Welcome aboard "vnguyen"! Hope we can help your enjoy your time out of doors.

I wrote the review that this thread is based on but it is almost three years old and I haven't been to McKinney Falls SP since. As said in the original report, it is not very thorough but the best I could do based on the short time we were there. I re-read my report and based on that I can say that the park is equiped with "screen shelters". These are wooden structures about 12X12 feet with the top 4' of each wall sreened in and the bottom 4' of the walls solid. Roofs are shingled and they stay dry in the rain unless the wind is blowiing really hard. The park may have added or up-dated the shelters since we were last there but I usually hear about these sorts of updates. Haven't concerning this park but you may want to check with McKinney Falls SP to be sure.

Happy Camping!
