Johnson Park, Abilene, TX

Located at the north end of Lake Fort Phantom Hill, next to the dam, Johnson Park is largely a day-use area for picnics. However, camping is still permitted here by city ordinance, but there are no RV sites. Rather, you're expected to park in the parking lots, and set up tents on the grounds. You can still technically sleep inside your van, truck, or SUV, as long as your vehicle can fit in a parking space.
