"Monahans was so much fun. The dunes were tons of fun to climb up and play on and slide down."
"Monahans was way better than what I’ve heard about it online. I camped out there for Easter weekend and had an amazing time."
"No sewer but dump station is pretty close by with clear signs. There’s 6 spots for RVs to park. Enough space for big rigs and can park additional car on the side."
"Lovely lake with FREE three day parking, mini water play area, vault potties, playground and bike paths galore. There is some medium road noise that we found to be of no consequence"
TravelerWould of gotten 5 stars, not having wifi impeded work (mine is down)
GuideThis was perfect. Stars and meteors epic. Close to the highway but secluded. Of their 20 or so sites only 3 were taken. Electric and water hook ups, trash, friendly staff, clean bathrooms. Epically quiet - cool at night. $15 camp fee plus $4 per person unless you have a Texas park pass.
RangerNice fully gated park with full hook ups. No facilities yet. Big grassy area with gazebos.
GuideLoved this campsite! It was so cool to see all of the sand dunes. Right off the highway exit but far out where you can’t hear any traffic noise. Drinking water, electric, bath house with hot showers, and picnic tables available. Decent price with amenities. You can rent sand discs and sled down the mountains. Definitely recommended to check out for a night or two!
RangerIn the middle of the oil fields is Willow Draw Campground in Monahan Sandhills State Park. The campground is a beautiful drive through the winding sandy hills. They have a good amount of RV spots, with 50 amp, water, and a dump station on the way out. Limited pull through sites that seem to book quickly, but plenty of open back in sites that are nicely spaced. We booked site 22, a back in site up against a large dune hill. It was not easy to back a 55ft long rig into, probably one of the worst sites for a big rig, but we still managed. We just had to park our tow vehicle weird.
The dunes are awesome and beautiful. The park is incredibly clean and the rangers do great work patrolling and keeping the campsites safe and clean.
The price for camping is incredibly cheap, especially for what you're getting! The views from each site are breathtaking. All are within a short walk to the dunes. You can rent snow sleds and go sand boarding. Theres gorgeous wildflowers all over in the spring and summer and the sunsets are always 10/10 here. We heard the distant songs of coyotes and smelled the oil from the fields. A very unique experience and a must for RV camping checklists!
TravelerMonahans was way better than what I’ve heard about it online. I camped out there for Easter weekend and had an amazing time. Hiking up the dunes and watching the sunrise was definitely a once in a lifetime time experience. Even though the weather was pretty bad whenever I went, I would recommend to visit here at least once.
RangerThis park has all the bad qualities of a KOA. The sites are crammed together with barely enough room for a table between the rows. No fires here. Traffic as expected on a Friday was busy. The managers(owners?) line everybody up from sites 1 through 11 in a row. Close to 200 sites in this park and ALL the short term stays are in this row. I can see acres of sites across the park with many vacancies but they are not used. Theres a community center right across the street and a bar with a band making their presence heard till after dark, but not louder than my Youtube. The laundry has one(1) working wash machine. By 9:30 Saturday the whole row from my site NE(5-11) was empty again. Price is good as an Escapee,$30. The whole park is a typical high desert natural gravel parking lot with some trees, chain link fences and the pedestals demarcating the travel lanes which are plenty wide for the biggest RVs. I was offered site 11 on the very end so no one would billboard my view but I decided I would stick it out just one night with neighbor within spitting distance. I wonder(worry) that the rest of the weekend could be just as disruptive. Turns out I had the place mostly to myself the whole time I was there We camped at Tra-Park RV Park- Escapees Rainbow Park in a Fifth Wheel.
RangerI stayed here five nights in site number three, which is a pull through and a great view of the windmill and the day use parking lot.. In January, it gets pretty cold at night around freezing, but warmed up nicely every day. One day was so windy. It was rocking my fifth wheel like it's never rocked before. Yes, I live alone. It was very quiet with little noise from I 20. I did hear a train whistle, but then you can hear a train whistle just about everywhere in the entire state of Texas in the morning. I did see very small prints in the freshly blown sand. Watch out for rodents getting into your RV.
GuideNice city park right off I-20. Easy to get to and full hook ups for $16.75 a day. It only has 30amp but that’s ok. Really nice folks that were very pleasant. If you need a place to stop give it a try.
