Is RV parking available inside the Original First Monday Park?
The reserved RV area is located on Flea Market Road off Hwy. 64 West (by the Canton Civic Center). These sites are pull-through with full hook-ups. Reservations may be made one month in advance beginning at 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday following First Monday weekend. Call (903) 567-6556 to reserve.
There is a three-night minimum on advance reservations. Payments are non-refundable and non-transferable and must be received in full by Friday, one week before the sale. Sites may be renewed for the following month if paid before 6 p.m. the Sunday of the sale.
Unreserved RV areas are located inside the West Gate entrance off FM 859. These rent on a first-come, first-serve basis. Full hook-ups are north (in front) of the Log Cabin. Please go to the Log Cabin office for assignment and payment of space prior to hooking up.
A dump station is located at the Flea Market Road entrance to the RV Park. Honeywagon service is available through AAA Sanitation (903) 593-5909 or 800-919-5909. Back to top
