    Lamesa RV Parking Area

    It’s free….. but seen better days

    This is our 4th time here I believe over a 10 year time frame. This is 2024. The electrical has slowly deteriorated. Site 10 this time had serviceable electrical hook up but…. More later. Site 4 showed on my meter to be good but upon hookup had a faulty circuit so going without the ac this warm late May evening. Site 9&10 seemed ok. Got set up and then took stock of where we are and noted the dead elm tree overhanging the site. One of those limbs falling on you would ruin your day. Didn’t check the water or make use of the dump.

    Midland RV Park

    Great stop over with lots of resupply options in the area

    Nice stop over. Gravel, level, all services work as expected. Staff was very friendly, bathrooms, showers& laundry are VERY clean and updated. Tokens& quarters are available at the office. Site#66, Long Pull through, easy in/out. Surprisingly strong internet. HEB, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes, lots of resupply options in the area. We would stay here again.

    Only negative, which is no fault of the campground, is there is a LOT of construction in the area making entry a challenge with some scary U Turns in the city because our Garmin doesn’t register it. 

    So for any traveling in the immediate future here’s some notes. Exit 134 is closed(2/11/22), take exit 135. Do NOT try any route that takes you on the entrance through town, that end of Midland Road is closed. Stay on the frontage road, go through the 4 way stop(the frontage road curves up& back), then continue on the frontage road(has some construction but is passable) to Midland road, take a right, the park will be on the left. The office is the 1st entrance and pretty clearly marked.

    If you’re traveling in the next month or so, call ahead and they can give you the latest ‘best’ route... wish we had, newbie mistake.

    Lamesa RV Parking Area

    Nice overnight stop

    Good overnight stop for weary travelers. FREE! No hassle with permit, just parked and plugged in. #10 spot electric worked just fine. Had a picnic table, BBQ pit & trash can. Park was clean & quiet with the exception of vehicles driving thru park with loud bass music but that would not stop us from coming here again.
