"By far one of my favorite state parks in Texas"
"There are water spigots scattered through the park and a flush toilet nearby. Not very many sites though, so arrive early as they’re not reservable."
ScoutI found this small camping site and it’s small but has good sites and nice lake view. Can sit by lake and have covered picnic tables. The camp sites are not covered but has enough tree coverage to make it shaded and I had pretty good wind to stay cool in the 93 degree heat. Has tent camping, and two RV slots and one truck stop which I used, it did need mowed when I was there but it was not to bad great view of the dam,
TravelerWe were looking for a simple place to stop overnight after driving all day toward Brownsville. One phone call and everything was handled by Emily - she even met us right at the gate and guided us to our spot. Sites are level, wide, and even shaded. We arrived around 9pm and departed 10 hours later - so level we didn’t even have to unhook. Very reasonable $55 for full hookups and a convenient place to spend the night.
GuideWhen you get to the paved parking lot, take the gate yo the right and follow the road. It does get rough, so be prepared.
ScoutThe park is quiet and clean. The bathhouse is exceptionally clean. The camper pads are level.
ScoutWe loved the trees and nice wide slips. Nice not to be within 5 feet from your neighbor. Restrooms nice and clean. Appreciate the friendly management. We felt very welcome. We would look forward to staying there again and we recommend it to other travelers!
GuideGood experience. Near Ennis, TX. Convenience stores, etc 4-6 miles away. Covered picnic table. Large combined family (private) restroom / shower. (Regular restrooms were closed / locked during my visit - Monday night; May 27.) Not many people. Campsite # 25 faces Lake Bardwell.

GuideEasy to get here, This place has pull through sites, full hookups, dump and water available. Big rig friendly, made the reservation online, it's not free but needed some electricity to survive thr texas heat. There's a creek closed by and fishing available for guests.
