  Woodland Lakes RV Park

  Extremely Nice Park with Ducks!

  Extremely nice RV park with large spaces and gravel parking area. Spaces are wide and have a picnic table on a concrete pad. Electric and water is separated, I hate it when water is on the electrical box! Internet speed is really good and they have cable TV hookups. Two laundry facilities, multiple dumpsters, kids play area, dog run, and multiple fishing ponds. There are a lot of long term patrons but still a good number of back in and pull through spots available for short-term. If you need to be in the north Houston area, definitely highly recommended.

  Big Creek Resort, Marina, & Campground

  One of my favorite local campgrounds

  I like this park because it's close to home. It's got a good space between sites and is broken into 3 or 4 areas so you're not just piled in like sardines. You can being 4-wheeled vehicles that have a steering wheel. No sewer hookups, but there is a dump station. Unfortunately, subsequent major floods have caused them to lose much of the tree cover. It's great when camping in groups though, which we do quite often. All sites have views of the lake. They have a really good fireworks display on 4th of July. 

  Type of Park: Private-owned 

  Check In: 4p Check Out: 3p 

  Site#79- Back-In

  $35 per night($105 total) 

  Water 20/30/50 amp 

  Picnic Table with concrete pad 

  Grass site. No rock or concrete base

  👍🏻 Pros: No trees to avoid 

  On the end of the line so no one is on the"front" side of the camper 

  Good area for camping in groups 

  Close to good swimming areas and store 

  Close to boat ramp

  👎🏻 Cons: Split-level site- table is down a slight hill from parking area. No shade 

  Across from the cabins on stilts, lake view is a little blocked 

  Cabins are being refurbished and the equipment and materials are stacked near the site(and some construction noise) 

  No grill or fire ring at this site

  📝 Park Notes: Gates closed and locked from midnight to 6 am on weekends. 

  Closed at 10 pm on week days. 

  Can bring golf carts, ATV's(machines with steering wheels, not handle bars) 

  Dump Station- a little hard to get to for big rigs. Also hard to leave the park from there. You may have to go back into the park to turn around. 

  Park Store- has fishing bait and supplies, too 

  Cabins are under re-construction There is a Places Munzee here

  Boat Ramp

  🐦 Wildlife: Birds: Cormorants(Water Turkeys), barn swallows, scissor-tail

  Stagecoach RV Park

  Clean, well kept and friendly host.

  This is more like a mobile home park for RV’s than a camping experience. Each space is a pull through that has a picnic table and full hookups including sewer. Most sites have trees. Most spaces are occupied by long term tenants as evidenced by skirting around the rigs. Evidently several children live here as well. There is a dedicated area to take dogs so they can do their business.
  Quite a few speed bumps. No gates so anyone can enter/exit at will. Laundry room and bathrooms have locks. Bathrooms are clean and free hot water. Pool/hot tub were closed. I stayed 3 nights in April. It felt safe, so I’d stay here again. People said hello when walking and waved when they drove by.

  Worst thing was the number of speed bumps…useful but not really RV friendly. I’ve added photos, and although I copied them from another source, they are valid photos of what I saw and experienced.

  Lake Somerville State Park Birch Creek Unit Campground

  Nice park with green space between sites

  • Water

  • 20/30 amp(had 50 amp outlet, but only 20& 30 breakers)

  • Grill

  • Fire Ring with adjustable height grate

  • Picnic Table

  • Site Pad: asphalt. Site was just long enough for my 24' camper and my truck and not much room between.

  👍🏻 Pros:

  • Near the water with a trail to get there

  • Green space between the site and neighbors

  • Good kayaking area

  👎🏻 Cons:

  • The spot is tight getting in. My 10' high camper had low hanging branches on it(but they were soft, not stiff). Lots of vines/shrubs across from the site, so no extra room there. 

  📝 Park Notes:

  • Park does not have a gate, so it doesn't close

  • Dump Station for each camping loop

  • Restrooms/ Bath House

  • Boat ramp

  • Fishing jetty (pier is closed)

  • This campground is better for winter camping. Great buffer from wind and neighbors. Only a handful of sites have direct access to the water.

  • Lots of trails

  • There are Munzees and Geocaches here

  • Group pavilion/kitchen available

  • 2 group shelters available

  🐦 Wildlife:• Birds: Shore birds, egrets, herons, cardinals, mockingbirds

  • Deer

  • Raccoons(I saw their tracks, but not the critters)

  More info an video at https://www.denisevajdak.com/2021/08/my-birthday-weekend-2021.html

  Site 23 was better (stayed in this one twice). Wider, nice view of lake. Not very long, but easier to get into.

  Rayford Crossing RV Resort

  Well Managed and Manicured

  We had to return our travel trailer to the dealership for some warranty work and wanted to have one last little getaway before handing it over. We opted to stay somewhere in the vicinity of the dealership, and this campground had an opening. So, we booked one of the last remaining sites and hit the road!

  Located in a suburban area north of Houston, the campground was very easy to find. It was nestled among nice suburban homes but still close to the amenities of a suburban city. We arrived after the employees left the front desk, so they instructed us to pick up our materials at the front office. We immediately noticed how well maintained this campground was. We easily found Site 21, a standard back in site. The sites are all concrete and level with a yard of grass and full hookups, which we really appreciate. We were surprised that our site didn’t have a picnic table like we thought, but we probably could have called to request one (wasn’t a huge issue in this July Texas heat).

  This campground is more like a residential area. We noticed that many vehicles were gone early on a weekday morning. Many of the “campers” had potted plants and other items that indicated they were long-term occupants. There were many rules for the campground such as no items allowed on the grass or under RVs and no trash cans at sites, but none of these were unreasonable. Staff was visible throughout the day, often maintaining the grounds and collecting trash at each site (trash collection is each morning). It was extremely quiet, clean, and manicured.

  Would we visit this campground again? Yes, if we plan to visit the Houston area for business in the future. We prefer the forest and the solitude that it affords, but this is a nice place to stay if you have business in the area. Rayford Crossing has amenities that may appeal to families with children such as a playground, beautiful pool, hot tub, shuffleboard, horse shoes, and fishing. The nice paved roads and sites and the dog park were nice as well. Our only complaints would be the price and lack of privacy, but I guess that’s to be expected in an RV resort near a major US city like Houston. Basically, it served our purpose.

  Jetstream RV Resort at Waller

  Great RV park!

  We stayed here for about 5 weeks and loved our stay! Lots of great amenities and awesome staff! Friendly neighbors and a lot of full timers so not a lot of traffic or noise. The park was clean with full hookups, wide roads and level concrete pads. Pet friendly- our two doggos loved the dog wash station! Highly recommend!
