We had a great stay at Double Lake camping in our RV. We got a site that backed up to the lake. The trees were trimmed high so that there were no issues with our 5th wheel that has a high clearance. The numbered sites were easy to read even at night. Nice and quiet, nearest neighbors were a good distance away. Very peaceful. Nice lake to hike and the hiking only Lone Star Trail that was very nice. Plenty of mountain bike trails to ride, we made a 14 mi loop. Only issue is that there is not a dump at the site we were on, probably cost prohibitive to build one there so close to the lake. The only dump sites were higher up and away from the lake.

The sites were clean. The park hosts were very helpful. The trails around the lake (at least on one side) were uneven and a hazard for young bike riders.

We always enjoy camping at Double Lakes. We tent camp, and the non-electric sites are wooded, and nicely secluded. Plenty of space for multiple tents. Host Shelton is always great, he's friendly, helpful and knowledgable. Highly recommend!
