I found myself needing a hotel as my RV spot in Woodville didn’t work out. Just passing along that the Econo Lodge does have a very large gravel parking lot for big rig parking.

I booked my stay and called ahead that we would be arriving late.

It had rained like 4 inches the night before and the 2.5 mile old logging dirt road to get there was very nasty but doable.

I arrived around 10:30 pm. I found the office but it was all dark & locked. There was a recreation room I guess next door that wasn’t locked but no maps or signs or anything useful that I could see. I had no clue where to go or what my site number was supposed to be. My email confirmation from “The Dyrt” was all I had and it made me think maybe I was supposed to be at site number 8 by stating “No. of sites: 8”

I called & texted but got no response other than an automated text asking to text me back later.

I walked around in the woods in the dark with a flashlight & found site number 8 but it only had a 30amp hookup.

I drove and walked around looking for an empty spot with 50 amp service.

I attempted to try and stay at site 81 but again, no 50amp service.

I have severe sleep apnea so power is a must. If I had brought a 30 amp to 50 amp adapter then maybe I could have made it work.

After fighting and looking and attempting to call & text, I finally left and went to Jasper to get a hotel for the night.

I was very disappointed.

You should tell folks what site you’re putting them in & have a map to find it or at least answer the phone. If late arrival was going to be an issue you should have said something.

I came from Hempstead with 3 kids heading to my mom’s to visit her for the weekend. We were passing through on our way to Natchitoches. If I had known this was going to happen I would have stayed at Log Cabin RV but instead I had to lose about 2 hours, drive way out of the way on a very nasty road only to find that I had no place to stay that I could find. Not to mention end up paying $90 for a crappy room at the Econo Lodge in Jasper since it had truck parking.

Your place looks unique & I may be interested in returning sometime for the music but I guess after hours arrival must not be an option with you because this was a terrible experience.

There are many RV Parks near lake Conroe. If you don’t need a septic hookup, this one has the best price. Just a site to camp. Nothing fancy. Still under construction but exactly what we needed.
