Had a horrible experience at this campground. It looked nice when we pulled in but it all went downhill from there. Would definitely NOT recommend for anyone tent camping; although advertised for both RVs and tents, the winds coming off of Lake Waco can be damagingly strong. We staked both our tent and rain fly but the winds were so forceful that our tent poles were bent beyond repair. Couldn’t even stay one night - we had to disassemble everything, pack it all up, and make last-minute reservations at a hotel less than 3 hours after arriving at our campsite. Also, the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting. While we obviously don’t expect much from campground bathrooms, this one was the worst we’ve ever seen. The building was falling apart, looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in years, and there was no running water so we couldn’t shower or flush toilets. Although we’ve enjoyed all other state parks we’ve camped in so far, we will never return to or recommend Speegleville. If you’re camping in an RV, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad, but if you plan to tent, DO NOT stay here.
