"4.5 total miles of trails and none of it difficult. You can't take a baby stroller but obey because of a few branches, it's all easy hiking."
"One morning, as I was sitting drinking my coffee, four deer walked right through our site!! We had a regular nighttime visit from some bold raccoons, so definitely put your goodies and trash away."

LegendWe have a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed in site 25 for 1 night in early September. The CG is clean, well maintained. The CG roads are paved, as are the sites. The site pads themselves are concrete and most looked to be fairly level, but a few had a bit of slope. Most of the sites were fairly well spaced. The CG, at least on Sunday evening, was very quiet and peaceful. There were only 2 other campers while we were there, one of them the Park Host. Our site, 25, was a pull-through, but the center of it had about 4 inches of mud from a recent rain, otherwise it would just be 4 inches of dirt. A few of the back-in sites had similar situations at the junction with the road.
AT&T coverage was pitiful, with only 1 bar of LTE service and speeds up to 0.1 MB/s. We had a clear view to the N from the side of the site, so Starlink was fine with speeds up to 16 MB/s.
TravelerTyler State Park is a pretty park. There are a number of hiking trails, but we were only there overnight. The lake and beach look lovely. Most of the camp sites look nice with water and electric. The bath house is clean with hot showers, but could use some paint and TLC. Sites 13, 14, and 15 were very nice especially if tent camping.
GuideMe and my partner posted up there on a Thursday evening. There wasn’t another group at the actual campsite that we could see. Despite being ostensibly alone, I do believe there is a few Lakeside properties or perhaps a neighborhood nearby because there were boats going back-and-forth across the water at all hours of the night And several dogs barking to no end.
When we departed in the morning, it took a moment to take a look at the other campsites, many of which had fire pits filled with trash. This could just be a one off, cause we did go, maybe a week or so, after the Fourth of July but there’s also a real possibility that this is a pretty normal party stomping ground. Either way the surrounding area was beautiful and when everything quieted down in the morning, it was incredibly peaceful.
TravelerStayed for a two day stay. Spots are small for parking but are for the camp site was appropriate. Plenty of things to do. If you like fishing plenty of options for all ages. Nice fishing pier. Cool by the lake.
GuideDecent camp area right by the water in a park. I wouldn’t say it’s secluded, but it’s quiet and there is enough space per site to pitch a tent and enjoy your time. I was the only person camping here when I went in January. There is a bit of light from nearby buildings/houses, but not bad. In all, it was sufficient for an overnight stop, but I wouldn’t necessarily want to stay for longer than that.
TravelerAwesome campground. Tall trees, wildlife. Beautiful lake. Rolling hills.
TravelerGreat campground Full Hookups Super quite. Small lake with paddle boats and canoes.
TravelerWe got here at about 3 pm on Friday and were greeted by a security guard who after getting our wristbands for the weekend escorted us to our site. They really didn’t tell us anything about the place other than the gym code and to wear our wristbands the entire weekend.
The site was clean. You will need to do some leveling. Another thing, make sure you bring a lot of sewer hose! We had our 20ft and had to go to Walmart to get an extension, they put it nearly at the front of the site! There are no trees and it is straight sun almost all day. They list that they do trash pick up at 9 and 5, you put it tied up on the gravel area on your site, but I guess with it being a holiday weekend they came by more often. There is a clean large bathhouse with showers and laundry right near a playground, basketball court, pickleball court and two dog runs. There is no fire pits, so make sure you bring a self contained one (solo stove or similar,) or they have them for rent in the office. They also have golf carts for rent which if you’re at one of the back sites you may want one!
The pool and lazy river was nice, crowded at times but that is to be expected during a busy holiday. There isn’t a lot of seating or shade. I did see people bring camp chairs and just setting up where they could. They do have cabanas for rent, and for this weekend they were $130/day. One downside is the don’t allow outside food or drinks, which I get that they don’t want people bring in alcohol, but it would have been nice to have our own bottles of water with it being over 90 degrees. They do have a cooler with tiny styrofoam cups that they did keep filled. Our son did the WiBit inflatable obstacle course and LOVED it. It was an extra charge though, which I thought was kind of ridiculous and should absolutely be included in your stay.
They had a bunch of activities for the holiday weekend which were fun! Duck races on two days (extra fee cash only and the only thing they take cash for), firework show (very good and free,) bingo, chalk contest, find the flags, etc!
The report is a little pricey but all in all it was really a fun weekend! I will say, come ready to spend money!
GuideBeautiful lake and campground. Mostly level camping spots. Breezy during the day and calm at night. Can only stay for 7 days, not 14. Has lots of trees as well for hammocks.
