Group Site A was not the most excellent spot to bring a large group as the tents can be only placed near the built-in canopy. However, the staff there was fantastic.

This camp site is very clean and well maintained. Park rangers and sheriff are very friendly. The water level of the lake is low, but we still had a lot of fun kayaking there.

I loved this campground for couple of reasons - spacious campsites ( few are quite big) and facilities. I was impressed when I saw a volley ball court in the campground. The lake water level is low and a guy comes over weekend with few kayaking rentals which can be a good family water activity.
the downside is that camp host informed us to be aware of active rattle snakes ( we couldn't find any in our 2 night stay). I liked the campsite 25 more than 27 but both are spacious enough.

We really enjoyed our stay at Codorniz. The campground is well-appointed and in good repair. The scenery is beautiful and the bird-watching was fun. Campsites have nice separation and the staff was very friendly.

Everything was great and clean. I went on April 29-30th hoping everything would still be green from the rain but unfortunately everything was pretty dead and dry. Great place to bring a dog, but they must be leashed; I was warned twice about rattlesnakes in the area.
