Sanders Cove

We love the setting at Sanders Cove and booked it specifically to have a pretty tree-covered spot overlooking the lake. The grounds are well maintained and we really enjoy the hiking trails. Unfortunately we were disappointed during this visit as we planned to work during the week of our stay but had zero cell coverage and experienced almost no service using Starlink, which is very reliable almost everywhere. We also did not see anyone from the park during our 8-day stay (not even while checking in at the specified time) and due to the campers next to us had fires during a burn ban and leaving their site a mess with trash. Even though we were there during the off season, we expected to be greeted or visited by the camp host and for them to enforce some campground rules with our neighbors. It may not keep us from coming back but definitely took away from the experience as a whole, and we’ll be sure to remember it’s the place you need to plan to disconnect from all service.

Like the pull through we had a great weekend, nice camp ground

Wish I could say positive things, but like a lot of Army Corp parks this place is poorly managed and not really maintained. Nobody was at the gate house the entire time, and I never saw anyone who appeared to work at the park. Pretty sure there were meth-heads squatting at the park long term because there was no one there to run them off, and it times it felt a bit unsafe. The bathrooms were disgraceful, especially on the C loop, and I have a photo to prove it. Whatever you do, don’t try to launch your boat on the ramp on the C loop. The concrete has collapsed underwater and it has the potential to cause series damage to your trailer. Some guys were unable to pull their boats out of the water and had to drive and reload using the ramp on the A loop. Not sure if all of the problems are due to a lack of funding, or just general incompetence from government workers, but it is really sad and disappointing that these parks are not maintained well at all – Not just Sanders Cove, but most of the Army Corp parks I have visited in north east TX.

We love to camp at Sanders Cove. Iit's always clean and love the view.

This is a beautiful rv park and we always enjoy our stay.

Have camped in Loops A and C; most recently in Loop A, Site A17. All are very nice campgrounds with plenty of shade. Would like to have 50 AMP service.

When entering the camping area there are two loops. I took the one to the right and got to the exit without finding my spot. I then went back and went to the left at which time I found my spot. It would be very helpful it there was a arrow sign directing you to the spots that on the left and another showing the spots that are on the right loop.

Great place to camp.

Our campsite was shady a very nice spot!!!!! All camp hosts were friendly and helpful and kept an eye on everything several times a day!!! We would be very happy to stay here again and we really didn’t want to go home. Everyone we had the privilege to camp by were very friendly!!!!
The one thing I would tell future campers would be to be sure and bring a portable black tank if you plan on staying awhile. We didn’t and thankfully we purchased one at Spencer’s RV. Other than that, which was our fault, we had an amazing time and made some great friends

There is no signage directing you to Sanders Cove off U.S. Highway 271, so make a left off of 27l onto FM 906. There is a grocery store at this corner. The road leading to the camping area is very rough and patched numerous times.
