RV camping near Rosharon, Texas offers convenient access to the Gulf Coast region with average summer temperatures exceeding 90°F from June through August. The flat terrain features clay soil that can become muddy after rain, making campsite conditions variable depending on recent weather patterns. Most campgrounds in this area sit at elevations under 50 feet above sea level.
What to do
Fishing opportunities: Several campgrounds provide stocked fishing ponds where guests can try their luck. At Brazoria Lakes RV Resort, visitors appreciate the "stocked fishing lake" along with amenities like a "swimming pool, game room, gym. Beautiful outdoor kitchens w/tv's," according to Rachel L.
Visit Tom Bass Park: This public park neighbors some campgrounds and offers expanded recreation options. One visitor at Houston Med Center KOA Holiday mentioned, "The best thing about the location is that it backs up to Tom Bass park that has wonderful dog parks along with playgrounds and frisbee golf."
Water activities: Campgrounds with pools provide relief during hot summer months. At Jamaica Beach RV Resort, guests enjoy "2 pools, 1 lazy river (so relaxing), 1 miniature golf course, 1 duck pond, 1 outdoor movie screen, 1 Pavilion with grills, and an awesome splash pad for the kids, both young and old," according to Elisha L.
What campers like
Clean facilities: Many visitors highlight well-maintained bathrooms and common areas. At Lakeview RV Resort, one reviewer noted, "Bathrooms were open. They were large and clean. A shuttle ran between the park and MD Anderson which made it very convenient for us."
Quiet environments: Despite proximity to highways, many parks maintain a peaceful atmosphere. At St. Ives RV Resort, a camper shared they "really loved the quiet. It isn't very close to town though probably 15-20 minutes but there is at least one gas station kind of close."
Security features: Gated entrances provide peace of mind for campers with valuable equipment. One visitor at Medical Center RV Resort appreciated that it's "very well lit at night with soft lights. Also very quiet considering your in downtown Houston."
What you should know
Medical center proximity: Several parks cater to patients visiting Houston medical facilities. At Medical Center RV Resort, guests appreciate the "shuttle to medical center for free" and its location "about 15 minutes from museum district and downtown."
Varying site sizes: Some parks have limited space between sites. A reviewer at Eric and Jay's RV Resort noted their experience with "the cheapest back-in site" was "very narrow with hardly any room to walk between the picnic bench and trailer once we were pulled-in."
Internet connections: Connection methods vary by park. One camper at Eric & Jay's RV Resort explained their unique approach: "They have a 'no wifi' slogan, and the campground wifi is rendered obsolete within the confines of your designated space, instead favoring a hard-wired ethernet connection to your router, which you will leave outside your trailer."
Tips for camping with families
Look for kid-friendly amenities: Some parks offer extensive recreation options for children. Jamaica Beach RV Resort "runs activities all day for the kids but most are already engaged in one of the pools," according to Jeff H., who added, "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."
Consider noise levels: Position within parks can affect your experience. Houston Med Center KOA Holiday campers note location matters: "The further you get to the front the louder the traffic noise is, but the sites are larger and spaced out more. It is a five and take."
Check for nearby nature areas: Public parks adjacent to campgrounds expand recreation options. As one camper at Eric and Jays RV Resort mentioned, the campground has "a fully stocked pond for fishing and a gas fireplace pit to sit around in the evenings."
Tips from RVers
Site leveling preparation: Bring adequate leveling equipment. At Eric & Jay's RV Resort, one camper reported, "This is a brand new park, yet some of the concrete slabs are unlevel. Perhaps the most unlevel that we've experienced in our travels."
Arrival logistics: Check entrance procedures before arrival. A camper at Eric & Jay's RV Resort advised: "Upon arrival, we used the address provided and it led us to a locked gate that required a code. We had no code and the driveway was so short, it had our trailer sticking out into the road as we tried to figure out how to check-in."
Consider seasonal rates: Winter attracts more visitors to the area. Alvin RV Resort provides "concrete sites, well equipped monuments, and nice gated grounds" with "daily trash pickup" according to a visitor who enjoyed their "multi-month stay here."
