Located at Lake Godstone™ near Graford, Texas our Top of Dam Campground Connects Families to Nature. The Campground is about 80 feet by 250 feet and overlooks Lake Godstone™ to the West and a forested valley with Crappie Pond to the East. It is designed for group camping for large families or a group of camping friends with multiple tents and/or RV units. 5- 10 tents/small RV's can be parked on the campground. The comfort station with toilets and showers is a short walk to the upper trail where the secluded tent sites are located. There is also a portapotty beside the campground. The campground has two large fire pits, two large cedar picnic tables, a small shelter with two charcoal grills, table and seating, and a large tall rock protective wind cover to the North. The campground is accessible by a hilly gravel road. Light campers or RV's can access the dam over the spillway if they are pulled by heavy duty vehicles. A comfort Station with two toilets and two showers is located on the upper trail about a 5 minute walk away. A lower picnic area and fire pit shaded by the forest is located adjacent to the spillway. A new Crappie pond was built below the dam in October 2020. Fishing from the large rocks at the dam or the partially covered docks (with swim ladders and mooring post for kayaks and canoes) located around the lake is excellent and there are a number of openings around the lake to fish from. There are two water risers and two power boxes (20/30 amp each) provided at the campsite. Cell phone service is spotty. Wifi is free and is excellent. With four miles of mountain bike (non-motorized) and hike trails plus another five miles of all-weather gravel roads on our 188 acre ranch, there are lots of wildlife and vegetation viewing opportunities. The sports field complex with lit basketball, sand volleyball, soccer and baseball field is just a short distance away. The rate is $100.00 per night (8 guests) and each additional guest is $10.00 per night. FIrewood is $100.00 per bundle of 50 logs. Fishing is $10.00 per person per stay (under 12 children are free).  Note that we have video surveillance on all roadways of the property for security and wildlife census.

The campsite offers a picturesque and serene environment, with friendly and accommodating hosts like Carol and Dom who ensure your needs are met. Guests appreciate the clean facilities, including well-maintained bathrooms and showers, which add to the comfort of the stay. Activities such as fishing, swimming, and exploring trails are popular among visitors, enhancing the camping experience. However, some guests have noted issues with privacy, citing the presence of cameras and traffic on site roads.

We had a wonderful time getting back to nature! Fishing, hiking, kayaking, and swimming! We saw lots of wildlife and enjoyed the fresh air and all that God has to offer! The bathrooms were conveniently located and superbly clean! Even on a busy holiday weekend it didn't feel overcrowded! Definitely a must try for family campouts!

First and foremost, everything was beautiful. The land was well kept, peaceful, calm. Carol & Dom were absolutely pleasant to be around. They made sure we had everything we needed from the start of our trip to the end. I will definitely be back but with more people this time lol! I also noticed there were others camping with us on other areas but they were respectful and kind. We also did canoeing and paddle boating activities. At night, it was peaceful.

We stayed at panorama with a 20ft camper and we loved it. The dogs had a great time as they were able to run around and explore as well. The fishing was great considering the weather we had to deal with, (50+ mph wind gusts), but we still had a great time. Our hosts were awesome and accommodating. We definitely want to come back to do swimming and fishing when the water isn’t so cold!

Overall good experience, friendly staff and beautiful area. Not as private as described, several drive-ins on our site road, out of curiosity it seemed. We blocked the road with our car to keep curious campers out. The site had a CAMERA directly facing the entire campsite. NOT a private site at all. Left after we found the camera, it was creepy.

Great campsite with lots of activities for a group trip! Our host did a great job greeting us and showing us around the property. The bathrooms and showers really surprised us with how nice they were. Lake is great to swim and fish in.
