An older park located near down town on the north side of Amarillo. All pull-thrus with mature shade trees. No fancy landscaping and the interior roads could use some work, but a reasonably priced alternative to the more elaborate RV parks out on the Interstate. Located across the street from a large city park with golf, zoo, swimming pool and amusement park. Right on busy Highway 287, so expect some highway noise. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

A typical KOA, clean and well laid out, friendly staff, level sites, dog run etc. We enjoyed the limo ride to the Big Texan and really did not notice excessive road noise and only a couple of A/C on approach but is really not an issue for us. We will stay here again on the return trip. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was an easy stop right of off the high way. However, you have to contend with a lot of road noise that does not die down. Also, you are right at the end of an airport runway. The planes stop sometime after 10pm but start right up again around 6am. We were also kept awake by the constant noise of trains. On a good note, the WiFi service was good here and the staff was very friendly and helpful. If given a choice, I would not stop here again due to all the noise pollution.

Enjoyable stay - rate included tax and was for a weekly rate of $203 - enjoyable place out in the country. We enjoyed watching the helicopters flying in and out of the airport across the way. The park owners were very friendly and the park was quiet. A very nice enclosed dog run which our dog enjoyed very much. The dog had not seen jack rabbits before so all 8 lbs of her wasn't sure about them, so enjoyed the fence between her and them in the dog run. Very easy park to negotiate both in entering and also in siting. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Overall a very nice campground just outside of town. We stayed one night. It was easy to find. We didn't get to talk to the staff because we arrived late and left early, but they left very good instructions for finding our site. They had a lot of rain and roads were muddy. But our site was grass. The campground was next to airport but we didn't hear any noise. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park was nice stop-over for our two week trip to the northern US. Campsites are very level, and the restrooms were in really nice shape. Pool was nice break from the 100 degree weather! The trip to the campground was a little interesting, in that you have to pass a few "adult entertainment" venues, so we needed to explain what "XXX" meant to the kids. That was fun!! Overall, I would stay there again for a short visit. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stayed here for 3 nights. Found it a very nice place. The first night the lady in the office said we should go to the Texas steak house to eat and called for a limo to come pick us up. It is part of the steak house service. It was fun. The park is located right off the highway so it was easy getting on and off to go sight seeing. Didn't hear any traffic. Park is clean and well taken care of We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Over priced!! There are better campgrounds in the area cheaper. You are in a large field located on the back side of the airport. So planes start leaving at 7:00 in the morning. The trains also run all night. There is no traffic noise though since you are away from the highway. But my main complaint is the cost. I just booked a resort located on the other side of town for $33 a night that includes free laundry and adult spa etc. I think you get the point!! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Over priced compared to other 10 KOA campgrounds I have stayed at which averaged 27$. Forced to pay for 5 gallons propane when only needed 2.5 and was mis-led by attendant who stated "you probably wont need to get 5 gallons" at time of fill. De-meaning attitudes. Will not camp hear again and will post my review on all RV forums. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A clean, well kept park convenient to I-40 (about 2 miles off the interstate). Good hookups and level sites. The cable reception wasn't very clear, but the WiFi was good. They have a well-stocked and classy little convenience store on site. Although the park is located in an acceptable area (near an open field), you will drive by numerous XXX establishments on your way there. However, don't get the impression that it's an inner city setting, because it's not like that at all. Be prepared for wind! I give it a 7 instead of an 8 because it is overpriced compared to similarly good KOA's that I've seen. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I oftentimes check out the reviews just to see what campgrounds sound like wonderful places to visit! We've stayed at some wonderful campgrounds thanks to this website! I noted the recent particularly negative review (Jan 2008), about the Amarillo KOA & I haven't left a recent post on it, so now I am. We have stayed at this park every August on our way to & from northern New Mexico. Yes, you have to pass by a mobile home park & fields to get there & there is occasional airplane & train sounds (from a distance), but those are the only negatives that I can think of! During our last stay this past August, their sewer system had been accidentally damaged by someone, in another area digging into the city's sewer line, thus affecting the KOA park. They were decreasing the campers fee to compensate for the inconvience & allowing campers to empty their gray water tanks, just not black water. They were very apologetic about the situation & I'm sure by now, the city has fixed the mishap. The staff is very friendly & goes over & beyond in making campers stay pleasant. They also escort you to your site & stay around to make sure your pleased. We did see the cute hayride wagon loaded with campers & it was darling! The park also furnishes cute little cycles to ride around the park in. Their pool is immaculate (I know, I'm an avid swimmer) & their gift shop is darling! Their grocery area in the office is very well stocked & reasonably priced. The cable & wifi work well & wonderful cookies are given out at registration. The campground is very clean & pretty much quiet! Will we go back there? Absolutely! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Drive to park makes for nice surprise once there. Staff is friendly, helpful. Park is clean and well cared for. Store has great gifts, food items. Pool just opened was crystal clear. They were putting in either new or more cabins which were very nice. Laundry clean, game room, nice. Next door an airport but not too overwhelming. If you like military planes you can see a few landing and taking off. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice staff that were helpful getting us a ride to the Big Tex, limo with horns on the front. Campground is close to the airport, not busy but occasional noise. Big dip when coming off of the main road, had to work the angles to not scrape. Sites were gravel and level, no trees where the pull thrus are. Pricey for what was there.

An older KOA but lots of wide-open space around the park and clean restrooms/showers. Decent wifi and cable. Nice owners. Funny feature is that there's a pack of wild jackrabbits that live near the pet walk area. My dog thought they were the weirdest looking "dogs" she'd ever seen hopping around and such! Even though the park is adjacent to the airport land, there is virtually no planes at night so it's quiet (but during the day, there can be an occasional military or commercial jet).

This KOA is a nice park to stay overnight. There is a little train noise. During the day you can hear some airport nice, but there is no airport noise at night. The playground is not as thrilling that most kids dream about. The pull-thru have no shade, but the back-ins do have some shade. None the less this is a nice park to stay overnight.

This park is located near the Amarillo airport where the other Amarillo RV parks are located too. The park staff is very friendly and the WIFI worked great. The Big Texas Restaurant nearby will pick you up in a limo (with longhorns on the hood) at the KOA for free. This was alot of fun and I would recommend the experience for anyone visiting Amarillo.

Clean sites, older KOA. Main drawback was the area where it was located in Amarillo. The area looked run down. Some noise from the airport, but not unbearable. I appreicated all of the signs posted to warn customers of potential bad weather in the area. Very comforting touch. There are nicer RV parks in this area, but it seems to be one of the most family friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great park. There's a lot to do, with a pool, mini-golf, a diner area, and many friendly people. Most sites are at least partially shaded. The other review here mentioned that this would be a good destination RV park. I found that hard to believe, but now we'd like to go back to spend a weekend. It's that nice, and Amarillo seems like it has some things to do as well. There's a dragstrip a couple of miles away.
This place is very well run by an energetic young couple. The only thing that detracts (and earns a 9 rating rather than a 10) is that there are no trash bins around. You leave your trash outside, and they come around and pick that up. While that's somewhat convenient, it's also a bit smelly. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was an excellent park. We were coming back from Taos NM and spent 1 night here. The pool was wonderful for the kids. The rest rooms were clean. This park is a couple of miles from the interstate but easy to find and worth the drive. It is easy to get to and quiet. The store was wonderful and they had a dinner wagon if you want. We chose to go to the Big Texan which is right down the road. It was excellent too. We are planning on returning and making Amarillo our destination because we liked the place so well. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Parks appears to be an older but nicer mobile home park that was converted to an RV Park. Accordingly, hook-ups might be a bit unusual necessitating a pull-in/back-out parking at some sites, but really not a problem. Sites are wide, some have trees. Even saw cotton-tailed rabbits in the park! Very accommodating and friendly hosts with escort to the site with care taken to be sure hook-ups are adequate for your rig. Easy access from I-40, but that comes with traffic noise. Since we were running the A/C, was no problem. Electric service was adequate, even with 100 degree temperatures. Good water pressure. Limo from Big Tex Steakhouse a few blocks away will pick you up in the park free. Coffee and donuts in the morning at the office! A good overnight stay! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The big advantage to this park is the easy access to the interstate (and it is a Camp Club USA park). The owners were very helpful. The site was plenty level and hooking up was a snap. The cable hookups were a big plus. Within a couple of miles from the park is the famous Big Texan steak house. (And it was _the best_ steak I have ever had!) Be aware that even though the sites by the office are "pull-through" you will want to make sure to plan your exit as going the wrong way will put you on a dead end (and it's not so easy to extricate yourself when pulling a car). The biggest downside to the park is how quickly the pool closes. The pool closes at the same time as the office (8 pm). But it does have a very nice pool area. A hard-wire internet connection is also available in the office if you cannot connect via the wireless or you need a more secure connection. I will definitely stay again if I am in the area.

