Nice individual campsites. Plenty of hiking and biking around. Maintenance could be a little better - entrance sign down, bathrooms kinda grungy

Double Lake Recreation Area offers a beautiful and peaceful camping experience with friendly hosts, well-maintained sites, and clean facilities. Many visitors appreciate the excellent hiking and biking trails, as well as the spacious, private campsites. While some areas need maintenance and improvements, overall, the park provides a great quick getaway close to Houston, making it a favorite for returning campers.

Paid the fee to reserve the lodge which was $148. Was then told I had to pay $7 for each vehicle to park. Called the number provided and was told I paid for 20 vehicles in my first payment of $148. Double lake then told us we did not pay for any vehicles. We ended up having to pay over $100 more for parking (we did not want our guest coming to our daughters first Birthday party to have to pay for parking). Once arriving, we learned there was no heat. They knew it was a first birthday party and it was In January and they didn’t mention the no heat nor am I aware of it listed anywhere. Also the tables were not like they said and it was not clean at all. I obviously had no idea what I was reserving or there is no way on earth I would have spent that amount to have a birthday party there. I was referred by someone who had a baby shower so I thought it was suitable but it is not at all (especially in the winter). We ended up having to buy space heaters so our guest would be comfortable enough to stay at the party. No one we can in contact with was any help when it came to figuring out any of the conflict. I would not recommend reserving this lodge for any function. We also had a biker come in the lodge and explain an individual that was harassing them outside.

Group site #D was great! It has its own little drive way and seems more secluded than the rest of the group sites. Other group sites are right on top of each other (A and B) and I wonder where everyone is supposed to park. Water is available at the sites even though it isn't listed as an amenity on Recreation.gov.
Note: During the week or when attendance is low park management closes the restrooms in the group loop due to potential vandalism concerns.
