Diamond In The Rough

We stayed four days at this park and really enjoyed it. Positive: The spaces are spacious. The roads are in decent condition. We liked the covered picnic table. Great swimming area. Very nice lake. Negative: Bathrooms were filthy. Trash was everywhere. The grass along the roads was high. Water pressure was low.

Tidbit Information

Even though the review is several years old I just need to respond. Having worked for the Army Corps for the last five years the gates being locked at 10 pm is not for your inconvenience. The reason is for your safety. There are campground host that can help with any problems the camper may have.

Don't touch anything

We love COE parks. This park is filthy! I added three pick of the men's bathroom. The walls and floors are deplorable. Frankly, whoever is responsible for this park at the regional office needs to stop out at least once to see the park they are responsible to care for. Just don't touch anything.

Close & Enjoyable

So we live in N Austin. We wanted to get out of town, but not too far out, and somewhere other than Georgetown, for a different camping experience. We like wooded camp sites near lakes, with the potential for hiking explorations. We decided to try out Wilson H. Fox because of it's proximity and what it stated it offered. I also prefer using Recreation.gov as a research site when looking at camping. We stayed in camp site 8. We were worried it may be too close to site 10, and it may be for some. It's what's behind that counts. This site backs along Granger Lake, with wooded trees. The Army Corp of Engineers offer covered picnic tables and a fire pit with full hookup for electricity and water. There is also a dump station on site. I would say site 6 and 4 are also very nice. There are bathrooms and playgrounds also available. During the warmer months, bring your boat, as the is also a boat ramp and pier available. The camp hosts were very nice, as were our neighboring campers.

Nice place but gates closes at 10pm and opens at 6am. Didn't realize that we weren't adults yet. Maybe I will be one day.

Nice and fairly quite during the week. Clean. Docks and fishing pier were closed due to high water. I'll come back.
