    $13 per night to add a tent to a site. I think all campgrounds want to limit 1 camper/tent and table canopy per site.
    Our late camping trip in a tent. Our neighbors felt the need to keep lights on. Our tent had a canopy at the front and all covered with tarps. Good thing, saturday night we were in a storm. The canopy didn't make it, but has been parted out to others.

    I remember that storm at Enid canebreaker. I found out then that I needed a new tent and thank God for seeing me safe through the night.Ms. Marsha had headed home the day before.I had 2" of water in the tent and that air mattress kept me dry and off the floor!You're more than welcome to pitch one on our cabin site if you pay the extra cost and if it is ok with the park.

    Steve, I checked the Reserve America website and found this.
    No camping units are allowed in the cabin, day use or group camp areas.

    We drove through North Abutment looking for tent friendly sites. It was after a rain, some of the good looking sites held water.

    How far is town from the dinner site? Went to fall camp and had a blast. Maybe should get a hotel room and just drive back and forth.

    Most of the motels are centered around I-55 and Hwy 8. I think about 5 miles from Lakeway, another 1 to 2 miles to Grenada Landing.
