I drove up hill to almost the end of campground. The view was amazing and it was so peaceful. I liked being able to take hot showers in private locked rooms per shower. No power hook up but had water access. There is boat dock. I was only person there the 2 days I stayed. Walked the entire campground. Many spots available in shadded trees. I picked one with views but when it's hotter will certainly stay in more shadded spots. Prices in photos

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Roaxana Poskey · Nov 2017

Great potential if Sabine River Authority (SRA) provides proper maintenance and if there was some patrol and enforcement of the camp rules. ‎It's difficult to understand what agency is responsible for keeping the facility safe and enforcing the camp regulations because it is a US Forest Service (USDA National Forest) property but it is maintained by SRA. Very little is given about this campground online so I will hopefully be able to help until the SRA and National Forest sites include more relevant information. PROS: campground and individual campsite layouts are functional, location is remote- no highway noise and no city noises. Four restroom facilities, three have cold showers. Campground trash disposal sites are maintained-fresh garbage bags and frequent trash service. Potable water i

My favorite place in the world. I've been camping and swimming here all my life. I was so sad when the tornadoes damaged it and shut it down. I was super worried that they would never reopen it, but to my delight and surprise, they did. I'll be happy to see it fully repaired and the trees growing back to how they were. It's still a beautiful place dear to my heart.

This is a great recreation site that is Forest Service owned and they have SRA as concessionaires. This was a great time and many opportunities for fishing and hiking around the rec area with the dog. Give this place a visit if you’re in the area.

Nice camping area, a small amount of traffic, couple of long term campers, but clean.
