    Brickhouse RV Resort and Galveston Island State Park Campground house upscale glamping accommodations within an hour's drive of La Porte, featuring climate-controlled canvas structures with proper beds and linens. The Palms RV Park offers glamping options with electric hookups and modern bathroom facilities, while Crystal Beach provides six beachfront yurt rentals along the Gulf coastline. These glamping sites include picnic tables, showers, and some offer full bathroom facilities with running water. For those seeking more rustic luxury, Camp Mohawk County Park maintains glamping cabins amid 55 acres of woodland trails and stocked fishing ponds. All locations provide significantly more comfort than traditional camping with amenities like electricity, furnished interiors, and climate control systems. "This is a newer resort with concrete pads and level sites. The resort is clean and well kept. Pool is located next to Jarbo Bayou for birdwatching, kayaking and fishing," noted one visitor about Brickhouse.

    Fort Anahuac Park combines waterfront glamping with historical significance, positioned along Trinity Bay with fishing piers and wildlife viewing opportunities. Glamping Yurts on Crystal Beach provides direct beach access with six specialized yurts where guests can enjoy beach activities right outside their accommodation. Many glamping sites in the region feature nearby water recreation including kayaking, fishing, and swimming, particularly at Galveston Island where private beach access comes standard with glamping reservations. Birdwatching opportunities abound at several locations, with Fort Anahuac Park offering glimpses of coastal bird species. One guest shared, "We couldn't figure out the permit everyone talks about. Tried calling and emailing. Anyway pulled in for the night, seems like a decent safe spot. Plenty of other campers. Power outlets everywhere." Most glamping accommodations require advance reservations, with availability throughout the year though summer months book quickly. Winter glamping offers fewer crowds but comfortable experiences with properly insulated accommodation options.

      Brickhouse RV Resort

      Park manager is not friendly to guests

      I do not recommend staying here. I was bothered by park manager repeatedly. When I stayed here manager was nosy. He only cares about his reputation and how his park looks, he does not like kids and sent out messages to the people staying here recommending them to call Child Protective services if they see any kids playing outside. Bathrooms were frequently dirty, especially on Saturday and Sunday. I am never staying here again. I stayed with my wife and four children. This park is NOT family friendly. We would get mass text messages detailing various different authorities to call to complain about things as simple as children playing outside. The policing by the manager and Clear Lake Shores/Kemah was very excessive. Police would stop at people's homes at midnight to ask for directions to calls where guests should not be bothered by police absent involvement in the call. I saw this happen multiple times. A friend of mine who used to stay out in the park alleged she was assaulted and reported it and retaliation/harassment twice. The manager did not want to assist her by making the man leave or provide video evidence to have the man prosecuted for making it appear he was going to ram her ebike coming up the driveway. There is a convicted sex offender in the park. There were recently criminals staying in the cabins on and off as they do not do background checks. I do not reside in the park anymore. Lee is only concerned about maintaining a resort-style image and his own reputation and ignored significant guest safety concerns, allowing people to be touched against their will and harassed with slurs and name calling. Someone should not be called a B or F by another guest and then that harassment is ignored by management. Management should be addressing those situations. They need to address the steel rebar and unsafe wood hand railing on the docks before some gets seriously injured by the metal rods sticking out of the shore line. A child is going to fall off that pier and there will be a lawsuit to follow if that happens. One guests was even firing a projectile weapon out of his cabin door. The person later disappeared. I observed it when I was taking trash out. The park is not lgbtq friendly. If you take concerns about someone calling you by homophobic slurs to the park manager, the park manager will not get involved or assist you in preventing further anti-gay or lesbian insults being spoken against you by other ill spirited guests. I saw this happen to someone. It was mostly Republicans and rich people passing through. Edit: after I left the manager asked another guest that is staying there where I live. The manager appears to be trying to get at me personally since I have left 2 reviews for his park staying my experience.

      Brazos Bend State Park Campground

      Beautiful park just outside of Houston

      We have made day trips to this park for years, but haven’t taken a few nights and camped here - we have been missing out! Gorgeous park with miles and miles of hiking trails. Tons of wildlife - and not just the Alligators. Sites were level and spacious and very well maintained. Will be back again for sure!

      Close to the beach

      I was in a beach site with no hookups. Site was level and paved. But no bathrooms near by. Beach is a short walk. Wind was constant and it rained often. Staff was nice and was inexpensive for an out of stater.

