Victoria County offers several RV campgrounds with varying amenities and price points. Located along the Texas Gulf Coast, this area experiences hot, humid summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F and mild winters with occasional cold fronts. Most RV parks in the region remain open year-round, with spring and fall offering the most comfortable camping weather.
What to do
Explore the Guadalupe River: The Guadalupe at Cuero RV Park provides access to the slow-moving waters of the Guadalupe River. "Less than a mile off the highway, this RV Park feels further as it rests along the Guadalupe's slow moving water," notes Jake C.
Visit local attractions: When staying at Victoria City RV Park, campers can access nearby recreational facilities. "Along the river is an 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," writes Bradley H.
Fishing opportunities: Many parks provide fishing access, with some stocking their own ponds. At Southbound RV Park and Cabins, visitors appreciate the "stocked fishing pond" along with "full rv hookups," according to Jeremy C.
What campers like
Affordable full hookups: Budget-conscious campers appreciate the value at Victoria City RV Park. "Full hookups for $12 a day is definitely not a bad price at all," states kai E., though noting there are "no bathrooms, no shade."
Peaceful waterfront settings: Many RVers value the tranquility of waterfront locations. James P. says Texas Lakeside RV Resort offers a "nice and peaceful" environment, adding, "Spend a little more and get a water front site. Concrete pads, nice FHU stations."
Well-maintained facilities: Clean, organized campgrounds rank high with visitors. Curtis K. describes Texas Lakeside RV Resort as a "Very Beautiful Gated RV Park, well maintained lawn, large club house with pool. Large catch and release fish pond in the middle."
What you should know
Site configurations vary: Some parks offer spacious sites while others are more compact. Kenny at Gateway to the Gulf RV Park notes, "The sites are back-to-back. Not long enough to park both my truck and 5th wheel. I had to park my truck offsite."
Weather considerations: The Victoria area experiences tropical weather patterns, with occasional storm systems affecting coastal campgrounds. Plan accordingly during hurricane season from June through November.
Cell service and Wi-Fi: Internet connectivity is important to many campers. Magnolia Beach RV Park receives praise for connectivity, with rspillers84 noting, "Wi-Fi included at no additional charge and the bandwidth was good."
Tips for camping with families
Recreational options: Families should consider parks with dedicated play areas. Southbound RV Park and Cabins offers a "playground" alongside their dog park and other amenities, making it suitable for families with children.
Beach access: For families seeking water activities, coastal options provide additional recreation. Paul James B. reports, "We stayed here for a week this summer and loved it! The beach is just a short walk away, and my wife and kids really enjoyed our morning walks."
Local history: Educational opportunities exist near many campgrounds. When staying at Angels In Goliad RV Park, Dennis B. recommends to "Make sure to learn about the history of the town from them," referring to the knowledgeable hosts.
Tips from RVers
Surface considerations: RV campers should be aware of pad and road conditions. Julio E. at Twin Lakes RV Park advises, "If you're too concerned about getting your rig dirty on a rainy day stay away. The slots are paved and new! The drives are gravel, but slots are paved."
Dump station options: RVers needing to service tanks have several options. Wayne R. suggests Magnolia Beach RV Park as a "Great place to dump, fill and charge batteries before or after free camping at Magnolia beach."
Hookup reliability: Quality utility connections matter to RVers. Shiner T. observed that Angels In Goliad RV Park has "Gravel pads. New hookups," indicating recently upgraded facilities.
