Learn More About the Neches River

History

Originating in Van Zandt County and flowing southeast into Sabine Lake, the Neches River weaves through piney woods, historic towns, and protected wildlife areas. Long prized for its clarity and navigable stretches, it supports everything from bass fishing and canoeing to riverside camping and birdwatching. Today, private parcels along its banks offer rare opportunities for investment, recreation, and off-grid living.
