I should have been clearer of my requirements.

1. I do not need FHU for a one night stand and like COE/BLM campgrounds. My first choice was Spring Canyon, but understand it is not Big Rig friendly.

2. I did the google search. I wanted someone with real experiences to add their comments.

Steamboat Rock State Park is big rig friendly, at least most of the sites. But getting in there now for the summer could be a big challenge the sites usually book up in January - its a very popular boating lake.

Sun Lakes Resort is a private CG on Banks Lake that can handle some large rigs. It's closer to town and for the laser show. Make sure you read the rules before you go. The complaints I read were mostly people that didn't follow the rules. Do be aware on weekend they have music, that can be an issue. We stayed Sunday-Friday and didn't have the issue, but it's a very busy, popular campground.

If I had my choice between the two I'd go to Steamboat Rock in a heartbeat.
