Marion County, Texas

Marion Location Map Texas

Water, water everywhere. That’s Marion County for you. This east Texas county is home to Caddo Lake, a maze of bayous and wetlands. It’s a fisherman’s paradise. You can even take a riverboat tour.

The county seat is Jefferson with its antebellum homes that line the streets. The Big Cypress Bayou snakes through the county. It’s beautiful and a bit eerie, especially when the mist rises in the morning.

Marion County has a rich maritime history. It was a major river port back in the day. Don’t forget Lake O’ the Pines. Now, it’s quieter. But that’s part of its charm. The locals are friendly. They’ve got stories to tell. And the pine forests? They smell like heaven after a good rain.