Old park, with poorly maintained grounds and roads. We stopped here because of the promise of fenced dog runs (which were really tiny). Helpful front office folks drive you to your site. We were happy to have a little grass alongside the site (well, the dog was happy), but feel that $33 (before Good Sam discount) is a lot. There is an indoor pool with hottub, which we didn't use. That may explain the price. Weather was poor, so we opted not to find a state park, but that might've been a smarter move.... We camped here in a Motorhome.

C/G has all of the facilities one would expect from a higher rated campground so I will only add to the previous reviews. Pool is indoors. Overnight sites aren't spacious, but the rest of the park sites have plenty of space between them. Free Wi-Fi in the club house, but on site it is a pay for use system. Some playground equipment for kids. Plenty of cable channels. Water pressure and voltage was very good. Rate reflects a Passport America discount. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were traveling thru from New Mexico to Maine. Using the Woodall's book we picked this particular park. My wife and I were very pleased, the staff were very friendly, the sites were really, really large and the park was easy on/off the highway. My wife and I visited the well-known steak house down the road and had a great one night stay during our travels here. I would visit again. I would have given it a 9 but the road/highway can be heard at night. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a very attractive, clean, quiet park. We were escorted to our site and the lady was most helpful when it came to parking our rig as the spot was tight. Once in, however, we had plenty of room for the slideouts. Being able to walk our dogs is very important, and they provide a nice area for that.

We have stayed here a few times before and it is a nice park with a good rate for Passport America. It probably used to be a mobile home park and the entry to the site is over a rounded curb. The sites are big with lots of grass and level. It has a pool and a spa that are nice to use. The wifi is $3 for 24 hours and is the usual park wifi that is great to poor depending. If you are using PA you need to make a reservation the day before staying. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This place is clean and well kept. No noise from the other campers. And it is the closest park to the Big Texan restaurant, which I would heartily recommend - they even have limo service from the campground to the restaurant and back, which is great if you don't want to unhook. All that being said, it is very noisy with I40 running right by and truck noise all night. But I didn't see any other park in Amarillo that was any better, so I would stay here again.

Lots of grass (alot of mowing going on!), some trees and fairly roomy sites where I was placed. I stayed two days and at $48 for that, using Passport America and Good Sam's, it was a little pricey! Nice clean pool. The I-40 freeway is close enough that there is plenty of noise and there is construction which makes finding the campground a little difficult. Campground is either full time residents or overnighters, but all is very neat and well kept. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Aesthetically, this parks looks very nice when pulling in. We had a nice site, although not one of their oversized sites as advertised. We had full hookups. Internet costs $3 if you wanted it from the site. Otherwise, WIFI was available in the clubhouse for free. Coffee and donuts in the AM. We had a nice big shade tree, a level gravel site, and a picnic table. This could be one of the nicer campgrounds with some updating. The noise from the highway and the water park were there but did not disturb our sleep. We did not use the indoor pool. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is right next door to a water park and a short ride to the heart of Amarillo. There was a nice hot Jacuzzi and indoor pool. We really enjoyed the American Quarter Horse Museum and recommend it to everyone, even if they weren't previously horse lovers. Also "Cadillac Ranch" is just up the road and a quirky roadside attraction no one should miss! We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stopped here for one overnight stay only on our way home. Didn't use the facilities at all, but the staff was very nice. They directed us to our spot, even though we arrived after the office was closed. They didn't charge us for our 2 kids (one was under 12 and they comped us for the 16-yr old since we didn't use the facilities). Nice, older park - some highway noise, but not too bad. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is an older park that looks like it was built as a mobile home park. Still has several mobile homes in the back. The spaces are long since they were designed for mobile homes. Our "pull-thru" site was piggy-backed behind another RV that was leaving the next day as we were. We were supposed to wait until they left before we left. The free WI-FI was available only in the clubhouse. We were told that there was a charge for WI-FI access from the RV sites. We found two unsecured WI-FI connections from our campsite, one being the same as available in the clubhouse. I was unable to send email from the park's WIFI connection. We enjoyed the roadrunners and rabbits in the park. We would stay here again as long as we could get the Passport America rate. Without the PA discount, it is too expensive. The PA discount is not available to walk-ins, but only with reservations. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park Sites are large and roomy, but except for a small pad you're in dirt. If it rains you're in mud. The Showers although clean have an unpleasant odor much like a combination of mold and pool chemicals. We had a bad 30-amp circuit breaker, which we had to keep resetting. This was reported to the park management and was told they would repair the breaker the following day. They never did. We had to purchase a 50-amp to 30-amp converter to have uninterrupted electricity. Most of the hot tub jets were either broken or not working. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

