Double lake is a serene place with many things to see and do. Quiet and peaceful is the best way to describe the atmosphere. The trees are a nice break from the city and the grounds are only ~ 40 minutes from downtown Houston. Would recommend if you are seeking silence/serenity to go on weeknights to avoid families with small children etc, sound carries very well at the site. Bathrooms/showers are located very close to tent sites. A beautiful place, we intend to return frequently to escape.

The facilities were well cared for. The host and park manager were very helpful and friendly. We have been camping there for 22 years now. As always very quiet and peaceful.

I am a mountain biker so the trails are the main reason I camp at Double Lake. They are well laid out and stay in great condition. The restrooms/showers are always very clean. The campsite itself was also empty of fallen leaves creating a nice clean hang out area. The hosts are friendly and on this trip repaired a leaky faucet after dark. The nearby town of Coldspring has a nice little grocery store (Brookshire Brothers) so you can either bring your own food or pick things up locally so you don't have to transport everything from home.
