Kimball Bend Park

We spent 4 nights at this campground on the Brazos River and we hope to go back.  Some of the campsites close to the river have no shade, but others have shade from some large old pecan trees.  There are remnants of the old ghost town, Kimball on the property.  It was very nice and the fishing was good.  The only cell service available we were told, is AT&amp;T.

Very nice COE Campground on the Brazos River

All the sites have a view of the Brazos River. It’s not a big park but, it’s nice. The bathroom/shower needs improvement. Only one stall/one shower; poor lighting and mirror is horrible. The ruins on site are nice; lots of history here. There’s a trail across the road but, we could only go about 2 miles - rest was really overgrown and you could hear hunters shooting close by.
