The site was quiet and relaxing even with a light rain shower occuring. The main loop trail around the campsite was sufficent for us who was there for the weekend. The shower on site was good though the push button took a bit getting used to.

Verizon had spotty coverage but when it did connect it was enough for email, calls and texts alongside low quality video streaming.

Our site was a little too sunny for us but all in all it was a good site. We like to walk the trail between the loops but due to how unlevel it is we had to walk in the road. Cagle is a great park.

Very quiet and peaceful setting, lots of shade, close to the water, close to New Waverly or Willis if you need supplies or a good hamburger!

Some pin head parked his horse trailer in my spot. Went riding for hours. Dropped Horse $hit on my site. Should have been arrested for trespassing and dropping biohazard on my site. I know if I dropped black water there I would be banned.
