Great campsite. Verizon wireless works very well. Beautiful sunrise if you camp in the single digit lots. The grounds manager Shelton was super nice and welcoming. Nice hiking, bike trails and fishing. Coldspring is not but a few minutes away for any town needs.

I am a scoutmaster with a troop out of Houston. We really loved our stay at Double Lake. One group was able to take advantage of the bike trails and another group had a great time hiking the trails. I hope to return soon, with or without the scout troop. It's a beautiful park !

The double campsite was very nice. It was reasonably level. It gives a good degree of privacy. The camp host was very cordial and helpful. We could have a campfire. The showers need work, no hot water.

This park was wonderful! It was quiet and has lots of trees. The hosts in our loop were the best! My husband had an e-bike accident that landed us in the ER. The hosts checked on us and even gave us their personal cell #s in case we needed anything. The lake was low but it has a paved walking trail that is very nice. We will definitely be back. I think this was our favorite COE park thus far.

In a word, "wonky". Don't think there was a level site in the park. Even the paved trails were wonky. It was memorable.
