  Hackberry Campground — Palo Duro Canyon State Park

  secluded atmosphere

  The campground has basic amenities like water, restrooms, and picnic tables at most sites, ensuring a comfortable stay for both RV and tent campers. While the park can get busy, Hackberry often provides a quieter experience compared to some of the other campgrounds in the area. You might encounter native wildlife like idle breakout roadrunners, wild turkeys, and even deer, which adds to the natural charm.

  Silver Wind RV Park and Cabins

  Nicely kept campground with a food truck

  Planned on spending only one night here but due to weather ended up staying for two nights. The campground is in a little town that basically has nothing. The campground owners Leisha and David are super nice and live there. The campground is in great shape. Sites are level and full hook ups with pull through sites were $30. They also had laundry, Wi-Fi, showers and also cabins for rent. Wednesday through Sunday. They also had a food truck that was open from I believe 5 til 8 where they served a bunch of different types of food.

  Oasis Amarillo Resort

  Convenient Overnight Stop

  We always stop in Amarillo when we travel from the DFW area to visit our son in Colorado. We've tried just about all of the Campgrounds/RV Resorts in Amarillo. Since Amarillo is basically just a resting place and there's not really any other perks, we just want a safe, quiet place to park over night. I couldn't find much as far as reviews online(it's relatively new), so we were a little leery about booking an overnight stay. 

  However, I'm glad we did and I would 100% stay again. Booking was easy. Check-in was easy. It was super convenient to not have to unhook, and to walk over to Love's to grab a quick pizza for supper. There was a nice little dog park. There was a corn hole game and a covered picnic table. The RV area is separate from the fueling area and truck area. We never heard any highway noise or parking lot noise over night in our RV(A/C was running...it would probably not be as quiet if you were to have your windows open). 

  Our site was pull through. It had water and electric. It was very level and easy to get into and out of. I do wish that their price was a little lower. On our return trip, we stayed down the road at Oasis, and only paid a few dollars more, but had access to a swimming pool, game room, laundry room, etc. But it's a good option, and I would stay again.

  Oasis Amarillo Resort

  Great Mid-way Stop Between DFW area and Colorado

  Amarillo is a nice halfway point when traveling to Colorado from the DFW area. Over the years, we've stayed at various RV Resorts/Campgrounds there. Oasis is comparably priced to the others, but being on the outskirts of Amarillo, it was much quieter and we felt safer. 

  They have a beautiful swimming pool. There is a clubhouse that had a video game and a basketball game for the kids. There were puzzles, books, a kitchen area. It was very nice, quiet, roomy. They did have a hot tub, but at the time we were there, it was not in working order. 

  They have a good sized, fenced dog park. There are dog waste bags and receptacles pretty much at the end of every street. The streets in the RV Resort are named so finding our campsite was very easy. The bathrooms were plentiful throughout the Resort. Each contained a private shower. 

  We only stopped for a quick overnight to break up our drive home from Colorado. We didn't have to unhook. The sites were pretty level. We stayed in site 41. It worked fine for us, but I probably wouldn't choose that particular site again. It is right next to the restroom/laundry facility(which was very convenient), but our slide was on that side. Had it been busy, we would have heard bathroom traffic all night. But there are so many restrooms, this was not an issue. Also, the placement of the sewer hook up was out of reach. We just pulled up and dumped when we left. 

  There was a food truck there when we arrived, which was convenient. We bought our supper from there and it was nice not having to cook, or unhook to go somewhere to eat. That being said, the food from the truck was nothing to write home about. But they were friendly.

  Amarillo KOA

  Cute KOA - access to all of Amarillo

  We were in site #12. We had Full hook- up with a gravel pull-through. We travel towing a 14 foot trailer and were able to fit both in our pull through site along with my jeep.

  The site was easy to level.

  Our site was not shaded with limited trees. This was a smaller lot with our neighbors very close.

  The lot does not have a concrete patio or fire ring but has a picnic table.

  It is an easy access to the campground from highway -(approximately 1 mile from highway).

  There is free WiFi. They do not offer Cable TV but there are many channels.

  They do not sell wood since fire burning is not permitted (only charcoal).

  They do not provide garbage service at your site so you must walk to garbage dumpster (located through out the park).

  You are allowed to ride personal golf carts. They do not provide golf cart rentals. There is really not a need to have a Golf cart because it is a smaller campground.

  They do have a heated Swimming pool.

  There is a Playground. There are not any additional play areas like Bocce ball, shuffleboard, basketball sport court, or volleyball courts.

  They have a great general store. They sell limited food & alcohol as well.

  The streets are gravel so not great for riding bikes. There is not really anywhere to ride bikes outside of campground.

  They have cabins for rent and tent areas.

  They have 2 shower houses. The shower house has the typical stalls. These are kept very clean.

  There is a laundry facility. It is a cash only facility, but they have a change machine. There are approximately 6 washers and 3 large dryers. It is approximately $2 to wash and approximately $2 to dry a load.

  They have two side-by-side fenced in dog parks.

  There were no trails to hike in the campground.

  Some fun things to do outside of the campground are Cadillac Ranch, Palo Duro Canyon state park (a must do - also stop at the Sad Monkey Mercantile for wine, beer, pizza) and Route 66 Motor Speedway (quite entertaining). The Texan Steak Ranch was delicious and a fun experience (reservations can be made on OpenTable). Also visit the Paramount Social Club (a speakeasy). This is located in the basement of the Barfield Hotel (pull the lever on the cigarette machine to access the secret door).

  Hackberry Campground — Palo Duro Canyon State Park

  incredible entrance

  What an incredible entrance! We unhooked our toad before heading into the canyon, and I'm glad we did. The drive was stunning, especially for us Floridians not used to such drops. Our site was beautifully wooded, though cell service was minimal down in the canyon love tester online. Definitely a must-visit if you're in the Texas panhandle.

