About This Access Site
Walnut Creek Resort & Marina is a privately operated facility on Lake Texoma near Gordonville, Texas, accessible via US 377 north of Whitesboro. The resort features a two-lane paved boat ramp suitable for vessels up to 20 feet, along with a courtesy dock, gas fuel dock, convenience store, and public restrooms. Trailer parking is adequate for day-use visitors. This is a family-friendly, full-service marina with additional amenities including RV sites and rental cabins for those planning extended stays.

Lake Texoma, formed on the Red River between Texas and Oklahoma, offers stable water conditions ideal for kayakers and canoeists. The Red River itself is a major waterway spanning nearly 928 miles with significant flow averaging over 68,000 cubic feet per second. At this location on the lake, you'll find calm water conditions more suitable for recreational paddling compared to the swift current typical of the free-flowing river sections downstream.

The area provides good access for day trips and serves as a convenient launch point for exploring Lake Texoma. Nearby attractions include Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge, making this an appealing base for paddlers interested in wildlife viewing and nature recreation.
