Everything was great except the grasses were super tall and the boat ramp at the dam was cluttered with debris; we hand cleared half to launch, which was used by Everyone. Understandable with the storms and rain; however, it was Memorial Day, and stayed like that for the whole weekend.

The campground is very nicely laid out. We stayed in site 29 and it was level…no blocking up. It was very spacious. Seemed like most on the inner circle were the same. Other family stayed in site 6 on the Caney and very littke leveling required there. Grandson and friends spent lots of time at playground. Really good experience. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star rating was because the grass was VERY high. I think a fellow camper said the Grass had been cut once or twice since opening and all COE campgrounds are experiencing the same with cut back made.

This campground is below the dam on the Caney river. Not a good place for kids to play, swim or fish really. You can fish from the dam steps or the boat ramp but when they are generating the water is turbulent. It is beautiful and peaceful. The closest stores for forgotten supplies is about 15 minutes away. The campground does NOT have or store or even firewood. There is a closer station but it closes at 6pm so you have to plan for that. Canoe the Caney was a great adventure! You can experience the river and fish while kayaking/canoeing, about 15 min. to their pickup location/storefront.
