Guide
We chose this RV park because it was one of the few that had power after hurricane. Full hook ups for 25 a night which was half the price of the other RV parks in the area. RV spots are tight but manageable. It appears that a large percentage of RVs are there on monthly rates. We met one person who was working at one of the refineries which explains the early morning activity with cars leaving. Beautiful little pond in the RV park with a little flock of domestic ducks that live in the pond. There is also a dog park surrounded by water. Restrooms are small but clean. Staff was very helpful. If we were planning a return trip we would definitely stay there again.

If I'm in the area again, I will be coming back to the Jetstream RV Resort. We stayed here mid-September- December 2022 and the RV park was formerly known as Advanced RV Resort. There seems to be another Advanced and Jetstream RV Park in the area so make sure you are looking at the correct place. During my stay, the RV Park was going through a big remodel. Any reviews you have read prior to 2023, might not apply anymore. This is the correct website: https://jetstreamrvresortpearland.com/
For starters, it's tight getting into the RV Resort from the main road. You do not want traffic on your butt when you are trying to make the turn in from the road. Then when you get in, it's still tight until you make it to the office to check in. The front of the RV Park is by the toll road, and you can hear the traffic. We were in site 223 in the back, by the city park, and we could barely hear any vehicle noise. We couldn’t hear anything when our AC was running. The front and the back of the RV Park seem to be two different experiences. The area is relatively safe. There is a police officer or two, and a police dog, that live at the RV Park. There was one break-in that we heard about during our stay. The RV Park is off a service road so there isn't any foot traffic on the main road. The city park it cleared out and shut down by the police every night so there aren’t any people roaming around after dark. You can walk right out of the RV Park to the city park through a gate in the back corner. The city park has a 2 mile and 6+ mile walking path. It seems to be the only real place to get out and exercise in the area.
The RV Park staff is great, and the property is well taken care of. During the renovations, they are adding tiny homes, a community fire pit, golf putting green, hanging string lights, kids play area, a new dog washing station, gym, and a beer garden. All of this was in the works during our stay, so we didn’t get to see it completed before leaving. They also have onsite laundry with change machines, bathrooms, clubhouse, propane and pick up your garbage. You are allowed get mail delivered. During our stay, all mail and packages were delivered to the office since they were in the middle of renumbering all the sites. Normally, you go to the office to pick up USPS and all over deliveries go to your RV site. The office doesn’t tell you when mail arrives, you need to track your packages or go check the office.
If you don't have an EZ Pass or RV Toll Pass, you'll want one if you must drive during rush hour. The traffic is THICK and there were accidents almost every day on our way to and from work. The toll pass helped us make it to work on time instead of sitting in a daily traffic jam due to the most recent fender bender or rollover. There are plenty of stores to shop at and they are all very close. Walmart, HEB, Kroger, Sam's Club are all within a few miles. Plus, the area has pretty much every other chain store or restaurant you can think of.

We just started RV'ing and going fulltime all at once. Our backs were starting to feel the road so I looked up, "RV parks with hot tubs" and found Jamaica Beach RV Resort. This place is amazing, it literally has everything! 2 hot tubs, 1 indoor and 1 outdoor, 2 pools, 1 lazy river (so relaxing), 1 miniature golf course, 1 duck pond, 1 outdoor movie screen, 1 Pavillion with grills, and an awesome splash pad for the kids, both young and old. It is right across from the Gulf at the front and a trail to the Bayside with docks for fishing, 2 bench swings, and a nice bike path. We also saw chickens, horses, cattle, ducks, cranes, fish, and a lot of turtles.
It has 2 separate laundry areas and several spots to just relax.
We were wondering where fulltimers go for vacation and we just found it! We will definitely be back!

