A couple years back we stayed at Lake Towakoni. The road into the camp ground was very crappy. The main roads in the camp ground were paved but everything else was dirt roads and VERY dusty. The facilities were run down. A lot of sites had non functioning electric. The lake itself was very low due to a severe lack of rain but the fishing was good. If you like isolation, then that's the place to be. Nothing in the area. The closest gas station was in Canton. Very small town with a Wal-Mart and an Asian buffet. Oh yah, they did have that First Monday flea market and we enjoyed that. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not judging east Texas as a whole, just that particular area. We have stayed other places in Texas, albeit not east Texas, but places like Amarillo, Fort Sam Houston, been to the State Fair Of Texas by the old Cotton Bowl, etc. We just don't plan on heading back to the Canton area any time soon.
No disrespect, just our experience.
