    Hilltop RV Park

    Welcoming & Convenient

    Hilltop RV was super homey and easy to reserve. I was able to make a same day reservation and was welcomed with a cute goodie bag and welcoming staff. Lots of amenities as well.

    Fort Stockton RV Park

    Rustic but serviceable

    Site all gravel or grass. Spotting your spot number at night is a walking job. On-site Cafe looks like it closed for the foreseeable future. No frills, but everything you need for a quick rv stop. Nothing really nearby.

    Best RV park

    Best little RV park in Texas with all of your amenities! You receive 10% off with Good Sam discount , bringing your total to $41 per night for a 30 foot class C motorhome 1 per night. Also the most friendliest office lady, that offered us fresh eggs and gave us a little goodie bag.

    Saddleback Mountain RV Park

    Worked for an Overnighter

    There was no problem finding this campground(CG) as it is right off I-10 adjacent to a Valero gas station. We had paid online, and per the emailed instructions, we went and chose an empty site. After driving through and looking at sites that didn’t have trees that would interfere with our slide-outs, we went into pull-through site 29 with FHUs. As we were only staying overnight, we did not use water and sewer. The CG’s sites are all pull-throughs with FHUs. About 1/4 of the sites are transient workers or full-timers. When we were here towards the end of January, there were plenty of sites to choose from. Our site was plenty long enough for our 40’ 5th wheel and F450. This is a basic CG with no internet, but they have a laundry room on the back of the Saddleback Steakhouse and Bar that has seen better days. There’s also an unmanned office with instructions and a drop box for campers without a reservation. There were plenty of sites that have clear shots to the sky for satellite. We got 3 bars on Verizon. We should have used our sound machine as there’s a lot of road noise from I-10. There’s no formal dog park, but there is plenty of room to walk your dog. Other than the price, one of the reasons we stayed here was the raving reviews by other campers on the Saddleback Steakhouse and Saloon, especially their ribeyes. Boy, were we disappointed. We were expecting a big Texas-style steak. The steak was maybe 1/4 inch thick, and the hand-cut fries were greasy. This may be the only place in the US that still allows smoking inside. They live by their own rules here. On the bright side, this dive-type bar was interesting and somewhat entertaining depending on your views as this establishment is clearly pro-Trump and anti-Biden.

    Nice but close neighbors

    Overall, this is a very nice clean place to stay. It was originally a KOA but is now privately owned. It does have nice facility showers brought back it is that the site are very close to each other.

    No frills but clean and quiet

    Cute little park. All spaces are large and pull throughs. Restrooms are better than most. Park is a little small for large dogs but still okay. Pattern gravel but very level. Both 30 and 50 amp and good water pressure

    Saddleback Mountain RV Park

    Depends on your needs, great on-the-road stop

    We actually stayed here for a week, part of relocating from Texas over to the desert for the winter. 

    The Pros:

    • Easy in and out.  You can actually just go right to the back of the gas station there and cut left, big entrance area, though going to the right of the Saloon and restaurant does put you going the right way for....

    • Large, long spots.  Now, some have a cone in them, I'd guess some problem with one of the three hookups, but I don't know.  Some of them are also overgrown.

    • Plenty of room, really.  This isn't a place people stay for long, being next to the highway, I would guess.  So when you're trying to "reserve" a spot on the phone, it'll pretty much be "just come on".

    • During our stay we had reliable power and water, no issues.  Decent water pressure as well.  We did hit some freezing overnights so I just filled the tanks and we ran off that until we left.  I didn't actually hook up to the sewer at all.

    • The onsite bar and restaurant isn't bad.

    The Cons:

    • Not really a problem for me, but you ARE next to a truck stop and a highway, but honestly, I didn't hear them really at all during the night unless I was listening for it.

    • There was someone with loose dogs.  As a former traveling-with-dog RVer, that annoys me to a VERY great deal.  I don't know your dog, mine always seemed to get attacked.  Keep your dog on a leash, please.

