Double Lake Recreation Area is a beautiful and clean park set in a tranquil wooded environment, ideal for hiking and biking. Campers appreciate the friendly and helpful hosts, well-maintained sites, and clean restrooms.

Many of the campsites have been restored (replaced old fire rings, new soil laid down to replace what has washed away over the years, etc.). We have been camping here for over 20 years! The lake is small but beautiful. Perfect for smooth water canoeing, kayaking, etc. The camp hosts are very helpful and interactive (just send a text and they respond quickly). There is a side for RVs and groups, and a side for tents, so the tent side is nice and quiet. Also, the camp is imbedded in the Lone Star Hiking Trail, so a couple of hours along the trail is worth doing. And fishing is better than it has been in the past. The fish are small but fun to angle for.
