Leftover sponge from 2002

If I could give it a NEGATIVE 5 as a review, I would! One word to describe this campsite and facilities....NASTY!!!!!! We stayed in the cabins for $80 a night with a 3 night minimum! With taxes, etc. it was $270+. The cabins were absolutely disgusting! I expected them to be "bare bones" and we brought everything we needed (they don't supply anything other than 2 beds, mini refrigerator (thought they don't tell you it is "mini" in any advertisement or when you call to inquire), 2 unit hot plate, 2 small trash cans, shower curtain, table/chairs set, TV and window unit AC (which does work, but as expected, was very loud...can't watch TV with the AC on or you'll blow out your ear drums!!). Again...we expected PLAIN!! THAT was not the issue! It was filthy, old and in horrible shape. Between the dead bugs, the broken faucets, the stained bedspreads (well...the stained EVERYTHING!!), the cigarette burn marks in our NO SMOKING cabin, the mold, the rust, etc...I could go on and on...but as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words!!! I took a bunch and used no filters other than occasion flash! Enjoy!!! Oh...and to top it off...NO ONE inside the marina and store wore a mask! When my fiancé wore his a very large man started screaming in his face, "TRUMP!!! TRUMP!!! TRUMP!!!!" He wasn't doing anything other than wearing a mask during an epidemic. (There was no political attire on at all!)

We really like this place! Friendly staff and so fun for my kids.  They even showed us how to fish, etc. Highly recommended

See all

Always a fun time to be had! We usually come on weekdays to avoid the crowd and have the place to ourselves for the most part.

Did not honor our reservation, but rather overbooked for a bachelor party and did not inform us until we arrived. Grave lack of integrity!

I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From booking in July, to picking up the rental in…read moreSeptember of 2026, everything was perfect. Everyone was friendly and professional. The pontoon boat we rented was in exceptional shape and we had a fantastic time. It was a great way to end a 3 week, 4,000 mile road trip!!

I do not recommend this place at all if you care about your safely and the safety of your children…read more They violated multiple consumer and safety laws. I reached out ten days ago and I still have not heard anything back. Not only they overcharged me due to their inadequate service, but they also did not give me the discount they had promised due to not being able to hold up their end of the contract by switching tritoons last minute and giving me an old unsafe one. Violation of laws: Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (Texas Business & Commerce Code § 17.46): Misrepresentation of the tritoon's capabilities, forcing me to sign for a boat I never received, false promise of a discount, and improper billing. * Texas Parks & Wildlife Code § 31.111: Failure to disclose operational characteristics (speed limits, disabled switch, inoperable speedometer, nonfunctional lights). * Texas Parks & Wildlife Code § 31.064: Operating without required navigation lights after sunset. Also: Failure to Provide Timely Assistance (Unreasonable Risk to Passengers) * During the trip, the tow rope became tangled in the propeller. I called the marina at 6:25 PM for assistance. * I was told to use the disabled trim switch (which they knew did not work since they admitted to disabling it on all boats) * I called again at 6:55 PM and 7:05 PM, reporting that we were drifting in shallow water. * Assistance did not arrive until ~7:20 PM, the exact time my rental was scheduled to end. * We were finally freed at ~7:40 PM, leaving us exhausted, stranded, and unsafe for over an hour. Leaving a family stranded in shallow water -- after knowingly providing a tritoon with disabled controls and no speedometer -- constitutes a serious lapse in boating safety obligations.

We were on one the smaller loops. Was a lot quieter than the other ones LOL the swim area was full of boats by the afternoon. The trails are marked, when you drive in and go toward the swim area, you'll see the brown sign at the entrance along the right. We drove around and checked out all the sites, they have quite a few that can accommodate large RVs along with extra parking for a boat. If you pull up the satellite view on Recreation.gov you'll be able to view the spot numbers and layout that way. Perfect for sunset pictures! Seems a lot cleaner than past pictures. Read online that is was part of the push of why they stopped allowing day passes. COEs on the lake are only for camping reservations, which is great bc it was pretty busy, cam only imagine how crowded it would be if it was open to public as well.

We camped here during Hurricane Laura 2020, we had a great time! We had site 83 which was on the…read moreend, there was no trees and huge rock piles next to the camp that was an eye sore! Other then the fire ants and mud daubers everywhere lol the site was ok. A small walk to the shore to swim. Very quiet lake and they had a bunch of deers laying around ! Super cute and relaxing. If I could I give this place a 3 1/2 stars ... there's not much to do unless you bring your boat

So we showed up today a casual 10 minutes late. I'm always stressed about being late and they were very cool with it which immediately relaxed me. I think the marina itself could use more signage as we didn't see where to go to check in and had to be directed by someone else on the dock. We find our way, one of the employees said she was going to check that our bobcat was working (really appreciate that, always want to know it works) and we checked in inside. Without prompting, they recommend some cool areas of the lake to check out. This was excellent and I loved it. Zach was driving, so I was thriving, and they had wine on sale for 20% off, so they twisted my arm and I ended up with some delicious, cheap, plastic, single-serving bottles of wine. They were very patient with my nerves as we got loaded onto the boat and I tried not to lose all of my items. I really misinterpreted the size of the boat and, as I always do, overpacked. We did not need towels, we did not really need ... anything .... except maybe the wine. They gave us a great overview of how to steer the bobcat, cuz it was a little different than what we are used to with big boy boats, and we were off! We had a great time, we made it back alive, we signed a paper saying we were alive and had returned their bobcat, and they surprised us by saying bobcat rentals no longer have to pay for gas. We did not argue and hippity hopped it out of there. They made it so easy, the price is reasonable, they seem to have pretty open availability, and you can rent by the 1/2 hour. I can see us having a date night where we grab some dinner at Deadfish and then take a bobcat out for an hour to watch the sunset from the lake. This is my life now? No complaints.

Having erroneously double-booked our reservation, the owner of the Marina, Jim, personally came into the office on Sunday to handle the dilemma with us. We were obviously upset with the news that despite having a reservation, we were no longer going to be able to rent a boat, but Jim presented us with three options to remedy the snafu. Having traveled out of town for the holiday weekend, we were determined to get on the water, so we accepted his offer to take us out on his personal cabin cruiser for the day. He did everything he could to accommodate us....from making sure we had plenty of drinks to making sure to show us the sights on the lake. This is how a business should be ran.....Jim and his staff did an amazing job at keeping the customer happy.....5 stars+ !!! Thank you for the amazing day, Jim!
