The cabin was infested. Dead and live gnats on every surface, even the beds along with spiders. Had to go back the office to get them to clean it, which should've been done before we arrived.
Anyways, we went to walk the beach and were met several people, in lifeguard swim suits, telling us we weren't allowed to be there cause they didnt have a lifeguard because they were understaffed, but they sure had plently of people there to tell us all the things we weren't allowed to do.
This was a very good recreation area. It is set in the hills at a pretty big lake. Plenty of kayaks and boats to rent. There were also some good fishing spots and a decent beach area. The only way we could figure to get there was through the Apache Gate/Apache Gate Rd.
We stayed here for my brothers graduation from basic, and by far the worst place I've ever stayed at. We arrived to find someone in the spot we had reserved weeks in advance. When we went to the office we were met with attitude, and the man said the person in our spot got bit by a dog... ok?
My family had a great time. We played on the double water slide. The lifeguards are really nice there. We had a blast at the sand beach swimming area & playing in the sand.
It was a really big disappointment, we wont be going back. Only good thing is the scenery.
The rv spots had no fire pit, no trees, and no shade. The showers were dirty and the mats on the floor had mold on them. And there was a raccoon running around the campsite without its tail and one of its legs. And not like stubs, they were open wounds. The lady staying close to the bathrooms said he has been running around like that for a while, and she has tried to get them to do something about it and they told her, "it will die soon enough". It was so sad.
The Recreation Center, Lake, beach area, rental boats are great and reasonably priced. The staff/volunteers/whoever they are.... not so great. They were rude and seemed very upset to have to do their job. Worth it once for sure.... I'll see how many more times I can put up with the rudeness I experienced before it starts to interrupt my fun.
When I asked for a list of activities he told me they were all closed; no paddle boats, no water slide, amd every staff we met was rude about it. Still had to pay full price for our spot though.
This is my second time to stay at LETRA. I always stay at the RV park, both times have been great experience. Full RV hookups (electric, water, sewer, cable and WIFI). Staff are super friendly. The views of the Lake and Mountains are great!
