Only complaint is the restroom. It's disgusting. The park is nice. Good scenery. Relaxed.

We drove from Houston to watch the 2024 eclipse and were very impressed with this park. It is a great place for a family outing. There are restrooms, covered picnic tables, and the shoreline is all small pebbles (excellent for children to play). Also, the staff (rangers and local police) we met at the park were great. The county has done a really good job here!

Parks are nice and cleaned, and very well maintained. Lake is in desperate need to be restocked. Have caught freshwater eels, on worm, and caught freshwater crabs in sain.

It's a public lake with lots of different fishing and camping areas to choose from. There are a couple of boat docks.