As stated by other reviewers the park is readily accessible from I-40 and capable of handling any big rig. The management is trying to keep the grass green but having problems due to the drought in this area. The Wifi is weak and hard to access. This is a nice park for an overnight or couple of day visit. They honor Passport America but only with cash or check payment. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Right off the interstate so easy to get to without a lot of road noise. My rate was $26 with Good Sam. Large park with trees, but no shade for the rv itself, and today was hot and windy. The grassy areas lacked watering and were dry. A dog walk area which is adequate but they don't want dogs walked around the park other than the dog area so it is limiting. This is just a big park that has what you need for overnight, but unless you need to be in Amarillo, nothing to recommend it for longer. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A really nice, clean, spacious RV park with wide, long spaces and all the amenities except wi-fi. You can get free wi-fi in the office, but it is slow, and, if you pay for wi-fi, you get a faster speed but it is $3.00 per day and the sign on procedure is ridiculous each time you use it. I would give it a 10 except for the wi-fi. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is an easy park to get to. You can see it from I-40. The pull-thru site we were in was gravel but we also had a choice of a pull-thru on grass. The gravel was easy to level and the grass may have been a little more difficult. Some sites have picnic tables, but not all. Good hook-ups. The staff was friendly and helpful. The campground was clean and all the sites were neat. We were escorted to our site. There is nothing to separate you from the rig next to you. The sites are somewhat close, but there is plenty of room to put out slides and not right on top of your neighbor. There is a large indoor, heated pool which is open during office hours. The laundry room was clean. The machines were older, and the cost was $1.00 per washer and $1.00 per dryer. The restrooms were clean. The showers do not have a separate dressing area, but they do have a hook and a chair, and are wide enough to keep your clothes from getting wet. I did not use the shower however. Both the laundry and the restrooms have locked doors requiring a code to get in - or you can go in through the office. Good cable reception with many channels. There is a complimentary breakfast every morning. The office area is large with several tables, couches and TV. There is Internet access in the office. I chose to pay $3/day for the convenience of using it in the coach. It was a good connection. Passport America is honored for one night with a reservation. We would stay here again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A fairly nice RV park. Good paved roads, sites are dirt/gravel and pretty level. Good cable tv. Park was quiet. Spaces are wide and they have nice pull through sites. Park is located on the East end of town, close to the intersection of Hwy. 40 and Hwy. 287. Access to the park is quite easy. Attendant will guide you to your site and explain all of their hookups. We stayed here 1 night in our 5th Wheel, would stay here again when traveling through the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is one of the better Passport parks we have stayed in. We had a nice long level 50 amp spot. As mentioned before we took the limo to a local steakhouse for dinner. Staff was friendly and there seemed to be many amenities. We only stayed one night since we need to get home. But we would stay here again and see more of Amarillo. Grass and gravel sites. Grass was not looking great but this is dry part of Texas. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a large park. Some of the sites are laid out in an unusual manner. The site we stayed in were side by side using the same water post (two faucets on the same location), cable on a splitter from one source. Electric in the same box. I asked for a 30amp but was given the 50amp of the box that the person next to me was using. WiFi cost unless you go into the office. Large gift shop. People working here are nice and are work campers. I am a member also. They were not very familiar with some of the local facilities. It rained heavily the night we stayed. Had to level the trailer over 2”. The area is a tourist trap and they get a lot of business. If you stay here go over to the Flying J and have a good Chicken Fried Steak. I would stay here again if I came through. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I agree with the other comments, no sense in repeating. The work camper staff are quite friendly and helpful. They only allow one Passport America night, we used Good Sam discount for subsequent nights. It should be noted that there was an "electric surcharge" of $2 or $3 per night (can't remember which) under the Passport America rate of $15. Not a real big deal. They should take the lead with other parks and provide free WiFi, instead of charging by the day. We would come back if passing through the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great food there. Pool was clean and heated. Hot tub was covered over but management was quick to tell us know they would open it up if we wanted to use it.

It's hard to beat the price (Passport America rate) for a one night stay. We wanted an E'S in/out pull-thru long enough not to have to unhook our tow vehicle. We got all that convenience and more. Staff (Front Desk & Escort to site) were welcoming and friendly. WiFi was available for free if you used the Office facilities. I signed up with their Provider (The Wireless Web) right on line in my own Coach & they accepted a credit card for the $3/day fee. My Verizon Broadband Access was not available & went into ROAMING mode so I was glad to take what the RV Park had to offer since the signal was good. The property has the look of a former mobile home community and there are still some of those permanent residents adjacent. However, it also seems like the owners/Mgmt have plans to redesign certain areas and update them to accomodate Big Rig visitors. For the value alone, we would return for an overnight just to watch the Park's progress. It could be one of the better places to stay and we wouldn't mind recommending them if they continue to offer generous discounts to those just passing through. We camped here in a Motorhome.

My wife and I stopped for one night in February and liked it so much we stayed two weeks. We then went on with our journey and came back to this park and stayed for another 6 days. We had some problems with our motorhome on our first stay and the owner/manager went out of his way to help us not only find the parts but also helped us repair our motorhome. The sites were very clean, large and the staff was super friendly. Even though I-40 is close by and convenient, the noise was not that bad as described. As for the airplane noise, there is a SAC base near by and once in a while during the day a plane would fly over. As for the issue of the odor from the feed lots, when you're in cattle country, you should expect what comes with it when the wind blows in the right direction. Yes, we will return to this RV park any time we are in the neighborhood even if we have to travel out of our way to get there. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is nothing but a big dirt and gravel pit. There are a few shrubs that they call trees but not enough to provide any shade. The staff is friendly enough but the owner is a crotchety old man who is anything but customer friendly. They claim to be away from the airport but we had numerous planes overhead landing at the local airport. The rail yard must be close by was we had trains blowing their horn all day and night. The park in right next to busy I-40 with trucks and traffic roaring by all day and night. When the wind is blowing, which is almost all of the time the place smells like a barn yard or feed lot. Some of the lots are large but covered in pea gravel that makes footing unsure and hazardous. We would not recommend this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

That's a Passport-America rate. Campground is a good place to stop for an overnight due to it's proximity to I-40. Be aware that if you're driving west, you turn right when you get off the interstate. Our GPS told us to turn right (and the directions from the website) told us to turn left and we ended up at an "exotic club". Absolutely nothing fancy about this campground. Full hookups and that's it. Also located under the flight path for the Amarillo International Airport which is sort of interesting the first time a big 4-engine jet flies over your RV! No flights after around 10:00 though. Propane and convenience store across the road. There are permanent sites but residents are friendly. Inexpensive place to use as base camp to visit Amarillo, Lake Meredith, or Palo Duro Canyon. We wouldn't hesitate to stop here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

As all other reports state, no rest rooms or showers. And the entrance looks pretty seedy, but for big rigs, the pull through sites are at least 80 ft long. The site is basic and level with easy entrance and exit. The rate shown is a Passport rate, otherwise it was $22.00. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Definitely just a place to stop overnight & pull out early the next morning. No amenities at all but the price is right. Easy access off and on I-40. Airport nearby but no planes in or out after 9 p.m. so not a problem. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very very basic pull in for the night & pull out in the morning type place. No facilities at all except a convenience store across the road for coffee or ice. Airport nearby but last plane goes over about 9 p.m. Very convenient to I-40. As earlier review stated, the park is nothing to look at & the permanents that are there are pretty rundown but are no problem to overnight visitors. $10 rate is for Passport America, 50% discount.

Very basic park offering exactly what is advertised: "specializing in overnight sites for the weary I-40 cross-country traveler". Entry to campground looks very run-down and there's an old pool no longer in use with weeds growing in it. Registration and payment are self-serve; campground is clean, and sites are level. It is fine for people like us who just want a reasonably-priced, convenient place to park for a night or a few nights. It is close to the airport, and planes do fly over on the approach; however, the airport is not very busy. Very convenient to I-40 and very little road noise from it. There are no restrooms, laundry or showers available. Overall, for $10 (the Passport America rate) this park is fine--just don't expect more than the bare basics. The main reason we rated it a "3" is because of the run-down entry appearance. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We spent a night here on our way to Albuquerque. The location was good because the west side of town is where all the "chain" restaurants, big mall, and etcetera are located. While I thought the campground was good overall, it highlighted issues in advertising and ratings in the RV guides (i.e. Trailer Life). For example, their ad states "Big Rigs Love Our Sites!" Well, I only have a 38 ft motor home, but (especially with the pick-ups parked in specific locations) found it tight to get in (if I wanted to avoid the low overhang) and make some turns. So, while big rigs can fit, I'm not sure that I would claim that they "love" the park. Also, Trailer Life gave the restrooms a 10*. While they were well-equipped and clean, age has taken its toll and it was the first RV park restroom I've every been in that did not provide some sort of privacy for dressing or undressing to get in or out of the shower. I would never give this type of setup a 10. I only used the wi-fi for a short time, but it worked well for that short period. We would stay here again. My wife also loved the gift shop. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is yet another older RV park. We would not classify it as a 'resort'. Spaces were rather tight for a big rig, although lengthy enough for the rig and the tow. There is a great little gift shop. There are too many permanent residents for us to want to stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very good overnight, friendly staff and clean CG. Unbelievable gift store, I am not sure how they could sell enough to break even, it is incredible how much stuff is in there. Also the owner must love signs as there are signs everywhere in the CG. Specifically about dogs and where they are not allowed. Lovely center garden with water features although it is all fenced in and does not encourage you to walk in and enjoy. Also all the sites have picket fences separating each sites, although wide enough for our 4 slides, but still strange. We will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A so-so park--from the other people who had rated the park, we chose this one in Amarillo for a one night stay...it is not as fabulous as others have described...the roadways are rough..no one in the office on Sunday eve..the Wi-Fi worked good only after you dialed a number and ask for the password and ID...anyway not a bad park, but I would not go out of my way to stay here again.

