Belton Lake Outdoor Recreation Area

We stayed in the Cedar RV Park section, site 19 in a 30 ft. coach. Electric and water hook-up only. No problems, but bring extra hose and electric cable. Great view of the lake and sunset. However, the bathhouse was atrocious; very dirty. Only one shower. Recommend NOT using the bathhouse. The Famcamp has beautiful surroundings, the lake; forest and numerous deer running about. As noted below many people speed through the park constantly, and the worst offenders were the folks who work there! Also several BLORA vehicles were just driving through the campground (at a high rate of speed) and seemed as to not doing anything else, just joy riding.

Awesome management, great camping and park. Lots of amenities!!! Love this place.

Love this place. Staff is great, management is amazing. It feels like your family. Great trails, basketball, volleyball, lake is great, fishing is great. Tons of parks all over for kids to play on. We can’t seem to go home it’s so comfy. 

Love love love this place, very nice and relaxing. The staff is amazing!!!!! They have renovated all the damage from flood and it’s great!! Grandkids love this place. The place is kept up so nicely. Great place to come. It’s our home away from home several months out of the year!!!! Carl the Manager is a notch above the rest! Gina his assistant is so sweet n helpful. Laura the director has really beautified the place.

BLORA – Fort Sam Houston $17 a day concrete slab RV site with electric/water/ covered picnic table/grill Pros: The price!! This is by far the cheapest campground we have ever stayed at Full hook ups are only $1 more a day, if available There are 3 RV areas at BLORA Trails near the grounds This place is HUGE! It’s situated on a 12 acre lake perfect for fishing, swimming or just enjoying the view Sites are relatively level Friendly staff (available 24hrs a day) Covered picnic areas by the water Parking everywhere, you can move your RV to be by the water for the day Free waterslide/paddleboats (after June 1st) Cottages, pavilions, picnic areas for rent Dry storage for boats/RV available Horseback riding trails nearby Mountain Bike trails nearby Civilians can come on post for $10/car, DOD pays $3/car – fee waved for your RV stay Cons: No swimming in the lake until after June 1st (lifeguards must be on duty) No WiFi Laundry consists of 1 washer and 2 dryers that are housed outside and are simply nasty Long distance to anything including base (10 mile drive to nearest gate) but that means star filled skies Though there are plenty of them throughout the park the bathhouses were more like a prison restrooms than a Park restrooms with metal toilets! None of them were well cared for, I have never seen such a bug build up in restroom supposedly being maintained by staff. People speed through the park constantly, I’m talking 40/50 MPH which is annoying but even more so very dangerous – we like to walk while in RV parks and doing so at this park was truly not worth the risk of being run over. 2 dump stations in park, both a bit awkward to get into and they are always flooded with well water so you will get your feet wet while dumping tanks +/- As we mentioned there are 3 separate RV areas in this park a little bit about each: Cottage RV park = near rental houses, have full hook ups but the layout is awkward between the water/electric/dump, there is ZERO shade for this area so be ready for the heat in the summer Cedar RV Park = These sites are closest to the lake but they only have 50 amp hook ups and none of the sites are full sites (electric/water only) Deer Park = the most shaded pads of the park, middle between the other two parks, Laundry is located at this park *** = They are adding additional RV spots in a field along the shore line in what they currently call We were told they were working towards upgrading the sites to full hook ups with 30 and 50 amp so be sure to check with them for current information. 

Pls read past reviews on BLORA. Not much has changed. I asked about the "newly refurbished' sites, but no one knew about them. Deer Park is still the only open lakeside area. Half the sites are full hook-ups. The other half are w/e only, tent only or closed. Inspect first. Bathhouse was cleaned up, pretty fair. Showers-the same. One washer and dryers in bathhouse. For the first time we stayed "up top" in the "cottage area" closest to BLORA office. All these 16 sites are full hook-ups. Water hookups are on the "wrong side", so have plenty of hose. BLORA is a great value if you're bringing your boat to fish to just get away from the city. For RV'ers looking for a stop-over location or brief stay-not the place to come. But then it wasn't built for that reason either. Some of the "old" staff from West Fort Hood Travel Camp are working here now and that's good news. Monthly rates can't apply America the Beautiful pass. They give you a discounted "daily" rate. We paid $375 for a month.

Didn't stay due to construction underway. It's shorter to say simply, call first. As of today there are no full hookups and depending on what you need or must have there may be no sites avail. One of three areas is closed completely. Word is full hook ups w/ 50 amp Svc are being installed in the next months. Call first!

This facility has degraded . Very much in need of upgrades, befitting the "great places".  Seems only to looks forward to making money from the crappy lights at christmas. I enjoy camping here, but I see a departure of standards.
