Maybe???

Johnson Creek Campground is situated along the banks of Lake O' the Pines in the in the Ark-La-Tex portion of the Pineywoods of east Texas near Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana.

Is this in another one of those four sided triangles @wmtire is in?

Hey Ed, it is at Alley Creek Camp on Lake O' the Pines. It is a COE park on the lake. We stayed in spot E113 which we chose because how that section is laid out with more room between the camp sites. It is deceiving on their website because that specific space is shown as a pull-thru 80' long, but in reality it is a back-in and prob 60'. It still worked out because our friends stayed in the adjacent space and there is lots of space around those two spaces. The rest of the camping spaces seem to be typical COE camp sites that are really close together. The small town of Jefferson is really neat little town and worth a visit for sure as well.

Dave, you were in the right spot and just one camp ground over. It is Alley Creek which is on the next cove over from Johnson Creek.

Very nice. I used to deliver bait and tackle (we had a worm farm) to a lot of lakes in East Texas. This was back in the late 70's, after I graduated from Grand Saline HS. Lake O' The Pines was always my favorite one of all of them. Still is. Although Caddo Lake is pretty cool also. Or at least was back then. Anyway, great spot.

May have to meander over that way this winter or next spring from the posts here.

Arrowhead Marina & RV Park on the Mohawk River, Schenectady, NY...
A very small marina & a campground not an RV Park.
1 night stop on the way home from an 8 day trip to Niagara Falls, NY...
Not really towing but that's the way we roll.

Getting close to the end of this chapter....swore we would upgrade the camper after 10 years but Covid delayed our next purchase. And that old Ford diesel still only has 198K on it and we want to upgrade the bells & whistles but first converting to making respirators & just got back to building the dream truck and now a strike.... not sure we aren't meant to keep that beast on the road!

A penny saved is two pennies earned! Looks very nice.
