Beautiful campground with nice clean restrooms.

@MichaelS838841 · Camped on Nov 1, 2024 at Campsite #27

The site was quiet and relaxing even with a light rain shower occuring. The main loop trail around the campsite was sufficent for us who was there for the weekend. The shower on site was good though the push button took a bit getting used to. Verizon had spotty coverage but when it did connect it was enough for email, calls and texts alongside low quality video streaming.

Our site was a little too sunny for us but all in all it was a good site. We like to walk the trail between the loops but due to how unlevel it is we had to walk in the road. Cagle is a great park.

Very quiet and peaceful setting, lots of shade, close to the water, close to New Waverly or Willis if you need supplies or a good hamburger!

Some pin head parked his horse trailer in my spot. Went riding for hours. Dropped Horse $hit on my site. Should have been arrested for trespassing and dropping biohazard on my site. I know if I dropped black water there I would be banned.

@HelenC7569500 · Camped on Sep 10, 2024 at Campsite #15

The park is beautiful and well maintained. We have always enjoyed staying at Cagle.

@MichaelC616917 · Camped on Aug 30, 2024 at Campsite #30

Very clean! Very pretty! Lee the camp host was visible but respectful. We will absolutely be there again very soon!

@BettyL5624191 · Camped on Aug 21, 2024 at Campsite #34

We love to camp at Cagle. The park is kept clean. It is a short distance to get to bank to fish. We had sewer, which is a real plus.

@ThomasH6812009 · Camped on Aug 15, 2024 at Campsite #3

Get quiet getaway

@martinz1138EF5 · Camped on Aug 12, 2024 at Campsite #30

Very peaceful & quite during the week enjoyed having stores & some restaurants close. The host was very nice & attentive.

@PatrickH813255 · Camped on Aug 5, 2024 at Campsite #31

Great place, well maintained and the host on our loop was a great guy.

@LarryR5427320 · Camped on Aug 5, 2024 at Campsite #40

Only issue is your WIFI service should any one need to use cell phone to call for medical assistance/ambulance which is problem with elderly campers!!

@JoeM4444950 · Camped on Jun 29, 2024 at Campsite #38

Campground clean and well maintained. Host was very friendly.

@SusanG3849669 · Camped on Jun 28, 2024 at Campsite #34

Nice campsites, easy access to Lake Conroe, friendly caretaker.

@EllenR0A00F2D5 · Camped on Jun 17, 2024 at Campsite #42

Cons: Wasn't mowed until we had been there 3 days. A stray dog wandered the campgrounds daily. Pros: The bathrooms were clean and in good repair. It was quiet. The camp hosts were friendly and helpful.

@MichaelB697476 · Camped on Jun 16, 2024 at Campsite #33

Nice quiet park

@MichaelD829846 · Camped on Apr 23, 2024 at Campsite #32

Love it was excellent

@JamesW5759385 · Camped on Apr 21, 2024 at Campsite #19

Very pleased with camp grounds. Clean, quiet, and well kept. Wish there was better cell phone reception. Not fault of camp ground!

@PatrickK884942 · Camped on Apr 19, 2024 at Campsite #7

Park was very nice, but there was no phone service or internet at the park

@DavidT5110185 · Camped on Apr 18, 2024 at Campsite #35

The camp hosts was very cordial and helpful. They kept the sites and the bathrooms very clean. Would definitely come back again.

@PhilE214748924 · Camped on Apr 16, 2024 at Campsite #28

I thought this was supposed to be a survey of our trip, not a questionnaire about the website. I use the app on my phone and it works well.

@BarbaraR956587 · Camped on Apr 16, 2024 at Campsite #5

We have been coming to this park for many years and we find this park wonderful. We have large sites and the park is beautiful. The fishing is good and you could not have better hosts to take care of your problems, if you have any.My only complaint would be the turn in at the entrance of the park. The sign is hard to see if you are going West because of the afternoon sun.Also if it is raining or the weather is bad you cannot see the sign. The left turn into the park can be very dangerous because of the speeders behind you that do not see your left blinkers going. The sigb needs to be bigger or make a left turn lane. It sure would help. Thank you

@TaylorP6A4FC46 · Camped on Apr 14, 2024 at Campsite #29

We love Cagle recreation area, but our last visit was made less than enjoyable by the park host named Lee. He was constantly on 'patrol' threatening $150 fines for any tiny infraction. He was inspecting campsites multiple times a day, and entering campsites to clean firepits even when people were using them. We do not wish to come back there again when he is park commandant.

@KipM54824CBAD3 · Camped on Apr 14, 2024 at Campsite #42

Everything was clean and well maintained. The boat ramp was very convenient and the hosts and hostesses were polite and friendly. I will be returning.

@RonH1908399 · Camped on Apr 9, 2024 at Campsite #44

Camp sites are nice with decent space between them. Locations for water, power, sewer were set up well and were in good repair. Park is older, so "paved" trails are in a little rough shape. Holes, tree roots etc along with older wooden bridges that are in various stages of failing. Our loop had one bath/shower house. Kept clean, however, at the time we were there (4/2024), the June bugs were out in force and were laying dead all over the bathrooms and the sidewalks. Just nature and the lights around the bath. The staff cleaned up everyday. Just a lot every day. Found the camp hosts to be very nice/hospitable. They made sure we were all set up and I believe that they also take care of the bath/showers. Don't expect to find someone in the gate house. They no longer seem to staff it anymore. At least, we never saw anyone there during our two day stay, and there was a sign stating that the gate house wasn't staffed....I'd recommend them for sure and will be back if were in the area again!

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
