For being so close to Houston, it feels like you are far enough out to enjoy nature. The night time is quiet and everyone is respectful

We camped during the week. It was a nice peaceful location, with our campsite near the lake. Unfortunately they used the gas powered blower on a Wednesday morning (maybe it's every Wednesday?) which ruined the birding in the morning, but otherwise it was pretty peaceful during the week. The restrooms were clean and showers were ok but the water was lukewarm. Great trails to bike/hike/bird. Lake had a lot of lily pads in it so it was green but still very nice overall. We like this place for biking and come here often.

I stayed in the tent site area with a shared water spicket. The bathrooms are in terrible shape. One was totally closed and the one that was open, the host was struggling to keep it from smelling like a poorly kept nursing home. The pavement on the road was tolerable, but the paved parking spaces were in terrible disrepair. The host was very nice and accommodating and helped me find a spot that was Level for myself contained car camping unit.

Well maintained sites, restrooms cleaned regularly, sites spaced out enough for privacy. Fantastic time!
