"Stayed one Tuesday night in site 483, Big Pine Area 7, which is right on the lake."
"All hookups worked great, and they're on city water and sewer. The dog park was enormous, and Goldthwaite is a charming town with plenty to do if you look."
"It's not a concrete jungle, it's quiet, and the owners have gone above and beyond to provide new amenities. The Wi-Fi is free and worked great. Management was incredibly helpful."

GuideRestrooms and showers are a little aged but clean. The grounds are clean and mowed. Lake has good access. (Like other campgrounds, I do not like the reservation system , people reserve but don't show up. ) I would like to come back again later in the year.
ScoutSmall and clean. Bathrooms include showers. Was the only camper here. Six 50 amp full-RV hookups, a small pavilion, BBQ grills with picnic tables, and a playground. Would stay again
RangerI grew up going to this lake, but this was my first time camping at the state park. Very nice park, people were very friendly and helpful. Close to town, which is to say you are close to Underwood’s - awesome food!! Worth the trip for that alone. Also, recommend visiting Woody’s Car Museum in nearby Cross Plains - free museum with an awesome car and baseball memorabilia collection.
LegendJust two other campers. Everyone was very quiet. The campground itself was very nice and well maintained. Just the birds chirping and a few armadillos grubbing. Good overnight stay.
LegendPretty peaceful, with a beautiful sunset. Would definitely recommend. Thanks for the other reviews it helped me choose the location.
ScoutIt's a good park and all but there are things that I feel need to be addressed though whether anything changes or not is another. One can only hope for better.
Pro's: It is a pretty park and has plenty wildlife to enjoy if that's your thing. The staff are nice. The lake is beautiful. I see boaters who appear to be enjoying the water. Very pretty park.
Con's: People don't always respect your privacy at your site. We stayed more than a week and people would randomly walk through our site instead of walking around to get to their site. Not everyone did this but there is always those who don't care about respect & courtesy.
Another thing that we found to be rather annoying was people who walk their dogs into reserved but empty sites or even occupied sites right where people have to walk when camping and letting their dog poop and not pick it up. That is one of the most disrespectful things a camper can do in a park. Hands down anyone who does this should have dog poop put right on their front porch steps. Just saying...
Also, when a sign says "One Way", it says that for a reason. Drivers should pay attention better so it doesn't cause any issue.
Again, it's a nice park but so many people who decide to camp don't care about following rules or respecting another campers space.
GuideStopped in for an overnight stay very clean and camp host made sure everything was well with us!
GuideReally nice park with lots of picnic tables, playground, and large pool. Lots of people fishing and kayaking. The problem we had was that we needed water and electricity the night we stayed. Most electric boxes were locked and many water faucets were turned off. I found only 2 spots that had both. There's a sign up for a dump station but I haven't found it.
LegendLarge park with site options. Back in, pull through and RV, cabins. Sites are large with great views. Plenty of pavilions with lots of water and electric hookups. Lots of wildlife.
RV campgrounds near Bangs, Texas offer varied terrain options across a mix of rural and small-town settings in Brown County and surrounding areas.

Several parks have adapted to long-term stays with monthly rates while others maintain facilities specifically for overnight travelers.
Golf access: San Saba River RV Park provides direct proximity to golf facilities with concrete pads adjacent to the course. "Green grass, well spaced concrete pads, and large pecan trees right along the San Saba river. There are full hookups and cable tv," notes George B., though he cautions about parking under pecan trees where "a couple of large branches fell on and next to us causing us to move the first night."
Historic exploration: Located 30 minutes from Bangs, Heart Of Texas RV Park serves as a convenient base for exploring Brady's historic sites. "Nice clean park. New owner's and management! Spent one night and could see the work in progress. Level site. Nice and quiet," reports Shelly, making it suitable for short-term stays.
Riverside relaxation: The San Saba River provides peaceful settings for campers seeking water proximity. David R. found San Saba River RV Park to be "Decent for a City operated RV Park. It was quiet at night although the flood lights were a little annoying." The park costs $20 weeknights but increases to $40 for Friday and Saturday nights.
Quiet environment: Several parks within 30 minutes of Bangs emphasize peaceful settings. Matthew C. described Lone Oak RV Park as a "Sleepy little place," giving it 4 stars for its tranquil atmosphere. This contrasts with busier parks closer to larger towns in the region.
Affordable rates: Eagle's Nest Village RV Park offers competitive pricing that campers appreciate. According to Brandon P., "It's also a steal at $35/night." The park provides full hookups with city water and sewer connections at this rate, making it budget-friendly for travelers.
Helpful management: Attentive staff receives consistent praise at several area campgrounds. At Eagle's Nest Village, one reviewer noted, "Can't speak highly enough about Greg and Josh, who run the park. Excellent customer service." Similarly at Heart Of Texas RV Park, Jeff T. mentioned "The owners were extremely friendly and helpful" when helping them find an alternative site.
Rustic conditions: Many parks prioritize function over aesthetics. Brian B. described Eagle's Nest Village RV Park as "Rustic Park" that "needs some TLC but we had W, E, and sewer." He also noted limited resources in the nearest town: "There ain't anything in Goldthwaite so BYO."
Permanent residents: Several parks primarily serve long-term residents rather than overnight guests. Jeff T. observed at Heart Of Texas RV Park that "Most of the folks there seemed to be permanent residents, only 1 or 2 others seemed like they were passing through like us."
Variable pricing: Weekend rates often differ significantly from weekday rates. At San Saba River RV Park, David R. was surprised to discover "I thought it was $20 a night, but it turns out Friday and Saturday nights are $40 each."
Bring entertainment: Limited on-site activities require advance planning. Brandon P. notes that Eagle's Nest Village "won't win any awards for being new, flashy, or state-of-the-art" but appreciates that "it's not a concrete jungle, it's quiet." The owners are reportedly "installing playground equipment" soon to enhance family offerings.
Pet considerations: Animal encounters may require vigilance. At Heart Of Texas RV Park, Jeff T. reported "There were some stray cats in the park that kept trying to get into our trailer whenever we'd open the door," which could be problematic for families with allergies or small pets.
Amenity verification: Call ahead to confirm facility status. Bill P. recommends San Saba River RV Park but notes access challenges: "On the route into the park there is a large pecan tree that dragged across the top of my rv." He suggests an alternative route: "Turn off of hwy 190 onto cr 104 will save you from crossing a very uneven railroad track crossing."
Large rig access: Several parks accommodate bigger vehicles with specific site limitations. Bill P. confirmed staying at San Saba River RV Park in a "43' class A RV" and found the concrete pads "wide level" with "full hookups," though cautioning about tree branches along certain entry routes.
Navigation challenges: GPS directions may lead to problematic access points. When visiting San Saba River RV Park, Bill P. discovered "I followed gps directions in here which got me here but were not the absolute best way in," recommending a specific alternate route to avoid an uneven railroad crossing.
Wi-Fi reliability: Internet quality varies between parks. At Eagle's Nest Village, Landon reported "The Wi-Fi is free and worked great," which contrasts with limited connectivity at other regional parks that primarily serve long-term residents rather than travelers.
