Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Fort Stockton, TX

Convenient midway stop between Houston & Tucson. Chicken fried steak in the Cafe was ultimate comfort food after 9 hrs on the road. They also have a dog park to let your pets off leash.

Fort Stockton RV Park is a clean, nice stop close to Highway 10. They have 30/50 amp FHU very spacious sites. There are pull-thru and back-in available. There is a nice pool and even a cafe on site that serves breakfast and dinner. Good home cooking! If you have a dog, they will love the large dog-run. This was a great stop while traveling.

Fort Stockton RV park was not what I was expecting for the money, but it served our purpose and was clean, the staff was friendly and the sites were fairly level. Not quite the desert oasis they advertised, but it was a one nighter, so it was fine. Downtown Fort Stockton had a lot of history and we enjoyed driving around and checking it out.

We stopped at Fort Stockton on our way West through Texas and we loved our stay. Easy hookups, late check-in available and efficient, quiet park, and a lovely place to spend the night. Woke up to bird sounds and owls with a lovely sunrise over the hills in West Texas.

Also easy to navigate to as it's directly off of the Interstate!

Nice campground just east of town of Fort Stockton. Lots of sites, looks like they can accommodate any of your camping needs. Propane, ice, small store. Roadrunner restaurant serving breakfast and dinner. Traveling i 10 east or west, this seems to be a nice stopping point. Fort Stockton has a Walmart, Loves Travel center, Flying J and more. The sites are pretty close to level , so not much to set up, full hookups, including cable and wifi, cell service is good. Desert views from campground.

If you RV enough, you will run into these places. The staff HATE travelers, and they hate their job. Fort Stockton RV is NOT one of these places!!! From the first contact with office staff while making reservations, to the check in, to the Maintance guy (Joe) stopping by. This place ROCKS! This is a full service park. 30/50 amp with full hookup and Breakfast every morning. Fort Stockton IS in the middle of no where, but if you find yourself half way between San Antonio and El Paso on I-10, make this your stop.

A great spot to spend the night traveling through west Texas. Spots were large and level. Park was clean. Cafe is a delicious bonus! Large dog park and pool. They deliver your propane to your site.

Big pull throughs, small diner and nice dog park.

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.

This was a nice clean park that is easy in and out. The owner was very friendly. The pool was very refreshing after driving and setting up. The sites are level but close together. There are several long term people here. This is a nice quiet place to stop in Fort Stockton.

This is a great little park. Even though it’s dirt. The staff is really welcoming and friendly. There’s lots to do and great dog parks. I would stay here again

Probably one of the better options for stopping over on your way through Texas. It’s a clean, well-maintained pile of dirt with good hookups and long sites. Felt very clean and very safe.

Close to Walmart, gas, etc though for the price if you’re only killing one night it might be worth just staying at Walmart which is well-lit and busy (I went late after getting set up at the site and I saw at least 10 TVs posting up for the night).

On our drive through also saw Fort Stockton RV which has a better view and a few trees.

Just to recommend the Roadrunner Cafe at Fort Stockton RV Park. We got the chicken fried steak and eggs with grits and toast, to go, they are fast service yet very tasty and hot. Which is extremely convenient for us folks passing through that don't want the mess of cleaning up after breakfast. Thank You Roadrunner for great service and food!

Former KOA with friendly staff. Has a pool and a huge dog park. Kids park is sub par. Close to I-10 so there is freeway noise. We would definitely stay here again for a one night stop.

Traveling with Class A 38' RV.

Good spot right off the highway on the east side of Fort Stockton with 30/50 amp spot. We pulled in just for a quick overnight on our way west. Easy pull thru spots and onsite cafe (Not open every day). Onsite Laundry and Showers. Swimming pool seemed maintained but was definitely cold. Playground for the kids was just a couple swings but it was something. Would stay again!

This is a nice place to linger while driving through Texas. While windy, it was pleasant.

The owners are very particular about things and have $50 fines for parking on the grass, leaving masks on the ground, not picking up after your per etc. Even after the threats, we still enjoyed our stay.

They have a pool, cafe, laundry rooms, and a dog park.

The Roadrunner Cafe was excellent and was a comforting meal after a long day on the road!

Nice clean park with pool, laundry/showers and large dog park. There is a café on site and provides home cooked meals at a reasonable price. Dump station and propane on site. All hookups are 30/50 amp electric with water and sewer. Many drive through sites to accommodate large rigs or rigs towing a vehicle. Free WiFi. There is also a tenting area with parking for tenters.

Park has plenty of large sites with full hookups. ATT and Verizon service were both good here. They do have a dog park and a restaurant on site as well. Nothing too fancy about this place, but it's a nice spot to spend the night if you are passing through. There is a walking trail just outside the park that has large areas of trash and abandoned vehicles, which is why I gave the 4 stars instead of 5. Other than that, everything was as expected.

We had been to this place a few times. They are very nice, clean facility, and when there is not COVID the restaurant is great. This is right off the highway an easy off and on. Few miles from any sort of stores which is also kind of nice. They have a great dog park.

The reason for the 3 stars is because every time we had stayed there it is transient all night long. Meaning there are no quiet hours. The wind is extreme at this park. I could not believe the wind. An important piece of information is every time I had come through this park it was winter. That may play a part in it. Most times were December thru February. Lastly, the sites are small. Literally you can hear and see everything your neighbor is doing. I had done this trip in RV and tent.

I typically rate campgrounds as they fit into 1 of 5 categories. This campground will be rated as an “along the way” stay — grounds that you seek out for a night or two as a place to simply stay the night along your journey to regroup and get some sleep. Ratings for this category are based on: Cost: 5 Overall grounds: 4 Utility of sites (hookups, level ground, accessibility): 5 Noise: 4 Reservation Process/Ease of Getting a Site: 4 Layout: 4 Customer Service: 5

What they say is true: this is an RV Park on top of a hill. We didn’t have high expectations knowing a Walmart is 2 miles away, but the views were actually quite nice! Staff are so, so friendly and helpful and the overnight stay is $30 (with GoodSam) for full hookups (many spaces are pull thru).

We thought it was really a nice spot to unhitch for the night. Fort Stockton doesn’t have a ton of draw but we were able to run a couple errands, do laundry and wash our tow vehicle in town!

The layout of the park is fairly standard. Gravel spaces, somewhat close together and no privacy in between, but they do have a small patio and picnic table. Hookups were reliable and easy to access.

The pool looked really nice though we didn’t use it. The wifi was very solid, though they ask you don’t use it to stream. The laundry room was pretty clean.

There is some road noise from I-10 as it passes immediately by the campgrounds, but we didn’t find it a nuisance overnight. Their website is pretty primitive so you have to call for reservations but they have a limit on how far out you book... I think it’s 45 days. A good stop as you make your crawl across the massive state of Texas.

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.

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!
