The atmosphere was incredibly calm and peaceful, making it the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle. The restrooms were exceptionally clean, which is always a big plus when camping.

One of the highlights was the hiking trail nearby, offering beautiful scenery and a great way to explore nature. Jessie, who was taking care of the site, was friendly and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed.

Overall, a fantastic experience—I would definitely recommend this campsite to anyone looking for a relaxing outdoor escape!

Most sites are not level. There should be some kind if boat n vehicle parking by your paid sight, especially if those vehicles are registered on your reservation system

Campsites we clean and well kept.
Bathrooms need repairs on interior doors and shower.
Checkout time of noon is too early. I was there for a fishing tournament that lasted until 3 on Sunday .

We did a quick overnight stop on the way back from Galveston to Plano in late February. The weather was cool, but we quite enjoyed our stay. The park is wooded and right next to the lake with comfortably sized campsites and full hook ups. There is a small boat ramp and a nice courtesy dock. We enjoyed a short walk on the trail that starts near the dock. We both wished we had more time to stay and explore the area. It was very peaceful.

A beautiful lakeside getaway for my girlfriend and I. We had no complaints with the facilities, and our host Jesse was very helpful. Would definitely like to come back (maybe on a less rainy weekend!)

Nice park, I liked that the camping area had plenty of space.
Bathrooms were average. Could use some upgrades.
