    For those tent camping there are tons of places to set up. Many right in the pond. If you do not enjoy camping close to others, this site offers several spots that keep you feeling secluded. For those with campers, there are a few spots with gravel parking but they tend to go fast. There are two lumber drop off point here. If you plan to utilize these you might want to bring a chainsaw to help make the pieces manageable. The pond the site is on is really good. I have caught bass of good size here as well as great numbers and size of bluegill. While I have seen cat fish in here, not sure how strong the population is and don't often see people fishing for them. Update: The lumber drop offs have been stopped.

    Stayed at this campground for a weekend. This is primitive camping so make sure to bring your own drinking water & don't have high expectations of the bathroom facilities. This is a free campground after all. There were A LOT of mosquitos that seemed to be resistant to our bug spray so that wasn't great but it is close to a pond and bugs are to be expected. Some sites are better than others but if you get there early enough in the day, you'll be able to find one. The ranger drove through once the entire weekend just to make sure everything was running smoothly. The fishing is good. We didn't see any ticks. You should know that the firepits don't have grates on them, so if you're planning on doing campfire cooking - bring your own! Overall, a very good campground for the price (FREE!). Doesn't get much better than that.

    Good free camp ground, no electricity or running water but there is a pump for a well. Nights were a. Bit noisy with the sound of hunting dogs in the woods across the lake.

    We stayed at campground K, lots of room for our fur babies and very quiet location! No complaints other that bugs were horrible, and the bathrooms well let's just say I'd rather go in the woods!!!

    I love the quiet and the wildlife is great. The lake is so clear you can see the fish. I saw a cat fish 4 -5 foot long from the bank. I can't wait to return.

    We only visited for the day to do some fishing. The lake is beautiful and the campground was quiet and clean. They have several campsites available right on the lake for those who choose to do that. We had a great day at the lake and will be going back to camp.

    I've been going to this campground, which there are multiple campgrounds that are part of this, for about 40 ears. It's always been my favorite. And it's free, BUT... In 2020 what campsite was burglarized while I was away fishing within walking distance. The problem is this : because it's a free campground, occasionally homeless people will come here and stay they rummage campsites, this is a fairly new problem. Becareful and enjoy. It's still a wonderful place but be cautious and vigilant. This campground isn't ideal for inexperienced campers or " glampers". 😂

For people, they have a small selection of chips, candy, and cold drinks. They also have some souvenir t-shirts for sale, and some cool Lake McMurtry sticker...
