Park on the Lake is the place to camp if you want some lake side camping in a small, friendly, and well maintained park. Their sites are on the shore of Lake Conroe in a protected cove with easy access to to Lake Conroe. Lake Conroe is a 20,000 acre lake that is excellent for catfish and bluegill fishing, fun to cruise, and has some fun and lively bars and restaurants. The Park terrain is flat with some trees providing limited shade. The shoreline is either a grassy or sandy bottom making it excellent for boat parking or swimming. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Pets are welcome.
We like to start the day by finding a cove with some calm water for skiing. After that we'll cruise by the beautiful homes in Bentwater which is on the west shore almost directly across from Park on the Lake, then head to a cove to swim and watch the Bentwater golfers try to par some of the challenging water holes (don't park to near the shore or you may end up with a golf ball in the boat), and finally end up at Papa's Ice House which is at the west end of the dam and a fun and lively spot for drinks, appetizers or dinner, and live music.
We also like to borrow the Park's volleyball net, crochet set, or horseshoes and round up some campers for some fun in the sun on the Park's activities field. And of course, a camping weekend isn't complete without a round of washers and ladder golf - you can purchase this fun game on Texas Outside's Games Merchandise Page.