  WOW, WHAT AN ENTRANCE

  Read some reviews where they stated they didn't unhook their toad upon heading to the canyon. Well I'm glad we did, being from Florida we don't have drops like this. What a drive. Loved our site, very wooded. Not much if any cell service as you are down in a canyon. This is a must stay if you're in the panhandle of Texas.

  Equestrian: at Paul Duro, State, Park (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good

  (71 yr olds in 17’ trailer.)

  Overall Rating: 3.5 this is a nice secluded area campsites do not seem that well defined to me. I don’t believe there are any restrooms here. A nice looking equestrian area (see pictures below) with water available for horses. Since I’m not an equestrian guy, check with visitor center for specifics. Looks pretty god, but I’d wish for bathrooms on site.

  Sharing Area with Prairie Dogs

  Hackberry in Palo Duro 3/24 Overall Rating: 4.25 Our site, # 10 is close to a 5 out of 5. Many sites would be less than that, in my opinion, because of the lack of privacy. See below Security: Yes.

Site Spacing: Most sites have good spacing . Pad surface: blacktop Reservations: You better make them well in advance. Campground Noise: Quiet Outside Road Noise: Sites 1-9 will have traffic noise from the park road. Through Traffic in campground: No Electric Hookup: Yes Sewer Hookup: No Dump Station: Yes Potable Water Available: At site Bathroom: Clean flush toilets Showers: Yes. Curtained Pull Throughs: Some Cell Service (AT&T): 1 to 2 bars. Short drive for 3 bars Setting: Deciduous forest in the canyon Recent Weather: 30s to upper 60s Insects: None Rig Size: Medium rigs. No large rigs are here Sites: 2,4,6,8 are in an open area. I don’t like these sites, but they do have nice rock formations to look at from these sites. 1-9 are closest to park road traffic of the sites in this campground. Some of the nicest sites.: 10( ours, nay be the best site here), 11 13. 16 18 30 32 31 33 Okay sites: 21 23

  Amarillo KOA

  Much better than first visit.

  This was our second visit to the Amarillo KOA. When we were here several years ago there wasn’t much but a dusty field. There are many improvements , including a pool and game room. The staff were extra nice. Last visit they offered a limo ride to the Big Tex Steak House, but that wasn’t available this trip.

  Nice place to stay

  The gal who checked us in was very friendly and nice. The site is very clean and has everything you need. The only thing that could be different is maintenance on the pool because it turned my hair blue/ green. I also saw 2 other people with blue hair. Yikes

  Friendly and Quiet

  I arrived late on a Saturday evening and they were full but the very nice young lady at check in let me squeeze my little TAXA TigerMoth into a van/tent spot. I was very tired and very happy that they could accommodate me. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The bathroom was clean. The store was well stocked. Except for an occasional jet taking off from the nearby airport it was nice and quiet. I slept great!

  Every kind of camping you could ever want...all with amazing views

  We've probably spent a few weeks camping at Merus over the last couple years.  The improvements during that time have been amazing...and are still coming!  We love the views from the boondocking sites on the rim as well as the peace of the more remote campsites down in the canyon.  The team that runs Merus bends over backwards to make each stay special.

  Big RV Park with Cement pads

  This park was on the west side of Amarillo, very near The Cadillac Ranch. This park is as close to 5 stars as I’ve camped in so far. Nice big pull thru spaces with all the full hook ups. Several laundry rooms dot the park. It looked like they had a swimming pool, but it was not open. The office had a few supplies. Ice and ice cream were my favorites. We only stayed one night, but I would definitely stay there again next time we come this way.

  Clean, well maintained, and great for a stop-over on a road trip!

  We live in Dallas and getting out of Texas is always the longest part of our trips. This campground is a great stop on the first (or last leg) of trips. Super clean, easy to use laundry, and right off of the interstate. The gym and pool look nice (but we haven't used them).

  Amarillo KOA

  Good location, great team

  The location is conveniently within a couple of miles of I-40 but far enough away that you don't have any interstate noise. There is an airport nearby, but we didn't find the noise frequent or obtrusive. The team that works here is very friendly and accommodating. The sites were level, the power was clean, and the water pressure was good. Laundry facilities (coin-operated) were clean and open 24 hours due to being behind a code-locked door, which is super convenient.

  We had planned to stop over for two nights to visit Palo Duro Canyon and other sites in the area, but ended up booking a third night due to some work needs and had no hesitation extending our stay because it was such a nice little campground. It's quite wide open, so there is not much privacy, but this is a KOA Journey, so it's designed to be more for people passing through rather than a destination. Remember that Amarillo is often quite windy, so if you're staying here when it's hot, you may not be able to use your awnings.

  Overall, though, a spot we'll put on our list for when we're passing through the area again.

  The Perfect Oasis

  We stayed her at the beginning of a trip, and I’m worried it may have spoiled us for every campground we’ll stay in. By far one of the nicest spots we’ve visited! We got here late, but they had left a map showing exactly how to get to our site. Each spot is paved, so no leveling needed. They have bath/laundry buildings spread throughout the site, which was incredibly convenient. Everything was spotless! They also had a pool, fitness center, etc. that we didn’t use. Not a lot of shade if that’s important to you, but really am A+ spot.

  Great little campground circle inside Palo Duro Canyon State Park.

  Sites have water and electric hook up with a dump station nearby.

  This state park is massive with many campgrounds to choose from. You really can’t go wrong with any of them. Some are great for RV’s, some are better for tent camping!

  Nice visitors center and camp store nearby.
