    Midway Pines RV Park

    GOOD !!

    Midway Pines RV Park is indeed a gem! The peaceful atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, and well-maintained facilities make it an ideal spot for a relaxing getaway. I totally understand why you feel so comfortable there. Speaking of relaxing, if you're looking to pass the time while you're enjoying the serene vibes, I highly recommend checking out the Traffic Rider app. It's a fun and immersive way to experience motorbike riding through beautiful landscapes, just like the ones around the park! Give it a try during your next visit—it's the perfect way to unwind!

    Tradinghouse Lake Park Camping

    Also called McLennan County Park

    It threw me off when I saw the name difference, but yes, McLennan County Park is the same place as Tradinghouse. I saw on a website that camping wasn't allowed, but this is said it is. I called the McLennan County Sheriff and they said, "Yeah, people camp there all the time." So that's awesome. Free to camp, too, and now I have a place to stay to ping pong between here and Whitney every 14 days.

    North Crest RV Park

    Very Nice Park Next to Interstate 35

    This is a very nice park that is located next to Interstate 35, so expect some highway noise. That doesn't bother us, and we had a lovely stay. Emily came quickly to meet us near the office after we called the number on the sign. She had us wait while she drove around to make sure we had a nicely shaded site with temperatures expected to be around 100°. Emily then guided us to the site and helped line up our RV for utilities and slide clearances. She was very friendly stayed to chat and make recommendations on things to do and places to eat. The park is well-kept and the sites all looked to have plenty of shade. Still, we were able to use our Starlink dish on the ground behind Site 138 with no drop-outs. Water pressure was good but a little lower one morning when the irrigation system was running. We will happily stay here again the next time we come through Waco!

    North Crest RV Park

    calm environment, quiet with helpful hosts

    We stayed at north Crest during a summer heat wave,   The well kept grounds provided natural shade to keep our camper cool.  The hosts were extremely helpful and gave us a quick call when they discovered we forgot some important equipment.  The bathhouse is amazing with two full baths in total privacy.  Can be used a family baths.

    Copperas Creek at Proctor Lake

    Copperas Creek COE

    Copperas Creek COE in Comanche, TX (Lake Proctor) Site #63 50 amp Full hook up Back-in site March 2024

    Beautiful park! The lady working the gate should have her picture in the dictionary under customer service. Very pleasant & welcoming!

    The site has lots of shade trees with a view of the lake (not lakeside). Sites are not on top of each other, but no type of barrier between sites. Water had a terrible smell.

    Despite it being the beginning of spring break in Texas & the amount of people here, it is fairly quiet.

    If you’re camping with others, there are 3 double RV sites on this end of the park.

    Would definitely come back here again. — at Copperas Creek Park.

    Gypsy Moon Hideaway RV Park

    Laid back

    If you like a laid back approach to camping, this place is it.  They advertise "farm fresh eggs" at the bait shop, and though we didn't partake, we know they were serious because of the chickens that were roaming the grounds.  One of them inspected the storage bay of my travel trailer while I was setting up!  We arrived about 4 p.m., and there was no one around to check in with, I think because of a family emergency of some sort.  So I just picked one of the open RV lots and backed in.  When I did check in later with Amy, she said "no problem" with the lot I picked.  Like I say, "laid back"!

    Free parking on a lake with bathroom and tables

    Overall good free spot right on the water. We weren’t quite level on the road but nice to have bathrooms with running water and picnic tables right outside. Sign said you can stay for multiple nights.

    Beautiful in Spring

    I thought the wildflowers were the greatest feature, and then we caught sight of an angelic band of pelicans just overhead on a migratory flight - a very moving sight I will never forget.

    Family & adult friendly

    We screwed up and booked a different spot and our camper was too long. Oakdale was able to accommodate us on short notice. The staff was friendly and informative. Our kids had a great time in the expansive pool and enjoyed the snow cone stand across the street. The adult enjoyed the well-stocked pool bar!

    Dodge City RV Park

    Good spot for camping

    Been there last year during out trip to Texas( mainly hiking in Britton park and a few other local trail spots and camped at Dodge City RV park)

    Pros: good clean spots for camping, everything you might need is pretty close
    Didn't try RV spots, but those looked really nice too.

    Cons: Didn't find any.

    If you gonna be visiting TX during June-July for trailing and camping - my advice is: make sure to get a pair of comfy shoes(my go-to are Brooks men's running shoes like those https://rununited.com/mens-footwear/) - trails are pretty rough and it's extremely hot and humid near bodies of water... Gotta dry your shoes every few hours

    Beautiful Park

    I have to admit I was a bit worried about the location due to the interstate being so close but it didn’t bother us a bit! The park is immaculate from the roads to the landscaping. You can tell Emily and her father really take pride in making it a park you will definitely visit again and again!

    Fantastic stay!

    We met Emily and her dad, both are really nice and accommodating. They even left a Christmas present on our door for us. The spots are huge and the park is well maintained and quiet. We will definitely stay again.
