Birch Creek Unit — Hotel in Caldwell

Overall, a nice, large park! We reserved a spot in Post Oak and the partial shade, lantern hook, and picnic table were nice extras. Although we wish the spot (55) was wider to allow walk-around of the entire RV. Also would be nice to refurb the table, it was pretty rough. The fire pit was a neat design,, but could use more sand/dirt in it to bring the flame up to the grill grate.

Staff is very helpful,...
