views to be received. Getting to see bison drinking from the lake was a treat too.

As the previous reviewer said, it’s a must visit if in Texas.

This is our second time in 2 years to stay here. The Bison did not disappoint, they came through the campground and we saw them on the trails. They are very very large animals and you should always give them the space and respect they deserve. We really enjoyed sitting out by the campfire and hiking the trails as well as the programs put on by the rangers. A must stop place as far as we are concerned. the bathrooms are clean, the sites are very large. We had a Weboost and had great ATT coverage with internet. We camped in a 27 ft Airstream TT.

What a fun park! This is definitely great for a family. Buffalo, prairie dogs, two playgrounds and great hiking trails and fishing. wait...leave the kids and enjoy the scenery.

HOT, HOT, HOT in the summer.
Variety of hookups, clean bath houses. GREAT visitor center with lots of information.
Great Ranger Programs.
This is a long drive from no where. Pack accordingly. Quitaque is the closest town with limited supplies. Take sunscreen and when it's HOT watch for rattlesnakes.
Great fishing and swimming
