Best RV Parks & Resorts near Bowie, TX

As far as Thousand Trails this is an average park. There are some full hook up sites but many are partial hookups. You pick your own site which is nice but most of the full hook up sites are occupied by long term residents or annual site holders. The view of the lake is beautiful and the park is quiet. They do have a lot of amenities.

Sites: most were level, grass or gravel. Some have a view of the lake. I sprained my knee and ankle at this park because our site was so unlevel and the mud sunk our jacks a little. Our rig weighs 16,000lbs so the Class As should be careful. The ground was soft and I came out of the RV without thinking and twisted both. Medical services are within a half hour of the RV Park.

Each site had picnic tables and fire rings.

Cellular: we were able to work and stream video easily with T-Mobile and AT&T.

Amenities: Club House Shuffle Board Pool Hot Tub (closed while we were there) RV Storage Mini Golf Hiking Trails Laundry Bath House Playground Fishing WiFi

This is an RV only site!! As a tent camper this was more than a little upsetting to discover. However I went ahead and checked out the location to help friends who travel have a little insight.

I was not impressed by the amenities or location at all, it seemed a bit to open for comfort. There are no concessions for those looking to have a real RV park feel, in fact it is more like off grid stay. The original listing I found mentioned bathrooms, however the bathrooms there were closed and only open during the warm weather, so that was a bit deceiving. There was electricity hook up for RVs however so that seemed to at least offset the lacking other amenities.

The location is very close to area businesses but was overrun with long term oil service workers despite the 72 hour limit. Some of these guys had clearly been here much longer so the rules themselves were a bit confusing and seemed a bit disorganized.

I was told it is $15 -$20 per night and can be paid at city hall and advanced reservations can be made but are not necessary.

I personally wouldn't elect to stay at this facility without a lot of changes. It felt to open to the elements and without a functioning restroom it didn't seem to be all it was advertised.

Awesome RV Park! Manager and owner are on site every day, and are very responsive to your needs. Rural setting near Azle. Park is clean and well maintained. Safety and security are foremost, as park is completely fenced in with access via a code-controlled gate. Highly Recommend this as a great park for a short or long-term stay!!  About midway between Azle and Boyd. Country setting just a few miles from stores, gas stations, restaurants, etc. Nearby doctors, dentists, and Texas Health Hospital Azle. Several veterinary hospitals in the area. Everything we wanted for a long-term stay!! The friendliness and responsiveness of the manager, owner, and residents is a huge plus, and makes this a park with a real community feel.

Right off the interstate. Long term work camp. Very cramped spots. Nice store on site.

They tell you to go pick out a spot and then call it in to them. Most of the sites had no number and I told the office this. Rather than help, she argued with me and was very nasty. When I said I wanted a refund, they could not provide it. A guy finally helped me but I will never stay at this place again. Lots of shady long term residents. The whole place is just old and dated. Avoid....

At the time I stayed full hook ups where $15. Easy check in, just write your info down and out 15 dollars in an envelope. Very quiet and clean park. Great stop for a overnight stay.

I cannot speak highly enough of Lake Point RV Resort. We stayed for nearly a year, and moved out to pursue some amazing opportunities. After seeing what else in terms of RV sites there are in the Gainesville, Valley View area, as well as our experiences with these parks, I can only say that Lake Point exceeds expectations. When there's a problem, staff are always ready to help out, whether it's with the site or otherwise.

We recently stayed at another park, and our breaker kept tripping every 5 - 10 minutes all night long. We could not even keep either of our ACs on at all in the summer in Texas! Instead of helping us out, diagnosing if the pedestal was problematic, or allowing us to use our generator to combat the heat, they told us we should leave. I know that would NEVER happen at Lake Point, which is why we came back!

10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone looking for a site in the area of Valley View, Sanger, Gainesville. The facilities are superb and the people are great!

This place is clean and new owners are nice. My problem is with the “mayor“. There are mailboxes on site for long term residents but she refuses to let anyone use them except for her 2 family members that she let have 2 of the junky mobile homes on the property. One is with Denton County SO and his place looks like a junky car lot. Even a disabled vet in another mobile home she wouldn’t give mailbox access to. These are federal mailboxes not specifically for her relatives. The local PD goes to the office to just sit inside and do nothing during their shift.

