"Primitive camping along the 10mi Backbone trail. Took out the hammock and camped out around the halfway mark along the trail. You can set up shop around an old fire pit or make one of your own."
"CAMPGROUND REVIEW: Located inside the Kisatchie National Forest, Kisatchie District, this campground is great. This section of National Forest is home to over 30 miles of nature trails."
"Direct access to the overlook and the sandstone trail."

No water or trash pickup."

"We hiked along a few trails that were open (many have been closed due to covid maybe) and it was really fun, mostly flat hikes."
"This one is free though and is only about a 2 min drive. No hook ups and we got our 43 ft 5th wheel in just fine. There are atvs out here they didn’t bother us."

"We arrived during hunting season and it was a little busy but the hunters were very friendly if you don't mind a lot of people running around with rifles, etc. "
"Lots of trash behind some of the sites. Can definitely tell it’s a party spot. Or at least it used to be. All in all, this place is so secluded that no one drives out here and it’s 100% peaceful."
"The drive there was beautiful. Getting to the camp site was pretty straightforward through google Maps. You can pull ur vehicle right up your camp site."
"We stayed here for 4 days due to proximity to Kisatchie National Forest for the Red Dirt Ultra. We liked having laundry on site, clean and affordable. Our kids loved our long horn neighbors!"
"But nothing irks me more than reviews of various parks and campgrounds getting docked stars because nature is outside!"

GuideVery relaxing.
The pool was clean when we visited, and was nice and refreshing.
Everything worked, looks like they just redid the putt putt area.
ScoutVery nice people and a very well-kept campground. Great fishing in the lake and peace and quiet at the campground.
GuideThis RV Park is neat and clean. Each row of sites is named after a variety of Pecans. There is a pool and a pond. We enjoyed our stay.
ScoutNice toilet,his and hers. Only one spot for that .
TravelerI stayed at site 29 and the site was clean and level enough for my small camper. I went to plug in the power and the box was very old and no 30 amp plug. It only had a 50 amp and 110v plug. I have a 50 amp to 30 amp adapter but for some reason it was not in my box. I did have a 30 amp to 110v adapter so I had to go that route. There is a nice laundry, men and women’s bathroom with showers. On the men’s side of the 4 toilets 2 were out of service. The showers the water trickles out with little pressure but there was hot water. The showers along the walls need cleaning as there was mildew and maybe mold. The rest of the park was clean. The beach area and peers were very nice. There was dozens of people that are clearly living out here in the campground. Lots of them are really junked up. I paid $32 per night. You can tell this campground is minimally maintained given the broken toilets and unclean showers. The folks I met out here were super nice and very friendly. Fishing is really good and the swimming beach seemed very nice. They do have locked gates with security that makes rounds.
TravelerThis is a private campground for military, veterans, and their families. They have cabins, yurts, and tent sites. We stayed in a yurt and it was very comfortable. Nice clean beach and plenty of boat rentals. Fishing is good too.
ScoutI would like to start by saying this is a campground that is designed for young families, from the multiple sandy beach areas to the playgrounds, there was lot for my elementary age children to do. The bathhouses were cleaned every morning and I didn't see much trash lying around, other than our fire pit, but I assumed the previous tenants must have dumped some of their trash in the pit when leaving. Some of the issues I had are, because this campground is geared toward young families, there were a lot of kids running around unsupervised. There was a group of boys tearing the roof off the play house in one of the play grounds, another group jumping off the fishing pier while people were fishing, little kids driving golf carts around without adults on them (one time almost hitting a lady on a scooter), there were several dogs running around not on leashes, and even adult driving vehicles through the grassy play area rather than the roadway. The rules seem to no be enforced, including the no noise times of 10pm-7am. There were golf carts riding around with loud music until 1:30 am both nights. I never saw a single park attendant, other than the gate operator. We will likely try camping here again, but perhaps during the week while schools are in session to avoid the crowds.