    • Again, not a problem for me, but the bar/restaurant is very right wing Republican.    F*** Biden flags, Trump Won, etc.  Just warning you.  The patrons and staff didn't say or do anything untoward, but if this kind of stuff bothers you and you're easily offended, just be aware.

    • It took me second time to realize that my chicken fried steak wasn't just awesomely tender, but rather I'm pretty sure it was hamburger.  The batter and gravy was good, really, all the food was good.  (Though we did feel a little ripped off at 5 or 6 small onion rings for $6.99.)   There is a great Mexican restaurant in town (as much as there is any town to Balmorhea), too, be sure to check hours and such.  It's called La Cueva de Oso.

    No thrills a camping

    We stayed here two nights while we swam in balmorhea. We pulled in late at night and we just placed $20 in the office , picked a spot and slept. The next day we swam all day and returned to a different spot. Same easy process, leave $20 in the office with your spit number. All spots are open and have full hook ups. Some are overgrown with weeds and the water isn’t accessible so choose wisely. Gravel and level spots, next to a gas station and diner.

    Good option for quick stay

    This is a no frills campsite, but it met our basic requirements for an overnight stay. We arrived at 8 pm on a Friday and decided to eat at the on-site restaurant/ bar. Despite the rustic outdoor appearance, the food was homemade and quite tasty. I’d have no issue staying here again.

    Rustic but Awesome

    We pre booked our stay (paid on line). Received an email and text on the day we arrived. It’s an open RV park which is nice as we chose our spot. Closest to the mountains (although they are in the distance). Smell of Creosote this morning was amazing. Only here for a night but loved this site. Very basic no pool or hot tub or even a shuffle board court but definitely fit the bill. Restaurant next door circle bar and saloon. Great bar and food is great and reasonable. Highly recommend a stay here if you like basics and friendly people.

    Very friendly staff

    We changed our plans for travel and called the day of to book, the staff was incredibly friendly, made sure I knew the exit, showed us our spot and gave the kids a goodie bag. Very clean, beautiful views and the decorations are cute. 10/10 recommend to anyone visiting fort Stockton.

    Nice clean park for a night.

    Friendly staff. Clean restrooms and showers. Water and electric. Not the Hillside RV park. Don't confuse the two.

    Circle B RV Park

    Neglected

    First, the plus side: inexpensive, neighborhood seems friendly, close to town.  Things to consider: very neglected looking with weeds, trash, and unused stuff just sitting around; showers and bath house inoperable; no manager on site so resident yelling, slamming doors, banging on stuff at all hours of the night is never addressed; free range dogs, cats, even a goat!  With only a little work, it could certainly attract many from the Walmart lot!

    Good Price point Option

    Overall good experience. Plenty of vacancy - no reservations needed. $20 cash in an envelope gets you full hookups (50/30 amp - powerpoles in good shape), water (good quality/ pressure), and sewage. No picnic tables or bbq/fire. Nice access to store, gas, ice, and steakhouse/bar (I didn't visit). Nice landscape, but lots of goatheads (thorns) that get in your dog's paws. Quiet nights, despite popular truckstop adjacent.

    Easy access

    Nice place to stop for the night. Super easy to access right off the I10. Literally on a hilltop lol. Really clean and super roomy.

    Great overnight spot!

    $20 for FHU. All utilities worked great. Campground has been beautifully landscaped with various cacti. Despite being adjacent to the truck stop and interstate, there was surprisingly little noise. They even taken a large plot of land next to the campground and filled it with various native plants and cacti with a nice walking trail through it (perfect to stretch your legs after a long drive). We definitely would stay here again when passing through.

    I-10 RV Park

    Super clean, wide level pads

    One of the best RV parks you can find on the I 10 going through West Texas . This wonderful location is just enough away from the highway to get away from noise. It is spotlessly clean and well organized. Spots are wide, big, and Clean. With level gravel pads and hookup’s that look like new. Hosts are friendly and helpful!
