What campers like

What you should know
Water level fluctuations: Lake water levels can impact activities and access. "The lake is sometimes completely dry, but when there is water, it is quite expansive. It's secluded due to being a large lake," explains Andrea F.
Site conditions: Mustang Hollow Campground offers cabin rentals but campers should be prepared for varied site conditions. "Sites are small, dirt and uneven. Pictures show a playground, dog park, etc., however, none of these things exist. It looks like they did at one point, but not in the last decade," mentions Nick & Allyssa S.
Reservation requirements: Many cabin properties require advance booking with varied payment policies. "This was the perfect place to stay in proximity of our son's house. Nice, clean campground with bay views, great sunrise and sunset. The only negative is you have to prepay your stay 10 days in advance," reports Cindy S. about Firefly Coastal Bend.
