Reklaw, TX

Reklaw is a tiny East Texas town of 255 people tucked into the Piney Woods of Rusk County. Visitors typically reach it via US Highway 259, then turn west on State Highway 204. The rolling, pine-covered hills create a classic East Texas timber country setting with hot, humid summers and mild winters. Cherokee County Airport sits about 15 miles northeast for those flying in. The town's quirky name comes from spelling "Walker" backwards, honoring a railroad official from the old Texas and New Orleans Railroad.
