Crew and rangers are extremely friendly, and helpful. I left my phone at the campsite picnic table and they retrieved and held it for me until I could return. Also were available on site most of the day and campground was extremely clean and well maintained. We will be back soon.

It was beautiful and had plenty of room to walk and the lake was beautiful.
Need more trash cans though.

Well kept. Nice site. I wish the government would provide more funding so roads and campsites could be in better condition.

I rode my bicycle to Mott Park from San Marcos Texas. I went out there from Ennis Texas, where I had to stay at a days as a motel six for two days cause I was early for my reservation at Mott Park. I got to Moss Park. I had a front tire on my bicycle going flat, pumped up went back to Walmart where they have all the camping supplies for Park and bicycle tires and bought me one bought my 12 pack of water and some other food items like canned food for my trip. Went back to Mott’s Park and enjoyed my stay never had to change my tire enjoyed. The weather it stormed that night and I stayed inside my tent and it was still good love every bit of it love Mott’s Park. Nice place to camp nice friendly people at the gate. They welcome me back next year. They’d love to see me they said anyway love Mott’s Park. That’s the second time I’ve ever camp there. And it storms at night the second time like the first time similar love the weather camping in the storms. I’ve done quite a bit up my life at different lake Front Lakeside Park properties and parks and always welcomed
when I show. I don’t mind the weather though. There is a Walmart about 10 miles down the road to get all your food supplies for the for the park if you need so or H-E-B there’s other outfitters there there’s chilies you can always go out to eat and other places like that. McDonald’s always get a burger and fries to go.

Beautiful park with nice views of the lake. Most RV spots are spaced apart nicely. However, the water well failed and we had NO water from Saturday morning until checkout Sunday morning. This created an inconvienance of us rationing water until we left. I will go back though as they had a nice park setting.

The park was freshly mowed, potholes patched and the damage from the flooding cleaned up. We had a great visit.
