It's a beautiful park. A lot of very young deer. Restroom is clean. I was in E114. It has a nice view of the lake and is very close to the boat ramp. I will go back in the spring.

This is a real gem of a campground. The campground is clean and well maintained. The sites are laid out spacious with a view of the lake as a primary feature. We stayed in E310 which we have stayed before and was a very pleasant site with a nice view. The bathrooms could have been cleaner as we noticed the difference between this park's facilities and the local Daingerfield State park. The hosts were pleasant and efficient. The online interface to book a camp site was orderly and easy to use. We stayed in the middle of the week so the sites were not overcrowded. Overall a pleasant stay which we have come to expect at this site.

My wife and I stayed here for three nights and it was really nice. The site fit my 32 foot Bumper pool RV and pick up perfectly. Everything was nice and clean as well as everyone appeared to the 10 o’clock quiet time. Highly recommend brushy creek for a quick getaway.

The campsite was clean. Everything was well maintained. One of the bathrooms could have used a wipe down of spider webs, but it IS a campground so I’m not too concerned. The weather was windy, and we were under a burn ban, but that didn’t stop us from enjoying ourselves. We love this place and will be back!

Hosts were nice and put our site tags out on the window since we were arriving after the office closed. We had a double site and our son and family joined us the next day. The park was clean. We had some pretty strong winds that blew some small branches and twigs down but nothing major. It looked like they had trimmed limbs etc. Very enjoyable stay.
