Speegleville Park

We enjoy the lake front campsites whit direct access to the water and boat parking/launching

This park has been our go-to destination since it first opened.
Pros:
Conveniently located close to our home.
Near enough for our children and grandchildren to visit regularly.
A wonderful community of campers who make the park enjoyable.
The current hosts are very friendly and welcoming.

Cons:
Unfortunately, the park's maintenance has declined significantly. The grass is no longer mowed regularly, this makes it difficult for children to play at their campsites or in the common areas.

The BBQ pits, picnic tables, and pavilions are FILTHY and have not been properly cleaned in years. Campers are left to clean these facilities themselves before use.

Additionally, the pavement throughout the park is in poor condition. There are large potholes at the entrance and throughout the campsite areas that need immediate attention.

Trees are not maintained and limbs are falling regularly.

We truly enjoy this park and the people who stay here, which is why it's disappointing to see these maintenance issues continue. With proper upkeep and attention to cleanliness, this could once again be an outstanding place for families and campers to enjoy. And yes, with all of these issues, we still camp at this park. Look at the PROS again! Plus, we are some of the very people who CLEAN our sites, mow our grass, pick up trash, cut a limb here or there to keep them from hitting our camper, spray for insects and genuinely take care of the spot we are camping in EACH AND EVERY TIME! I would like to see the Corp take the same pride in this park AGAIN!!

We stayed in space 2. There is not a cover over the table but the location is great for bank fishing.

Camping site #2 had past foundation repairs performed and now the pad for parking your camper is Half road base rock mixed with a white powder like what is put on an old country road. It gets tracked into your camper every time you enter. and the pad itself is severely out of level and is a challenge to level the trailer. The parking area is good it has asphalt. the overall upkeep around the park was ok.

The grass needs to be mowed more often. To me the grass should be cut at least once a month. Seems to never be cut.

Very well kept.

Very nice, well-maintained park just a short drive from Waco. Friendly and helpful park staff. Most sites are huge with plenty of space. Our pull-thru site was very long with asphalt parking pad, grill, fire pit, and lantern pole. Covered picnic table was on a large concrete pad surround by decomposed granite patio.

No playground but large field and loop is great for biking. Boat ramp has large parking area.

Love deer? This is the park for you. Plenty around along with birds and squirrels. Zero issues with insects.

Bathhouse was clean. Men's and Women's restroom with 3 stalls and 2 sinks. 4 shower rooms with shower and dressing areas divided by a wall. Sitting bench, shelves, and hooks available. 2 handicap accessible rooms with toilet, sink, shower, bench, shelf, and hooks. All shower rooms are lockable.

Dumpsters located between sites 25 & 26 and near bathhouse.

Dump station is two lanes and easily accessible from either direction. Unfortunately, the dump port is several inches above grade on top of a steel platform which made dumping uphill a royal pain.

Absolutely loved site 22. BUT, this time just like EVERY time, we had to take our own mower and weedeater to mow our site. Ants were everywhere. The part that's getting VERY hard it just getting into the park!!! The potholes (craters) are so deep and so wide there is no way to avoid them. PLEASE FILL THE HOLES.

They are lacking in the mowing the camp sites. I understand when campers are there, but they can see the reservations and schedule mowing. The grass around the shower and restroom area was so ridiculously high no one wanted to use them.

Bring your own mower unless something changes Corp of Engineers no longer cleans or mows their parks this has been going on at least 2 years. The sewer dump is made for tall campers only if you have a sewer outlet that is not at least 14 inches off the ground this dump is unusable.
