Lavonia

Volunteers were very nice. It was depressing to see them forced to work in a entry house with serious need of repairs.

There was a blue tarp over the roof (on one side) preventing leaks I assume. Tarp was worn and clearly had been there for extended time.

Site had serious erosion and mud, trash and glass shards.

Other sites appeared closed and in need of maintenance.

I stayed at this park a few years ago and it was in need of TLC then, has gotten very depressing to see, after visiting other ACRE campgrounds.

This could be an excellent campground, but its extremely sad to see what this place is compared to other Core campsites.

Its a convenient lay over, but not a destination site (in its current state)

This should be a premier core campground. Not volunteers or host problem. Just seeing what they were required to work in validated that.

It honestly depressing to see, after visiting a few other Core Campgrounds to compare with.

Nice, clean & quiet place to stay NE of Dallas.

We always enjoy Lavonia. It is one of the very few Army Corps Campgrounds with sewer. The sites have about 200 ft between them and just about all of them overlook the lake. Shopping, churches, restaurants are all no more than 15 minutes way. Don’t know why, but a very underrated CG. We camped in a 40ft motorhome. Normal rates are $30 per night. The senior pass makes the rate $15 per night. There is a maximum 2 week stay.

Full hookups are nice. Very large sites with great views of the lake. The restrooms in the A loop were recently upgraded and very nice. Boat launch restrooms are not nice at all. Not sure about others. Beautiful sunsets over the lake. Watch out for lake road. If coming from the south (i30) do not follow GPS to take lake road from tx-58N. Go another mile and you meet lake road again. That entrance is MUCH better. Highly recommend siren rock brewery in rockwall. Beer and food are both excellent. We were in site 19 at which the sewer pipe was sticking a foot out of the ground. Hard to get a good downward slope to the hose.

Quiet and clean, very nice workers.

Peaceful, great place to stay. Clean showers, and friendly staff.

This rating is for the park staff They were very easy to work with. The bath houses were nice and clean and the camp grounds were clean. We stayed there during an ice storm and never really got to enjoy the park.

Very friendly camp hosts. Clean and quiet. We stay here every time we visit grandkids

Perfect campsite

Thoroughly enjoyed our time at the park camping. Seems that the park is run down, grills are mostly broken and rusted out. Peacefull and beautiful lake view.