This is a nice RV park that was well laid out when built, and it seems they are continuing that as they expand the number of sites. Note that we were there during the transition from the Galveston Island RV Resort to the Galveston Island KOA. So, there's no telling what KOA might do regarding prices, amenities, policies, etc. Therefore, our review is based on the structure and layout of the park.
We found the sites to be large with plenty of room in between rigs compared to many RV parks, including most of the others on Galveston Island. There is electric (50- and 30-amp), water, and sewer on each site. Many of the sites are pull-throughs. The ones along the outside rows are back-in sites but have the advantage of no roads or neighbors behind you.
The roads through the park are nice and wide, so there is plenty of room to maneuver large rigs.
The bathroom facilities are decent; reminiscent of residential bathrooms. It's nice that there are 4 bathrooms with showers and they are unisex. We never ended up waiting. Plenty of hot water, although pressure from the older showerheads seemed lacking at times.
The laundry room was clean and the machines worked reasonably well. There were 5 washers and 5 dryers available (when they were all working).
The location could be good or bad depending on your priorities. It's an easy walk across the road to the beach to reach the Gulf of Mexico and the beach stretches for miles. It's also quieter in this area because you are on the west end and not near the city. However, that could be a downside for some folks. It's a solid 20-minute drive to get to town for restaurants, tourist attractions, etc. That may seem long if you want to go in and out of the city a lot, and it's too far to bike it or walk it, so you have to have a vehicle to drive into town with. There are gas stations and a small grocery store within a few miles.
As I mentioned, this is now a KOA, so I don't know what they're going to do with the pool, hot tub, and lazy river. (All three were closed while we were there in February, so can't really comment much on them.) A KOA representative told us they are looking at adding a playground to the park.
If it had not been bought by KOA, we would have gone back here whenever we are in the Galveston area. Until we see what KOA does with their rates and policies, we simply don't know if we will return.
GuideThis is a nice RV park - the sites are close together but they are level and give you full hook ups. There are multiple pools, putt putt golf and a lazy river. Be sure to grab your spot next to the lazy river early in the day if you are wanting to stay all day. There are a few umbrellas but you can bring your own easy up shade tent.
The park runs activities all day for the kids but most are already engaged in one of the pools. We went with another family and got sites that faced each other. Made things really helpful and gave us a little more space than normal.
The gulf side of the beach is a short drive away. You can walk it but you have to cross a busy two lane highway which I wouldn’t recommend. When we were there they were making a path to the bay side of the beach to make it easier to get to.
We have been here twice and will certainly come back again.

Stella Mare RV Resort was very nice. Everything was easy to access, everything was clean, and the pool and splash pad were great for the kids. I did a video which you can see below.
Scout
Great for adults, not really anywhere for little kids to play besides the pool but this is a really cool RV resort in downtown Houston and I would definitely recommend it. It is directly off of the highway so don’t except quite 🙂
Guide
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.
Legend
If I were just reviewing this area for the fishing, it would get 5 stars. You can catch such an interesting variety of fish (see photos). The main downside of the campground is how tightly packed the sites are next to each other. If you're planning an overnight fishing trip during weekdays though, then naturally it's less crowded.
Facilities include: full RV hookups, bathrooms, showers, washer/dryer, wifi.

This little RV Park in Winnie Texas is a great spot to overnight or take a few days to rest and organize. Management is friendly and helpful. There are spaces empty so there is plenty of room. There is laundromat and showers although we used neither. There are full hookups with fast internet and cable included. There’s not much to do in Winnie but it was a nice place to rest up before we head back to the beach. Inexpensive.
ScoutGreat park! More long term tenants than over nighters. But still a good park. Quiet and kid friendly. The new owners are working on improving the appearance, as the previous ones left a bit to be desired.
ScoutThis place did not disappoint. Amazing all around! A lot of activities for the little ones and the pool was really nice and heated! There was even a couple residents that got out some kites and bubbles for the kids! The only negative is that this was our very first stay at an RV resort, so the bar is set extremely HIGH! We have now stayed a few others and this is still at the top of the list. It’s close to everything but yet far enough away. Will definitely be back!

