Perfect little hide away

We biked here in an hour or so from Houston. Beautiful little lake , relaxing hiking and clean sites. It’s first come first serve and there was no one here. Quite a bit of wildlife and pretty good fishing. If your looking for a day trip it’s perfect!

Awesome little slip of paradise.

Deep in the woods and on a nice shallow lake. Fantastic for walks around the lake, playing in the park, and fun trails. Camp grounds are spacious and we'll thought out. Will definitely return, as it was only an hour from Houston!

Cheap, easy, fun!

Quick place to hop in and set up your tent if you’re out trailriding in the forest! 24 hour first come, first serve campsites, but I think you can also reserve spots on their website! It sits on a body of water with dropoff points for small boats! This is usually where I go!
