Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial start of summer travel season, and if your road trip takes you along Interstate 20 through East Texas, you already know the challenge: finding a clean, full-hookup RV park with easy highway access, room for big rigs, and a quiet night’s sleep after a long day of driving. For thousands of RVers heading west toward Dallas or east toward Tyler and beyond, Canton I-20 RV Park in Wills Point, TX has become the go-to stop on the I-20 corridor — and for good reason.
Whether you’re making a one-night pit stop, spending the long weekend exploring First Monday Trade Days, or looking to park for the summer while working a local contract, Canton I-20 RV Park delivers the combination of convenience, comfort, and value that summer travelers demand.
Interstate 20 cuts straight through the heart of East Texas, connecting travelers from Louisiana to West Texas across hundreds of miles of open highway. The stretch through Van Zandt County — home to Canton and Wills Point — sits at a sweet spot: close enough to the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex for day trips, yet far enough east to feel like genuine Texas countryside.
What makes Canton I-20 RV Park stand out for summer road trippers isn’t just location — it’s the direct I-20 access with no stoplights entering or exiting the highway. For RVers towing fifth wheels, pulling travel trailers, or driving Class A motorhomes, that seamless on-ramp access is a genuine luxury. No navigating tight city streets. No traffic light timing with a 40-foot rig. Just smooth, stress-free entry and exit every time.
Add to that a large number of pull-through sites — a must for big rigs during busy summer travel weekends — and you have an RV park that was clearly designed with road travelers in mind.
If your Memorial Day travel schedule has any flexibility, Wills Point and Canton are worth more than a single overnight. The area surrounding Canton I-20 RV Park offers a surprising range of activities for families, couples, and solo travelers looking to stretch their legs and explore East Texas.
First Monday Trade Days in Canton is one of the most iconic shopping events in the entire country. Held the weekend before the first Monday of each month, this massive outdoor market draws vendors and shoppers from across Texas and beyond.

Memorial Day weekend often aligns with or falls near a Trade Days event, making it the perfect excuse to extend your stay. Canton I-20 RV Park is just minutes from the Trade Days grounds — no shuttle needed, no long drives after a day on your feet.
