I
arrived
Friday
evening
and
stayed
through
Sunday
morning
at
campsite
29
in
the
tent
camping
section.
I
found
the
site
easily
and
while
setting
up
I
noticed
most,
if
not
all
the
campsites
were
shaded,
which
was
a
blessing
because
it
was
almost
100
degrees
this
weekend.
I
liked
that
each
campsite
had
a
good
amount
of
space
because
just
about
every
space
was
reserved
for
the
weekend.
Friday
I
hiked
around
the
lake
on
the
Oxbow
trail,
which
is
about
3/4
mile
and
it
was
really
pretty,
easy
to
navigate,
and
easy
to
walk.
On
Saturday,
I
headed
out
to
hike
the
other
trails.
It
was
really
hot
but
thankfully
the
trails
offered
a
lot
of
shade.
When
I
got
back
from
my
hike
I
was
drenched
in
sweat
despite
it
being
an
easy
hike
and
only
about
3.2
miles.
I
was
a
bit
confused
about
where
to
go
swimming
because
I
saw
on
the
park
signs
to
only
swim
in
designated
areas,
but
didn't
see
any
signs
that
said
designated
swimming
area
so
I
was
just
hoping
to
see
other
people.
Idk
if
the
river
was
just
really
low
at
this
time,
but
there
wasn't
really
any
spot
to
"swim"
in
the
river
as
it
was
only
about
knee
deep.
None-the-less,
I
got
in
and
laid
down
because
it
felt
great.
The
water
was
clean
and
warm
(but
not
too
warm!).
I
brought
a
paddleboard,
which
I
took
up
to
the
Oxbow
lake
by
the
campsite
and
got
in
the
water
there
as
well.
There's
not
a
clear
area
to
put
your
board
in
or
to
walk
in
for
swimming,
you
just
kind
of
have
to
climb
down
the
ladder
on
the
dock
and
see
if
it's
deep
enough
for
swimming
which
was
kind
of
odd.
The
lake
though,
was
big
enough
for
the
people
on
it
to
be
kayaking,
paddle
boarding,
and
swimming
without
being
on
top
of
one
another.
My
biggest
complaint
of
my
visit
was
the
restrooms/shower.
The
restrooms
were
run
down,
and
unfortunately,
the
women's
restroom
looked
like
one
of
the
toilets
overflowed
and
there
was
still
water
and
toilet
paper
all
over
the
floor.
The
showers
were
only
in
the
RV
section
of
the
park,
which
was
a
LONG
walk
from
tent
camping
section,
which
doesn't
make
much
sense
to
me
as
most
RVers
have
shower
options
and
tent
campers
do
not
so
that
was
odd.
There
was
also
only
2
women's
shower
stall
for
the
entire
park
and
one
was
out
of
order.
The
shower
stall
didn't
have
a
bench
to
set
your
things
on
while
showering,
it
looked
like
there
used
to
be
one
but
it
was
broken,
but
the
water
pressure
and
water
temperature
were
wonderful.
Although
I
saw
a
lot
of
wildlife
(2
armadillos,
1
white
tailed
deer,
1
snake,
multiple
squirrels
&
lizards),
the
trails
were
well
maintained,
and
the
palmettos
were
pretty,
I'd
probably
put
this
near
the
bottom
of
my
Texas
state
parks
list.
That
being
said,
it's
very
family-friendly!
If
I
had
children,
I
think
my
opinion
would
change
quite
a
bit
because
there
is
a
great
playground,
plenty
of
space
for
kids
to
play
and
it
had
a
very
family-friendly
feel.
