we had a very good time, unfortunately the electricity went off but was repaired in a reasonable amount of time. We did alot of hiking. Would definitely like you to add bicycle trail for children.

Asphalt parking pad surrounded by grass
Non moveable metal frame wooden picnic table on an oversized concrete slab
Metal fire ring with cooking grate

Quiet
Good night sky viewing as there are no street lights in park and shower/toilet facility had minimum lighting
Cons
Campers ignore basic rules/courtesy such as keeping dogs on leash and letting children run thru everyone’s campsites
Entrance gate unmanned (closed) 24/7 so lots of “drive-by” gawkers in the campground
Non campers consistently showered in the campground showers facilityGates to campground not locked overnight
TP not available in women's restroom SWEETGUM most of the 2 nights of our stay
No security drive-throughs by park staff
Unlevel parking pad Site #4

Non-climate controlled shower/toilet building, but did have a box fan sitting on the floor running

I love the large sites with mature trees for shade. A swimming area is needed to have a nice place to cool off in the Texas heat.

we only used the camp ground as a staging area from which we tripped out of daily, so we really did not use the facilities enough to give a really good perspective. But, for what we did use it was really nice.
Only one minor complaint, there was never anyone at the entrance booth to ask questions, pay balance or check in with, kind of odd but we managed.

Very hot and humid! Very beautiful with lots of trees. No swimming because of alligators in lake. Hiking, biking and sweat only. Not my favorite.
