No supervision. People parked wherever they wanted. Someone parked in my spot because someone was parked in their spot. Couldn’t get ahold of anyone to correct the problem. Bathroom was just ok.

We had gone to the Ennis Bluebonnet Festival and left as soon as the band finished. We arrived at the park at 10:10 and the gate was locked. No one had given us a code to get through the gate like most parks do. There are 2 trailers parked by the gate so we had to go knock on their doors and get someone to unlock the gate. We will not be staying there again. Don’t like to have to go knock on a door at night

Beautiful views of the lake but site 5 was quite sloped making it difficult to level our 32' 5th wheel. Roads and sites are old and patched here and there (fresh road tar had just been put down in patches the day we arrived, opening day of the campground). There is no camp host or COE personnel to monitor usage of sites. Gate is locked at 10 pm.

Nice park. I enjoyed it. Would like the bathrooms to be maintained a little better. Full of spiders. Other than that, no complaints.

Our favorite little park. The storm of 21 took out a lot of trees but still we love it there

The camping was great. The only suggestion is that there are many pot holes in the roads, some very deep that needs repaired. Bad for campers and boat trailers.
