Lake Ray Roberts

A Great North Texas Escape

Located in northern Texas, Lake Ray Roberts is home to the Ray Roberts Lake State Park. A super quick trip up interstate 35 to Sanger, then east among the majesty and beauty of the perfectly maintained park trails, and you've found paradise!

Not Just a Reservoir

Originally built in 1980 as a freshwater reservoir for the northern Texas area, Lake Ray Roberts is now a premier spot for a variety of activities. Boating, sport fishing, skiing, swimming, camping, hiking, and equestrian trails are just a few examples of what can be found around the 100+ mile shoreline.

The lake is leased to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation and maintained by the United States Army Corp of Engineers.

City Convenience with Country Tranquility

With a very close proximity to the Dallas/Fort Worth area, entertainment amenities abound. Lake amenities feature campgrounds (primitive and fully-featured with electrical hook-ups), RV parks, and day-use parks, all of which showcase the stunning beauty of Lake Ray Roberts.

With a dedicated full service marina and nine public boat launches, finding the perfect spot will be easy.

Trails, Tails, and Happy Campers

Ray Roberts Lake State Park hosts a wide variety of activities throughout the year. A few examples are: trail hikes, snake display shows, owl observation classes, fireworks shows, and even a few fishing tournaments. During last season's few drought periods, Lake Ray Roberts did not experience a significant drop in water levels, which means a fantastic trip anytime.
