Best Campgrounds near Bellaire, TX

Only spent a night here, but it was VERY quiet, completely dead-flat level site, with electric (30 amp). Beware of fire ants. Woke up to a beautiful fog in morning. Would return and explore. Saw numerous trails that looked easy, and tree/shade covered. Gate open 0800 to 2200. No campsites near river. Campground contacted us to inquire when we'd arrive (it was late) and confirmed we'd checked in before staff left. Generators not allowed, yay.

We love this beach. It’s our third time staying here, and each time it’s been quiet, peaceful, and hardly any other campers. We worried a little about the tide this time, but we kept an eye on it and it didn’t come near us. We stayed here in early December without a permit, and it was fine. The permits you buy are valid from January to December and we had heard that they don’t really enforce the permit rule this late in the year. The sheriff drove by a few times, as well as some beach workers and others who looked to be in an official capacity, and nobody stopped to check our permit. Nice sunrise and an amazing sunset behind the houses. Good cell reception. Beach isn’t really flat, it slopes down towards the water, but it’s close enough.

Nice clean state park.The camping areas were mode.Real nice there's barbecue grills there. I had 5G network with T-Mobile and good TV reception. The bathrooms weren't the cleanest.

This is an excellent campground. In my opinion, the camper pads are really nice. Long and wide can accommodate small or large campers and motorhomes. They are fire rings picnic tables. There's firewood for sale, lots of wildlife sightings. I got 5G network with T-MOBILE service and excellent television reception. The bathrooms and showers are really clean.

Everything seems updated and well maintained with a covered pavilion at each site and beach access close by.

Staying here as a pass through for a few nights. VERY clean campground. Very happy with the tidiness and keep up of it. The staff were great at check in. Sites are far enough away that you have privacy. Nice bathrooms and playground area. My dogs have enjoyed walking the big loops. Have also seen lots of alligators, as advertised, which has been pretty cool! Only downfall is the mosquitos, which isn’t the campgrounds fault. Just with the heat and swamps/lakes they are particularly bad. Large clean sites with water and electricity. My starlink is a little spotty with the trees but am still able to work remote with no major issues.

Very quiet so far but we’re here through the week! Lots of people are leaving trash behind! Please don’t be that person and ruin it for everyone! Friendly atmosphere quiet beaches! Great place to camp

Nice state park just west of Houston. Lots of hiking trails through here. Sites are spaced well apart and are private. We just stayed one night as we are headed to Big Bend, so didn’t explore too much.

Staff is awesome and helped us get in for a late check in. Spots have hook ups and great for a night passing through the houston area.

Gorgeous campground with a large lake and two ponds, a pool, putt putt, & tons of activities for kids! Retail cost is $60/night and totally worth it if you don’t have a membership!

There were approximately 8 boondocks here, there is adequate space to accommodate more. The weekends are loud and busy, during the week it calms down and gets quiet. There are also paramotors that fly over head, they are fun to watch.

Turn on to Rettilon road going towards the Gulf to get here.

Beach side is very nice since being remodeled. Great back in sites. Nice electrical and water service towers at sites. Great walking paths. Electric and water sites; nice dump station. Close to commercial/tourist area. The beach is a short walk from campground.

Love this state park! Sites are nice and wide and level. Beachside has recently (past few years) been redone and they did a fantastic job! You are within easy walking distance to the beach and while Galveston beaches may not be the best in the world, it is hard to have a bad day on the beach. Just sayin’

Absolutely breathtaking! Parked parallel to the dunes off the packed down sand! We’re a good distance from all the houses to avoid any potential issues. No permits required and the signs upon entering the beach make no mention.

I booked this site because it shows wifi as an amenity. However, the wifi is a pay-by-the-day only offer.

The pull through site was nice with plenty of shade. The site are far enough apart so you don’t feel you are in top of your neighbors. There was a fire ban at the time of our visit so we weren’t able to enjoy the fire pit. The near by visitor center was interesting.

Month long stay, $730, water, 50 amp. End of October/beginning of November the park is booked out as well as during warmer months. Half of the facilities washers and dryers didn't work. Staff is great about communicating lawn days and other news for long term guests. Trash valet and 2 free parking spots. 2 dogs parks, one for large and another for smaller dogs.

We stayed at spot 128 in the Burr Oak. It was very easy to back into, the site is super wide and full asphalt. Site was very level. Bathrooms were somewhat close, about 4 or 5 sites down with a shortcut through the woods. Not a lot of street lights throughout the campground made things nice and quiet at night. The site had good Verizon cell service, around 25-50 mbps. The Tmobile service was around the same. This place is very remote and the park itself is huge, we only stayed one night but it has a ton to offer! Overall the campground was clean, very quiet, with a ton of activities.