      Galveston Island State Park Campground

      Very large RV Pads, short walk to sunrise!

      The pad had 50 Amp and Water, there is a dump station as you come in or leave. The pictures on their website don’t show how large and nicely paved the area is. The table is under a large covering and you have plenty of space to enjoy the ocean breeze!
      The beach is very nice and quiet (in February) and we enjoyed wonderful sunrises and walking/beach combing. There were a few mosquitos at dusk…but the seems to disappear. The walkway to beach is very smooth and accessible. There are other RV parks in the area that you have to cross the road to get to the beach, we appreciated that it was on the beach! Bath houses were nice. Seemed pretty well kept and recently built. (A couple years maybe?)

      Very well maintained park with easy access and tons to do

      Campsites are concrete, level, with a very nice shelter. We stayed on the beach side and easy access to the beach from pretty much any site. Restrooms are clean and well maintained all park. Rangers were very friendly and helpful. With such close proximity to Houston, it is a great weekend getaway!

      Brazos Bend State Park Campground

      Excellent campground.

      This is an excellent campground. In my opinion, the camper pads are really nice. Long and wide can accommodate small or large campers and motorhomes. They are fire rings picnic tables. There's firewood for sale, lots of wildlife sightings. I got 5G network with T-MOBILE service and excellent television reception. The bathrooms and showers are really clean.

      Nice Beachside Park

      Everything seems updated and well maintained with a covered pavilion at each site and beach access close by.

    Guide to La Porte

    Glamping accommodations near La Porte, Texas offer an elevated outdoor experience amid the Gulf Coast's subtropical climate. With average summer temperatures around 90°F and mild winters rarely dipping below 45°F, the region supports year-round camping opportunities. Visitors should note that coastal humidity creates mosquito conditions during warmer months, particularly near the wetland areas surrounding Trinity Bay.

    What to do

    Fishing opportunities: Fort Anahuac Park provides access to Trinity Bay fishing. "The bay is teeming with fish and beautiful birds. Locals fish here, so some traffic at night. Groceries and pizza place nearby," notes a camper at Fort Anahuac Park.

    Observatory stargazing: Brazos Bend State Park features a professional observatory with regular weekend hours. "The best part though is the observatory. There's always plenty of stargazers up there that love to share their equipment, you can also pay for the big telescopes," explains a visitor at Brazos Bend State Park Campground.

    Nature trail exploration: Camp Mohawk County Park offers 55 acres of woodland trails for hiking. "Camp Mohawk is a great get away close to home for many of us.

    What campers like

    Historical sites: Fort Anahuac Park combines yurt camping with Texas history lessons. "Wow! So I had no idea this place was camper friendly. This place is awesome! I absolutely love the history of the area and think the area should be very proud of the display here!" remarks a visitor.

We stayed on the beach side and easy access to the beach from pretty much any site. Restrooms are clean and well maintained all park," notes a reviewer.

    What you should know

    Permit requirements: Some sites require advance permits that can be confusing to obtain. At Fort Anahuac Park, "We couldn't figure out the permit everyone talks about. Tried calling and emailing. Anyway pulled in for the night, seems like a decent safe spot. Plenty of other campers. Power outlets everywhere."

    Seasonal considerations: Houston-area glamping and yurt rentals experience high demand during spring and fall months. "Beach side is very nice since being remodeled. Great back in sites. Nice electrical and water service towers at sites. Great walking paths. Electric and water sites; nice dump station," says a visitor about Galveston Island State Park.

    Insect preparation: Coastal yurt camping near La Porte requires mosquito protection. "If you go in the summer you need to watch out for mosquitoes. The observatory is amazing on clear nights," warns a visitor at Camp Mohawk County Park.

    Tips for camping with families

    Playground facilities: Many campgrounds offer family-focused amenities. "This park has pavilions, playgrounds, a pool, baseball and basketball courts. You can boat around the pond. They do have cabins to rent," explains a visitor at Camp Mohawk County Park.

    Educational opportunities: Plan visits to nature centers with child-friendly exhibits. "Brazos Bend is known as the Alligator Park…and for good reason! There is a small nature centre where you can pet baby Gators and learn about them. Lots of pretty trails and look outs," shares a camper.

    Water activities: Choose yurt camping locations with safe swimming options. "The beachside campsites offer electric hookups and shaded picnic tables that are great for tent and RV camping! The beach itself is clean/not littered and is perfect for skim boarding!" notes a visitor at Galveston Island State Park Campground.
