About: This 2,050-acre park is proud to serve as a premier fishing destination with its 1,000-acre stream-fed lake. As the primary park attraction, Lake Jackson, in addition to providing outstanding fishing and swimming opportunities, also features shoreline picnic areas. Lakefront RV camping sites with cable TV hookups and a nice modern bathhouse make it a great camping destination. There’s also a natural island, with a boardwalk and walking path.
Facilities at Frank Jackson State Park include a handicap accessible bathhouse, picnic pavilion/shelter and walkway located adjacent to the campground. There are 32 RV campsites, three of which are handicap accessible. You may tent camp in the RV sites, at the regular rate. There are no separate tent camping sites at this time.
A boardwalk/bridge leading from the boat ramp/parking area to the island, is one of the many unique features at Frank Jackson State Park. A short walking trail loops around the island, which provides limited access to the shoreline. An educational kiosk is located at the trail entrance and provides information on birds and small mammals, which may be seen in the park.
