The daily fees are per person over 12 per day & are from $3-7 which can add up un a hurry. A couple of years ago our kids joined us for a week @ Garner SP & I think the fee was $7/day, so for 4 adults that was an extra $28 a day on top of the camping fee of $22. So it made sense to have the pass because we were staying several days. The daily fees for each TX SP can be found at each park info site under fees.
Now that we qualify for the national Senior pass, we try to use COE parks, much cheaper..
