All the camp host are amazing! Thank you Mrs. Ann for the fish and cucumbers. Thank you Mr. Randy and all other host for going the extra mile to help my sister and I. Yes there are some spots in the road but I have been in far worse. Just drive the speed you should be and you will be fine! We will be back!!

This park has great space a beautiful view. The roads are terrible, there is no entry before 10 am or after 10 pm. The camp host is friendly, and works hard to enforce to rules. Would stay here again.

I've stayed here twice - once over July 4th weekend. Stayed two weeks both times. New to the RV life, but by far my favorite campground in Texas so far! Peaceful and quiet, ample space at the campsite. Even holiday weekend aren't super wild like other campgrounds I've stayed at. Camp host, Randy, was very friendly and helpful when needed. Plenty of space to hike and walk my dogs. Showers aren't great but sufficient. Only complaint is the road needs a lot of repair. Still, I'll be back :)

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
