    Traders Village RV Park

    Houston, Tx…..Nothing to get excited about

    It’s a large campground and spaces are very small. There’s a grass strip between camp sites. No picnic tables or grills. The office gave us a map and showed us how to get to our site but virtually impossible to understand. A very nice gentleman that stayed here took us to our site. He said they have no idea how to do directions and a buddy of his really messed up his camper by trolling around looking for their site. It’s very crowded and no room for awnings or for both campers side by side to put out awnings. There is a pool but it doesn’t look well maintained and there’s absolutely no chairs. Just the pool and it’s small. Laundry room is large. There’s no dog park or anywhere to walk your dog. Signs everywhere that say no pets, yet they are allowed. The flea market is only on the wknd. It’s close to a lot of restaurants and in a nice area.

    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. There is a convenient laundry facility on site as well as a clubhouse. Staff is very friendly. There are plenty of restaurants and quite a few are in walking distance. Big name stores are close by as well as Kemah Boardwalk with all the touristy stuff you want to do.

    Brazos Bend State Park Campground

    Getting back to nature

    We recently decided we wanted to spend more time outside and over the last year started accumulating camping supplies. When it was finally time to put them to use we chose Brazos Bend because it wasn't to far from the city and had a lot of hiking trails. This park is amazing! We saw around 15 alligators while hiking, and these are animals in the wild in their habitat (not like the gator farms where some dude is sticking his head in ones mouth). The have a nature center where park rangers give you info about the animals in the park and let you see snakes and baby alligators up close. The campsites have a fire pit, table and grill and for the most part lots of shade trees. All the hiking trails were accessible right from our site. Since we only camped overnight we didn't use any of the facilities but heard they were very clean. We ended up buying the texas state park pass and cannot wait to come back!

    Palms RV Park

    Don’t go!

    Incorrect wiring with the 50 amp service destroyed our fridges and microwave. Owner was verbally aggressive and denied all responsibility. He offered nothing. Muddy, loud road, loud party, no laundry, murky creepy pond, no place to walk a dog.


Guide to League City

Gulf Coast yurt camping near League City, Texas offers diverse accommodation options within a subtropical climate zone that receives around 50 inches of rainfall annually. The region sits at a low elevation of approximately 20 feet above sea level, making flooding a consideration during hurricane season from June through November. Coastal camping areas feature a mix of sandy beaches, salt marshes, and riparian woodlands that provide habitat for numerous bird species.

What to do

Wildlife viewing at Brazos Bend State Park: Located about 35 miles from League City, this park is renowned for its abundant alligator population. "If you go on a moderate temperature day (this is the key. If it is too hot or cold you won't see Gators) you can see literally dozens of massive alligators. We are talking 6 feet long and right on the pathway," notes Ashley C. from Brazos Bend State Park Campground.

Star gazing at the observatory: Brazos Bend features a unique amenity rare among state parks. "The best part of this park is the observatory, which has special events and regular weekend hours pretty much all year. It's absolutely worth staying up late for this!" shares Kim B.

Fishing at Fort Anahuac Park: This historical park offers fishing opportunities from both pier and shoreline. "Free camping on beautiful Trinity Bay. The bay is teeming with fish and beautiful birds. Locals fish here, so some traffic at night," reports Leigh D. from Fort Anahuac Park.

What campers like

Beach access and wildlife: The campsites at Galveston Island provide proximity to both beach and wildlife observation. "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," reports Jim P. from Galveston Island State Park Campground.

Historical connections: Some camping areas feature significant historical sites. "Check out the Historical plaques. Fort Anahuac Park has connections to The Alamo," advises N I. The area around League City includes several sites tied to Texas independence.

Variety of accommodations: From traditional camping to glamping yurts, the region offers diverse options. The Glamping Yurts on Crystal Beach provide an upscale alternative with six beachfront units for those seeking yurt camping near League City, Texas.

What you should know

Mosquito preparation: Gulf Coast camping often means dealing with insects, especially in warmer months. "The only downside? The mosquitoes!! Right at dusk they attacked with a vengenge. Be prepared for that!" warns Ashley C. about Galveston Island.

Weather considerations: The subtropical climate brings heat, humidity and occasional storms. "Arrived here just before a big thunderstorm rolled in. But it was super cool to watch as the lights of Houston illuminated the sky across the bay," shares Tucker B. about Fort Anahuac Park.

Permit requirements: Some parks require permits obtained from offsite locations. "To camp you must be fully self contained, there are no hookups. You may see power in the park but that is for use at festivals, etc. Not for campers. Obtain a camping permit from the Commissioner Office," explains N I. from Camp Mohawk County Park.

Tips for camping with families

Playground and recreation options: Several parks offer family-friendly amenities. "This park has pavilions, playgrounds, a pool, baseball and basketball courts. You can boat around the pond. They do have cabins to rent," notes Jeannette V. about Camp Mohawk County Park.

Educational opportunities: Take advantage of nature centers and learning activities. "There is a small nature centre where you can pet baby Gators and learn about them. Lots of pretty trails and look outs," shares Ashley C. about Brazos Bend.

Short trip potential: League City's proximity to Houston makes these parks accessible for quick getaways. "With such close proximity to Houston, it is a great weekend getaway!" explains Jim P. about Galveston Island State Park.

Tips from RVers

Level sites: Many campgrounds in the area provide concrete pads. "Nice level concrete pads. Very tightly packed together. Had a pool and clubhouse. Very nice clean bath/shower rooms and laundry facilities," reports Lawrence Robert T. from Brickhouse RV Resort.

Bayou access: Some RV parks offer water access directly from the property. "Pool is located next to Jarbo Bayou for birdwatching, kayaking and fishing," shares Pat M. about Brickhouse RV Resort, which offers premium yurt-style accommodations for those interested in yurt camping options near League City.

Park navigation: Layout can be confusing at some larger facilities. "The office gave us a map and showed us how to get to our site but virtually impossible to understand. A very nice gentleman that stayed here took us to our site," warns Douglas T. from Traders Village RV Park.