We stayed here for a night. I could not help myself and went up into the turrets on the corners! Tennis courts, pond, fountain, walks in the center (no pets). Slots are narrow (but room for slides), with picnic table and some patios. There are separation fences. If you have time stick your head in the store. I imagine that this is a good park for kids. Good park but check out cautions below. Wildlife: Check out the ground hog action next door (abandoned factory just to the east). Worth a look just to see the action. Caution 1 – Web lovers – Recommend do not use the Web form but call for reservations. Caution 2 – GPS users - Call for directions – Address maps to several wrong locations in town. True location is out west of town past Loop 335 (Exit 64 on I40) and actually on old root 66! Caution 3 – Tow vehicles / low clearance - there is a deceptive entrance and clearly folks scrape tow hitches etc. Come in slow and at an angle. Caution 4– Tall Rigs - Registration has a 13 foot rain port. Drive to the right and you can bypass. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice and well kept park. Nice grassy park-like area in center with fountain, "stream", and sitting areas. Tennis court, putting green, etc. Really nice gift shop (but that may cost you more than the site!) Sites are close together but each is divided by a short fence. Not much in the way of shade. Reasonable price of under $30 with senior discount. Easy access to I-40. BUT, some may be bothered by continuous I-40 noise a couple hundred yards behind park. However, it is far enough away to be not too bothersome. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great hospitality. Although the campsite was limited, the facilities were superior. They have private showers which was very nice. If you have dogs, there is not much to do. There's a park 3 miles away if you're up for a drive, but the park itself has limited exercise area for bigger dogs. If you have a small dog, you'll be fine as they have small dog runs. We stayed a couple of nights and had pizza delivered to our RV. This was a nice accommodation after a long day of driving. These folks don't work on Sunday, so if this bothers you, you might want to think twice about staying here. It didn't bother us! We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved this park, and were so impressed with the creativity in design of the sites and amenities. The pull-through sites were angled perfectly, and separated from one another by a board fence and small garden for each site. Laundry was inexpensive, clean, and convenient, bathrooms sparkling clean, indoor swimming pool was sparkling clean. Workout room was equipped with 2 treadmills, bike, weight machine, and free weights. Hot tub was being moved to a spot in the pool building while we were there. There is a whole new rec building with a generous basement game room which doubles as storm shelter. Family owned & operated, with a great deal of pride. Convenient to Amarillo new and old.

There were lots of activities to do on at the Fort Amarillo RV Resort. The kids especially enjoyed the stocked catch and release fishing pond. They have an indoor swimming pool and a few arcade games. A very nice store and gift shop. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The sites were small and gravel but level. Most were pull throughs with some back-ins. There were fences that devided the sites and there was a small cement patio and with a little grass. Landscaping around the center of the park was very nice. We would have gived a better rating, but it is not a very pet friendly park. There are some dog runs, but they are dirt and that is the ONLY place they want you to take them to walk. There are "no dogs allowed" signs everywhere. We would definetly camp here again.

Just a touch-up for 2008. (Rate was with a Good Sam discount.) I rate this park as a 10, something I’ve done only once a year since we started traveling in 2003. I agree with all of the previous positive remarks and none of the negative ones (the sites are plenty wide enough for 3 slides and an awning, and if you don’t like desert dust then don't visit a desert). However, I see in the reviews no mention of the new building at the north east corner of the park. It houses a large indoor pool – heated to 85 degrees – a soon-to-be installed spa and showers/restrooms that are so sparkling that I initially thought that the floors were wet from a recent cleaning. When you enter one of the six restrooms you get your own shower, vanity and toilet: just like home. Our original plan was to stay for two nights, but this place is so nice we twice extended for another night. The caring and helpful owners are changing the motif from grassland to rockscape with various cacti, which to me seems totally right. Not sure we’ll ever be back in this area, but if we are, we’ll sure as heck go out of our way to stay at Fort Amarillo. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great park to spend the weekend in Amarillo, close to great shopping and good food. The gift shop is something to see and it keeps the wife busy while I get the rig settled in. Nice pet area, 4 stalls that are lit. Easy entrance and exit. The lots are separated by a little wooden fence and have concrete porches, gravel and some need a little leveling after the rains. Decent cable tv and wifi can be slow at peak hours. Stayed here 3 times and will stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a nice RV Park whether you are staying for an overnight stop or for a few days. The folks that run this park are very nice. My youngest son had his 9th birthday during our stay, and he decided he wanted to have his b-day party here instead of at Gaddie's Pizza Parlor. The owners had no problem with this (since it was only us, Grandma and Grandpa and his Unlce and Aunt) and and even gave my son a "magic show" under our awning. I would HIGHLY recommend if you are coming thru Amarillo, and need a place to stay. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was another overnight stop, made on our way home. This place was crowded, but offered much more amenities than we required. Our site had a small tree and picnic table. We showered in the big shower/restaurant facility. It was very nice. We didn't use the pool or hot tub (again, it was late), but they did have a lot of very nice amenities. We did eat at the free continental breakfast the next morning. They had a first-rate store on site. Restaurants and gas were close by. It was just off the freeway (without seeming near the freeway), which was what we needed that night. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stayed here for 7 nights since we were taking our daughter to college in the area. It was a very clean "RV" park. The people were very friendly and when we had trouble with our new RV, they really tried to help in any way they could. This sites are mostly pull-through and plenty long. It isn't a "campground" but a "RV park". The one thing that I didn't like was the internet. My husband and daughter could get on fine but I couldn't. I could get a connection but couldn't sign on and when I did, it would boot me off. The campground owners told me that it happens sometime and gave me a number of their provider to call. After two phone calls to them, they finally told me it was my computer. WRONG. Since I would take it out of the campground to a cafe and have NO problems what so ever. And have now moved on to other campground and didn't have a problem. Internet was VERY important to me since I was still working. Maybe they need to upgrade to wireless "G" instead of the old fashion wireless "B". I have read some of the other reviews and I am not the first person to have this problem. So if internet is a priority, don't take your chances by staying here. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

