"Plenty of room for big rigs. Road noise from highway, but not a negative for us. Sites are gravel/rock with grassy areas adjacent."
"Just off I10 with spacious sites that are mostly level. Friendly staff took care of our checkin. Clean rustic bathhouse with plenty of hot water."

"Bathroom and shower facilities are very clean. RV site electrical and water hook up easily accessible along with the sewer connection. I definitely recommend this RV resort."
"The grounds were lovely, with beautiful live oaks, a manicured walking path among the oaks behind the property, and a nice garden with chickens and guinea fowl for entertainment."
"We were close to the river."
"Yes, there's not a lot of spaces between spots like there are in most state parks, but the residents are quiet. We had space D25 which is on the outside of the big loop by the river and boat ramp."

"First time at Iron Horse RV resort, won't be our last! The grounds are clean and the spaces are wide. They have a beautiful pavilion and a lazy river. "
"Less than a mile off the highway, this RV Park feels further as it rests along the Guadalupe's slow moving water. Check them out and share your experience on the Dyrt!"
"Close to home but still feels like a great escape. Beautiful trees throughout and family friendly. Perfect weather and place."
"We brought our 7 year old daughter and she really enjoyed playing at the playground. Our site was conveniently located in front of the playground and next to the shower/ bathroom/ laundry facility."

LegendLockhart State Park is a small park with simple facilities, but they do have a golf course and some of the best BBQ in Texas nearby.
The park is located a short distance from the town of Lockhart and about 40 minutes from Austin. The park has all the basic amenities like campsites with water, electricity, picnic tables, grills and fire rings. There are a few short trails to explore. For the family there is a swimming pool and little playground. Perhaps one of the unique features of this park is that there is a 9 hole golf course within the park.
Some of the facilities feel a bit dated. However, if you're looking for a relaxing time with family friendly activities this park might work for you.
Before or after your stay at Lockhart State Park be sure to pass through the town of Lockhart (nicknamed the BBQ Capitol of Texas) where you can choose between three of the best barbecue restaurants in Texas - Blacks BBQ, Smitty's BBQ and Kreuzs BBQ.
LegendThis park is on the Colorado River and the grounds are beautiful and well maintained. Large, level sites with full hookups. Two large dog parks and walking trails by the pretty river. A great Mexican restaurant is within walking distance from the park.
LegendPros:
• Quick check-in
• 176-acre park with 40 campsites on the south shore of Lake Bastrop.
• Level site concrete pad surrounded by crushed granite.
• Aluminum picnic table, lantern pole, BBQ grill and fire pit with cooking grill.
• Cleaned BBQ grill and fire pit upon arrival.
• Very private as the site was surrounded by heavy brush.
• Even though Spring Break and the campground was packed, it was quiet.
• Firewood is available for purchase from Park.
Cons:
• LCRA $6 on-line reservation fee.
• Long waits for toilet/shower. All are family type facilities with the toilet, sink and shower as one unit behind a lock door, so one showering person ties up a toilet. There are 8“units” for 40 campsites PLUS cabins.
• Toilets/showers could of used more frequent cleaning as they are heavily used.
LegendThis is a small campground with only 19 sites, which keeps it quiet. Sites are mostly a good size and while there's no visual buffer from your neighbors, there is a decent amount of space between sites. Lots of trees around for shade, but they do interfere with enjoying the dark night sky. (You can't have everything! LOL) All sites are paved but some have odd slopes to them.
Water and 20/30/50 amp electric on each site is nice. They also have a central dump station. Firewood available from camp host, which is good because the HQ is quite a ways down the road. All sites have forwoits and standing grills.
Bathrooms seemed well-maintained and clean, showers worked well and had hot water.
Trails throughout the park are mostly short and easy but make for a nice morning walk since several come right past the campground for easy access.
Woke up to lots of birds chirping and a nice peaceful sunrise. There is some road noise but it's distant enough not to be bothersome.
T-Mobile coverage was OK, Verizon was a bit better. May need an antenna or booster to get a lot of work done.
RangerThe city of Victoria operates a very nice RV park adjoining the city’s recreational complex. 18 pull through sites have full hookups and are generously spaced. Cost is $12.00 per night and all sites are “first come, first served”. 50 amp service is available on each site.
The park is located within a park and adjacent to the park is a paved walking/biking path that if taken to the south, leads over to the Guadalupe River. Along the river is a 18 hole City golf course, minor league baseball field, duck pond and a children’s museum. All beautiful landscaped and maintained by the city of Victoria.
I highly recommend this park and I would certainly stay here again in the future!!
GuideWe found this RV park a great overnight stop while traveling I-10. Many long termers, but they stayed to themselves. Plenty of room for big rigs. Road noise from highway, but not a negative for us. Sites are gravel/rock with grassy areas adjacent. Not perfectly level, but we wiggled the trailer around a bit in the spot until we got close. Full hookups. Laundry onsite, though we didn’t use. Looked clean. Bathroom is an odd layout with no doors separating stalls or toilet - curtains only. They were perfectly functional and clean though. Good value!
LegendWe came into this park on the 4th day of the big Texas freeze this past winter. Unfortunate for them, pipe broke and they were out of water at the time. But it was fixed a couple days after we arrived.
Now as for the park. It has a section of 30 amp services which are in some shades and are on concrete, a newer area in the park has been created which for the most part is in a field, with new 50 amp service and are on grass. All sites have water and sewer as well. There are seasonal/annuals in the park I would say about 25% of 30amp service is. If you choose to be one, you need to go to the town and get a permit otherwise there is a two week limit to camp here.
We use ATT on Nomad Internet and Verizon & T-Mobile on our phones, ATT Wi-Fi was 4 bars and our phones were each 3 bars and no issues with any of the services,
There is bath house located in the center of the park as you come into the entrance. The park is on a "park and hook up and then pay" system. After setting up to go to the front of the bathhouse and leave a check or cash into a box. The city of Yoakum maintains the park and it is well kept. Garbage dumpster is free and available as well. There is a playground for kids as well as right next to a full size golf course. So you could get into your golf cart and right over to the clubhouse while never getting on a roadway. The cost is very cheap, we paid $13 a night with senior discount, regular price is $15 That is FHU!! You will hear a plan or two during the day as there is a small airport down the street, but the low flying small planes are not too disturbing. The town of Yoakum is 5 minutes from your location and it has a Family dollar and a H.E.B as well as a few cool shops.
If your ever out that way and need a place to stay that is friendly, clean and quiet for the most part, you won't be disappointed.
RangerThe weather and the calendar aligned and there happened to be an open spot, so I took it, loaded up and headed out.
