  Serendipity Bay RV Resort

  By the water

  Nicely equipped RV park right on water. Paid a few more dollars to have a pull thru site with FHU, cable & level concrete pad to pull on to. Nice big bathrooms with showers, laundry, pool, playground, gym room, small fenced dog run and large heated community room. No pets allowed in laundry/community room.

  KOA Port Lavaca Matagorda Bay

  Up and Coming!

  This New Holiday Campground is really getting off the ground. Staff is amazing and very welcoming. They have great amenities and the campsites are great sized. Facilities are clean and nice upgrades. Laundry on site and machines work really well and its open 24/7. They have a camp store that is really great and well stocked. They are very dog friendly with a dog park and daily trash pick up at your site. The kids loved the pool and us parents enjoyed the hot tub.

  Splashway Campground

  Splashway Campground Review

  This is a great campground with lots to do. It is awesome like geometry dash lite. We camped: the camp pitch was fairly level with electric hookup, water supply close to the tent and a fire pit for each pitch. There are also RV hookups as well. My kids totally enjoyed the laser tag, there is also a boating pond, fishing and live music on a Saturday night. The toilet block was the cleanest I have ever seen on a campsite- it was as clean as many hotels I have stayed in. One good advice for anyone staying in a campsite in Texas: compared to campsites in more temperate climes, Texas campsites are dusty and have as much dirt as grass on the pitches(and this site is no exception). Bring a tarp to put under your tent- it will be a lot easier to clean than the bottom of a sewn-in groundsheet when you get home.

  Serendipity Bay RV Resort

  Peaceful but sites too close together

  Very well-maintained and pet-friendly RV park with various amenities such as a pool, fishing pier, and dog park. Sites are very close together with little room to set up outside between RVs. Very little room to park vehicle once RV is in place and limited space to back in. Enjoyed the peaceful sunrises and sunsets and the constant breeze was a plus to keep the humidity and heat down. Take plenty of anti-mosquito repellent, as around mid-morning and late afternoon, the mosquitoes come out in force. A good location for those wishing to fish, but not sightseeing. The town has very few amenities and only a couple of restaurants and small stores.

  Matagorda Bay Nature and RV Park

  Colorado River Waterfront Camping

  Pros:

  • Quick and friendly check-in

  .• Large parking area that is rig-friendly for check-in.

  • Knowledgeable park personnel

  • Nature center with interactive exhibits and gift shop

  • Well maintained. Daily we saw the camp hosts working diligently, even hosing down and scrubbing bird poop from campsites.

  • Saturday morning 1.5 hour guided Gulf beach walk($5/pp) by Paige and Whitley. Paige knew her“stuff” as she was pelted continuously with questions and she never missed a beat!

  • Complimentary early Saturday morning coffee and pastries.

  • Along the Colorado River but you can hear ocean roar where the river meets the Gulf of Mexico.

  • Level concrete parking pad surrounded by grass. Back-ins and drive-thrus.

  • Two sewer hook-up outlets.

  • Large concrete picnic table.

  • Very nice and clean toilets/shower building in an elevated building accessible by a ramp. Must have code to enter.

  • Laundry facility in toilet/shower building with code entry.

  • Nice Colorado River fishing piers with fish cleaning tables with freshwater spigot and a super pier over the beach/ocean.

  • Primo sunsets

  • Bay City, 20-minute drive, for the closest Walmart, HEB and other retailers and restaurants.

  Cons:

  • LCRA $6 on-line reservation fee.

  • Absolutely no trees or vegetation between sites which equals NO SHADE and NO PRIVACY.

  • Ocean“breeze” made it impossible to deploy trailer awning.

  • No fire pits, but if you bring your own with a screen cover, you may have a fire, if you bring wood as no wood is sold at this park.

  • NOT A DARK SKY FRIENDLY CAMPGROUND due to way too many street lights throughout the campground, along the river bank and on the fishing piers.  This would be a 5 star campground if there was more darkness!

  • Complimentary LCRA WIFI was weak and unreliable.

  • When the ocean"breeze" died down and the humidity was up, we were attacked by swarms of mosquitos which required us to heavily apply repellent in mid-February

  • Not much in the town of Matagorda, basically a fishing village, and of those businesses, not many operating in mid-February.

  Splashway Campground

  Awesome park with tons of activities!

  Campsites are a little close together, but well equipped otherwise. Went for The water park, which is a blast, and campsites are within easy walking distance. There are a ton of other activities as well - putt-putt, laser tag, paddle boats, fishing, etc. also had curbside trash pickup which was nice.

  Would have been nice if there were some incentives for the water park for campers - early entrance, or discount, but that would be the only thing I would add.

  KOA Port Lavaca Matagorda Bay

  Find somewhere else to stay

  Find yourself somewhere else to stay! Beyond displeased with this place.$77/night for gravel parking and horrible road to get to this location. The place has potential, but I don't ever being worth what they're asking for short term stays. The kayak rentals are$25/hr and the water trikes are$45/hr. The pickleball court did not even have a net up. Grounds were not kept up. Mowing appeared to take place every 2 weeks and made mosquitos worse of problem because of it. The long term rentals were also complaining about the mowing not taking place enough. That seemed odd to us because there seemed to be plenty of staff on site to take care of those basic needs. We left early and they would not even adhere to their own 48 hr cancelation policy.

  KOA Port Lavaca Matagorda Bay

  Nice small RV Park

  Port Lavaca KOA Review Rating: 5 stars.  I recently spent a few days at the Port Lavaca KOA, and overall, it was a great experience with just a couple of minor drawbacks. 

  Location and Ambiance: 

  The KOA is situated in a remote and quiet area, perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The peaceful atmosphere made it easy to relax and unwind. I particularly enjoyed the serene surroundings; it's a fantastic spot for fishing, and I was able to catch some great fish right from the shore and pier. 

  Accommodations and Service: 

  One of the highlights of my stay was the generous upgrade to my site at no extra charge! The staff were friendly and accommodating, which definitely enhanced my experience. I appreciated their willingness to go the extra mile to ensure I had a pleasant stay. 

  Fishing: 

  If you're into fishing, this spot is a dream! The waters are teeming with fish, and I spent several enjoyable hours casting lines and reeling in my catches. It was great to have such easy access to fishing right from the campground. As a bonus a pod of dolphins visited the site in the evening adding to the atmosphere.  

  Drawbacks: 

  The only issues I encountered were related to the journey and the campsite itself. The road leading to the KOA was a bit rough in places, which can be a concern if you’re towing a trailer or driving a low-clearance vehicle. At the time the roads were being worked on, so maybe its better now.  Additionally, the sites along the water can feel a bit tight, making it difficult for larger RVs to maneuver comfortably. If you're planning to stay in one of these spots, be prepared for a close quarters experience. On the plus side I made friends with the neighbors easily.  Also I did choose to take the upgrade from a much bigger site, just to have the water in your back yard.    

  Final Thoughts: 

  Despite the minor inconveniences, I would recommend the Port Lavaca KOA to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with excellent fishing opportunities. The friendly service and beautiful surroundings more than make up for the rough road. I left feeling refreshed and eager to plan my next visit!
