Balmorhea State Park Campground — Balmorhea State Park

Is very southwest style. Picnic tables have shade. Bathrooms are really nice with individual showers. Super quiet. We got in late, about 8 pm. There’s a place to leave CASH for your site and the board has a list of available sites for the evening. The evening was breezy so not a lot of mosquitos.

Very clean campground! Sites are nice and playground/group areas have nice green grass. Electric & water hookup. Staff was also great at check in. Spring Fed Oasis pool is cool as well. Coming during the week it isn’t busy & can enjoy it better. Also have great starlink reception here. Cell service available but spotty. Bath houses are in great condition. Very hot water available (which is so nice to have when traveling long term). Great stop passing through Texas.

Best place to vistist if you are heading out west. Do skip on the swimming.

you can stay at the park in their suites, or hook up campers/rvs.. Park is beautiful and great for kids.

wetlands area and small creek circling the property were a hit with the kids!

short drive to the lake where there is great fishing, large enough to allow small boats.

I have lived in Texas 50 yrs and had never been to West Texas...Mind BLOWN!!! We went in January and, while cold the first part of the week...17 degrees...being Texas, it was 80 by Friday...lol! The spring stays between 73-76 year round! My Husband even braved the cold and jumped in...Although, he claims the water was not that warm..LOL! The campgrounds had elec/H20 sites, covered picnic areas and nice grills. AND WARM SHOWERS!!!. And the most AMAZING SUNSETS I've ever seen!!! The pool is crystal clear and about 25 ft deep and the toe nibbling fish are cool too! I Highly recommend you look this place up, however, I saw that it's closed until March of 2019 for repairs to the pool itself and the campgrounds....BUMMER!

What an awesome spring fed pool! So crazy that this wetland and springs are in the middle of the desert. Stopped here to check out the park and were so pleased with the facilities. The nature program we participated in was informative yet fun. The campground is pretty average with decent sized sites and there is some privacy with the sheltered picnic tables. There is little to no shade and the sites all are in view of each other, but it’s to be expected in the desert :) Nice scenery around the campground.
