Circle B RV Park

First, the plus side: inexpensive, neighborhood seems friendly, close to town.  Things to consider: very neglected looking with weeds, trash, and unused stuff just sitting around; showers and bath house inoperable; no manager on site so resident yelling, slamming doors, banging on stuff at all hours of the night is never addressed; free range dogs, cats, even a goat!  With only a little work, it could certainly attract many from the Walmart lot!

When traveling through this area you will drive for miles and miles of desolation. Fort Stockton is one of the largest towns you will reach on this section of road until you get to El Paso. You would think that there would be some options for accommodation for those to rest their weary heads when traveling. Are there a few hotels here. Yes. But what about those pulling an RV or wanting to tent camp?

I checked out this site in hopes of finding a tent camping site. What I found was a location. which could accommodate RV travelers, but is often used by long term stay traffic from companies in the area. A. lot of oil field traffic here, reserving sites for weeks on end.

Despite the long term nature of many of the visitors it didn't appear to be the typical scene you find with lots of underpinning. It was however a dusty park because of the lack vegetation in the area. With high winds it can be a bit dusty at the park.

Typical amenities are offered for short or long term stay. The park is located very central to local businesses including laundry, restaurants and grocery stores. But perhaps the things I would recommend if making your way through this park for a night or even a longer span is checking out the historic Fort Stockton and the most infamous giant RoadRunner of Fort Stockton.

These places of local tourism are only a short 3-5 minute drive from the park and while the RoadRunner is free to see the Fort is $5.

Tips:

• Use this stop as a refuel station if heading West the prices were reasonable and provided the last real stop for tourists.

• Stop along the way at the Texas Safety Stop not to far from Fort Stockton for an additional little bit of West Texas History and a place to stretch your legs.
