Project Description
The project involves three elements intended to provide improved camping and day-use facilities for the Sam Houston Jones State Park, including replacing 10 trailer cabins with state park standard cabins, renovating the interior and exterior of a day-use area restroom, and constructing a new restroom to address an underserviced area of the park at a popular trailhead. The project provides improved camping and day-use facilities for increased recreational use of the Sam Houston Jones State Park, benefiting public visitors’ recreational experience.
