the agency’s own description · what’s there
In the agency’s own words
The Evans Creek Campground has several campsites along Anderson Ranch Reservoir. There are 18 campgrounds along the Reservoir and this area is the gateway to the Trinity Recreation Area. Recreation: The reservoir is a popular destination for fishing, boating, waterskiing and riding personal watercraft. It is stocked with smallmouth bass and kokanee. Also, you might try your luck at fly fishing for trout just below the dam. The communities of Pine and Feathereville are only a few miles away with restaurants, groceries and fuel.

Nothing to book, just show up
One of 1,623 federal campgrounds where the site still goes to whoever pulls in first. Get there before noon on a summer weekend.
recreation.gov publishes no availability for a campground you can’t reserve, so there’s no thirty-night reading to draw here. The season bar above is what the agency does publish.
