Edge Of The Waters

2 sites · RVs1 acre · Port Bolivar, TX
Waterfront RV Port on Bolivar Peninsula. Water, sewer, and electric (20-30-50 amp panel) Covered RV spot with a screen porch. Property is fenced and dogs are welcome. The screened has a dining table with chairs, and also stores some patio chairs to use on the property. They are really great to sit on the dock! There is also a charcoal grill and a crab trap for you to use. (You need a fishing license and bait. Chicken bones works great!) Fishing is great here... the canals have been dredged and folks are catching right of the back of their lots. Community fishing area is on the end of both Van Sant and Mabry, Mabry has a boat ramp. These you cast right off a drop to the intracoastal. Beach Access via community gate at end of street. Combination for those will be shared in arrival instructions. Spot is a residential lot... It is 60 x 130. Canal City is a quiet residential area. The back side fronts on the water. You will probably see more seagulls and purple martins than people. We have weekly discounts. Message me and I can go over them because the Hipcamp platform makes them difficult. It works out to approximately 7 nights for the price of 5. Be prepared: Bolivar has mosquitoes. This is the coast. If it has rained they can be really bad. The county sprays on a regular rotation but it can be bad. They tend to swarm when you pull in. Spray helps. We also send recommendations for what sprays work best for us in the arrival instructions. We do not offer refunds for mosquitoes. We have never found them unmanageable, and the screen porch keeps them almost entirely away. We are east of Rollover Pass. Easiest to arrive through Winnie and south on 124. Unless you are coming from Galveston or southeast Houston it is probably shorter. The ferry is fun (dolphins and such) but the waits can be long. Also: Do not bring loose propane tanks or gasoline cans on the ferry, they will send you away. (Propane on RV is fine, but that is all they allow) https://www.txdot.gov/discover/ferry-boat-schedules/ferry-rules.html

Eric And Jay's RV Resort

77 sites · RVs40 acres · Houston, TX
Eric and Jay’s RV Resort is a chic resort consisting of 114 RV pads in a gated, access-controlled community. The RV pads range in size with 30-foot back-ins, 40-foot extended length, and luxury pull-throughs. Each slip is outfitted with a picnic table and includes water, sewer and electric hook-ups as well as a fast fiber internet connection. The drive lanes are 20 - 28 feet wide allowing for easy maneuvering. Select pads feature a lake view, quick amenity access, private yards and/or covered parking. The resort is a stylish, amenity-laden destination offering a charming Texas Hill Country vibe in the midst of the exciting city life. The property is anchored by a clubhouse and pool terrace with a heated jacuzzi, a gazebo grilling/dining area, and an outdoor fire pit overlooking the large pond stocked for fishing. The modern Clubhouse features individual restrooms with showers, a fitness center, a game room, a business center, a lounge, a hospitality kitchen, and a laundry room. A major perk of staying at Eric and Jay’s is the immediate access to the City of Houston’s vast retail and transportation network. We have short-term guests coming for a long weekend to visit Houston and long-term guests embracing the close-knit community while not having to worry about a long commute.

RV camping near Bolivar Peninsula guide

Overview

Roll the RV into the Bolivar Peninsula—especially during spring and fall, when temperatures are mild and campers can experience a respite from Texas' hot, humid, and rainy summer weather. But no matter the time of year, RVers can set up camp on the peninsula or pack up the canoe, kayak, or stand-up paddleboard and drive west to Galveston Island State Park. Choose from three paddling trails to criuse down—Dana Cove, Jenkins Bayou, or Oak Bayou—then settle into an RV campground featuring picnic tables, fire rings, and hookups for electricity and water. Some campsites also have convenient access to restrooms and shower facilities. Discover more fun in Sea Rim State Park, where campers will find a mixture of back-in and pull-through RV campsites equipped with electrical hookups, water hookups, and outdoor grills for barbecuing. With over five miles of coastal shoreline to explore, Sea Rim State Park is the place to swim, sunbathe, and search for seashells. Even better? RVers bringing horses along for the trip can also go riding right on the beach.