After reading many comments on Amarillo campground we chose this one. We must be crazy since we did not agree with most of the high rated comments. The park is friendly and clean and the little oasis in the middle is well maintained. But the campground is mostly dirt and gravel with small strips of grass. They have slated wood fences that separate the sites making one feel closed in. The highway noise is evident. If you have a pet like us, everywhere you turn it says, no dogs. We will not return to this campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great place to hang your hat on the way from here to there – you may even want to stay a day or two. This is a large, well-designed park with the most delightful “office/registration desk” I’ve ever seen. It is nestled in a huge, two-story, RV gift & curio store – the décor is warm and woodsy complete with an inside waterfall! They have an amazing assortment of gifts, clothing, candles, toys & western goodies – it can literally take hours to prowl through all the treasures on both floors. (speaking from personal experience). The majority of the gravel sites are pull-through and separated by privacy fences. We had ample room for our 37.5’ 5th wheel & 1-ton dually parked end-to-end. Sites have picnic tables, instant-on telephone connection, free wi-fi (good signal) and 14-channel cable TV. The park offers free continental breakfast on the weekends in their hospitality room. The sites surround an elaborate, wonderfully landscaped park with paths, footbridges, a rock fountain, benches and a catch and release fishing pond. We’ve been here twice – once for a week-long stay and once for an overnight, you can rest assured we’ll be back. We highly recommend this park both for its amenities and its casual, friendly ambiance. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a unique RV park in terms of amenities - the "catch and release" fishing pond is cute, and the landscaping of the center of the park is a very nice touch. We got in after the office was closed. Even though we made online reservations late Friday night, they are closed on Saturdays and never got it, so we arrived and picked a spot. Even though I read a previous review on this site about the new router in the east side of the park, I forgot about it. My bad, as they say. We couldn't get wifi in our site (#21) and had to stand outside or go sit in the commons area to get it. When we did, it (the west side router) was very slow. Might stay again, not sure. We're working, not vacationing, so wi-fi is very important to us. That's the only reason I didn't give this park a 10. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The campground was a nice two night stop for us as we wanted to visit Amarillo and Palo Duro Canyon. Park is clean and they have down a lot of landscaping. Sites close to the office are the most developed as we were place farther away (due to business) and site was just a large graveled pull through with no picnic table, grass or slab. Would have preferred a site with the patio or grass pads, however, we did not make a reservation. It looks like the owners, who were very nice and helpful, are continuing to develop park. Laundry was clean, cable TV was basic but good picture, and WIFI was excellent. Owner told me he had place a second router in the east side of the park and it was as fast as being at home. We enjoyed our visit to Amarillo and this park. One final thing, don't hesitate to call the Big Texan for limo service to their restaurant. One reviewer called it a tourist trap and it certainly is - we were tourists and had a delightful evening. They gave excellent service - picked us up at the time we requested. Had a 30 minute wait for a table (not bad on Saturday night) and a good and reasonably priced meal. Also got to watch 2 young men try to eat the 72 ounce steak. Upon leaving the restaurant, they had four limos waiting to take guests home. Both drivers, to and from, were friendly and informative. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We found this park to be quite nice. Each pull-thru site has some grass (unique in this part of the country), a tree, small privicy fence, and convenient hook-ups. The park is fairly new (3 years), and has a "ranch" theme. Friendly staff and very clean, well maintained. Graveled interior, but not much dust. Pretty wide spaces. Space was level, we didn't need leveling blocks. Would definately come here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice overnight stop. Road noise minimal. Nice facility. Would rate higher except for lots of pot holes in interior roads and the material that is used for the sites (some type local rock-dirt) is very messy when wet. Sewer hookup in hard to get to spot. Would use again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The owners & staff are extremely nice, friendly & helpful. A short privacy fences is between the sites. Updating is constantly being done as we had stayed her 6 weeks earlier. The young trees will eventually provide shade at each site. At this oasis in the middle of the Texas panhandle, a continental breakfast is served Thursday, Friday & Saturday mornings.

This is a new RV park and shows a lot of promise. The sites are gravel and level, but that's about it. We were in the new area so the only thing at the site was a patch of sod. The older sites had a picnic table. We were too far away to receive the wifi signal. They are building a pool, but it wasn't done when we were there. They did a nice job on the landscaping around the common areas and the play area for the kids was big. There was a huge store that sold souvenirs, but no RV supplies or food. Again, this park shows a lot of promise, but it may take awhile to get there. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is an OK place to stay although I wouldn't call it a resort. It presents as being a little rough around the edges. Interior roads and sites are gravel on hard dirt. There are lots of puddles after a rain and everything gets a little dirty. Each of the pull-through sites in the area we were in were very long and each had a side yard with grass. Some also had a concrete patio and all sites were separated by a clapboard-type fence. There is no landscaping around the sites. The common areas in the middle are reminiscent of an old west town and if you think of the whole place along those lines, it works well enough. They do offer some nice amenities like complimentary breakfast, on-site phones and free WIFI. Access from I-40 is convenient and there is no road noise. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a new park which recently opened. It is on the west side of Amarillo just off the interstate. The trees are new so there is no shade yet. We stayed for a couple of days and the place was quiet and restful. The owners are very nice and the place is very well kept and very clean. There is a free coffee and cereal and doughnut breakfast in the morning. It has a nice gift shop up front. The sites are level and very large with plenty of room to pull around. I believe they had cable but was not positive so I did not check it above. I would stay here again when passing through
Amarillo. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is the ONLY place to stay in Amarillo. Yes, it's not right in town -- but that's a good thing. Level concrete pads had room for us to park our 38' fifth wheel without unhitching AND our extra car! Ultra-clean, friendly. We just wish there were more like this place!

This is a very nice park with a very friendly staff. The rates are great. All sites are level and most are pull through. They have a free laundry and the wifi works great as does the cable. You can even wash your RV if you want. The pads at each site are very wide. I could park my trailer and truck side by side if I wanted. There was no need to since the sites are very long. There were no picnic tables, but at this time of year in Amarillo, it's too hot to eat outside. The nights were pleasant. They have ice for $1.00 a bag which you pay for on the honor system in a box near the freezer. They also have a small restuarant in the club house. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed here one night on our way home. The only reason I didn't give it a 10 was due to the Wi-Fi not being very good. I could get on and get my emails, but could not bring up any pages on websites. It was also very slow. We were parked right across from the clubhouse, which had an antenna on it, so should have received very good signal. The park is lovely and when the trees get bigger, you will have some shade. Right now, you're right out in the hot sun, so need to use an awning, but there's so much wind in Amarillo, you're afraid to put it out! For the money, it's fabulous and right now, they have free laundry, which is unheard of in a RV park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is one of the nicer parks that I have stayed in. The sites are all concrete, level, and easy to maneuver around. I have a 45' coach and had no problems. One of the nicest assets to this park is that the laundry is FREE. The had four or five laundry facilities around the park. The only down side to this park is that there is no shade (101 when we arrived) and the cable didn't work very well. And the price was definitely right. We didn't need the cable so that wasn't an issue. Great park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A new park with all paved sites, good water pressure, good electricity, and at a bargain price of $20 nightly. However, there are some problems. Landscaping is almost totally lacking and the park is stark, wi-fi is very, very spotty. And, while they serve excellent ribs in the clubhouse, pull-through sites are on the very back of the parking lot, making it impossible for handicapped people to go to the rib dinner or to the clubhouse. Still, a very good value for the money. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very wide, level concrete pads. Nice. No shade, but I believe shade is overrated anyway. It usually blocks the satellite TV reception or gets in the way of the slide-outs. The Amarillo area is windy and prone to thunderstorms at this time of the year. It’s windy enough that it’s not worth the risk to put awnings out. That’s not the park’s fault though. Appears to be well managed, neat and clean. I don’t rate anyplace a 10, so far at least, because I believe no place is perfect. I’m hard pressed to keep that rule here. So, I will be picky and note that they do not collect trash bags. You must drop them in the dumpster yourself. We are staying here two nights and would return without hesitation.

My husband had a different park in mind, but when I saw all the reviews I changed it. Large sites with all the conveniences, including barbecue suppers for $9.95. That became affordable because our rate per night was $16, and doing laundry was free. Treelessness becomes less important. I will say the wind in Texas was ferocious, but that was not the campground's fault. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The only reason this park doesn't rate a 10 is because there is no shade from the hot Texas sun. Most RVs have an awning so it's really not a problem. In every other way it was near perfect. Easy access from I-40 but far enough away there was little road noise. A Love's truck stop is 1/4 mile away at the freeway exit. No railway noise either. Almost all sites are pull-thru, facing northeast, and long enough that we didn't have to detach our dingy. The park is spacious, clean, looks new and has three well kept restroom-shower-laundry facilities. Washers and dryers are quality equipment and free of charge. Also available at each facility is 10lb bags of ice for $1. Grassy areas for walking the dog has multiple young trees that will someday offer much shade. At the Club House they offered a TX-BBQ dinner of ribs, pintos, coleslaw, potato salad, rolls and a soft drink for $9.50. The portions were generous and the food very good. Although the RV park is outside of town good restaurants and shopping is within five miles. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We liked this park very much. Finally a park that "gets it" regarding big rigs. We drive a bus with car trailer and need a very large site to accommodate the SUV when it's off the trailer. We had gobs of room left over on our site #158 and there are other very large ones too. This is easy in and out, all paved with desert landscaping and is very well kept. Laundry is terrific as they have all front loading new machines (and they are free). The location is right next to the Cadillac Ranch and do check out the Market Street grocery in town!

