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

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!)

Loved Sam Houston national Forest. The peace and quiet of the campground and riding my motorcycle on the multi use trail. Loved being in the piney woods if only for a couple of days.

The campground is surrounded by the Sam Houston national forest. Other than the occasional noisy speed boat, it is very peaceful. There were some issues with the hiking trails directly around the campground. Some of the trails were closed due to foot bridge problems. The facilities are fairly well maintained and everything works in the restrooms.
