    Welcoming & Convenient

    Hilltop RV was super homey and easy to reserve. I was able to make a same day reservation and was welcomed with a cute goodie bag and welcoming staff. Lots of amenities as well.

    Gravel and Disappointment

    It's a gravel parking lot on the side of the highway. My worst rv park in 2 years that I've been doing it full time.

    Madera Canyon Roadside Park Dispersed

    Nice roadside park with hiking trail

    4 or 5 sites nicely spread out with picnic tables and garbage cans at each site, there are no restrooms or water, Madera Canyon trailhead starts from a small parking area near one end of the park and is a 2 mile loop trail with nice views, the trail information board says overnight parking is allowed at the picnic sites but not in the trail parking area, it does not specify how many nights, we stayed 2 nights in a class c with a tow vehicle, it was peaceful and the trail was a great hike. We had no Verizon service here.

    Few amenities, nice views

    While bikepacking drift boss, I set a camp here. Since there was just one other visitor in a camper trailer, no reservation was required. Tent camping was rather basic at each location, which offered water and electricity but no other facilities. A few minutes after we got there, the proprietors pulled up to take the$10 camping charge. We believed the price to be reasonable. There are no restrooms, so pick your bush carefully and remove all of your waste. Here, we enjoyed fantastic views of the sunrise and sunset. The setting, which is essentially a Prada storefront in the middle of the desert, is extremely close to the well-known Marfa Prada art display.

    Davis Mountain RV Park

    Not even a picnic table to sit at.

    The guy that owns the place is not a nice guy and the place is very noisy, dusty and absolutely nothing at all here. Not even a picnic table to sit at.

    Best RV park

    Best little RV park in Texas with all of your amenities! You receive 10% off with Good Sam discount , bringing your total to $41 per night for a 30 foot class C motorhome 1 per night. Also the most friendliest office lady, that offered us fresh eggs and gave us a little goodie bag.

    Saddleback Mountain RV Park

    Worked for an Overnighter

    There was no problem finding this campground(CG) as it is right off I-10 adjacent to a Valero gas station. We had paid online, and per the emailed instructions, we went and chose an empty site. After driving through and looking at sites that didn’t have trees that would interfere with our slide-outs, we went into pull-through site 29 with FHUs. As we were only staying overnight, we did not use water and sewer. The CG’s sites are all pull-throughs with FHUs. About 1/4 of the sites are transient workers or full-timers. When we were here towards the end of January, there were plenty of sites to choose from. Our site was plenty long enough for our 40’ 5th wheel and F450. This is a basic CG with no internet, but they have a laundry room on the back of the Saddleback Steakhouse and Bar that has seen better days. There’s also an unmanned office with instructions and a drop box for campers without a reservation. There were plenty of sites that have clear shots to the sky for satellite. We got 3 bars on Verizon. We should have used our sound machine as there’s a lot of road noise from I-10. There’s no formal dog park, but there is plenty of room to walk your dog. Other than the price, one of the reasons we stayed here was the raving reviews by other campers on the Saddleback Steakhouse and Saloon, especially their ribeyes. Boy, were we disappointed. We were expecting a big Texas-style steak. The steak was maybe 1/4 inch thick, and the hand-cut fries were greasy. This may be the only place in the US that still allows smoking inside. They live by their own rules here. On the bright side, this dive-type bar was interesting and somewhat entertaining depending on your views as this establishment is clearly pro-Trump and anti-Biden.

    Mountain View Lodge & Cafe (operated by the nonprofit Mobile Comunidad)

    Great place in Davis Mountains / Big Bend

    (Full disclosure: I am on the board of nonprofit Mobile Comunidad, which operates the Mountain View Lodge & Cafe)

    The Mountain View is a great place to stay while visiting the Davis Mountains / Big Bend region, convenient to McDonald Observatory, Fort Davis National Historic Site, Marfa, Alpine, and further to Big Bend National Park. All proceeds from the lodge and cafe help fund programs such as free lunches for school kids, food pantry food distributions, a bookmobile and more. You will enjoy our hospitality and the cafe serves a great breakfast and the best burgers around.

    Our staff will go out of their way to make your visit as enjoyable as possible. Check our reviews on other sites to see how folks like us. Happy trails!

    Pecos Park

    Rough, but it works

    Campsites are few and far between in this part of the world, and Pecos Park is a welcome option. Plenty of sites with giant picnic tables and trash cans that seem to get emptied regularly. Lots of trash and broken glass on the perimeter. It’s right on the highway, so bring your earplugs.

    Clean and nice

    Kind lady took our reservation over the phone. Clean place. The hookups looked fairly new. New plantings around. A bit of traffic noise but almost no traffic.
