    Austin's Landing RV Park & Resort

    Only if desperate

    We stayed to be close to the jetty to fish. That’s the only positive. Very run down. Sites very close together. Bathroom/shower was frightening. Did not check out the laundry facility.

    Camp Margaritaville RV Resort Crystal Beach

    Resort "Camping"

    General: Huge RV Park located on the Gulf of Mexico (not Gulf of America!) on the Bolivar Peninsula; a Phase 2 expansion will eventually double the size of the park. (We stayed here two years ago and it looks like some of that expansion has already taken place.) There is just about every kind of amenity you can imagine here, including many facilities and activities geared toward families. There is a 10% discount for military and first responders.

    Site Quality: As would be expected in an RV park, sites are close together with no privacy/separation between them. Sites include back-in sites (some are very close to the road), lakeview back-in sites, lakefront patio sites, premium pull-through sites, and beach club sites. All sites are FHU. IMO, the lakefront patio sites are the best as you back up to the lake. 

    Bath/Shower house: Likely the most immaculate facilities we’ve ever encountered. Staff was constantly cleaning them throughout the day. The showers were heavenly. The only frustrating thing is that the electrical outlet was located across the room from the mirror, making it challenging to dry/style your hair. 

    Activities/Amenities: Two pools: a family and an adult pool (with a full bar), kids park, golf cart rentals (you can drive them or your own personal vehicle on the beach with a permit), a stage for concerts, a bouncing pad, ball pits, and a dog park. There is also a camp store and a restaurant on-site. 

    This was our first time staying in a resort RV park and we were overwhelmed but in a good way. Our site was a lakefront patio site which we booked at the off-season rate. The park was between a quarter and a third full, but I would not want to stay when it was completely full. The beach wasn’t the greatest, but we appreciated direct beach access for walks and runs. Five stars for the cleanliness and amenities even if it is not our typical camping experience.

    Royal Palms RV Resort

    Amazing RV Resort

    Royal Palms RV Resort is truly a hidden gem! From the moment you arrive, you can feel the sense of community and care that sets this park apart. The all-concrete roads and spacious pads make parking a breeze, and the beautifully maintained grounds create a peaceful, resort-like atmosphere. The amenities are top-notch - the resort-style pool is perfect for relaxing on warm days, the fitness center and game room offer great options for staying active, and the private bathrooms and laundry facilities are always clean and convenient. Plus, the ponds for catch-and-release fishing and acres of land to explore make it a perfect spot for nature lovers. The staff go above and beyond to make sure every guest feels welcome and taken care of. Safety and community are clearly a priority here, and it shows. The gated entry, friendly neighbors, and regular events like pool parties, bingo nights, and holiday gatherings really make it feel like home. If you're looking for a quiet, secure, and beautifully maintained RV resort with a true sense of community, Royal Palms RV Resort is the place to be. I couldn't recommend it more!

    Awesome campground!

    Love this state park! Sites are nice and wide and level. Beachside has recently (past few years) been redone and they did a fantastic job! You are within easy walking distance to the beach and while Galveston beaches may not be the best in the world, it is hard to have a bad day on the beach. Just sayin’

    Brazos Bend State Park Campground

    Hidden Gem in the Texas Swamp

    We stayed at spot 128 in the Burr Oak. It was very easy to back into, the site is super wide and full asphalt. Site was very level. Bathrooms were somewhat close, about 4 or 5 sites down with a shortcut through the woods. Not a lot of street lights throughout the campground made things nice and quiet at night. The site had good Verizon cell service, around 25-50 mbps. The Tmobile service was around the same. This place is very remote and the park itself is huge, we only stayed one night but it has a ton to offer! Overall the campground was clean, very quiet, with a ton of activities.

    Small, nice, beachfront !

    Very nice place. Only 14 spaces all with concrete pad, picnic table, and full hookups. Very clean and well maintained. Just steps from the beach with an outdoor shower to clean off the sand before you head home. Also a 6(?) room hotel on site. Staff is always available. The company who does the lawn care accidentally cut both my sewer hoses and The Breeze owners had them replaced in 5 minutes!

    Amazing

    This place did not disappoint. Amazing all around! A lot of activities for the little ones and the pool was really nice and heated! There was even a couple residents that got out some kites and bubbles for the kids! The only negative is that this was our very first stay at an RV resort, so the bar is set extremely HIGH! We have now stayed a few others and this is still at the top of the list. It’s close to everything but yet far enough away. Will definitely be back!
