Huntsville State Park was my basecamp for hiking the Lone Star Trail.

I camped in the water only section of the camp, which was nice, but most of it was on a slant, which can be an issue when it rains. The campsites all had tables, fire rings, water spouts, and a hook

The nearby bathrooms were clean and there were showers. In the same section, there is a pier you can fish off of and a small playground.

At the enterance or with the park hosts, you can buy firewood at $5 for 10 pieces of wood, which is a great deal! Most places have the price at $1 per piece of wood.

There is a nice day use that has tables and bbq pits. You can be in the forest or by the water.

There is a boat ramp you can use and there is a swimming area with a raft to jump off of. However, there are alligators in the water, but the park rangers are good about checking on their activity.

There are a few trails in the park, but I wasn't able to hike any on this visit.

I did visit the nearby stature of Sam Houston. It is free to visit and is billed as the tallest statue of an American Hero anywhere in the world. It's worth checking out.
