Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Midland, TX

Nice stop over. Gravel, level, all services work as expected. Staff was very friendly, bathrooms, showers& laundry are VERY clean and updated. Tokens& quarters are available at the office. Site#66, Long Pull through, easy in/out. Surprisingly strong internet. HEB, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes, lots of resupply options in the area. We would stay here again.

Only negative, which is no fault of the campground, is there is a LOT of construction in the area making entry a challenge with some scary U Turns in the city because our Garmin doesn’t register it. 

So for any traveling in the immediate future here’s some notes. Exit 134 is closed(2/11/22), take exit 135. Do NOT try any route that takes you on the entrance through town, that end of Midland Road is closed. Stay on the frontage road, go through the 4 way stop(the frontage road curves up& back), then continue on the frontage road(has some construction but is passable) to Midland road, take a right, the park will be on the left. The office is the 1st entrance and pretty clearly marked.

If you’re traveling in the next month or so, call ahead and they can give you the latest ‘best’ route... wish we had, newbie mistake.

Super bare bones RV park, just a dirt lot with rows of RV spots. It’s right next to an oil facility so there are a lot of workers that stay in this park. We stayed here because we needed showers and laundry and the price with Passport America was good atv$17.50. Even the full price of 35 is decent. We got FHU and a pull through site in the overnight area way in the back. 

There’s a little playground here, nice showers, and a nice laundry facility. I liked that the laundry had dedicated animal bedding/ oil rig machines so we could wash our dog bedding guilt free. Machines are coin operated, you can get quarters in the office. The office has a nice little store as well, with snacks and beer and basic supplies. There’s free wifi as well. 

Definitely not a fabulous place to come for fun, but if you’re racing through Texas like we were and need a place to stop for the night this is a great place for it. It’s nice and quiet because everyone is here just to work, it seems. There were many bees and flies clamoring to get into the RV when we stayed here in early December. Good cell reception for attv& verizon. Our poor dogs’ paws were covered in goat heads- we will be buying some dog boots!

Monahans was a blessing on our trip down to a different park near El Paso. It is in the Midland/Odessa area and should not be missed!!!! We stopped there in September and there were sunflowers EVERYWHERE! It was the most amazing site considering that there is sand covering most of the park! Be forewarned, sand gets into everything while your camping here so come prepared! And don’t miss out on the Sand Dune sledding!!!! It was such a treat! The hike up is a little hard (and if it’s super hot wear closed toe shoes so you don’t burn your feet!) but the ride down is a blast! High recommendation! And, the bathrooms were clean :)

Stayed here just a night but what a find! Free camping with hookups right in town. Fantastic AT&T service and plenty of space to walk the dog or play with the kids. Once you enter, you’ll see hookups on your right. These have electric and water. If you continue past the rest room, you’ll see another pull off on the right which has electric hookups only. The restroom was clean but only open during park hours. Noise settled down around 8pm and started back up around 7am. Definitely would recommend to anyone passing through. They do accept donations! Also would recommend swinging by Tin Buck Coffee, very close and very delicious!
