Campers appreciate the friendly and helpful hosts, well-maintained sites, and clean restrooms. While some facilities need updates and there's limited fishing due to lily pads, the overall experience is positive, making it a popular getaway spot close to Houston.

This is our second stay at a National Forest in Texas. The area has a lot of trails and opportunities for biking or hiking
Some camp sites has FHU available
We were met by a slightly rude Camp host. He had more comments than suggestions. Some trails and campsites were very challenging due to not being level or up keep. The facilities are older and not well maintained

We thoroughly enjoyed our camping experience at Site 32 in Double Lake. The site is a large pull through with full hookups, and is relatively level. The site was cleared well for our visit, the bathrooms were in great shape and cleaned regularly, and we enjoyed hiking the trails through the park. The Park Hosts were very friendly, and were able to answer any questions we had about the park.

Campsite in great shape. Bathrooms clean. Hand dryer in bathroom did not work, but paper towels were provided. Would like to have a map of the trails in the area.

Beautiful day at the park. Well maintained. Friendly people (both employees and hosts). We had SO much fun! If I need to rent a pavilion for a picnic again, I will DEFINITELY come back here.
