What to do
Fishing opportunities: The lake at Boomtown USA RV Resort offers stocked fishing with a dedicated swimming area. "Huge lake to enjoy," notes Brian C., while Tori K. mentions "The lake has really great fishing and there is a small swimming/beach area. The beach does have a lot of bees or wasps of some sort that are living in the sand so you have to wear shoes until you get in the water."
Explore nearby attractions: Multiple state parks and natural areas within 30-45 minutes of Lumberton. "Tyrell Park features a golf course, horseback riding, botanical gardens, and scenic boardwalks approximately five miles from the RV park," according to Jessica P. who stayed at End of the Road RV Park.
Recreation facilities: Many parks offer on-site activities. Vinton RV Park features "a massive clubhouse with billiards, shuffleboard, a cozy reading nook, a full kitchen, restrooms and plenty of seating for events or parties," according to one reviewer who appreciated the amenities included in the monthly rate.

Concrete pads: Most parks feature level, paved sites. "Sites are all full hook-up, back-in concrete 60' x 20' leaving room for us to park our tow car," notes Tom D. about Grand Pines of Texas RV Resort.
Pool and spa access: Multiple parks offer swimming facilities. At Boomtown USA RV Resort, "Pool and jacuzzi area is wonderful. Very well maintained," according to Brian C. The amenities are particularly welcome during hot summer months when temperatures regularly exceed 90°F.

What you should know
Highway proximity: Many parks are located near major highways. At Gulf Coast RV Resort, reviewers note "Easy access from the interstate but not noisy," though experiences vary as another camper mentioned, "RIGHT on I-10 and the highway noise is bad."
Weather considerations: The region experiences heavy rainfall and occasional flooding. After rain at Gulf Coast RV Resort, one visitor reported, "The sites are very close together in the side we were staying at. More like a big parking lot. It had rained and it was rather flooded!"
Cell service and internet: Coverage varies significantly between carriers. At Rainbow's End RV Park, "if you have Tmobile cel phones or hotspots, this is not the RV park for you. We barely had cel phone reception, and our mobile hotspot was all but useless. Verizon works well here."
Tips for camping with families
Pool access timing: Swimming facilities typically operate seasonally. "There is a pool which is open in summer, but we've never used it," notes one reviewer at Rainbow's End RV Park, suggesting families check availability before planning water activities.
Beach area considerations: Natural swimming areas require preparation. At Boomtown USA RV Resort, the lake's beach area has "a lot of bees or wasps of some sort that are living in the sand so you have to wear shoes until you get in the water."
Recreational options: Check for kid-friendly amenities. "Vinton RV Park is fantastic! The spacious concrete pads made parking easy, and the full hookups were a big plus. We enjoyed the refreshing pool and the fun rec and game rooms," writes Abby F. about facilities at Vinton RV Park.
Tips from RVers
Sewer connection placement: At some parks, hookup locations require planning. At Hidden Lake RV Park, the sewer connections may require longer hoses due to placement, while George L. notes "Transit sites are level concrete pads."
Site selection for noise reduction: Choose sites away from highways where possible. Kelly N. shared about Boomtown USA RV Resort: "Nice park but RIGHT on I-10 and the highway noise is bad... Sites are large, concrete, with picnic tables and they are level."
Laundry facilities: Several parks offer free laundry services. At Vinton RV Park, "Free laundry, Wi-Fi, a pool, and an awesome rec room everything you need for a comfortable stay," according to Sheila L., making it convenient for longer stays.
