This park is so pretty and quiet. We just loved it. Due to high water all water activities were suspended so there was not much to do. Even the fishing pier was under water. One of the campground loops was completely closed. The restrooms were clean and well kept. We met some very nice people camping there all of whom said Caddo Lake was one of their favorite parks. The only negative we have is that the pull through sites are very tight and hard to maneuver and it was very frustrating. They need to clear out a little more space at each site. If it had not been for that I would have given them a 10. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a beautiful park. The wooded sites are amazing. You have to take the boat ride onto the lake to experience the beauty of the lake. It is like nothing I have ever seen. It is like stepping back in time to a prehistoric movie. The park is well kept and super quiet. This is one of our favorite parks in TX. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice park but tight fit for a 40' coach. Roads are narrow and twisty and there are loops for turning around that are a challenge. We were assigned to a 30 amp site but kept popping the circuit breaker even with only the front AC running. We think it was a problem with the electrical stand as we can run the front AC at home on a 20 amp circuit. They moved us to a 50 amp pull-through site but then we could only stay one night we had planned on two nights. Sites are in a forest, black-topped, and widely separated. Fairly noisy, though, even with the separation. Was mostly disappointed for a Texas state park, we've been in lots better -- and we're Texans. Don't know that we'd get back with a coach of our size. Park fee was on top of RV fee. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We visited during Easter. We stayed in the Woodpecker Hollow loop in spot 23. The site is an asphalt pull through and did require the use of leveling blocks. Woodpecker Hollow is the full hookup loop. The springtime temperatures were great and no problems with insects at the campground. We went on a hike on the Caddo Forest Trail. We did use insect spray as we entered the forest. The hike was guided by a volunteer (the park host) and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This park was well maintained and the sites were level, but we could not find the lake. I'm a Texan so I know there is a Caddo Lake, but we never saw it. If was quiet. Very quiet with only two other campers in the park when we were there. Spooky. I don't think this is on our list of campgrounds to see again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park is just a grass field with two rows of hookups. Has some 50 amp sites. There is no gravel, even on the roads, and it would be very easy to get stuck if it were to rain a lot. Our rig is a little over 13 feet tall and we hit several tree branches on the way in. There was no one in the office when we arrived so I called the number in the Passport America Guide and left a message on the answering machine. When the owner came to collect in the evening he was less than friendly. He said the rate was $18 and I replied that I had Passport America. It was obvious from his reaction that he was not happy that he had to give me a discount. He said the price was $12 then. I told him the guide said it was $9 and he said there was an additional charge if you had more than one A/C and that if I didn't like it I could go elsewhere. Of course, I was already set up and settled in so I was not about to argue for $3. We will not be back. It was worth $10-$12 for a place to park, but it is way off the beaten path and it needs a lot more development and attention before it will be much of anything. My conversation with the owner convinced me that no more money will be spent on the place until he has more money coming in to pay the expenses. Sounds like a Catch-22. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
New campground near Caddo Lake State Park. Wonderful area to visit. Would go back. Roomy, level, unpaved sites. Good catfish resturant next door. Bayou located across the road from camp. Except for facilities at parking site (water, elec, sewer) there are no other facilities. Never did find where to leave trash. Thought this park better than other local commercial parks but not as good as the state park.
