Not bad for parking lot camping
The Jacales loop is quiet and dark, but it's really just camping in a big parking lot with a picnic table, shade pavilion and grill for each site. There are water and electric at all sites, and each site has two large parking spaces.
Bathroom facilities are old and small. Cleanliness was ok, but moldy shower curtains are gross. (Womens and Men's each have one shower and both curtains were moldy.)
The bike trail that runs to town and to the historic locations was great. The park itself is a great place to learn about history, but we wouldn't spend more than a couple of nights in the Jacales loop while checking out the area.
Peaceful Getaway
Went to Goliad State Park unsure of what to expect. However, I was pleasantly surprised. My wife and I camped at the Jacales loop with a few friends. We were not expecting much given the close proximity to other sites but it turned out there was plenty of room to go around. The facilities were in good condition and the shower had amazing water pressure. Only downside was there was only one shower in the women’s restroom. Other thank that, everything was great.

Goliad state park
I’m from Goliad, so whenever I feel like getting outdoors I can just drive 15 minutes down the road to the park and enjoy a day hike or a weekend out in the woods. The park is awesome lots of Historic sites and lots of history in such a small town. The park has Tent sites, small cabins for rent and restrooms with showers that are always clean. They also have RV hook ups with plenty of room and shade trees. The nature trail is nice too. Definitely recommend for anyone that has not visited before.