We were here for 5 nights in August 2020. We were in back-in site 20, which was level, shaded and plenty wide and long enough for our 35’ MH and tow car. The pads are gravel with a paved pad for picnic table. There are a lot of pull through sites that are plenty long for big rigs and not tight together. They have FHU, great cable and very decent WiFi. Verizon cell service was 4G 4 bars. The fulltime and long-term folks are over in a different section. The park is on the Wichita River, has lots of ducks and geese that like the pond there and there are lots of kitschy things around the park. They have a pool, laundry and bathhouses- all clean. I did not meet any staff as they had contactless check-in– your paperwork is taped to the office door. There is plenty of shopping all around. We took a lovely hike through Lucy Park and saw the beautiful Wichita Falls. We would go back to this very nice park.

Full hook ups. Friendly staff. Roads were paved it a little run down. Crushed stone pads were flat and easy to stabilize. Also good for keeping the dirt out. Cement area with picnic table was at every site. Several long time guests on East edge the rest of the park was wide open. Had good space for dogs. Backed up to a river and had its own pond. Along the river there was no issue with road noise. No recycle collection or Propane on site. Was a nice quiet stay in Early March

There are water and electrical hookups in a field that acts as the RV park. It is however across the street from their adorable ranch that has a small zoo, rodeo arena and delicious restaurant. The owners are super friendly and our kids really enjoyed the animals. They’ve got lemurs, a kangaroo, bunnies, a zebra, a camel and all the farm animals! Cannot say enough about the food at the restaurant, which they will deliver to your campsite. They also were doing drive in concerts while we were there!

We arrived late  December and it was chilly. Sites with full hook up are limited, but even with annuals are still possible. One thing though, we found a great site (124 ) very close to the water which is a plus for us as my wife is disabled and needs a walker so if the water is too far it becomes and issue, but had to pay $3 more a night due to it being as they said a limited 50 amp service. Even though we are 30, still the cost is $3. With my wife issue it is a no brainer for us. All in all, the campground was quite, you can see when it is summertime, its a wonderful place to bring the family as it has a huge area for kid activities, family gathering and more.

Friendly small rv park has spacious sites some shade great tasting well water and helpful staff great place

This RV park is wonderful. It is paved and each space is concrete! All very level. There isn’t much shade as it is located adjacent to the casino grounds or on the casino grounds. Has a nice pool and many amenities. We ate in the casino both nights at Toby Keith’s. I Love this bar. The food was excellent!! We aren’t big gamblers. But did play a tiny bit. We had a great time and will go back.

Quiet and peaceful RV Park. The ladies at the office were very helpful and friendly. They are pet friendly with a nice dog walk area. The restrooms are spacious, clean, and have large residential style showers. We couldn’t have asked for more for our weekend visit during my daughter’s softball tournament.

Large RV park with many amenities and activities. I tent camped and cooked out the back of the Jeep at a back-in RV site that sure seemed to be the best spot of them all. The site itself was really large with huge old trees for hammocks. We had our own private access to the lake that was secluded by trees at our site. Picnic table and fire ring. The tent only sites was basically a big field with a parking lot nearby. I prefer to park next to my tent since my kitchen is part of the Jeep so the tent only site didn’t work for me.

I don't normally care as much for RV parks as they tend to lack in aesthetic appeal. Riverbend bucks that trend and is one of the nicer ones in the area. While there it is closer to the road, the fact it's a county road makes for less than usual traffic, particularly later in the evening.

If you venture back further into the park, you do get the sense of being out in nature that other similar parks tend to lack. Nevertheless, pricing is reasonable and the sites have all necessary commodities. This site gets a decent review from me for it's nice woods and water access.

Spent 9/29-10/1 at Kiowa II campground.  The RV parking pads are paved and were  level.  The sites are spacious.  Pull-through and back-in sites are available.  Pull-through sites are for shorter RVs as they are a tightly curved.

The biggest drawback is that they didn't mow....even for reserved locations!!!  The grass seed heads were no less than knee high.  This caused us to have to park our RV at an angle on the pad to get out of the grass getting caught in our door.

Additionally,  I walked to the bathroom at the swim beach and was very disappointed and amazed at the thick mature growth of sand burr sticker plants allowed along the beach.  There was a strip about 4-8' wide and approximately 40-60' long at the point the beach meets the grass.  The sand burr plants were also growing throughout the grass area.  I WOULD NOT STAY AT THIS CAMPGROUND IF I HAD RESERVED A SPOT THERE.  There appears to be no grass management at all in this area where children and adults generally would want to go barefoot.  Wish I had taken a pic... :(

THEN, in different bathroom at the Kiowa II campground, I found a snake skin wrapped around the bottom of a toilet!!!  This is in a bathroom with a closed door.  There was another snake skin in the waste basket between the sinks.  The light was also out in the ladies side of the bathroom.
