Located in Lone Star on the scenic south end of Lake O' the Pines, Willow Point Marina provides access to Big Cypress Bayou in a quiet cove setting. To reach the ramp, take US 259 south from Lone Star and turn left on FM 729 before the Big Cypress Creek bridge; the access road is approximately 1 mile south of the intersection. This is a well-developed facility that serves as a hub for local boating activity and is home to the Longview Yacht Club.
Lake O' the Pines is a substantial 18,700-acre reservoir with calm, protected waters ideal for kayaking, canoeing, and recreational boating. The surrounding landscape features piney woods typical of Northeast Texas. The marina area itself is known for being a peaceful spot, making it suitable for paddlers of various skill levels seeking to explore the bayou's quieter waters. Nearby campground options at Johnson Creek Camp and Alley Creek Camp (both reservable) provide convenient lodging for extended outings.
