    North Crest RV Park

    Great place

    We stayed there for 3 nights. The park is run by Emily and her father. Emily is friendly and there to make sure you have a nice stay. The park is filled with tall shade trees, nice to have in the summer heat. Located just off I-35 about 6 miles north of Baylor University.

    Cedar Creek Park Campground

    Great space - hard to find

    We love this spot. Definitely ignore google to get here though… just follow the road to the end (no turning off) there are campsites to your right and left once you reach the water. At least 27 of them. Quiet. Spaced out. Most had grill and water access and the lake is a super clean rock bottom one. Super peaceful.

    Steele Creek Park Campground

    free & full of nature - wonderful for nomads!

    We enjoyed this free campsite as we were making our way down to San Antonio, Texas. It had a water spicket, which was perfect for nomad living. We were able to wash our hair, cookware, rinse off, and enjoy free potable water. The small things, right? 

    The site we choose was private and in close walking distance to pit toilets. It has a small trail in the back, which led to the small lake. The dogs enjoyed being off-leash and the trees surrounding us was peaceful. The fire pit was wonderful and I can see why big groups would enjoy staying here!

    There was some fast-food trash around the campsite, but we did not mind picking it up. Reminder: leave it better than you found it. Overall: wonderful experience and perfectly comfortable free campsite for nomads. 

    Our Google Maps GPS was giving us issues on the entrance location of this site, since it is tucked away behind neighborhoods, so we relied on the maps and roads to lead us there.

    Camp Fimfo Waco

    Not a long term place

    My husband travels for work. We stayed here nine months out of the 11 months in Tx. We endured the high cost (1,200 per month) because the rate drops in the winter. They have many rules that they enforce when and to whom they feel like enforcing them to. My site was always tidy (no pets or children) but was informed that I would be fined 40 dollars (repeatedly) for having a small outside fridge until it was removed. Most parks do not allow mini fridges outside (some more strict than others). I had this fridge for NINE months, three other people had one as well. They did not get spoken to. This was the last straw, why we moved. Also, after nine months, they no longer allowed ANY mail to be delivered there. Prior to the fridge: They had an online issue and rented our spot and told us we had to move for a week. We stayed at the spot we moved to until they decided that this spot was not available for the summer to a full time renter. We move again. I saw three copperhead snakes while there. The issue, they do not mow regularly! My neighbor bought a push mower so his dog could go out and he could see snakes. The laundry rooms were absolutely disgusting and broken most of the time (I found a local laundry mat). They got new machines and they were still breaking down and very dirty. Dirty showers. Were told no outside wood. Have to purchase it from the store on site. The store is closed all week. Only open 3 days (winter, when you have fires), Fri, Sat & Sun. Five mile an hour speed limit, staff doses 20+ on golf carts. The road noise was incredibly loud for how far from the road the park is. The handful of lovely staff members was the only reason we stayed as long as we did.

    Soldier’s Bluff

    Nice Lake view

    I found this small camping site and it’s small but has good sites and nice lake view. Can sit by lake and have covered picnic tables. The camp sites are not covered but has enough tree coverage to make it shaded and I had pretty good wind to stay cool in the 93 degree heat. Has tent camping, and two RV slots and one truck stop which I used, it did need mowed when I was there but it was not to bad great view of the dam,

    North Crest RV Park

    Great hospitality and easy access

    We were looking for a simple place to stop overnight after driving all day toward Brownsville. One phone call and everything was handled by Emily - she even met us right at the gate and guided us to our spot. Sites are level, wide, and even shaded. We arrived around 9pm and departed 10 hours later - so level we didn’t even have to unhook. Very reasonable $55 for full hookups and a convenient place to spend the night.
