This is one of the most beautiful state parks in Texas that we have ever visited. The showers at the Pecan Grove campsite were very clean and well-maintained. The trails to Old Baldy and Crystal Cave were a bit rocky, making them a fun challenge for small children, but they had a great time exploring. If you're looking to visit just one state park in the Texas Hill Country, I highly recommend this one—just be sure to know how to avoid the crowds.

Lot of things to do like camping, hunting, kayaking, picnic etc. We came to see the Old Baldy Trail, make sure to wear comfortable shoes as the trail is very steep and rocky the view above is amazing, also frio river is beautiful and great for pictures.

Make sure to try their ice cream and homemade fudge down by the park store. Just make sure to make your reservations in advance, as they fill up fast.

We've been here many times and camped overnight twice on the last year. The shelters are nice to have if you want to skip the tent. The water is clean and cool for summer weathers. We've also hiked Old Baldy a few times and the scenery from up there is just breathtaking. This is a big state park so there are plenty of space to share. The only feedback I have is the restrooms could be better. There were 4 showers in one of the buildings but 2 were out of order. The public restrooms right across the dam area are a little rundown and could use some cleaning and updating but not a deal breaker. We will be coming back more often.

Its only about 30 to 40 feet deep, but still pretty neat Bridges trail was also a great trail.
