We had a great time celebrating our 56th Anniversary at Loefers Bend West site #48. The weather was perfect and we really enjoyed our stay! The campground and restrooms are very clean. The host was friendly and very helpful! The lake is absolutely beautiful!

The only negative was the amount of burrs in some of the grassy areas. They would get on your lower legs or all in the dogs hair. Otherwise the weekend was very good. Was disappointed over burn ban but park doesnt control that.

Our group site was taken and we were given sites without electric, and no refund.
@GeraldRFBC9B6B · Camped on Oct 11, 2024 at Campsite #W65
Beware if you try to stay at lofers Bend west. space #65, and all of the ones in that area are overgrown with grass burrs. So many that it was a horrible experience. We could not make the site work no matter what and gave up. I also tried to cancel the reservation but since it was at check in time (2 pm) it would not let me. Then I tried to cancel the second night, no it would not let me. In all I spent $65 dollars for nothing and made reservations at a private resort. I am really dissapointed in the US corp project. I also tried to call the phone number but no one was answering. The park host could not be found. Lesson learned, I will never stay there again.

The site we were add the road had washed out and was in bad need of repair. Due to this we had an issue using the camp site and caused damage to our camper and their picnic canopy and the park is filing a claim This park was a in need of roadway repair

We love loafers bend. We try to go there several times per year. This trip was a little disturbing. There was no one on the gate. This allows anyone to enter for any any reason.In the world that we live in, that is not a wise decision.
@MikeS6104174 · Camped on Sep 15, 2024 at Campsite #W62
Love the park and the wildlife but the grass was extremely high and full of stickers there's no gate attendants there for people are free to go in and out of the park as they please! Did not have anything come up missing but felt very insecure about leaving without locking everything up! The rest rooms were clean but the covered picnic table were spider and ant infested.Definitely not close to what I expected or have experienced in the past.I hope that the feedback will help with making much needed improvements!

Pretty campground with many gorgeous views of Lake Whitney. No host upon entry, so you are on your own. Very peaceful with an amazing breeze the whole time I was there. Boat ramp on site. Dump station and many dumpsters on site. Sites are mostly level. Some of the sites are pretty close together, so you don't get much privacy, and you kind of feel like you are on top of each other. It's very relaxing. However, there's not much to do in this area if you aren't doing water activities. For the most part, this campground is pretty maintained. The weeds could use some help, along with the low hanging trees and the random trash, but other than that, it's a nice campground.

