The park and staff were excellent and was an alternative to another camp reservation that was cancelled. The campsite itself however, was too close to the road and had a lot of traffic.

No one comes around to check on outside visitors that take over the park . Many day users take up the parking by the boat ramp where you park your vechicle and trailer . People pull their trailers right behind your site and you can not watch your kids in the water or enjoy the view because they have blocked it ! Yes ! They pull right up on the grass and leave it there. They are not even registered to camp here . I know this a fact, because one individual runs his jet ski/ boat rental company from Preston Bend .
Billy Ian’s and Jadon Talley have been notified.
Nothing is being done . They turn their heads and let the illegal parking and free day users take over . A shame . This was once a nice family park with a park entrance host that took care of this . You would think the Park Rangers would do their job now . I have called , complained, tried to understand why they allow herds of people come in and use the space at their will.

The ants were out of control but that is to be expected when your camping.
