Townsend Park, located on Sam Rayburn Reservoir, was completed in 1966. The area provides visitors with a rustic camping experience in a tranquil setting. The boat ramp provides access to the lake most of the year. This area is operated and maintained by San Augustine County.

Whether in an RV or tent camping, visitors have 19 sites to choose from on B & C Loops, and each site has a picnic table and campfire ring which can be used as a cooking grill. Portable toilets are available within a short distance of each campsite. There is no drinking water provided at Townsend.

A waste/dump station is available for RVs at nearby Jackson Hill Park, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers facility, for a fee of $4.00. There are no sites with electrical hookups.

A picnic shelter is located on the grounds which accommodates up to 50 people. For reservations, call San Augustine County at (936) 275-2762. In consideration of other visitors, no off-road vehicles may be ridden in the campground.