Such a great camp site. Clean, camp sites are far enough away from each other. It was perfect! If u can go, go!
@SteveW7867249 · Camped on Sep 1, 2024 at Campsite #W07
Perfect camping. Everything was mowed and all went well. Did decide its worth bringing wasp spray. Second time Ive been here and couldnt get near picnic table as wasps build nests under the corrugated canopies over tables. Spacious sites, relatively quiet. People seemed to honor the quiet times posted. Nice place
@BrandonW160403 · Camped on Aug 23, 2024 at Campsite #W63
I love hanging out at the lake
@MelindaD188889 · Camped on Jul 18, 2024 at Campsite #W51
My husband, family, and I are frequent visitors to Lake Whitney and Lofers Bend West is one of our very favorite places to stay. Very well kept, clean, and great environment. Keep up the good work guys.
@JeremiahS50EB7 · Camped on Jul 17, 2024 at Campsite #W60
Great park and excellent camp host. My only suggestion would be to have a keypad gate to get in after 9 pm. Weve had this at some COE parks and it makes the stay even better.
@CarolynK9DE718 · Camped on Jul 11, 2024 at Campsite #W45
We had an excellent time. Camped with ease without any pressure.
@ToddL4603084 · Camped on Jul 11, 2024 at Campsite #W64
Trees need trimmed! All around the dump station limbs are too low and drag top of campers. Roads need repairs. Park needs cleaned!
@JoeC5097181 · Camped on Jun 26, 2024 at Campsite #W60
Need to moe got eat up my chiggers bad wont be back terrible place to go.
@jasonl2729902 · Camped on Jun 21, 2024 at Campsite #W49
No electricity at site. No one at gate. recreation.com states they cannot help you when you have a problem. Finally got in touch with a park ranger after driving around to find someone. park is knee high in grass. gate not being manned. gate left open at night and a lot of non campers driving thru. day use people squatting in our campsite. dead limbs not cleaned up. park is not being maintained. leash rule not enforced. other dogs coming into our camp that were not welcomed. its a free for all going on. weve been coming to this park for years.
@alishab3118641 · Camped on Jun 21, 2024 at Campsite #W60
I would not recommend camping spot 60. Our camping weekend started with us pulling up to our camping spot where about 5/6 vehicles and several people hanging out, in our paid for camping spot. We had to politely and awkwardly ask them to leave our camping spot. From there, we had to pay someone to borrow their mower to mow down the area we were staying. This spot provides absolutely no shade and to top it off by 8:30pm we were without power. We were up until 3am fighting with a generator that we had to drive over an hour away from Whitney to get. The park ranger did however get us setup at another spot the next day which was so great of him. But, setting up camp is work in itself. Doing it twice in one weekend, not so much fun.
@Stephanie43603 · Camped on Jun 16, 2024 at Campsite #W54
The trip would have been good if we would have had attendants at the entrance and also closing of the gate at night so we did not have to be afraid of our stuff being stolen. The whole time we kept having groups of people coming in taking over spots using the electricity and water without paying for it making our trip very uncomfortable. We had very little security also. They better hurry up and get attendants back soon or that camping is going to actually get dangerous. My brother was paid for his space till Sunday but he left Saturday afternoon and we left to go eat and when we got back to our camper a girl had set up a tent with lights in that spot which she did not have to pay for. I know we were there after the flooding, but I think the mowers should have been running in the park where people were paying to camp.

Had my son's 18th birthday party here and it went great. Decided to stay a few more days here and enjoy the view of the lake from my camping spot. Very relaxing!
@AllisonG8BDB7D · Camped on May 29, 2024 at Campsite #W39
Clean, well kept.
@TriciaA2554218 · Camped on May 27, 2024 at Campsite #W58
This park, Lofers Bend West, and all other Corp parks on Lake Whitney, Texas, are in desperate need of attention. They had NOT been mowed this year (2024). The shredders finally came out on Thursday, JULY 11th, then finishing mowers came out on Friday, July 12th. TWO holidays, Memorial Day & the 4th of July and the end of the school year (summer vacation) all took place with hundreds of visitors coming to Lake Whitney parks enduring tall grass, weeds, stickers, dead branches laying around, unable to play on the playground, etc. Also, over the winter and spring months NO TREE TRIMMING was done! Our NEW RV was scratched in several places and so was our boat canopy. Shamefully, people had to bring their own lawnmowers to mow around their campers, just to be able to enjoy their spot. NO PARK HOST was also concerning! Leaving open spots available to ANYONE without a reservation to use. I assume with the deterioration of Lake Whitney Parks, it would be an outlandish request to ask the Corp to meet the desire for more 50amp sites to accommodate the fact that Most RVs purchased in recent years are equipped for 50amps?? As a Lake Whitney resident, I used to be proud of our lake facilities, highly recommending Lake Whitney as a beautiful vacation spot to family and friends. I now hesitate, adding all of the above listed warnings to everyone interested. To the Lake Whitney Branch of the USACE: Please take better care of our parks, as an investment in our Beautiful Lake & the popularity of the Whitney area, it's people and merchants. Thank you for considering the suggestions for improvement in this review, as these are not only My opinions, but also the concerns of Everyone my husband and I have spoken with on our 3 camping trips to Lake Whitney this year.
@JasonG2268691 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #W26
Beautiful Park. Well maintained and clean.
@TerryS6065626 · Camped on May 11, 2024 at Campsite #W40
High water and flood conditions, but campground was great, however never saw one single camp host or camp staff the entire time we were there, except one camp host family who went swimming at the closed boat ramp after ignoring us at the check in area.

@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!!!
