Good place to stay the night because it’s close the 35W, but we’re literally within arms reach of the rv next to us.

TravelerFort Parker State Park Campground
Long Weekend Trip to Fort Parker State Park, Texas
Had a great time at Fort Parker State Park. The campground was quiet and well maintained. Our site was level, had great shade, and had both 30 amp service and water but no septic. There was a dump station between the campground and the ranger station. The staff was friendly and informative. The bathroom and shower facilities were clean. There were very few biting insects to contend with. Trails were in good condition and the kayak rental was easy. The number of birds on the Navasota River trail was truly astounding. Be careful if the wind is supposed to pick up during the time you intend to paddle if renting from the day use area next to the campground. The lake is very shallow in some areas and can get quite choppy. If you only want to paddle the river, there is a kayak ATM about a quarter mile from the spot where the river runs into the lake and you can get there by vehicle or trail. We had a nice stay despite the heat. Definitely worth a visit.

Excellent facilities and Staff
I have been staying at Hidden Creek RV in Bryan, Texas, during football season for numerous years, and it is always a great experience. The staff is consistently friendly, and the park is equipped with all the amenities you could need. I love how clean the grounds are and that there is plenty of room to walk the dogs. The location is perfect for an easy drive around the College Station and Bryan area. Additionally, they stay in constant communication prior to arrival, making the entire process seamless. Highly recommended!

Tradinghouse Lake Park Camping
Quiet and free
I stayed one night and felt safe. There are vault toilets, but not close to where I camped, so it’s probably best to be self contained. There are covered picnic tables and trash cans at each site.

Lake Bryan Campground
NO SHOWERS!!
Had booked 8 days to visit with a friend and meet up with my daughter. What a nightmare!! I had called ahead of time to see if they had showers, as I did not see one on the map. The person that answered and assured me that they had showers. I have a self contained, but it was an extra $15/night for water in addition to electric. Anyways, they ONLY have one outside 'rinsing' shower, at the restaurant... There was about 1000 people there, the day I arrived. It was opening day, and it is a college town. The issue is that there was no patrol of the grounds and things were pretty wild. The management even admitted that "we were taken by surprise"... well, from all the people I talked to, this is the norm for opening weekend. People were parked in the camping area and it made it difficult to get into my site. The bathrooms were DISGUSTING! I only ended up staying 4 days and the bathrooms STILL had dirty toilet paper littering them... same paper... I complained about them. I saw what appeared to be the manager go check out the bathrooms, then the park host; not long after I lodged my complaint.. but 3 more days, and the bathrooms had not been touched. The garbage had not been emptied... people there with dogs not on leashes, pooping and not being cleaned up. They have no-one patrolling the grounds. Quiet time is from 10pm-6am but the restaurant had a VERY loud band playing until midnight... so much for rules and quiet time! The ONLY good thing is that they did allow me to check out and refund my money without having a cancellation fee.
If you are looking for clean, family friendly and quiet,,, this is NOT the place to go.
