Cleburne, Texas: Home Of RV Depot Supercenter

Cleburne embodies everything that makes Texas special—rich history, natural beauty, and genuine community spirit. As the county seat of Johnson County, positioned 50 miles southwest of Dallas, this thriving city of over 38,000 residents offers the ideal blend of small-town charm and big-city access. This unique positioning makes Cleburne the perfect base camp for RV enthusiasts exploring the best of Texas.

The city’s remarkable journey from its Civil War origins as Camp Henderson to today’s vibrant community tells a story of transformation and growth. The Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway’s 1881 arrival turned Cleburne into a transportation hub, a legacy that continues today as modern adventurers use the city as their launching point for RV expeditions. The historic Chisholm Trail that once brought cattle drives through town now inspires today’s trail-blazers seeking their own adventures across Texas.

What makes Cleburne special isn’t just its strategic location or historic significance—it’s the welcoming community and quality of life. With most residents owning their homes and enjoying the sparse suburban atmosphere, Cleburne maintains the space and freedom that outdoor enthusiasts cherish. The lower cost of living compared to Dallas suburbs means families have more resources for pursuing their passions, whether that’s weekend camping trips or extended cross-country journeys.