This is one of the best rv parks we've been in. The personable owner/operator checked us in. Yes its flat with no shade trees but there is green manicured grass, and the sites and interior roads are paved. There are 4 shower/laundry combo buildings with 4 free washers and 4 free dryers in each building. This is a special promo because they want to build up business. They also have specially reduced prices to build up business. Its a fairly new park and you can tell the owner is oriented to travellers who want clean showers/toilets, high speed wifi and excellent cable tv. Its quiet with little to no freeway noise.

We had BBQ in the clubhouse, something they offer every evening. Easy to get in and out of the park and I-40. No road noise, even when sitting outside. Coming from NC, we're not use to not having trees, but it seems to be the norm in Texas. Each bath house had a laundry in it. This is a first rate CG.

The park is relatively new and very nice with pavement and concrete pads. The folks were very friendly and very accommodating. We decided to stay an extra day and there were no problems. The only negative was the cable did not work. They came out and checked it with a little TV and got a picture. However, my cable worked the day before we got there at another campground and it worked the day after we left at the next campground. I have to assume they have a problem.

This is a beautiful park, it is fairly new and it has very large concrete pads, with blacktop driveways. It has 3 restroom/laundry areas, which were well kept. There is an exercise room with two exerbikes and one eliptical machine next to the check in office. The price is exceptional, when you figure in that the laundry machines are free to use, and you can wash your RV and tow vehicle onsite. My only negative comment is the wi-fi internet connection. It was a bit confusing getting logged on, and when connected it would drop out frequently and I was only 100-150 ft from the nearest antenna. Other than the wi-fi we would stay here again, it is a very nice campsite with plenty of restaurants within a few miles including Big Texan's 72 oz steaks. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

They say there is a fitness room but I didn't find it. They let you wash your rig for free, too. All this for $17 which is advertised as a "Stimulus Special." $15 for pop-ups and pull trailers, $17 for 5th wheels and class Cs, and $20 for class As. Best bargain around!

What a great place to overnight. Located on the western edge of Amarillo,their huge sign is easily seen from I-40, however, it only says "RV Resort" not "Oasis RV" so heads up if you are looking for it. We arrived late at night and there was no late arrival information posted so we called the phone # and a friendly fellow said for us to "just drop $20 bucks in the box". I am sure he gave us a discount because of our late arrival. The bathrooms/showers were the cleanest we have ever used! The entire facility was clean and well maintained. I think the park is new , therefore, there is no shade. We had no time to use the pool but it looked nice. We would overnight here again We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was a nice park for touring the Amarillo area. The $20 rate is a "special," I was told that it is usually $33. All the sites are paved, level, and large. Restrooms have private individual showers, and all look new. The laundry was free!! I don't expect that will last, but what a nice benefit. There is a heated pool, and spa, and a very nice clubroom. It is just off I-40, but we did not notice the highway noise. The only downside was no trees, and very windy, with some smell of manure from the surrounding fields.

This is a great park. It is fence and a block off I-40 so noise is not an issue--not even the traditional train or airplane. We found the park very big rig friendly. This park will accommodate any size RV with any number of slides and tow. Staff was very friendly & accommodating. We had a couple of special requests and they met them without question. They then came by to ensure our comfort & that we were pleased. The park is absolutely spotless. The clean & free laundry is wonderful (free is worth $10 easy). All roads are blacktop. Sites are double wide concrete with a concrete patio area. Utilities are modern & well placed. Between the sites is a large area of stone. The Wi-Fi was great. The instructions stated one would have to re-log in every five hours which was no problem. We consider this the best value park that we use. We will return! We camped here in a Motorhome.

A nice park, highly recommended. I would have given a higher rating but was not pleased with the way the internet access was setup and it constantly having you to renew your log on credentials. Other than that, a fine park. I would stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This place was very neat and clean and nicely landscaped (with gravel and desert plants) given it was located in west Texas where there is no grass or trees—just red dirt. The staff was very friendly. The roads were paved as were the pads. Each site had a patio, but no table or grill. It is usually too windy for fires. The cable TV reception was good with lots of channels, and the free Wi-Fi worked fine for us. The restrooms/showers were very clean; we did not check out the pool. They advertise a free laundry, but we did not use it. Some people will probably criticize this place because its layout is more like an RV park rather than a campground, but we really liked it and hope we get to stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is only the second "10" we've ever given. Ultra-clean, ultra-modern and ultra-organized, this place was designed by people who KNOW what an RV park should be like. It's definitely worth the bit further drive in to town to have a level, cement site. The buildings were beautiful, the xeriscaping fits the area, and everything was perfect.

Everybody has already pretty much described all the positives about this park: the facilities, the newness, the owners, etc. The only problem we had during our 2 day stay was the WIFI. It went down for a couple hours and had to be rebooted by the owner and was not reliable during our stay. The only fault I found with the park was the location of the sewer toward the front of the sites. People towing 5th wheels and trailers may have to use extra sewer hose if they do not plan on unhooking. Surprisingly, they are not doing the business they expected. The owner said they have already had 300 cancellation this year. I'd hate to see a new park of this quality not make it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is an excellent park for new RV'ers because the roads and spaces are wide with the majority of spaces being pull-throughs. Have never seen nicer, cleaner restrooms and showers. The laundry rooms have wonderful Maytag machines that are kept clean. The people are friendly and helpful. The park is located far enough from the interstate that there is no possibility of road noise but still has easy access. I would recommend this park highly. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Traveling down the highway in a 42 footer, this park is exactly what I look for. I don't even know where to begin, this place is a 10 for sure. Tons of space, wide paved roads, concrete pads on the HUGE level sites. Top-notch facilities, clubhouse with pool and spa, bathroom and showers were sparkling clean. Great 50 amp power, 6 different onsite wifi networks to connect to. Friendly staff at check-in that shows you the park map and lets you choose where you want to be. Dogs had all kinds of room to roam around. Park was only about 1/4 full on Thursday, July 10, 2008. We were only passing through, but I would stay at this park for an extended period of time in a heartbeat if I were in Amarillo again. Only two things weren't perfect, but they are no fault of the park so I do not detract from the score: quite windy (especially at night), and the cow manure odor was pretty strong but thankfully only lasted for about an hour. Bottom line, I wish every RV park in the country could be just like this one. I wouldn't change a thing! We camped here in a Motorhome.

What a find in the middle of no where! This is a new campground with large level sites. The bathrooms are just like at home with potty and shower in one room. Pool is very nice. The owners are incredible. We pulled in and hooked up, played in the pool and showered. The weather started to change and a huge hail storm came through breaking a vent, we made a split second decision to leave and head west away from the storms. Next morning my husband called, and the manager offered to refund our money! I will stay here again when passing through Amarillo. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Well laid out park. I agree with the large sites and concrete patio's. No grass except around the perimeter. Cable does not include networks, so must use the antenna to receive those. Wi-fi worked great for us. While we were here, the wind was very gusty. Had some "cow odor" too, but didn't seem to last very long and wasn't too bad. The free laundry was a real bonus!! Machines were clean and worked great. There are laundry facilities all around the campground. Even though the park is close to the freeway, we didn't notice any freeway noise. You are about 6 miles west of the city, so have to drive a little to find restaurants and the requisite Wal-mart. We would definitely stay here again. Folks were very friendly and helpful.

