    Colorado Landing RV & Mobile Home Park

    Beautiful park with great amenities

    This 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.

    Whispering Oaks RV Park

    Nice campground

    We were greeted immediately by a friendly attendant, and quickly led to our campsite. 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. The property included a playground, a dog park, and an activity center (inaccessible because of COVID), laundry facilities, propane, and more. Each campsite was very clean, with a picnic table, and lights in the oaks for ambiance.

    I recommend this place!

    Bastrop/Colorado River KOA

    Easy access to the campground even during road construction

    Management of campground very helpful in difficult times. We arrived during a utility upgrade so television was unavailable. Due to Covid restrictions the pool was by reservation only. The park is very pretty however only half of the campsites have shade and ours was unshaded at 90 plus degrees. The pet area was excellent. The campground is located adjacent to the Colorado river, unfortunately there is zero access to the river. With close proximity to the highway, the park was surprisingly quiet.

    Whispering Oaks RV Park

    A quiet little Gem!

    What a gem of a park! We only stayed one night so I did not get to use any amenities except for the DOG Park! What a wonderful amenity with the automatic lights for after dark. Park was very clean and quiet. The way the site was set up was truly delightful. Picnic table in just the right place, Oak tree in just the right place, outdoor decorative lighting, awesome fire pit. I really wish I had time to stay longer. This place will be a“must” stay the next time I come thru. Highly recommend!

    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!

    Jetstream RV Resort at Waller

    wonderful

    We stayed here for almost five weeks, and we had a wonderful time! A wonderful team and a multitude of wonderful amenities! There is not a lot of traffic or noise because there are a lot of full-time residents and friendly neighbors. The park was spotless, and it featured wide roads, concrete pads that were level, with complete connections. Pet-friendly; our two canine companions absolutely adored the dog wash station. Recommendation heartily! contexto

    The Western RV Park

    Great location for ShuffleFest

    The Western RV Park

    Behind The Western Steakhouse& Dancehall 

    9524 Highway 6 Loop S 

    Navasota, TX 77868 

    936-306-3821 

    westernrv@yahoo.com 

    Type of Park: Private-owned 

    Check In:? Check Out:?- Call 

    Site#32- Back-In

    $45 per night (3% fee for credit card) 

    Water

    20/30/50 amp 

    Sewer 

    Site Pad: Concrete

    👍🏻 Pros: 

    • Very wide sites. Can park the tow vehicle next to the rig 
    • Brand new- all new electric, water, sewer 
    • Sites are level 
    • No need for rugs and such

    👎🏻 Cons:

    • It's a big concrete parking lot with hookups- nothing special beyond that 
    • The sites were wide, but there's only about a foot or so of space between sites 
    • No picnic tables or grills 
    • Grass only around the edges of the lot (Keep that in mind for pets) 
    • Some spots around the edges had a tiny bit of shade

    📝 Park Notes: 

    Large, bright light poles and the lights are on all night, hard to tell when the sun is coming up and not just the lights. But no stumbling around in the dark. 

    It was nice being at The Western Club with friends for the ShuffleFest weekend event and not having to drive 45 minutes back and forth. The RV park is directly behind the Steakhouse& Dancehall.

    It is a great spot to stay if you're going to the Western Club. It wouldn't be my first choice for a vacation destination though. It is right off the feeder road for Highway 6, but the road noise isn't terrible.
