Flat Creek Marina and RV Camping — Local services in Tyler

Flat Creek Marina and RV park is a hidden gem on Lake Palestine. The park offers full 30/50 amp hookups and has amazing views of the lake from the little “island”. The sites are not overly close to each other, which was nice. We had plenty of space to setup camp. The restrooms/ shower/ laundry area is new and is kept super clean, it is a little bit of a walk from the island, but we were able to rent a golf cart which was very convenient. They do have a little store at the Marina which offers many items from drinks to snacks, bait, fishing licenses etc, this was also great for our daily routine of getting ice. The staff though, All were amazing and so very friendly and helpful with everything that we needed and wanted.. The park is very peaceful and is very well maintained, sure the marina gets busy on the weekends, but this should be expected and did not find it a disruption to our camping. It is also gated and is closed each night. They have and are continuing to make upgrades to this park. I can’t wait to see the end result. This is the perfect place to get a way from it all. But If you’re looking to get away from camp, make the drive into Chandler and visit Nettie’s Kitchen for an amazing breakfast (I’m a huge fan of their buttery hash browns and chicken fried steak) which they serve only Thursday-Sunday but are open the rest of the days for lunch and dinner or visit Wade’s that is by the country store.. they have some amazing seafood but serve burgers too. We love the park and the area, can’t wait...

Ive personally met the family that is now the new owners and i know they have done so many NEW updates on this Marina (Oldest Marina on Lake Palestine). New Boat Launch to New Boat House and New Bait Store and have updated Most of the RV Pads also brand new restroom/ shower rooms, great waterfront locations. They DO NOT rent out boats or kayaks anymore. They DO have 2 cozy cabins they rent out as well. If you want to bring you family out to a safe clean RV park this is the place and if you just want to launch your boat its a small $5 charge where you can safely leave your vehicle and trailer for the day while you enjoy the lake. Also!!! Inside the Bait Store you can buy some of most delicious Wagu steaks and Sausages from the Hassell Cattle Company to grill out on your Camping Day or Evening. Small word of advice tho if your rv trailer is too much for you or your wife or gf cant back it up for you onto the Rv pads Then you might want to trade yours in for a smaller popup trailer. Amen god bless and enjoy...

We stay at Lake Tyler nearly every weekend, but went to Flat Creek for the first time for July 4th wkend (stayed 4 days). The spot we had was wonderful! It was PACKED but was so much fun. Our spot was on the canal side, so we were able to float where it was calm,, but we also caught catfish & bass, too. We loved the on-site store, and the fact that it is a gated park, so you have to have a code to get into the park. This was the biggest thing for us. It is 5 minutes from dollar general & gas stations too, plus a ton of restaurants if you don't feel like cooking. The only downfall was we had one of the very few spots that didn't have sewage hookups, but don't fret! There are also on-site showers & bathrooms. I took advantage of our camper toiletries since I was the only lady (lol) but my husband and all the boys used the community ones which were very clean. We appreciate the workers, and their allowing everyone to pop fireworks, too! We had a blast and will...
