Arrived on a Friday evening and had to wait in line to get my permit even though I already paid. Next time, I will pre-register and print my own permit (I think that’s an option).
I hiked a couple trails. The intersections were not clearly marked and I ended up veering off from my intended route. It was a full park but I didn’t feel on top of anyone. The park buildings are very cute and love CCC projects.
Walking around, I really liked sites in 8-12 and along that stretch. 54, 57, 58, 59, 62 are good alternatives.
I’ve stayed here lots of times in tent sites, RV sites, and the cabins. I like them all and especially love the hikes and swimming.
Love the park. The spots by the river are shaded and great. Saw armadillos! Enjoyed the trails. But we had a heavy rain storm and we were at the bottom of a hill so the water flowed in a path right through our site and our tent literally floated. But then it dried up and was fine.
Our first night was at a site very near the neighboring sites. It wasn’t very private or peaceful. The next morning we asked to move. Around the corner, I think the sites were 25-29, they were better spaced very wooded. We could hear folks down the hill being loud all night since it was kind of echo-y, but was able to mostly ignore it.
