Located approximately 8 miles west of Coleman, Hords Creek Lake is one of Texas' most pretty little lakes. The lake is surrounded by beautiful oak trees and offers many activities to all those who enjoy the outdoors. There is a park on each side of the lake, each providing roughly 60 campsites, all standard with water and electricity. The lake also provides premium sites including those with screened-in picnic tables, sewer sites, double sites, and even 50 AMP breakers. The lake also provides shelters for those without travel trailers. Away from your campsite, the lake provides an excellent place to fish or ski. Stocked with largemouth bass, crappie, channel catfish, blue catfish, flathead catfish, and bluegill, there is something for everyone. If you are looking to relax in a peaceful environment or looking to get out there on the lake, Hords Creek is your spot!
