Took my family of 5 up there and backed in our 26ft. Jayflight trailer. Had a great time overall. Rangers and hosts were friendly and helpful. Campsite were maintained with plenty of space between sites. The spacing made each site somewhat private and that was nice. Kids loved the playground. Downsides were WIFI was only accessible within 30ft. range of host site, the lake was pretty far from our site (which was site 43), and lastly everything was dry (I get it. It was October, so of course everything was dry, but it was still a downside. We will just have to return in the spring for those green rolling hills).

Beautiful campground! It has everything, many sites have water/electricity, five sites have sewer, and there’s a dump station nearby. Sites are paved and mostly level, with plenty of space around each one. Many have views of the lake which is unfortunately very low right now. There’s three bathrooms, each with one shower. The cell service was very poor for AT&T, but there’s a hotspot at the check-in booth which really helped. There’s a boat ramp and a really nice fish cleaning station. We stayed five nights, and in late October, there were only a handful of sites occupied. We’ll be back, hopefully the lake will be higher.

It was clean, quiet (after 10), and serene as described. All amenities were fully functioning. Wi-Fi is slow (but there's something), Cell signal and water level currently low.

Tarantulas we’re out in early November! I saw several! Beautiful campground! Very well maintained and patrolled by Park rangers. Tranquil setting of green rolling hills amongst massive oak trees! Access to lake even though it was very low. I’ll be back!
