Franklin Mountains RV Park

• This RV park has five self-contained spaces, none of which have water or electrical hook-ups. The Tom Mays section of Franklin Mountain State Park offers toilets, picnic tables and barbecue sites, and can be accessed on the park's east side. The park store, in Mckelligon Canyon, provides a number of essential items for overnight visitors. Although these sites are limited in both availability and amenities, the beauty of staying overnight in the state park makes it a rewarding experience.