This is Amarillo's newest park and is located on the far west side of town, near Love's, about half a mile south of I-40. We didn't hear any road noise. It is easy to get to, and a great place to spend a night or two. Being new, the facilities were very nice. Laundry is free to paying guests, something we have never come across. The sites are spacious and easily accommodate big rigs. The rate we paid was discounted since it is a "jewel" park, and we were referred by a park in Gallup, NM which is also a "jewel." We travel I-40 quite often and previously stayed at another park in Amarillo. Oasis is our new choice. We definitely will stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The only thing missing from this resort is trees, but this is West Texas and there just aren't many trees in this part of the country. Normally I would not call this a "destination" park but I'd go out of my way to stop here again. It's easy to navigate to and through with a hugh shopping area just four miles away. And the one-fee-covers-all is great. I despise the places that advertise a low rate then nickle and dime you to death with charges for tv, WiFi, laundry and even showers.

We camped here from June to November 07 while in Amarillo for work with my family, wife and two daughters. We were one of the first guest, saw Chris and Thomas always trying to make adjustments to make things better for the overnighters and full timers. Park was always kept clean, very nice bathhouses, clubhouse has a lot of potential, somethings were not complete while we were there, but we could see the potential. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to other. One note don't plan on putting out the awning the only bad thing is the wind it is terrible, we lost a slide awning to the Amarillo wind and tie down anything left outside. Thanks guys We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Visited park in a big rig and found it to be very big rig friendly. Roads are paved and very wide. Sites are concrete. Long enough for any size coach without disconnecting tow car. Very wide to accomodate any number of slides and still have patio space on the pad. A table at each site would be a nice addition. Since it is new there are no trees to dodge. The utilities are modern and mounted on a lit pedestal. The only thing I would have changed was the sewer connection was placed toward front of site and would have been better placed toward the rear. The staff is friendly, but seem a little disorganized. They try hard to please. We were able to pick our site. The recreation area is hotel quality. Pool was cold, but the two spas were warm & staff turned up the heat when we said we wanted to use. It was great after a long drive. We found the wifi worked, but was not real strong. This is the type of resort that big rig drivers are looking for & sets the standard for future rv resorts. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Excellent campground! Level concrete sites, nice folks, fabulous desert landscaping, all utilities worked perfectly, beautiful adults-only spa separate from the pool, and they even have storm shelters for the frightening Amarillo weather (we had a hail storm that killed a vent, flattened the air conditioner intake, and put holes in the sewer hose that looked like a shotgun blast, but Dickey Stout RV repaired the damage on short notice). The rating of 9 rather than 10 is because the wifi was excruciatingly slow, and they were short-staffed, so the restrooms weren't cleaned as often as I would have liked and the clubhouse was open only intermittantly. Would stay there again if in the area. Note this place seems to go by two names: RVXpress and Oasis. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

As others have stated, this is an awesome campground that just opened in June 07. The owners (two brothers) are RVers themselves, and designed it specifically for big rigs. Granted, there are no trees or tall bushes, etc. but it is very nicely landscaped with decorative gravel, small plants, etc. There is very little grass, and what there is is near the office and also around the pool/clubhouse. The sites are HUGE, level,with concrete pads with full hookups with very nice utility pedestals. Most sites are pull throughs, and the facilities are about the nicest of any campground we've seen around the country. There are several very nice bathhouse/laundry buildings strategically located throughout the campground. Each building has several really nice, very clean individual private bathrooms with showers as well as a laundry room, and the laundry is free! The swimming pool, spa and adjoining club house and exercise room are beautiful! All of the buildings are done in a southwest adobe fashion, and are first rate. The owners really put a lot of thought and money into building this campground, and while we were here, at least one of them (Chris) was on site 24/7. He was super nice and very helpful with suggestions on things to see and do as well as places to eat, etc.. The interior roads are all paved and super wide, so no problems getting in/out and turning corners, no matter what size rig you have. We drove all around the campground in our 40 ft motorhome with Jeep in tow as we picked out our site. It's about a half mile or so off of I-40, so while you can hear the traffic in the distance, it's not that bad and didn't bother us at all, unlike some campgrounds that we've stayed at near the interstate. This is a definite 10. If we are ever in this area again, we'd absolutely stay here! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a first-rate facility and one of the nicest RV parks that I have stayed at. I heartily agree with all of the positive things said in previous posts about this campground. The sites are huge and very RV-friendly. The hookup setups are both top-notch and in a cute housing. I gave it a 9 rather than a 10 because the grounds were pretty stark and open. Low-level grasses and other xeriscape plants were used but I would like to see some taller bushes or trees. I live in the high desert and know that there are some nice desert-type trees and bushes available that don't take a lot of water. This is the only thing that I would say "negative" about this RV park and that is being really picky. Other than that, I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to other RVers.

We've been full-timing and traveling extensively for 3 years and this is one of the nicest parks we have ever stayed at. All the sites have level concrete pads. The utilities are very accessible. The sites are wide (30-35 feet) and attractively landscaped. There are multiple wi-fi antennas so there is excellent reception throughout the park. There are at least 5 laundry buildings which double as storm shelters (important in this part of the state!). Also, laundry is FREE! The owners are on site and are extremely gracious, friendly and helpful. The roads are all asphalt and are easily the width of two motor homes. TV cable is free and selection is robust. This is where we are staying if we are anywhere in the area! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Only downside is what the visitors (read long termers) are doing to the resort, i.e., going to work and leaving a barking dog tied up outside.........park owner has doggy drop trash containers located at the end of every street, yet you'll find dog crap not picked up. Banning dogs from campground would be a positive step. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Absolutely fantastic for its primary purpose - an overnighter while traveling through Amarillo. But on the other hand, if we were visiting the city, this would be our first choice of campgrounds in the area! Brand new and immaculate; every site is wide, level, and the utilities are top-notch. Wi-Fi is excellent. The comfort stations feature individual bathrooms, and they were so clean and new that I was tempted to use them instead of the bathroom in my camper! Host was very friendly and welcomed me to choose any site that I wanted. Easy access to I-40, but far enough away that I could not hear the traffic.

This park is immaculate since it is brand new. It was still under construction while we stayed, but most of it was finished and was beautiful!! The restrooms are individual rooms with multiple locks on the doors providing for extra safety. The sites were all concrete and nice and spacious. The gentleman that runs it and his daughter were super nice and told us to pick any site we wanted since they are all the same price. I could not believe it was only $28!! They have cable however you do need your antenna for local channels. Like the other review said, it is called RVXpress so it is meant for stop overs and not long term stays, therefore there are no picnic tables, fire rings or grassy areas and there were no trees planted at the time of our stay. THIS SAID,IT IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and I did not miss these items at all. I wish we could have stayed longer. This is definitely a campground that we would go out of our way to stay at again. After having traveled cross country and staying at numerous campgrounds, I can easily say this is by far one of the nicest in the U.S.!!!!! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This place is brand new so everything was clean and in excellent condition. Some construction still going on. Friendly staff and reasonable rates. Although the park is gigantic there were only a few people there when we made an overnight stop. Sites are all paving and decorative rocks, extra wide and extra long. Big rigs with multiple slides will have plenty of room here. Very nice pool and clubhouse area. We like some outdoor living with our RVing so the low score is due to the lack of picnic tables, fire rings, or a playground. There is plenty of space for these and perhaps they will be added in the future. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

It is just off the highway but far enough not to be bothered by noise. There is a adult spa and a kiddy pool, exercise room and activities room. The owner seems intent on providing the best for RVers and so far seems to be doing a great job. I gave the park a 9 only because it is not totally completed at this time.

