Disappointed in reservation system. We had a confirmed reservation for one night while traveling through the area. Upon arrival told that previous occupant had not left yet. While waiting we were told the previous occupant was able to extend their stay therefore cancelling our reservation for that site. Please know that the camp hosts were apologetic and very helpful in locating another site for us. It only seems appropriate that a site paid for in advance should be available without threat of being turned away.

Good location. Good walking trails. Would be nice if each camp sight had its own water supply. Bring plenty of water hose.

This was our first stay anywhere in our RV. The rangers were very helpful and made sure we had a great site that was easy to park at. The camp area is not huge but was had all that we needed.

Sanders Cove is a clean and well maintained Corps of Engr. park.
We were in a water and electric camper site in Loop A. Some of the sites might be a bit short for long RVs but they were fine for our 24 ft pull trailer and pickup. We had a nice view of the lake, with pretty sunsets.
The park is only 12 mi North from Paris, TX. We visited downtown Paris on Saturday. I am a Ham Radio operator, and the Main Trading Company store has a great inventory. Other fun places to visit are Swaim's Hardware and 107 Restaurant.

It was a excellent experience just like always, we love Sanders Cove park but this last trip it was great we set up on a great spot where we are 20' from water and 20' from restroom, It was a great experience for the kids riding their bikes in the trails. Dad cooking and fishing whit the rest of the kids.

We were very pleased with the set up of this park. Of course we all base our reviews from what we know and from what we have experienced, it was a very nice park. The one this that needed attention was the bathhouse. It needed some cleaning and probably some additional lighting. It seemed so dark which no one likes when they are using the bathhouse.

I've only been at Sander's Cove in the winter but it is very nice there! Love walking down to the beach and viewing the water.
