Best Campgrounds near Tuscola, TX

Fairly new park on top of hill. Stayed long term so very familiar with park. Next to I-20 so there’s that. Good pool, dog park, laundromat with pay per load on machines-card. Hard Gravel parking- most sites not completely level, astroturf yard. Roads are asphalt paved so great for walks. Did not use showers. Good sewer, water pressure and 50/30 amp available-included for overnight. Good Spots just for overnight folks-Pull through. Backin long term-very good- best in area for electric kWh price. Good long term rent price. First A.I. mega center being built in the area so wait list long term.

stayed here for a week in mid-November. Weather: 70 for the high and mid 40s at night. There were signs for nature trail, but I didn’t check it out. Beautiful views and amazing star gazing opportunities. Not much shade/trees near the sites. There sites are well spaced out along the reservoir: covered tables, trash can, grills, and fire pits all for a $5 day use fee. There isn’t a camp host or gate attendant on site. The people from LCRA that attended the park biweekly to empty trash. Minimal local activity during our stay. There is a dump station outside the park. Propane and groceries available only 10 minutes away. Excellent t-mobile service, was able to work remotely.

The park has loads of available camping areas and gazebos with tables, trash cans, grills, and a set of restrooms that are kept relatively clean. Couldn’t ask for a better spot honestly

Honestly this place is way better than i anticipated. Gated, clean, several of the sites have a covered veranda over the private picnic tables. Dog park with separate areas for small and large breed dogs. Full hook up w/ 50 amp and well spaced out sites. The grass is nice too (a lot of places are mainly weeds and stickers/thorns that my dog doesn’t want walk in). $52 for one night so a bit pricey for us to stay longer than a couple days but definitely a good place to stop that i feel is clean and safe. Others complained of hearing a train but we were there in the summer and with our a/c on i can’t hear any exterior noises

The Love's RV Stop was clean with long drive paths and enough space. The information about the water hookup was a little confusing as it stated to only fill up vs water hookup while at your RV location. We didn't see a laundry facility as advertised or RV store. We feel though Love's RV Stop is convenient, we feel they're missing a few key points. If their going to advertise a facility, they need to ensure it's either at the Gas Station or the RV Campsite. There also needs to a storm shelter, building, or information regarding evacuations in an emergency, for tornadoes, hail, or worse since there's no tenant, representative, or security on site anywhere. Lastly, IF they're going to advertise the gas station stop as the official RV Store, there needs to safe walk path to store from the RV Stop vs unhooking to drive there when someone is only here for a layover (1 night). Other than those issues, the RV Stop is great! We would definitely use them more in the future!

Hords Creek COE in Coleman, TX Site #75 50 amp Full hook up Pull through site April 12-16, 2024

The site was roomy with lots of shade trees. Our door faced the west & trees were not close enough to our RV to block out the evening sun. We did have a lakefront view, but the lake is WAY down.

This loop was full over the weekend, but sites are spaced just far enough apart that you can still enjoy the peace & quiet.

If I had a choice of any spot in the park, it would be #73.

Will definitely be back. — at Hords Creek Lake.

Hords Creek COE in Coleman, TX Site #73 50 amp Full hook up Pull through site March 2024

In the last 23 days, we’ve stayed in 6 parks, I have to say that this is my favorite park so far.

The site is roomy with lots of shade trees with a lakefront view (even though the lake is WAY down). Sites are not on top of each other.

There were a few people here when we arrived, but never heard a peep out of them.

The peace & quiet that we’ve experienced in this park is beyond words. Relaxation at its best!

When we come back, we’ll either get the same site, or #76. — at Hords Creek Lake- Lakeside Park.

I recently visited with my family, and we were pleasantly surprised by the tranquility and beauty of this hidden gem. We stayed at one of the RV sites near the lake, and the view was absolutely breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. The site itself was spacious, well-maintained, and equipped with all the necessary amenities. One of the highlights of our trip was renting a pavilion for a barbecue gathering with friends. The pavilion was conveniently located near our RV site and provided everything we needed, from running water and electricity to a large fireplace for cozy geometry dash evenings. The campground staff kept the pavilion and surrounding areas impeccably clean and groomed, adding to the overall enjoyable experience. Although the shower and toilet facilities were a bit of a walk from our site, we found them to be clean and well-maintained, which was much appreciated. Overall, Lakeside proved to be the perfect getaway for our family, offering a peaceful retreat amidst nature's beauty. We're already planning our next visit!

So let me start this review by saying we found the stretch of Odessa to Sweetwater a bit challenging as far as campgrounds. Several of the places we called were completely booked - the one campground told me that industry was booming and workers were camping because housing wasn’t available. This type of campground wouldn’t be my first pick.

However, it has many advantages - the gate was secure, the sites were level and had an extra parking space, the WiFi was good, booking online AND checking in online were super easy, it was reasonably priced and it was located right next to the interstate.

There is a pickleball court, sitting area and dog play area in the center of the campground (it’s not super large), but we could not find the laundry anywhere and we really needed to do laundry! The bathrooms were located at the front of the park at the gate, which seemed weird and it seemed like there was only two and that while your showering inside, someone who has no idea it’s occupied, is out there trying to punch in the code.

To me, if you need a quick and easy place to park for the night in an area where the other options are sparse, this is a great fit.

UPDATE There is no laundry - you have to go over to the truck stop to use laundry, but it’s not part of the campground.
