Texhoma Park Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Free overnight parking with full hookups sits right on Route 87 in Dumas, making Texhoma Park Campground a practical stop for RV travelers moving through the Texas Panhandle. The city of Dumas operates the facility at no charge, though several reviewers note a donation box would be welcome and encourage visitors to contribute what they can. Around 20 paved pull-through sites include 20, 30, and 50-amp electric service along with water and sewer hookups, accommodating rigs up to 50 feet. A dump station, potable water fill, and dumpsters round out the utility setup.

The park functions as a gravel-and-pavement lot more than a traditional campground, but it includes a dog park, a shaded playground, and picnic areas that make it functional for families and pet owners. Sites are paved and spaced well enough that campers don't feel crowded. After rain, puddles can form in spots, so arrival timing matters if the weather has been wet. The park is well lit at night, and multiple reviewers mention Texas DPS making regular rounds through the area.

Noise is the main planning consideration here. The park sits adjacent to a railroad crossing, and trains pass at irregular hours, including late at night. Preston G. advises tent campers to "plan on sleeping with earplugs or earbuds," while Michele A. notes she "heard no trains come through after bedtime," suggesting variability in the schedule. Road noise from Route 87 adds a background hum. RV campers appear less affected than tent campers.

Spots fill up by evening, particularly on weekends. Arriving before 7 p.m. gives the best chance of securing a site. Cell service has come up in a couple of reviews without consistent conclusions, so downloading maps in advance is a reasonable precaution. The campground is open year-round, and the electric hookups are especially useful during hot Panhandle summers. Campers wanting a more traditional RV park setup can find that at Dumas RV Resort a few miles south, or check out Yerby's Mobile Home & RV Park as another nearby option.

Many visitors appreciated this free municipal campground for its excellent electric hookups, water/dump facilities, and family amenities. Train noise throughout the night is the main drawback, but most found the value unbeatable for overnight stops.

Free camping with electric.

Very nice open parking area with 9 poles each have 2 receptical boxes for a total of 18. Boxes all have 20, 30 and 50 amp receptacles. Nice stop on my way to Colorado. There is a donation box near the sign. I donated. I hope everyone does to help keep this open for fellow travelers. As of 5 pm there are about 6 other campers here on a Thursday.

Bring earplugs

Though it was a nicely maintained and welcoming park, if you are tent camping, plan on sleeping with earplugs or earbuds as it is right next to a railroad and you will hear trains honking every couple of hours. RVs can likely get away without such precautions, so I would only recommend this park for them.

Nice Dumas hospitality

Appreciate the city of Dumas offering this free overnight service. Sites are paved and not overly close. The playground seemed generous in size for families & very shady. The water spigot is easily accessed. Located right on Rt 87 as we were transiting toward CO from north TX so it was very handy. We couldn’t find a donation box or would have put $20 in as thanks. We much appreciated having a well lit safe place to plug in for the night. Heard no trains come through after bedtime. It was pretty full when we woke up but it very quiet throughout the night so everyone was very thoughtful of their traveling companions. Good experience.

Great stay

Great stop in the city of Dumas, even better that it’s free. Large open spaces to park multiple RVs, especially if you’re traveling in a group. Great Electrical hook ups water and dump station are off to the side. They do ask for a donation which I encourage everyone to give them a little bit that way they can keep it free. They do have a separate dog park and a playground for kids.

Great Onenighter Spot

This is a great little overnight spot. My daughter and I tented it in the grassy area to the north of the camper spots. The train is cool at first but got old at 3am, nothing the AirPods couldn’t fix though. I will definitely use it again in the future.

Great Overnight Spot

A parking lot with 20 electric hook-up sites in a municipal setting.  There's a dog park, a playground for kids or a picnic.  Dump station and water available plus several dumpsters.

The only downside is the trains that run all hours and blow horns as they pass the intersection right outside the park.  

We were in a camper van and would stay there again.

One night perfection

Perfect for an overnight stop., on the way to somewhere else. Spots are easy pull through, all paved, but does have some issues if it's rained recently with puddles. Has a dog park, water and dump. Sites are all the same with Handicap accessible areas to dog park and around camping plug-in sites.  bathrooms are cinderblock, building construction with plunged toilet and sink, no shower.

Thank you City of Dumas!

Texoma Park is just what we needed.

Pulled in, filled the fresh tank, dumped the others and found a parking spot for the night. 

Excellent electric hook ups (although it appears there's one station out of service). 

Playgrounds and picnic areas, dog park. 

Yes, there's a train that ran up till about 10pm and returned at 3:30 am. 

As a parking lot it got seriously hot before sun down but cooled off nicely over night (late June). 

We would definitely stay again.

Simple, but effective

Simple - nothing fancy. Seems like the trash dumpsters were in need of being emptied. This place will meet the need of giving you a place to lay your head at night (in your RV) - but not too much else.

Still the best value

Yes, this is just a parking lot with electric hook-ups. There is also water available (not at sites) and a dump station, and a playground. We have always met friendly fellow travelers here. It is better to get here in early afternoon to get a better site. It can get very crowded when full, almost overlapping slide-outs. So we try to get an "outside" site to avoid having such close neighbors.

Great FREE overnight RV camping with electric!

This is a city park just outside of the center of town and highway. Its really a gravel parking lot with around 20 spots to park with electric hookups (20, 30, and 50 amp) that allows FREE camping for 24 hours. There is a dumpster, dump station, and potable water fill up. Bathrooms but no showers (bathrooms were older and not the nicest).

This place fills up so it's suggested you get the earlier in the day if possible. We arrived at 7:45 pm on a Saturday and got the last spot. There is a train nearby which went off several times before 11 when it stopped all together. Some traffic noise but all in all you can beat free with electric especially in the Texas heat
