Welcome to Piney Woods Texas

For a different take on Texas, experience the Piney Woods of eastern Texas. A lush setting of endless forests, lakes, and rivers, Piney Woods is in stark contrast of what is expected of a typical Texas vacation! Village Creek State Park offers excellent fishing for catfish to bass to bluegill, swimming, and bird watching. The Big Thicket National Preserve near Beaumont is a natural spectacle, with some of the most dense and diverse nature in all of Texas. Canoe through the waterways of Big Thicket or relax with a nice picnic along rivers and beaches throughout the preserve. In fall, Piney Woods turns into a wonderland of colors, that can only be understood when seen first hand! Who’d of thought you could have a spectacular wilderness adventure in Texas?
