Welcome aboard and I hope you enjoy your time here.

Can't help a lot with your question. As you can see by my avator, being able to "pull off the road" is not really an option for me:laugh:! In addition, finding a quiet spot on the weekend near DFW may be tough to come by. Also, in Texas, there is very little (probably none in the DFW area) "public" land where this would be an option. I will say that if you can get away during the week in the early spring and into the fall, there are a good many places where you can often be alone. There have been many times in the early part of the year when DW and I have been the only ones in Cleburne SP. Also at the same time of year at Mineral Wells SP, you may not be alone but the layout can make you feel like you are. Some of the area "Corps" parks can offer the same types of options during these times of the year.

People tend to camp less during the early spring and late fall. Fewer still have the option to be out during the week. Main reason we won't give up our mid-week "weekend" for anything even though our seniority would give us anything we want:cool:. Hope this helps some and you find what your looking for.

Happy Camping!