Ashley here with The Dyrt. We're happy to welcome this Resort that offers 72 RV Sites to choose from. Full hook-ups available. Check them out and leave them some love!
GuideHas everything I need for a long term stay. Computer room, exercise equipment, showers, laundry. The grounds are well kept. Outdoor kitchens for use. The pool is small and not deep but is still enjoyable. Pretty lakes with fish. A shuttle to the hospitals. It’s right off the highway. Nothing within walking distance though except the convenience store.
ScoutMonth long stay, $730, water, 50 amp. End of October/beginning of November the park is booked out as well as during warmer months. Half of the facilities washers and dryers didn't work. Staff is great about communicating lawn days and other news for long term guests. Trash valet and 2 free parking spots. 2 dogs parks, one for large and another for smaller dogs.
Guide
The park is VERY clean and also quiet! It’s close to everything so thats a major plus. However it does have A LOT of rules. Also, a lot of long term residents live here. The back in spots are a little tight so if you’re not great at backing in just get a pull through. The facilities are immaculate . It’s been worth the price so far.
Guide
Stayed there for 3 months. Campground is divided into 3 sections divided by a fence. Adult only section. Park is well maintained and staff is friendly. 3pools. Fishing dock. Lots of full timers here. No fenced dog area. The location in Kemah is walking distance to several good restaurants and musical entertainment. Across the street is Clear Lake Shores. A bayside community with boats. They also are big into golf carts. See the sunset over the bay. Kemah boardwalk is a short drive down the street. Location is best part of here. The office charges you for mail/package delivery which I don’t like. Typical RV resort amenities. Community room with kitchen, showers, laundry, workout room. (Equipment needs some maintenance).
TravelerWe needed a place to stay for the night, before the ferry. This one was perfect for it. Nothing fancy, but full hook up and a picnic table.
TravelerTents are allowed at Surfside sites but they are more difficult to get reservations then at the tent sites a couple miles from the surf. we stayed in the tent sites away from the surf. Fishing was close by. water at the sites but no electric. Electric and water at Surfside sites. Mosquitoes are worse at Surfside at night. Full hookups available with dump stations for RVs.
GuideThe staff is friendly & professional. All concrete pads and pull thrus. Full hook ups including WiFi. The place is immaculate. The pads are close together. Additional parking for vehicles are available.

Even though our reservation was last minute, the owners were super quick in getting back to us. The guy who met us at the camp was also very friendly and showed us to our spot. $35 for dry camping, but there’s was also a cool pavilion that we were allowed to use that has a power outlet where you can charge your phone. There’s also a barbecue pit and a fridge too.
There’s plenty of space for dispersed camping and the lake is magnificent.
There seemed to be some long term residents but they won’t bother you at all. Restroom and shower super clean.
T-mobile signal was also strong. Would stay here again!

This campground is a little way off the main highway so you can still hear quite a bit of road noise but it is convenient and the beach is very close.
We did not have reservations and were a bit confused when we pulled in. There is no office and there is just a row of rigs on a dirt drive. We luckily saw a person staying here and got a number from him to call ((409) 225-2020). We called and the guy was friendly and said there are a few sites available for the night but most of the spots are actually permanent rigs that people just rent out like an AirBnb.
The open sites have full hook ups: 20/30/50 amp, sewer and water. As mentioned before there are permanent rigs here and they all offer full hook ups as well. There is a laundry room which has free washer and dryer but there is no bathroom or showers. There is a dumpster on the property but no recycling. It is walking distance to the beach which is nice and a waterway behind the RV sites. There are also kayaks and bikes here that you can borrow or rent.
We stayed here one night while driving through. Would possibly stay again if we needed another "chore" day but otherwise there is lots of free beach camping nearby.
We chose this place because there's a 50% Passport America discount. Since we arrived on a weekend, our discounted cost came to $34 (after tax), instead of the $24 listed on the PA site. Also, the PA site said there are showers here and we were disappointed that there aren't any, but maybe they meant the showers that are in the trailers that people can rent.
Good cell reception with ATT and Verizon and there is free wifi as well.
