Happy Acres RV Park & Campground
What a gem!
This was my first time at an rv campsite by myself, and I sure lucked out with picking this one. I had read several reviews touting this place as being very well done with the nicest owners on the planet! Tamara and her husband were a highlight for sure. Tamara greeted me with the cutest mug with their logo and another was presented by Tamara when she found out this was my first solo trip! There aren’t enough words to express how grateful I am to happen upon this campground. An absolute must stay if you are in the area. Or even a destination if you’re looking for a great place to stay for a few days. They were so wonderful and welcoming I felt like I left good friends. I was only there one night!

Post Oak 2 — Lake Thunderbird State Park
Great campsite for the price
I enjoyed it, stayed on site 16 and the last time site 15. Decent shade for the most part. Not real far from the lake. Casino less than 5 mins away. They are gravel sites. Price is not bad. At the time was $25 a night.

Spring Creek
Typical camp park.
I came here, I usually go to BLM sites but this said it had showers, they were out of order. Staying, the bathroom had running water so... Campsites are close together but it wasn't crowded.

Hog Creek West — Lake Thunderbird State Park
Great location
Spent this past week here. My kid and dog loved being right next to the water . Campground was clean and quiet during the day. But it turns into a bit of jumanji at night "shunk only" edition. Not one racoon or snake, but its like the British invasion with the skunks. They are not afraid of people, and they never tried to spray us when we were shooing them away. My dog on the other hand, they didn't spare. Bathrooms are clean, watch out for the family of Volkswagen sized wasps in the lady's room. Showers are good. The shower on the side of lady's bathroom. Is the only one with cold water. The rest are scalding hot. Lake patrol, park rangers, and game warden patrol pretty good. And the camp host are awesome and so nice . The husband talked to me and my son about the fur babies of theirs etc. And the wife was really sweet and lovely . I highly suggest ... THANKS FOR A GREAT STAY!!!!
