This is one of our favorite State Parks. Sites are very large with plenty of space between campsites. We stayed in site #98, had to level one side of the trailer about 3 inches. Most sites have some shade, but trees and utilities are not extremely close so slide outs are not a problem. The park has several hiking trails and lighted fishing piers. There are two sides to this park for camping, both are very nice and well kept. The park host in each camping loop has firewood you can purchase; they also keep the loops very clean between campers. Canoe rentals are available in the park, and the nature center had a snake exhibition on Saturday. The closest Walmart is about 11 miles away, but there is an Exxonmobile within a few miles with diesel and a small store. This park is a "10" in our opinion despite the lack of sewer connections. Also, the fall colors are beginning to change; should be really nice from mid-November for a couple of weeks. We will be returning to this park.

Absolutely love this park! By far the best RV resort in Canton for First Monday or anytime. My mother and I stayed here for 4 nights and felt safe at all times since the park is gated and patrolled by the staff. Check in was a breeze and we were escorted to our pull-through site and assisted with unhooking the trailer and setting up the camper by the gentleman on duty. We could have managed just fine being well-seasoned campers but he was a true gentleman and was insistent on helping us. Cable, full hook-ups and very clean bathhouses and restrooms are standard with all completely level sites and on Saturday nights the park host a BBQ for all guest. The catch and release fishing pond also has paddle boats free of charge with adult supervision if the kids want to take a spin and all the swimming pools are immaculate and beautiful to relax and unwind by. A free shuttle service runs every hour to the First Monday pavilions for those who would rather not drive and pay to park. We will always be guest of this resort as long as the management keeps the standards high and the rates reasonable (and you don't have to join some association or purchase a membership).

The river front site we stayed in was level, with concrete and gravel and quite a bit of room; but this campground is rather expensive for what they don't offer. To be fair: it is the nicest campground on River Road, so I guess that is what you are paying for. The staff is very friendly and keeps the campground clean, cruising around daily picking up after those campers who don't pick up after themselves. We enjoyed the river, but several people thought they could use our site to cut through to the river, even though they had paid less for their sites because they were second row. This was a bit of an issue and the staff did not enforce using the public access area for those campers. Also, quite time rules were not enforced: the campsite next to us was loud and drunk late into the night for the 3 nights they were here. It would be nice if the policies of the campground were enforced: I would have given a better rating. We may consider this campground again.

This is the only park on Galveston Island we come to on a regular basis. It is very well maintained by very sweet people who go out of their way to accommodate each guest. The only reason I do not rate this park as a 10 is because of the long term residents presently staying in the park. Otherwise, the amenities are great, the facilities are all very clean, and the location to the beach is wonderful. The sites are all level with plenty of patio spacing between rigs. Breakfast is provided on Wednesday and Saturday until 9:30am, and movies are planned on the weekend evenings for families. We will return time and again.

A Texas Jewel! We loved this park. Our site was right on the lake, literally, what a view! We fished off the bulkhead and caught catfish and perch all weekend under a beautiful moon right behind our trailer. All sites appeared well maintained and ours did not require any leveling. The kids enjoyed the putt putt, swim beach and snowcones (sold at the park store). This park is very close to town and other marinas for any supplies or bait that you can't get at the park store. The bathrooms were clean, but could use some updating. There are no trails, but this campground has paved roads that are nice for biking or walking. We will return again this year.

Very nice family park to visit for a weekend trip. The rate reflects the nightly rate plus the daily rate of $7 per person in your campsite (we had 5 people in our site). The park is well maintained and the staff is very friendly and really helps watch after the kids. We enjoyed the swimming area and the planned activities. Most sites required some leveling and the hook-ups were easy to access. We will camp here again.

The park is extremely well kept and everyone is very courteous. There is a clubhouse with a small library, billards room, kitchen, and shower facilities. They seem to cater to a more adult/full timer community, which is fine, but we had children and there were few other children for them to play with during our stay. The creek is beautiful, but the beach area and access is limited and the fishing is catch and release only. The sites were nice and level, with room for your slideouts and still plenty of room for a porch area. We also enjoyed watching the deer graze each day in the pecan grove. We had a very peaceful stay and would recommend this park.

There is still a lot of clean-up going on in the aftermath of Ike so be prepared to possibly stay in a site with several downed trees. Nonetheless, this park is still great for families with large sites and full hookups in some loops. We personally like the sites overlooking the lake when we can get one, sites can be reserved but you have to get there early to get one right on the lake (otherwise your right across the street with a nice view still). This park has guided horse rides for $25 per person and a nice marina, too. You can rent a boat or chill out fishing from concreted bulkheads. We have spent the last two weekends here and plan to return for the third weekend in a row.

A great state park with quick and easy access to the city amenities. Canoe rentals are located nearby and you can take a short or long trip or an overnight trip with the outfitters. There are plenty of trails to take long walks and most sites are nice and spacious. It is a smaller park but great for a weekend get-a-way or a longer stay if you are a full timer. We will return again in the summer and enjoy swimming at the beach area.

The kids thoroughly enjoyed this park and so did the adults. We stayed in site 148 and it was shady and spacious. It is not on a river or a lake, but there are lots of outdoor recreations available to keep the kids busy all day. During the evening on Friday and Saturdays The English Brothers have a Canyon Trail Chuck Wagon show at an indoor facility and the music is wonderful. The dinner was delicious! This was the highlight of our stay and we will return to visit again next year. We stayed here in a travel trailer.

Awesome park! There are several miles of walking and mountain biking trails. Also a small 23 acre lake with catfish and bass with many fishing piers and benches for just enjoying the view. The sites are huge and most accommodating just about any size camper with multiple slides. The park is very clean and well maintained and the staff is very helpful and friendly. We will return many times a year. This park is a jewel.

We stayed here for First Monday. The park staff was very helpful and friendly. In our opinion, this is by far the nicest campground in Canton. It within two miles of First Monday and the campground even offers a shuttle. We stayed in site 63 overlooking a small stocked, catch and release fishing pond. The sites have large, level concrete pads and are roomy enough. There are walking trails and some activities for kids. The facilities were all very well maintained. We camped here in a travel trailer.

Our entire family thoroughly enjoyed this park. It is in between Luling and San Marcos without too much around except Mother Nature. The river was perfect for floating with several river outfitters to shuttle you if needed, but you have to rent their tubes. We decided to shuttle ourselves back and forth from a bridge up the road (since we brought our own tubes) with a nice familiy a few sites down. Free is always great! The park has a swimming pool, volleyball court and several other activities for families. The staff was helpful and friendly. Our site was level, but several sites down near the river area would require leveling. The water pressure was good, even in a packed park. Sites are close together but we enjoyed our neighbors on both sides of our rig. We will be back again in summer 2009 to experience some R&R away from it all.

We have stayed here twice. We returned most recently while running from Hurricane Ike. The staff welcomed our family back and helped us find a generator to take back home (a rare find at the time). We stayed in site #44 this time. Most sites are very nice with full hookups and some shade. The main attraction is the Frio River which is easily accessed within the campground. The security patrols maintain the family atmosphere, taking care to remove any disruptive, rowdy folks. The store has provisions for those items you forgot and a shuttle service is provided for a float down the Frio. We camped here in a travel trailer.

This is a great park for families. The beach is directly across the street with easy drive on access. There is a pool, hot tub and splash pad when you've had enough sand and salt water. They have outdoor movies on Friday and Saturday nights and delicious homemade breakfast waffles on the weekends. The hosts are wonderful; and their son is real sweet too. The sites are roomy and maintained. The bathrooms are always immaculate and the game room is an added bonus. We love returning to this park time and again.
