TravelerHords Creek COE in Coleman, TX Site #73 50 amp Full hook up Pull through site March 2024
In the last 23 days, we’ve stayed in 6 parks, I have to say that this is my favorite park so far.
The site is roomy with lots of shade trees with a lakefront view (even though the lake is WAY down). Sites are not on top of each other.
There were a few people here when we arrived, but never heard a peep out of them.
The peace & quiet that we’ve experienced in this park is beyond words. Relaxation at its best!
When we come back, we’ll either get the same site, or #76. — at Hords Creek Lake- Lakeside Park.
TravelerHords Creek COE in Coleman, TX Site #75 50 amp Full hook up Pull through site April 12-16, 2024
The site was roomy with lots of shade trees. Our door faced the west & trees were not close enough to our RV to block out the evening sun. We did have a lakefront view, but the lake is WAY down.
This loop was full over the weekend, but sites are spaced just far enough apart that you can still enjoy the peace & quiet.
If I had a choice of any spot in the park, it would be #73.
Will definitely be back. — at Hords Creek Lake.
LegendGeneral: Approximately 140 sites (plus 12 cabins) spread out all around Hords Creek Lake in two areas: Lakeside Park and Flat Rock Park. According to the map, two of the four gatehouses are closed – not sure if this is a permanent closure (and don’t know if these campsites are also closed). There was no attendant at the gate when we arrived.
Site Quality: Paved/gravel driveways, some are pull-through, some have sewer hookups, and some have 50 amp electric. A bonus for us that we did not know when we reserved is that several sites have screened-in shelters with electricity and a generous-sized concrete picnic table. There are many trees throughout the campground and although we didn’t need the shade when we were there, I imagine it would be nice during the hot summer. There is also a fire ring but there was a strict fire ban when we were there (In fact, there was a large wildfire about 8 miles from the campground and we had been warned to stay ready to evacuate if the wind changed direction).
Bathhouse: There seem to be more than adequate bathhouses located throughout, however, the one closest to our site was small and somewhat inadequate: one shower, one sink, and two toilets. If the campground was completely full, this may pose a problem. There was no hot water, even in the shower and the shower door did not have a latch for privacy. Also, no hooks or shelves, or soap dispensers. Make sure you bring a towel if you do not want to use the air dryer.
Activities/Amenities: There are several boat ramps, fishing docks, and swimming areas at different points of the lake. There was a nice, covered playground in the Lakeside Park campground. It is a bit of a hike to the dumpsters.
This was an overnight stay for us as we continued to travel through Texas, but we appreciated some of the amenities offered at this campground
TravelerFairly new park on top of hill. Stayed long term so very familiar with park. Next to I-20 so there’s that. Good pool, dog park, laundromat with pay per load on machines-card. Hard Gravel parking- most sites not completely level, astroturf yard. Roads are asphalt paved so great for walks. Did not use showers. Good sewer, water pressure and 50/30 amp available-included for overnight. Good Spots just for overnight folks-Pull through. Backin long term-very good- best in area for electric kWh price. Good long term rent price. First A.I. mega center being built in the area so wait list long term.
ScoutThere are coyotes, so you really need to keep an eye on your pets.
TravelerSouth Padre Island Beach has approximately 60 miles of primitive beach camping. This area can be accessed from Beach Access #5 and Beach Access #6 and you can camp anywhere north. During the on season access by vehicle is $12 to enter, regardless of the length of stay, though camping cannot exceed 14 days. Offseason is free (from autumn until spring break). During the off season north of access 6 is recommended 4x4 only. Fires, pets, and fishing are allowed, but keep in mind several miles of beach have a road on the other wide of the dunes so keep an eye on pets and children. There are also no amenities and it is recommended to be aware of tides and weather conditions as it can get quite windy on the beach.
LegendWonderful evening site with pull through sites next to river and park. We pulled in with our 25 ft trailer at 830 pm and had no problem. We hooked electric and were good for nigh. Bath house with shower was great. The park was a delight! One mile path around with nice playground for children. Rooster and cats in park.
GuideRight off I-20 in Abilene. A variety of pull through and back-in full hookup sites. Sites are sand/gravel with an artificial grass patch for each. Laundry and bath sites are new clean and modern. Nice pool and fire pit area next to the camp store. There is some road noise from I 20, sites farthest away from the office are farthest from the highway. The park sits on a high ridge providing beautiful west Texas sunsets.
GuideThis Texas state park was really nice, lots of shade for my dog and lots of friendly people. During the day lots of squirrels running around and at night raccoons and armadillos. The park is kept up with its cleanliness. Also there is restrooms and showers here.
