Cedar Hill State Park is located on Joe Pool lake which is about 10 miles southwest of Dallas in Cedar Hill. Cedar Hill is set among the rolling well treed hills on 1826 acres. and a number of sites are on the water. You can read Texas Outside’s review of Joe Pool Lake to learn more about the lake.
A typical day at Cedar Hill Park includes enjoying the lake for skiing, anchoring and swimming, or heading over to Lynn Creek Marina and the floating restaurant the Oasis for food, drinks, and live music.
If you are into hiking, Joe Pool has a good hiking trail. We always bring the bikes and hit the trails which are fun and challenging.
Occasionally we will camp at Joe Pool and go to the horse races at Lone Star Park. Check their schedule, they usually have some great music for the price of entrance to the track (around $3). We have seen Pat Green, Jack Ingram, and some other great bands.
