Canadian is nice but the grass burrs drove us to Big Bend. Love the trees and the fact we can walk through the grass with our dog and not seem like a bed of nails. Sites are large and well spaced and views of the lake are great. 99% of campers respect the calm it down after 10 rule. Not a knock on the campground because they are great, but to the people that want to blast loud music and comedy channels to 3am: I like that too sometimes but get a hayfield bonfire instead of a campsite.

A13 had nice shade - especially in the afternoon. Sites have covered picnic table fire ring & grill.
Bathroom/showers are dated and did not get hot. Shower house is not nice at all. Odd layout and dirty the week we were there. Beautiful views of lake. New disc golf course. Most sites have shade trees in the B loop and many in the A loop. Fish for sand bass, crappie, catfish & hybrids. November of each year you can boondock for free, all services are turned off.

My only complaint is that site A31 needs a cover over the table other than that, very nice site and beautiful view of the lake the bathroom was very nice. A great place to escape for a weekend or longer I will be back.
