A 300-acre park with many fun outdoor activities.
Reviewed By Carl C - Somerville
Normally this is an excellent facility but due to flooding of the lake, the park is closed. The facility lost hundreds of trees, restrooms, docks and other damage. They are trying to get things back in order but it will still be months until all repairs are made.

I really love presidential history and have visited several of the Presidential Libraries and Museums. Eisenhower and Truman's were my favorites until I visited this this Museum. The staff is exceptional, from the security staff to the volunteers and docents, everyone wants to make sure you enjoy you visit and are more than willing to assist your. This museum like most Presidential Museums has a replica of the Oval Office. What sets this one apart is that visitors can actually go into the office and take photos. Museum Volunteers will even take your photo with your camera while you are sitting at the presidents desk. The events of 9-11 defined Presidents Bush's time in office and there are a number of exhibits and artifacts on display. This is an outstanding museum and if you find yourself in the College Station Area you should make time to visit. Personally I spend a little over 4-hours here and enjoyed every minute.

A very nice spot for a picnic and nature hikes. Lots of shady picinic tables throughout this section of the park. (Overnight camping not in this review) The restrooms and other facilities look close-to-new and are very clean. The showers are great - indoors and outside.This park features horse, bike and hiking trails (quite extensive with mixed terrain for differing abilities) with horse camping open air stalls in numerous campsites. Lake Somerville is only moderately affected by the long term drought in Texas: fishing is reportedly good to very good and boating has not been hampered. There is no developed swimming area with sandy bottom but swimming is permitted in at least one area of this end of the park. The staff is very friendly. Its a long way from town so bring everything you'll need for the day.The best deal for out of state visitors and residents is an annual state park pass - gets up to 15 people in one vehicle admission for each day.

I really enjoyed my trip to Kyle Field. I was extremely impressed with the quality of the video screens. Food is outstanding. I highly recommend the pepperoni rolls. Wonderful staff. Be prepared for some walking. Uber is very good in College Station.
