This is a very large park with over 300 camping sites. True, there is swimming, biking, kayaking, and hiking, so there is lots to do. If that is what you seek, this may be your place. But if it is quiet and lots of greenspace, look elsewhere. The sites are situated on the side of the park by the entrance road so during the day there is traffic noise and occasional sirens. With over 300 sites mostly filled, there is vehicle and foot traffic on the park road most of the day. Most sites are quite close together though you may be lucky enough to snag one of the few that is not. There was no privacy in any of the sites I passed, and some barking dogs. Our site was perpendicular to our neighbors, and the back of our trailer about 12 feet from the side of our neighbors'. Granted, we came from the lovely McKinney Falls State Park in Austin, but the contrast was stark. Bottom line, not our best experience so we moved on after a night.

Stayed in 263 and it was great! They have a 2 lane dump station which also helped with checkout speed. Only issue was there is no cellular service with T-Mobile.

This is our second time staying at Inks Lake over the Christmas holiday, and while it's a little colder this year than last, we're still having a good time! Park is very busy, but we love the hiking and other fun options available here. We also love visiting the Longhorn Cavern park down the road, as well as the winery.
I'm mostly doing this review because I couldn't find any info on this site before I booked it and spent a few months kind of concerned about it. There is a line in the campsite details "Parking Obstructions Horizontal (Road To Facility): Both". Though I could gather from context that parking in this site might be challenging, I couldn't get a handle on exactly what that meant. Everything else about it (lakefront, near Devil's waterhole and bathroom) seemed great so I booked it anyway. And it is a great site, aside from the traffic noise during the day (this section is very close to Park Road 4) and its parking quirks.
But...the "parking obstructions"...there are trees very close on both sides of the parking pad, and about 10 feet behind. There is also a fairly low branch on the tree right at the entrance to the pad. Parking our 28' travel trailer was totally doable once we got the right angle, but I don't think anything taller could have fit under the low branch. It also would have been much more difficult if the people with site directly across from us had been there at the time--as it was, we could use their driveway as extra runway since it angled the same way. It also would have taken some very precise positioning to get it so we could use both the awning and the slide, as we backed up almost to the tree in the back in order for the slideout to clear the tree on that side, but the tree on the other side was still in the way of the awning. Not a big deal, we'd rather have the slide than the awning, and the driveway sloped so sharply on the entry side there was nowhere to set anything under the awning if we had gotten it out anyway. So smaller trailers, tent campers, no-slide campers...this site is lovely. Anything larger than 25', 5th wheels, slideouts...it may not work for you.
So, I hope this info helps someone else. :)

We stayed at this park for two nights and left at the start of the Memorial Day weekend. Our site was level side to side but sloped down towards the lake. There was a lot of space on the driver's side of the trailer between our site and any neighbor. Our campsite backed onto an inlet of the lake. I had 4 bars with ATT. The staff was great and we rented kayaks one morning. Kayaks were good and actually had seats with some rear cushioning and back support. We paddled to the Devil's Waterhole and watched people jump off the rocks. We had a nice time on the lake.
They don't have FHU but the dump station has two sewer holes so that helped because it was a busy time.

Huge campground. Want a fan of this, however the review were strong and my own experience made me a believer. Camping all the way toward the Devil’s Watering Hole was perfect. Easy to back in the van and the views of the water were calming. I felt there was great space between the two camp sites to the right and left. The shower/bathrooms were new and nice. The hiking trails were also at this end of the park. Loved it. Camp store has basics. Ice cream, Gatorade, dog food, fishing gear and trinkets. Nice staff and appreciated the escort to the campsite given the unwieldy campus!

We did have a problem with bee’s at site 83 but once it got cold outside they went away. These sites were very close to the bathrooms and the bathrooms were very clean! I’m very scared of bugs and I was hesitant to go into the bathrooms but they had no bugs and it was very very clean! Unfortunately, there is a huge sticker problem. They get all over everything. Just don’t go outside barefoot and you should be okay! Overall it was a very nice place to have our family Christmas and I would definitely go back!

Did not have a reservation but Ranger picked out a site that would fit us. Unfortunately, she did not pick out a level one. Next day saw many better sites that would accommodate us and appeared level. Rate reflects we have TSP pass and did not have an access fee.
