Took my kids camping here and we had the best time. There's plenty to explore. Campsites that have electric and water are shaded with trees so be mindful of the the stuff they drop. There are playgrounds for kids to play and of course you can't beat finding those dinosaur prints. Staff are helpful, professional and friendly. Water was clean and clear but a bit cold. Overall, we would definitely come back and explore some more.

I used to live near here and came here quite often. Enjoyed hiking and seeing the authentic, Dinosaur foot prints, only visible when river is dry in certain areas. I love the swimming holes. It's just a good place to hike and enjoy beautiful Texas! Y'all be safe driving on the two lane highways down there, I've seen many serious head-on collisions. God bless and have fun in TEXAS ❤

Fun little place with a timestamp of world's early history.nnWe spent the day at Dinosaur Valley State park and enjoyed it. There are not a tremendous number of tracks, but definitely a few in a small area for you to check out. They have a lot of informative signs about the dinosaurs that were in the area, but could have marked the tracks a little better. They do have a sign which shows approximately where they are, but aside from one specific spot they are a little hard to find (to determine if they are just holes or actual tracks) We did a lot of hiker, but beware it is easy to get lost. The trails do get a little confusing and GPS doesn't always help. It's not a large park so it's not like you are getting lost and will never be found, more or an annoyance. There are some really pretty trails though and the river that runs through it is easy to cross in several places (except during rain - be careful)nnThey have a daily rate that really should be for 3-7 days. It's a park that is worth a visit, but I would rather have spent a few days checking it out instead of trying to get it all in within one day (it just wasn't worth the price to pay for more than one day).

Great place to visit quiet and tranquil. Unfortunately when we visited the river tracks were under water and not visible so we well have to plan a return trip whenever they are not submerged and visible again. The horse rides they have there are awesome as well. The sore on the grounds could use some work on their hospitality but other than that it was a great experience.

Dino Valley was a childhood favorite of mine. Now I’ve shared it with my kids and we’ll be back more in the future. Well kept trails. Clean park. Helpful staff. And beautiful scenery. This place is wonderful for, if nothing else, it’s consistency. It’s a well preserved space, priced affordably, and managed very carefully. Be a good steward when you go. Pick up, clean up, smile at folks. It’s a great laid back space where you can just kind of enjoy nature and see some unique dinosaur prints.
