Galveston Bay RV Resort & Marina

With full hookups for RVs up to 60 feet, Galveston Bay RV Resort & Marina provides waterfront access through both drive-in and boat-in options. The resort features two swimming pools, a marina with wooden docks, and dedicated fishing areas including two large fishing piers with night lighting.

Galveston Bay RV Resort & Marina is THE BEST place we have ever stayed at!!!

Annie, the manager, was very helpful and answered all my questions. She even came in on her day off to make sure we were given the correct waterfront site. I also noticed all the people staying were very nice and would say hello or wave if driving by. There is 2 nice swimming pools. One pool for kids and the other for adults. The Marina for our boat was perfect and inside a cove that was nicely made out of wood. I could see my boat from where our motorhome was and took 2 minutes to be out fishing. The fishing is absolutely AMAZING! If you don't have a boat, the resort has 2 big fishing docks with very bright night lights. You will catch a fish in under 30 seconds at night using a live shrimp. On weekends, they have a Palapa and do Karaoke. Also, there was Bingo and a painting party in the large community room. The Resort reminds me of being in Hawaii with the way they built and decorated. They just need steel drum or tropical music playing in the background and you wouldn't think you were in the US Mainland. 5 stars and highly recommended!!!
