Rode my motorcycle to the campground to check it out. Got Very RUDELY asked to leave the federal campground.... The skinny wannabe cop, golfcart riding guy that runs the park. You are the reason why this campground will be at the bottom of the list. I will never go to this campground. I'd give it a 0/10.Dont waste your time and money here.

🌲 Bigfoot, Barbecue, and Bravery: A 5-Star Adventure at Stubblefield Lake 🌲 We spent Memorial Day weekend at Stubblefield Lake Campground on what can only be described as a primitive expedition of legendary proportions. This wasn’t just any camping trip — it was our high school graduation gift to my little brother: a chance to relax, reconnect with nature, and hunt Bigfoot. (Priorities.) Now, let’s set the scene: calm, peaceful campsite, tucked into the forest, just far enough from civilization that your cell signal gives up — but close enough to nature that something was definitely watching us. (More on that later.) As tradition demands, no great expedition is complete without a feast. Cue my wife — the true MVP — who, in the middle of a severe thunderstorm, fired up the pit and cooked the best ribs known to mankind. Lightning flashing, thunder rolling, and there she was, unfazed, flipping ribs like a backyard superhero. Gordon Ramsay could never. Later that night, the real excitement began. Deep in the dark woods, we spotted a pair of glowing eyes and discovered footprints that were way too big to belong to any of us — unless my brother had a sudden growth spurt into size 25 shoes overnight. We didn’t see Bigfoot, but I’d bet a full rack of ribs he saw us. Between the peaceful lake, the eerie nighttime adventures, and some of the best ribs this side of the Mississippi (rain or shine), Stubblefield Lake gave us a weekend we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for a calm place to relax and a chance to make history, pack your tent — and your sense of humor — and get out there. Would rate it 6/5 stars if Bigfoot had joined us for dinner.

Camping grounds clean, good camp host, bathrooms fine. Get a good spot and you can catch fish without even leaving your campsite. I have caught some nice 2-3 pound bass here regularly. Also catch crappie good eatin size but the catfish are finicky. Lots of bank fishing and kayak opportunities and also a boat ramp. Its close to hunting and off road areas

Stubblefield is a great place for those fanatics of camping. The sites are spacious with BBQ grill, picnic table and a nice sand pad to set up your tent. Park fee is 15.00. There are many trails that are easily accessible. Restrooms are well kept. Plenty of fresh air and nature to enjoy. Also, dont forget to pack a fishing rod and tackle. Whatever activity you decide to do this is just the right mixed of everything

Stayed 1 night here while hiking the Lone Star Hiking Trail. The campsites are well laid out for a small campground. The campsites have designated tent areas, fire rings, picnic tables, and water. There's bathrooms with showers available for use. The hosts were super nice and helpful. Loved the views of the water from my tent. Would definitely stay here again.

We were looking for a park for a nice day trip, picnic, out door games, and fishing. We decided to check out the two Sam Houston state parks Double Lake and Stubblefield Lake. Double Lake was (the better). It had more kid friendly areas, flatter and decent picnic areas. The fishing areas were not good. We thought it could stand a bit of an upgrade, like clear some trees and finish it out with grass to make the fishing area more user friendly. Looked a little dangerous for the little grandkids. So we said no and thought we will have better luck at Stubblefield. First thing we thought, we should have brought a four wheeler to navigate the potholes leading up to the park. The park! Good Bathrooms yes, but that’s about it. Not a lot of grassy land for games, smaller than the other park, which could’ve been manageable I guess, but the lake adjoining was not nice. Very muddy looking and not appealing at all to fish in. We said a big no to our 2 State Parks. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer about this. I know everybody puts 4 to 5 stars that they just LOVED it, but this family did not.

Typical family campground. Nice sites, somewhat close together. Picturesque sunrise over the lake. I will return.

Great place to camp with lots of shade. The road is a bumpy so watch out for the potholes. Maintenance has taken good care of the bathrooms which is greatly appreciated. We heard Bigfoot at night so be respectful to the environment when you're out there.

Great camping spot. Good fishing and very secluded. Dogs allowed. Motor vehicle like atv not allowed. Canoe launch area. Not great for swimming I don't trust that there aren't good sized gators.
