We only camped here one night! Great find! Water/ electric sites- our site was very level that we didn't even unhook camper from truck. Very clean park! Restrooms maintained. They have Boat ramp, beach & laundry room. We would stay longer if in the area again. Hosts were super friendly & helpful. Very shaded sites & most appeared very level

Beautiful, forested State Park located on a reservoir lake, with a boat ramp. Clean bathrooms and laundry areas,(2 located, 1 at each end). Nice playground! Just wish I had a boat!!

Can't wait to go back! The RV site fee included electric & water hook up, dump station, and use of public bathroom with laundry. Very well kept area.

The camp host were great folks. Camping sites were very nice and easy to back into. Kayaking on the lake was easy to access from the boat ramp.

We camped in site 2, enjoyed being near the restroom building plus playground. Loved that laundry was free (no quarters needed) but definitely missed no wash sinks. Being a lakeside campground, all suits are going to need a good rinsing from muddy water. There are tents sites, too. Curious what those tent campers did for washing dishes if they forgot a dish pan. Bathrooms/showers were very nice/almost brand new with lots of towel hooks, benches and hot water. Hand soaps in most bathrooms stayed empty the whole holiday weekend. Beach and fishing docks were great! In future visit, I'd probably pick site 1 (better lake view) or site 51 (lakeside).

We were there in June 2023, and the camp host was very friendly and helpful. The park was nice, it kinda has a state park feel to it. The sites have 50 amp service. Our only complaint would be that the sites are pretty close to each other and do not have sewage. All in all, it was a great overnight stay, and we will consider returning when we are in the area.

Beautiful site and spacious activity area. The only downside is that I-20 is only about a mile away and some traffic noise can be heard at night.

Stayed 4 nights over Labor Day Weekend. What a great place. As full-timers we always like to find a place that takes us back to camping. Parks Ferry was it! Loved everything about Parks Ferry. The whole place is clean and very well maintained. The space between sites was more than adequate. The hosts were awesome! They welcomed us in and helped to relocate us when the power at our reserved site failed. From lake access to clean bath houses to nice level sites with a grill, table and fire pit this campground is legit. We have family in the area so rest assured you have new repeat customers. Can't wait to come back.

Great Park! Close to Shopping and Eating but still secluded. Quiet Beautiful Camper Spots, Beach and Lake views.

Camped here for the first time in June ‘23. The hosts were so welcoming, helpful and just super nice. The park is well maintained, bath houses very clean. Good boat ramp, not too steep. Fishing was good. We will be back.
