Best RV Parks & Resorts near Matagorda, TX

Matagorda Bay Nature Park and Matagorda Bay Nature and RV Park offer full hookup sites for RVs along the Colorado River where it meets the Gulf of Mexico. Both parks provide concrete pads with 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections. Lighthouse RV Park in Bay City/Matagorda and Serendipity Bay RV Resort in Palacios also accommodate big rigs with full hookups. Spacing between sites varies significantly, with Serendipity Bay sites described as "very close together with little room to set up outside between RVs" and "very little room to park vehicle once RV is in place and limited space to back in."

Several RV parks in the Matagorda area remain open year-round, making them suitable for winter Texans and seasonal travelers. Most parks have limited shade due to the coastal location, with Matagorda Bay Nature Park having "absolutely no trees or vegetation between sites which equals NO SHADE and NO PRIVACY." Pull-through sites are available at select locations including 60 North RV Park, which features 93 sites with both 30-amp and 50-amp service. Dump stations and trash service are standard at most parks, though Wi-Fi quality varies considerably. Pet owners will find most parks accommodate animals, with Serendipity Bay RV Resort offering a fenced dog run. During peak fishing seasons, particularly in spring and fall, advance reservations are strongly recommended as waterfront sites fill quickly.

    Quintana Beach County Park

    Nice relaxing beach park

    We stayed here during the week in April, and the weather was perfect. A nice steady breeze kept the mosquitoes away, which we heard can be pretty bad. They have 30 amp FHU sites as well as 50 amp. Also have nice looking cabins for rent. A short walk over a nice boardwalk to the beach. Also half mile walk to the bird sanctuary, which is awesome for bird lovers. Free wifi, but the connection kept dropping. Great 5G connection with Verizon. Level, concrete pads. We required no leveling. Sites are spacious and patio is surrounded with well mowed grass. Campground is on a ship channel and it was fun watching the huge tankers go by. We really enjoyed this park and will return. No shade, so it would be quite hot in summer.

    Matagorda Bay Nature and RV Park

    Serendipity Bay RV Resort

    Peaceful but sites too close together

    Very well-maintained and pet-friendly RV park with various amenities such as a pool, fishing pier, and dog park. Sites are very close together with little room to set up outside between RVs. Very little room to park vehicle once RV is in place and limited space to back in. Enjoyed the peaceful sunrises and sunsets and the constant breeze was a plus to keep the humidity and heat down. Take plenty of anti-mosquito repellent, as around mid-morning and late afternoon, the mosquitoes come out in force. A good location for those wishing to fish, but not sightseeing. The town has very few amenities and only a couple of restaurants and small stores.

    The Breeze Hotel & RV Park

    Small, nice, beachfront !

    Very nice place. Only 14 spaces all with concrete pad, picnic table, and full hookups. Very clean and well maintained. Just steps from the beach with an outdoor shower to clean off the sand before you head home. Also a 6(?) room hotel on site. Staff is always available. The company who does the lawn care accidentally cut both my sewer hoses and The Breeze owners had them replaced in 5 minutes!

    Bayou Oaks RV Park

    Extended Stay Only

    I wanted to make a two day reservation for a business trip. The park has good reviews so I thought I would stay as it is close to my event.

    The online system would not work so I called and found they are for long term only.

    I am disappointed and did not see long term only on the website when I was researching parks.

    Serendipity Bay RV Resort

    By the water

    Nicely equipped RV park right on water. Paid a few more dollars to have a pull thru site with FHU, cable & level concrete pad to pull on to. Nice big bathrooms with showers, laundry, pool, playground, gym room, small fenced dog run and large heated community room. No pets allowed in laundry/community room.

    El Campo Lost Lagoon

    Best pool in Texas

    As noted in other reviews, this is a GREAT place to come to with our without kids. They are always hosting activities and there is a place to grab a bite to eat by the pool if you don't feel like going back to the rv to cook. If you have a toy hauler the 🎣 pond side is beautiful and quiet, just back in and let the party patio down!
