I had visited Hords Creek about 55 years ago. After hearing of the good times I had with cousins back then my wife suggested we go. Reservations.gov worked great. I did make a call to the lake to help me narrow down my search. We were really impressed with the Campground, large paved sites, maintained lakeside area, the lake is a little low right now but we were still able to fish (and catch catfish) from the bank. We rode bikes all over the North side of the lake, several times. As a kid I didn't remember how well the campsites were layed out here. The Group Facilities were also nice with several RV elec and water hookups with the shelters. We'll be back.
