Beautiful sites around the lake. Bathrooms are a bit of walk but were clean with hot water.

We always have the best experiences at Pat Mayse. We camped for the TMBRA Barber Hills hard labor race there and everything was wonderful!

We really enjoyed our stay here. It had a little playground, flushing toilets, showers, and a boat ramp to the lake. The spots were a little close together, but they were level. It was beautiful. I really only have two complaints. 1. Our site was supposed to have a water hookup. The closest one was about 30 yards away, shared with another site. Unfortunately, it only had one spout, so when someone was at that site, hooked up to the water, we didn't have any. 2. The showers were pretty terrible. Definitely in need of some repairs. The shower heads, if you can call them that, were awful. Sprayed every which way, and was more like a power wash. The lock on one of the doors was broken. 2 out of the 4 times I took a shower, there wasn't any hot water. I think they need a bigger, better water heater. However, it was better than no showers. The campground hosts were super friendly. All in all, it was a great place to stay. We wouldn't mind staying there again.

Very nice people working at the gate house. They were very helpful. Big thank you to Pam. We didn't have reservations but it didn't take long for her to find us a site and get checked in.

This loop was super quiet and spots were very roomy with great shade trees.
