History: Daingerfield State Park, in Morris County southwest of Texarkana, is a
506.913-acre recreational area (including an 80-surface-acre lake), deeded in
1935 by private owners and opened in 1938.
The original improvements were made by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC).
This area was the center of the iron industry in Texas; nearby is Lone Star
Steel Co.
Activities: The park offers picnicking; camping; boating (5 MPH speed limit);
fishing; swimming in an unsupervised swimming area; hiking; and nature study. A
seasonal concession (March - October) rents pedal boats and canoes. Tours may be
arranged by special request. Year-round boat rentals are available. |
