One of the nicest parks weve been too. Spots are spacious and right along the water. Cleaning bathrooms too! Will be back!

We have stayed at this campgrounds several times and have enjoyed it each time. Everyone is so friendly and it is a short drive to explore Jefferson or a day trip to kayak the Caddos. :)

Early season so could have been raked to remove debris but park is nice. Bathrooms are adequate but could use updating. Nice area for kids to play. This park had some of the best tent sites facing the water.

Nice site, lots of deer. Water pressure changes frequently. Beautiful view.
@SusanG3849669 · Camped on Dec 17, 2024 at Campsite #E305
We had a beautiful setting backing up to the water. We were the only camper in our section, which gave us space. Otherwise, it would feel crowded. Pads for the campsite were new and wide enough to put the steps down and still be on concrete. Roads within the sections are narrow with sharp bends. Roads running thru the campground were covered with leaves, so it was not possible to see the edges of the road. Bathrooms had tiles falling down and did not look clean. The town of Jefferson is nearby, which is interesting to explore. The campground also had lots of deer to watch.

This is a beautiful park. I have come hear for years but they have improved many of the campsites and many of them are water front sites. The park personnel is also helpful and very friendly. There is good fishing and much wildlife to see. Jefferson, TX is only 15-20 minutes from the park and is a neat little town to visit.We will continue to visit Johnsons Creek.
@WilliamE293173 · Camped on Nov 27, 2024 at Campsite #T204
Stayed at tent site T204. Right near the restrooms. Just fyi everything seemed uphill. We chose this site because of its location and it not having as many levels of stairs. Electric service two seperate 20 amp plugs. Tent pad was 15.25' x 16.16'. Lots of motor boat traffic.

@JimJ2921711 · Camped on Nov 18, 2024 at Campsite #E105
Nice full hookup campsites with a good view to the west of the lake. Nearby bathhouse and playground. Great place if you have a boat and like to fish.Most of the sites have an open view to the sky. Deer wander trough the camp during the evening. We had more than enough room for our 30 foot trailer and attached tow vehicle. Television and Verizon reception was good. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Normally, we have a great time and there are no issues with either the campground or experience. However, this time, when we pulled up to our reserved space, (since October), there was a tent, on the tent pad, in our reserved site. These campers were part of the camper group in the adjacent spot, and had been advised they needed to move their tent as they could not set up camp in the grass, so they were allowed to move to the tent pad on my reserved site. It has always been my understanding that this was a RV camping spot but a tent could be included if needed for a larger group. No one in their group had an RV. The staff management offered to find another location for us. That was not an option for us so we agreed to allow the campers to stay on the tent pad for that night only. The problem was solved when heavy rain moved in and the campers left the area. I feel that since we had made the reservations for our camping trip, there should not have been an allowance made for others to take possession of part of the site we paid for. Otherwise, it was a nice trip and we were able to relax.

Wonderful camp hosts. Clean sites!
@ChuckJ70849A5E · Camped on Nov 15, 2024 at Campsite #E414
Camp host were very friendly. RV spots were very nice. There is a snack store at the main road less than a mile from the campground, but if you need something more a Dollar General less than a block from there.
@AdrianW535057D · Camped on Nov 2, 2024 at Campsite #E113
It's a nice clean campground...with plenty of deer and lakeside to view....the restrooms could improve as well as the tent sites...but overall I will say it's worth coming back to camp multiple times over again...park staff are very courteous as well...
@KeithL8E8C87F3 · Camped on Nov 1, 2024 at Campsite #T209
Great site, beautiful lake, clean restrooms - but in need of some love and care and repair.
@marjoriet0FE5C · Camped on Oct 24, 2024 at Campsite #E309
Beautiful lake, good kayaking. Bathroom was quite a distance away and not that clean. Campsites on outer edge of circle are nice but inside center of loop, tightly spaced. We had one night lakeside and that was great.
@TheresaM664204 · Camped on Oct 20, 2024 at Campsite #E314
Park personnel were very friendly and helpful. The is well kept and maintained. We were under a burn ban and understand why, but one site had a fire both nights we were there. I just retired as a volunteer fireman for 33 years and wish that group would show a little respect for the rules. They looked to be in there 60s and would think by now they would know better

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!!!
