Lake Sweetwater Municipal Park

Just far enough off I-20 to enjoy a quiet, peaceful night. Managers were very friendly and came to us to collect the nightly fee.
Gravel site was level and long enough to accommodate our 36’ rig and toad.
Electric in good working order and had 20-30-50 amp service.
Cool stone ruins of former pump station to explore. Ruins not dog friendly; lots of broken glass.

I was really surprised to find this cute little city park with water and electric hookups for only $15 a night. Easy in and out although some of the sites aren't clearly marked. The sites are widely spaced, trash receptacles are placed at each site, it was very clean and we were treated to a killer sunset.
There is a dump station on-site and garbage dumpsters.
Caution, watch out for goat head burrs. My poor dog had a terrible time with them.

We arrived late and it was a bit tricky to find - cell coverage for T-Mobile is terrible in the area (and non-existent at the site), but once settled it was a great place to grab a few hours of sleep before continuing the long drive thru Texas.

We are a 30amp B-Class. Electricity and water worked great. We didn't need to dump so don't know if that is available.

Other inhabitants of the site were reasonably well spread out and kept to themselves.

Not exciting, but clean and quiet gets me excited when I am tired from a long drive.

This campground is a no-frills location with easy access to US-20. Perfect for a couple days stay or an overnight stop. Sites have 50amp/30amp connections, water, and picnic table. Campground is right down the road from Lake Sweetwater access for swimming, boating, etc.

Location was clean and quiet and there is a Camp Host on location who will come around and collect the $15 fee for hook ups/ $10 dry camping. This is West Texas , so it's hot....pay the extra $5 for hookups :)

The campground was almost empty on a Wednesday night in late July. We pulled in, parked and the camp host came over to collect our fee. Cash or check only. Harrell,the host, is a big, burly, very nice biker looking dude. The sites are dirt and some are more level than others.Great electricity, all we used. No water or sewer on our site.Good ATT service.On my morning walk I saw Vermilion Flycatcher, Ruby-Throated Hummingbird, Mockingbird, Finches, Whitetailed Dove, Curve-Billed Thrasher, numerous sparrows, Cardinals, a Pyrrhuloxia(?),and my husband saw woodpeckers. There is an old stone amphitheater across the creek that was visually appealing. 3 miles or so to town.

Once we arrived at the campground I remembered I had forgotten to stop at the municipal golf course to check in. It was not far from the campground, but it's a good thing we didn't get set up first - it is not within walking distance.

The golf course has a suspension bridge near the clubhouse that looks nice from far away but on closer inspection you can't walk across it, although I'm sure in the past you would have been able to. The staff at the golf course are so nice and friendly.

Once we drove back to the campground we couldn't figure out where to park - the sites are somewhat haphazard - just find one you like and hook up (water and electric only). This is fire ant season so ants were everywhere - be sure to bring some insect repellent because mosquitos were also flying around. Most sites are fairly level and pull-through.

We did not find the dump station but were told it was near the restrooms near the entrance. We also did not find the lake - there are no views of the lake from the campground as far as we could tell. We did get out and walk around a bit and saw an amphitheater that was very run-down.

The location itself could use some work but I'm sure being a municipal facility, funds are tight. The price at $15 is about what I would expect to pay for a location like this.

There are no restaurants nearby because the location is pretty remote. Bring food to prepare with you.

We ran our fan all night because it was a little warm making it difficult to determine the noise level. The campground is located close to the road.
