Wes Cooksey Park
Located just south of Camp Wood, Wes Cooksey Park provides a classic outdoor experience where the focus remains on the stunning natural scenery. The surrounding landscape features rugged limestone bluffs and ancient cypress trees that are iconic to the Nueces Canyon. Visitors will find themselves completely immersed in a rural, riverside setting that feels secluded, yet it remains a convenient base for exploring the winding roads and small-town charm of Real County.
