Beautiful setting. I was surprised by how run down the campground was— in need of very general maintenance.

Incredible campground, best in the park. Go here if you can over pine springs.

Likely one of the most beautiful and serence places to camp in all of Texas. Always clean and the volunteer ranger is just a joy to interact with, he's been there almost 20 years.
