Stayed several days Feb-March 2015 (while working in the Tyler area), had the place to myself except a few campers Friday/Saturday and the resident family of Raccoons that were a ball to watch. Beautiful lake views, store, boat rentals, asphalt roads/pads, fire rings, pick nick tables, lantern holders, nice showers, quiet, clean and spacious camp sites. The Big Pine loop (were I stayed) had full hook ups as do some of the other loops. Park Rangers were really knowledgeable, helpful and courteous. WiFI at the Park HQ building.

What campers say
Tyler State Park centers on a spring-fed, clear lake with a designated swimming area and on-site rentals for kayaks, canoes, paddleboats and stand-up boards, plus a small gift shop. Numerous shaded, rustic trails and loop routes offer scenic lakeshore hiking and some biking opportunities. Facilities and restrooms are generally well maintained and staff are described as friendly. Campgrounds and screened shelters are available, though a few visitors report variable tent-site conditions and persistent raccoons, so secure food and gear. The park is popular with families, good for day trips, and requires a modest entry fee.
