There are some very serious electrical issues happening inside this park. Campers are being damaged due to electrical problems at several campsites. Costing people hundreds of dollars to repair and the head park ranger believe his name is Cody something continues to say there isn’t a problem. People are having to move from campsite to campsite to find one with correct power. This problem has been going on since December and it’s now February and there is still sites closed because of electrical problems. This has always been a great park with great folks at the gate and great guest. From what I have seen and heard don’t come here to camp without a serge protector for your rv!! Have seen 2 damaged while camped here.

Was closed booked a reservation got a confirmation and it’s closed into march 1. Very disappointed in the lack of communication leading up to the arrival. If it was closed then you should have not been able to reserve an area.

OMG. This place is a hidden gem. I so with we had more time to spend here. The sites were adequately spaced and every location had a great view of the lake. If you have a boat or a kayak you will be in heaven. If you a birder, same. Also, we didn't need the showers but I noticed they had a nice supply of heat in there which would be nice for those who needed it. It's about nine miles to a big grocery but I saw a sign about a convenience store close. I hope to return to this campground!

What a beautiful place. The view was very nice. Watching the sunset over the lake was gorgeous. Make sure you have a fishing pole. We will be back soon. Our dogs had a great time too.

It is a very nice, clean, and quiet park. On the water and very family-oriented.

The campground was very well maintained and clean. The sites where decent size and good locations with the water accessible. We camped March 25 2024 and stopped for a few more days ending our TX winter camping trip. It was really windy where we only took the Yaks out a few times. The fishing was good for my wife and I even caught 2 on our last day before we went home. Ha! The area was deep in the Texas Pines in the middle of nowhere. The locals where very nice and informative on fishing and the local area. We checked out the campgrounds on the lake and decided this campground was the best for camping with wanting to have the yaks within sight on the water. It seemed like a good lake to fish and explore in the Hobie. We will be back...
