Best RV Parks & Resorts near Port Aransas, TX

261 Reviews

Port Aransas offers several RV parks with full hookup sites for travelers exploring the Texas Gulf Coast. Gulf Waters Beach Front RV Resort provides concrete pads with 50-amp electrical service, sewer, and water hookups at individually owned sites. "Gulf Waters Beach Front RV Resort grounds are gorgeous and very well maintained. There is a pool, hot tub, showers and gorgeous private beach," noted one camper who stayed in a 34-foot travel trailer. Pioneer Beach Resort and Port A RV Resort both accommodate large rigs with spacious pull-through sites, though spacing between units varies by location. On The Beach RV Park features sites approximately 300 yards from the water but has tighter access to some pads, making maneuvering challenging for larger motorhomes.

Most Port Aransas RV parks operate year-round, though winter months attract long-term visitors seeking warmer coastal temperatures. Reservations are strongly recommended during spring break and summer vacation periods when occupancy reaches capacity. Road access generally involves crossing to Mustang Island via ferry or driving Highway 361, with most parks offering paved entrances suitable for large motorhomes. Dump stations are available at several parks including Coastal Hideaway RV Park and Port A RV Resort. While alcohol is permitted at most locations, fires are prohibited at several parks including Gulf Waters Beach Front RV Resort. A recent visitor mentioned, "We ended up staying 3 months. December, January and February. Love every minute of it." Pet policies vary, with most parks allowing pets but implementing specific restrictions regarding breed, size, and designated walking areas.

    Goose Island State Park Campground

    Right on the Bay

    We stayed 14 nights in one of the Bay sites. Really enjoyed the view and sunsets. We watched Dolphins right in front of us every day. Pros: Bayfront site's view, easy in and out, easy set up, fishing, close to stores and restaurants, nice pavillion with picnic table at each site, Nice dock to fish off of and can fish right at your site. Clean restrooms. Pet friendly with 6ft leash rule. Cons: TTs and 5th wheels are supposed to back in. This causes the pavillion to be on the wrong side. You open your door to your neighbors pavillion. Motorhomes, Cs & Bs can pull in so the pavillion is on the correct side however the W&E hookups are then on the wrong side. (They are working to fix this issue) Wooded section is not big rig friendly. Low hanging branches and many sites difficult to back in to. (We didn't stay in this section, we drove through without 5th wheel) The air boats. There are 3-5 different ones that come in and out ALL day every day starting around 6:30am. They are so loud they vibrate the campers.

    NAS RV Park Corpus Christi

    Nice Mil CG just prepare for stay

    This is our 2nd time staying here.
    This park is aka Shields. Park has 2 sections. Sect A has grass sites. Sect B has concrete pads and a separate area for tents. Each section has a laundry room and shower building. We stayed in B. Sites are wide and level and have full hookups with 30/50 amp. Good water pressure. Sites are all back ins, Big rig friendly and easy to set up. No matter where you park there is a nice view of the Bay.
    I'd give it a 5 star rating but there are a few items that need to be fixed or prepared for. 1st the roads really need to be repaired. Potholes are horrible in some areas. 2nd the picnic tables are so rusted through that many are unusable. 3rd the goat heads or grass burrs are a nightmare especially if you step on one in the middle of the night. Ouch!! LOL If you have dogs (we do) they absolutely can't run in the grass. We bought our pups doggy boots which help some. And this time we brought our leaf blower to blow them off the concrete pad. 4th the winds here can reach 60 mph. Just prepare for it by never leaving awnings out and when bad bring slides in so awning toppers don't get ripped off. (It happened to our neighbors last year) Ants, there are tons of them. I use citronella spray around our leveling gear and tires to deter them from living with us. Lastly if you don't want salt on your rigs don't come here. There are times when its so thick you could use an ice scraper.
    Even with those items we really like it here. You can't beat the location to Padre Island and Port Aransas. The sunsets are amazing and walking the private beach daily is never tiring.

    Wilderness Oaks RV Resort

    Okay but next to airport with poor park drainage

    The previous reviewer is correct about the airport noise.

    Pros:

    • Our RV site was a back-in with plenty of room on a concrete pad with a picnic table. We were in the back row.

    • Our site did not have trees hanging over like a lot of sites (we have solar panels).

    Cons:

    • The campground wifi sucked. We relied more on our own Verizon wifi hotspot (we never assume park wifi is good).

    • Next to airport.

    • RV park, especially on eastern half, has seriously poor drainage. We were trapped in our RV lot, unable to leave, because the water was too deep for our Class A to go through without damage/mess of some sort.

    Gulf Waters Beach Front RV Resort


    5601 TX-361, Port Aransas, TX 78373 

    We stayed here 16 days in a 34 ft. Travel Trailer. Our site had an outdoor kitchen, cement picnic table and benches and a lovely palapa. The resort grounds are gorgeous and very well maintained. There is a pool, hot tub, showers and gorgeous private beach. The sites are each individually owned and decorated. We enjoyed the nice walk, up and over the dunes on the boardwalk, right onto the beach.


    Staff was super courteous and helpful. Grounds were kept clean.
Great location, located between Corpus Christi& Port Aransas.

    I can’t say enough about this amazing experience.We will be back! Excellently maintained RV resort!

    Port A RV Resort

    Learning to be retired

    We retired and our first stay has been at Port A RV resort. Very friendly staff and guests. We already feel as though we have been doing this for a long time. Lots of neighbor activities and pet friendly too. 2 pools, a hot tub, several gathering spots, laundry, palm trees... just feels like home.

    Firefly Coastal Bend- Corpus Christi

    Firefly Coastal Bend

    Firefly Coastal Bend Resort in Corpus Christi is the perfect getaway! The resort is incredibly family-friendly and pet-friendly, making it an ideal destination for everyone. The private beach is stunning, and the fishing spots are fantastic for those looking to relax by the water. The staff is amazing—always helpful and welcoming—and the management company is doing a phenomenal job keeping everything running smoothly. We can’t wait to come back and make even more memories here!

    Ransom Road RV Park

    Clean, quiet, concrete with some grass and palm trees.

    Near Port Aransas and Rockport. Quiet town with a few restaurants and HEB grocery store.  Cable tv included, wifi good but not the best, cuts out and has to be reestablished but still works good throughout the park.  Nice laundry, protected mail, clean restroom shower rooms and large meeting room. Office has limited hours of 8 am to 2 pm but you can call the host manager.  Additional laundry and bathrooms on back side of park.

    Tropic Island Resort

    Great location

    The great location. My family and me have stayed here a number of times It's less than a mile to the beach. All the stores and restaurants are all close. Full hook ups along with a sewer. Like any RV park, the spots are close together and tight. They have some pull through, but most are back in.
