Campsites are a little close together, but well equipped otherwise. Went for The water park, which is a blast, and campsites are within easy walking distance. There are a ton of other activities as well - putt-putt, laser tag, paddle boats, fishing, etc. also had curbside trash pickup which was nice.
Would have been nice if there were some incentives for the water park for campers - early entrance, or discount, but that would be the only thing I would add.
We have been coming to Neal’s for years, but have always stayed in their cabins. We had a change of plans for a trip (thank you Hurricane Beryl) and were lucky enough to get in at Neal’s. Had an amazing time, and changed our upcoming cabin reservation to an RV site!
We’ve been coming to Garner for over 25 years. Tent camped, stayed in the screened shelters, and recently RVed, but this is the first time I’ve stayed in this camp ground. I like that it is in “Old Garner”, so it is close to more of the trails, the main swimming area, the store, etc. but it is far enough away to be free of the noise and other activities that go with Old Garner. I’ve stayed in Okd Garner in the winter because it isn’t so busy and things are more chill (pardon the pun) but stayed in New Garner in the Summer to avoid the noise. Here I get the best of both - and this site has Full Hookups (look for the Pull thrus, as not all have full hookups). In short, this can’t be beat. I’m the only draw back is the sites are narrower (at least the pull thrus are) and the picnic tables are not covered. Not enough to even shave a little off the 5th Star, but that is my only complaint.
Great park if you want to get outside, but still want access to civilization.
Park is somewhat of a mix between wetland and forest. While this is an awesome ecosystem with lots to see and explore - take bug spray! Especially if going in May - when the Horseflies are out. We made the mistake of forgoing the Off and got eaten alive. This is our fault, and not the parks, though.
The park is conveniently located just outside of Beaumont. In fact, you may feel like you haven’t left the city until you are there. This can be helpful if you want to grab a bite and not cook, or if you run short of supplies. I would recommend this park especially for someone new to camping.
Great sites of all sizes. Scenic road that is popular with cyclists connecting Bastrop State Park. Wildflowers were in full bloom, and the small lake is great for fishing. Nice, well maintained trails and Park Rangers were very helpful and courteous.
Stayed here as part of my son’s birthday, and had a great time. Stunned at all the activities and the people were all super helpful. Can’t wait to come back!
Great park close to Houston. Spectacular sunset views, super friendly host. Limited trails is only con, but even they are nice once you venture out. Video attached of short portion of trail. Full hookups for $34 a night is hard to beat!
