Welcome to Rolling Knolls RV Park, an RV park with a
homesteading flair.
We are now open!
Rolling Knolls RV Park offers outstanding seasonal camping in the mild climate of deep
East Texas. We are a family oriented, seasonal RV park with four sites currently and
room to grow. Our highly selective leasing requirements enable our tenants to live in a safe environment. We want you to call Rolling Knolls your new home.
We offer enough private green space at each site to grow your own
vegetable garden and/or raise chickens or rabbits, if you choose. To that end, we keep
an Idea Garden to promote gardening education. We also raise grass fed Aberdeen
Angus cattle, chickens, ducks, rabbits, and goats for ourselves. If you are interested,
you may learn from us how we raise and harvest our farm animals.
Our sites are designed to accommodate rigs of any size. Each site has its own fenced
yard and 10’x20’ deck. Every site has water, full sewer hook up, metered electric and
free satellite Wi-Fi. We also have an onsite laundry facility.
We are located 1.1 miles from the town of Timpson, population 989.
Timpson has a
grocery store, post office, hardware store, restaurants, gas station, medical clinic, library
and churches. We are surrounded by large acreage tracts consisting of cattle ranches
and timber.
Timpson, Texas is within easy and convenient reach of several colleges, three hospitals,
fine restaurants, antique shops, public golf courses, fishing and boating. We are located
30 minutes from Nacogdoches and 1 hour from Tyler.
Your hosts, David and Jean Dixon

In the late 1800’s, the HE&WT railroad went through four small towns in east Texas; Tenaha, Timpson, Bobo and Blair. The towns were so small that by the time the conductor called the last stop, the train was already through all four towns. So the conductor started calling out all four towns before the first stop. The phrase had a ring to it, and the story goes that during World War I, a National Guard unit composed of men from Shelby County started using the phrase in place of “hup, two, three, four” to honor their hometowns. That spread the chant further out into the world, where dice players started using it for good luck when trying to roll double fives. Country singer Tex Ritter wrote a song by the same name in the 1940’s, which memorialized the phrase even more. Tex Ritter grew up one county over from Shelby County, and is the father of actor John Ritter, of sitcom “Three’s Company” fame.
