We had a great trip to Double Lakes and really enjoyed our visit. The only negative for this trip was the poor cell service and having to search for and area where our phones would work.

Lovely campground. My only complaint is that the bathroom closest to my campsite was closed.

Double Lake is a gem within a reasonable drive of Houston. the lake is nice with a foot trail around it and the other mountain bike trails are well maintained and marked. I just hope this secret can stay as it is for many generations to come.

Although the weather was dreary it is a nice campground. We hiked the asphalt path around the lake. The bathrooms were clean.

This is a really nice campground with a nice walk around the lake on a paved path. Pill through sites are long enough for big rigs. The restrooms were clean.
We stayed in site 32 with our 40’ 5th wheel and we had plenty of room. The site was a full site with a fire ring and table close to trailer. The bathrooms are not a long walk. We saw some deer on our walk as well as a Bittern. We will be back.

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.
