    The campground was very nice,! Bathrooms were very clean, grounds was nice and a very quite peaceful play to be. I loved how the campground manager Mandy and Mike hosted bingo and the block party for the holiday weekend. They are very active and attentive in the campground. Only suggestion I would have is electricity needs to be added at the pavilion area as the stormy forecast moved the activities there, so lights and fans would have been a big plus. Thank you Mandy you make Douglas Tailwater a fun, clean and safe place to be!
