Small state park

We just came here for a couple hours on our way through to Beavers Bend. The park is really small and there isn’t a lot to do but the facilities are pretty decent. The bathroom was one of the cleanest I’ve seen. Kudos to the camp host/ranger. There is a pretty big playground and a big picnic pavilion too.

Raymond Gary Campground

Camping here on a Sunday night was great. I am not sure how busy it gets during high camping season, but we had the place basically to ourselves. The campgrounds themselves are not anything spectacular, but I mostly value solitude while camping. The campsites closest to the lake are pretty crowded together and not many sites have established fire rings, those that do are the user created variety. But the campground is kept up. If you are looking for a bit more privacy there is a separate camping area; it off the main road down a small gravel road hill. It is a bit more secluded, but a ways from the restrooms.

Nice park with a lot of features

This is a fairly dated park that has several features to appeal to both tent campers as well as RVers. First there are several areas to camp but my favorite spots are down by the lake. The primitive spots are VERY primitive with a few fire rings and even some that have a cover over the tables however these areas don't have a bath house close by. The spots by the lake have bathrooms, fire runs, unbroken tables and a nice lantern post that over look the small lake. Hiking is light to non existent hear but it would make a great kayak or jet ski weekend trip.
