Everything was pretty wonderful. The trails were nice, the restrooms were clean, our camp hosts were very friendly and informative. One of the womens showers had quit working and they were already in the works of having it fixed. The lake was such a beautiful site.

Great little park, quiet, clean, and spacious. Also right outside of cold springs with little restaurants, and coffee shops near by.

First-ever camping trip for my boys. Beautiful location. Fishing was easy for first-timers. In a pinch, firewood vendors and gas stations are close to the park entrance.
The park rangers I encountered were excellent and very helpful. We will be back next month

Best place to go camping in a tent or a RV.

Hosts were great. Trails awesome.
Online pay time limits a hassle; in- person pay only in cash outdated nowadays, particularly when places unstaffed. Maybe give host’s mobile payment system or change online payments policies.
Also, which sites are pad-only or open use unclear and two-tent rule arbitrary. Seems to assume campers only use large family tents?
Still, great recreation area near Houston and well located for outdoor fun!
