    Village Creek State Park Campground

    Keep an eye out for Bigfoot!

    Great park if you want to get outside, but still want access to civilization.

    Park is somewhat of a mix between wetland and forest. While this is an awesome ecosystem with lots to see and explore - take bug spray! Especially if going in May - when the Horseflies are out. We made the mistake of forgoing the Off and got eaten alive. This is our fault, and not the parks, though.

    The park is conveniently located just outside of Beaumont. In fact, you may feel like you haven’t left the city until you are there. This can be helpful if you want to grab a bite and not cook, or if you run short of supplies. I would recommend this park especially for someone new to camping.

    Free place to rest when driving on 10

    Easy to get to, we were the only camper here. Some fishermen down on the water during the day but we were the only campers. Our 42’ 5th wheel fit nicely on the gravel patch by the cement picnic table. Only rules are to register (info on the sign, free but you have to call the number) and don’t park on the grass (there were some day use people parked on the grass but they want campers on the gravel) - can’t beat it for free.

    Fun outdoors area

    Pretty big place with lots of trees. It’s a large open area, but it’s usually not busy in the wintertime. Nice place to go fishing there’s a small doc

    Perfect stay for camping (tent)

    I got the camping permit just by calling the phone number at the entrance, they provide me an email to sent my driver license and car type. That’s it, they sent me back the permit. Everything is free. There are restrooms and showers. Calm and chill place to sleep. Fishing and camping, that’s the vibe always. Great place.

    Good stopover

    We stopped here for one night traveling from Florida to Texas. Small but nice park. Stayed in site # 22. Sites are long and narrow but plenty of shade. Park has some trails and creek area. Bathrooms were excellent!!! Park was not busy at all. Great for stopover as it's not far from I-10.

    Little Hidden Gem

    This is a small hidden state park that has rustic beauty. 25 campsites with electric and water, that can be used for campers or tents (tent pads at each site). We camped with a 27 ft camper, with barely enough room. Slightly unlevel, needed 2 blocks on left side. Each site has a tent pad, table, and firepit. There is a dump station. Extremely clean shower and bath house. Several hiking and biking trails, as well as a small beach area, kayaking, fishing, gazebo and playground. A nature center was on site which has activities for families on the weekends! Walk in tent camping without electric and water available. Our site #4 was only 16 dollars a night. Park rangers and camp hosts were knowledgeable and kind.

    Lots of trees

    I love all the trees although it's not great if you're trying to charge up your solar panel. There is a small neighborhood nearby so you will hear kids playing. Otherwise it's very peaceful, we had the whole place to ourselves.

    Clean, well maintained

    25 standard RV sites with water & electric. $16, plus some walkin tent sites. Arrived on a Monday night with no reservation; no problem getting a nice site (#19). The young lady checking us in was very nice & helpful. The campground was clean & well maintained. The restroom/shower house was exceptionally clean. Most sites appear to be close to each other, but trees & shrubbery between sites provided some privacy. Sites were also narrow, but long. Enough room for a camper & tent. A few big rigs had difficulty with backing into a site. Pretty state park. Includes a hiking trail. Good AT&T & T-Mobile cell service.

    Nice Place

    Nice place for overnighting. Or camp for the 3 day limit. Nice clean park. Sites have concrete picnic tables. But bring a fly swatter for the mosquitoes. A couple got into my home on wheels and when I killed them they left a big bloodstain. Otherwise not a bad place. Is there is a shell gas station across the street for food and guess. They did have 2 bathroom houses only one of them was clean. No showers. There were water spickets all over the place. I don't know if it's potable or not. It was dry camping so I already came prepared. You do need a permit for 3 day stay limit. You can obtain one by going on the website and calling and talk to Brandy she will email you one. This is a County park.

    Try In a few years

    Not worth it. Over 50% of the park was closed and they cut a lot of the trees down to “make it better” no good fishing. Porta-potty’s we’re disgusting. Not much wildlife and over crowed

    Level spots lots of room

    We have enjoyed our stay at the preserve! Have 3 little boys who enjoy fishing and they have plenty of creeks and ponds near campsites; it isn’t the most luxurious parks but if your looking for a state park feel this place is a home run!

    very nice camping spot

    I would give it a five but the trails are all closed and some of the sites were flooded .

    really secluded spots  easy to get into and camp is under the trees which is a nice touch .

    Easy access to Big Thicket, clean, comfortable campground

    About 30 mins to Big Thicket visitors center and hike access. There are several nice hikes in the park but many were closed due to a long-leaf pine reforestation project that involved logging and shredding. A bit inconvenient and we could hear the shredders but we met one of the project engineers who took the time to explain the much-needed project/restoration effort. Easy walk to clean restroom with hot showers. We had 30 amp and water hook-ups. Dump station nearby with two sides.

    Great little park

    We enjoyed Christmas in this quiet park, kinda chilly and pretty deserted. As per normal for RV parks, WiFi sucks but cell signal was adequate (fairly strong with WeBoost) close proximity to shops and restaurants (loved Tia Juanitas Fish camp). Walks, bike tracks, river for kayaking all add to enjoyment.

    For those who have showered in an RV, let me say that the high pressure, hot shower is great. Nicely maintained public facilities were great. Level campsites (some look a tad shorter than most) Friendly staff. We did find 7 nights a bit long, but we will be back in the future

    Village Creek State Park

    March 20-22, 2019. Nice park. Half of the park was closed due to Hurricane Harvey from 2017. Elevation 46 ft., electric, water, dump station, showers, flush toilets. Tia Juanitas Fish Camp close by and very good.

    Maiden Voyage

    Our first stop in the maiden voyage of our travel trailer and this park was good and kind to us. Beautiful, level pull-thru sites with plenty of space from others, shade and sun and within walking distance to bathhouse and swim beach. Mosquitoes abound and there is no cell signal or wi-fi. Prepare to drive 20 minutes to grocery.

    Village Creek

    Stayed here the weekend before Halloween, most all of the park was still closed from flooding earlier in the year. The nature center was open and we made seed balls to distribute throughout the garden area. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Will return when the trails open back up so we can explore more

    Nice place

    Staying at this park transitioning into my camper to being full time. Most of the park is closed right now, due to the damage from Hurrican Harvey not having been repaired as yet. The RV campground is open, along with the restrooms with showers. There is no access to other parts of the park at this time. I've stayed here previous to this visit and love this park. Even though it is a small park, I would recommend it highly. The RV sites are mostly level on asphalt pads. There is a lot of shade. However, the sites are kinda close together. But. . .there are trees and shrubs between most of the sites.