Another overnight stay while traveling through Texas, so the name suits the campground well. Staff is very friendly and helpful. First site we were put in was too short; the staff quickly moved us without any problems. The site we stayed in had a nice little fenced dog area on the site, as did several sites. Sites and interior roads are gravel. This campground is under the flight path of a nearby commercial airport. We only had one plane fly in at 9pm; it was very low which scared the dogs a bit. It is along the road and a truck stop is across the street, so there was road noise. The area gives the feeling that you need to keep all doors locked; however we didn't see or have any problems. If driving through and needing an overnight stop in the area we'd stay again if nothing better was available. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

First let me say the campground is right in the middle of the Air Force flight path. Being an old Air Force guy I didn't mind the noise at all. It brought back a lot of old memories. Gentleman in the office was very helpful and friendly. Limo service to the Big Texan Steak House was available and the drivers were very courteous. Good water pressure and electrical power was good. Wi-Fi has a good signal with no problems connecting. No Version service in the complete town of Amarillo. Extended service was available though. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Good place to stay for an over nighter. Managers always friendly, and have been so for past 8 years or so. Near the "Big Texan" steakhouse if you wish to enjoy. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is right off of the interstate, and car and truck noise is a problem. As well you are right off the South end of the Airport runway. The air traffic does die down later at night. The highway does not. The sites are chip gravel, and it does track into your rig. The bathrooms were older but good and clean, and locked. Utility services worked well, including the wifi. We went to the Big Texan for a steak dinner, as the shuttle with the longhorns on the hood comes right to your camper door. A little secret though, if you can't eat the 72 oz free steak in an hour, it will cost you $72. I had a 12oz and paid for it, thank you very much. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a very nice CG for the purpose it serves. It is not a destination CG, but as advertised, it's for overnight stays. Great level sites, some shade, good sized sites, easy in/out and easy on/off the freeway. Nothing fancy, just good accommodations. Noise from the highways is not bad and the occasional USAF jet that flies over is more comforting than annoying. A great stop for overnight. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The name is appropriate for this park because I can't imagine anyone staying for a 2nd night. The park was tidy and neat. The restrooms were spotless; but the noise from the freeway and arterial that flank this place was very bad. This was compounded by the 30 or so jets that land and take off right over your RV from the military base that is right across the freeway. Then there are the trains that pass nearby .......you get the idea. Not a place for a restful night's sleep. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We've stayed here a number of times, but not for any longer than overnight. The park is easy to get into and out of, and the interior roads are fair-to-good. The staff was friendly and the park was generally quiet. I say generally because the park lies underneath the arrival path for planes landing at Amarillo Airport. Now, I love to watch planes so I don't consider this to be a bad thing...but I may be in the minority on that one. The plane traffic did die down considerably after dark. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The name says it all. This is a good campground for an overnight stay. It's benefit is it's proximity to the area. The downside starts with the airline flight patterns being right over the campground. The planes did drowned out the cars on I-40. The campground was clean and the sites were level (gravel). The Wi-Fi worked well. It was easy to navigate with a car in tow. It was cool to go to the Big Texan Steak Ranch via the free limo that will pick you up at the campground. I recommend the free 72oz steak (if you are able to eat the entire steak). Easy access to the interstate. I recommend for overnight stays. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is clean and friendly. It doesn't look like much from the street, but when you get back to the spaces, it's very clean and spaces are ample, level, lava rock (gravel) with patches of grass between sites. The office buildings are older, but very clean. Each spot has a picnic table, but no cement pad. The Wi-Fi is good and available at all spaces. I would definitely stop here again when I return to Amarillo. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a nice park right off of I40. The only drawback to this park is road and airport noise. Otherwise it was a very pleasant stay. Large spacious sites, some with private dog runs available, as well as a fenced in off-leash area. Park owners were super friendly and helpful. As the park name implies, it is a great overnight stay. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is an older place in need of a face lift. Located right off the interstate with the expected traffic sound. Right on the flight path for the air base with quite a number of planes overhead. The pool was green and full of floating plastic bottles w/ one small hose attempting to re-fill it. Nearby train traffic competed w/ the planes. There were many big rigs and the place was fairly full, but the sites were fairly close. The WiFi was iffy and the cable had a limited number of channels, two of which were movies being shown from the office. Not sure if I'd use this place again, even as I did, just to stay overnight. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very nice, well-maintained overnight campground. Extremely clean bathrooms/showers. Reasonable price for full-hookup site. Only thing that kept this campground from getting a 10 rating is the spotty wi-fi; it was very slow, and we kept getting booted. Other campers said the same thing. We'd stay there again if we were passing through. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is very easy to get to from I-40 for an overnight stay. The sites are a decent size and easy to get in and out of. Free cable and internet, but we have 2 laptops that were both unable to connect. If noise is a problem, this is not the place to stay. Proximity to the local Air Force Base makes for a noisy stay. Overall, OK for an overnight stay if you are heavy sleepers. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very convenient to fuel stops, I-40, about 35 mi. to Palo Duro Canyon State Park which is a must see, large sites, free cable & wifi, fenced dog walk & provide doggie bags for pickup. Probably a prettier park in summer but worked for us. Next time though we will stay at the State Park, nothing against this park though. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Oh Boy can we pick em. We were dead tired and needed some rest after a long day of traveling and we found this tidy little park. The only problem was that it was right on the Amarillo Air Force base's final approach path. As luck would have it they had C-5 military transport planes practicing " Touch and Go's". Imagine these HUGE 4 engine jets with rocket assist coming in and practicing landings, over and over and over again, 2-3000 ft above your heads and directly over your coach. It went on for 4 solid hours till 9 PM. Throw in a few F-15 fighter jets and your talking about a lot of noise. This place is big rig friendly, but it's tough getting sleep if the air base is active. If we are through here again, we will be staying on the West end of Amarillo. I love planes, but that was ridiculous. I wished the host would have been honest enough to explain this to us about the jets. No wonder he never said a word and just kept smiling. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Free WiFi, free phone at site. Some sites have a fenced yard for pets use. Going to the "Big Texan" to eat, just tell the office & a "Texas Limousine" complete with a big set of horns on the hood picks you up at your site & returns you to site after. (GREAT Restaurant too!!) Do get noise from I-40. Planes are not too bad for as close to airport as the park is. We would definitely return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This park worked out very well for us. Close to I-40 but we didn't really get any noticeable freeway noise and did not hear any trains. Did notice the plane noise but only a couple of times during our stay. Sites were level and easy pull throughs with adequate space between you and your neighbor. Bathrooms and showers clean and comfortable. The free Wi-Fi was a great surprise and we used it extensively. Palo Duro State Park is a beautiful place to do some hiking while in the area. We have a 30 ft RV and would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Ok stop for an overnight, but the airplanes are a problem. Large military transport and fighters fly very low over the park while practicing landings. Owners very friendly and helpful. We arrived early and our site was assigned with a note on the door. This was very helpful. They have everthing you can ask for in a campground, except quiet. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The park is pretty nice. Only stayed there overnight, so wished the price would've been lower--$22.50 w/Good Sam discount ($25 w/o). Not too far off I-40, across from a large truck stop, but in the path of airplane landings. Didn't use any of the facilities--just parked, slept, and left the next morning--so I can't tell you about anything else. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Has all the hookups, cable TV etc but if you like quiet, forget this park. It is on the glide path for Amarillo Airport and the planes landing are approx. 200' over your head. It also has a huge truck stop across the street and a train switching yard behind it. If you are hearing impaired, this is the park for you. For those with normal hearing and sight, forget it!

This is your basic RV park but the sites are on the small side of the scale. We asked for a pull-thru long enough for our 29' travel trailer and double cab PU to fit without unhitching. The site, and all of them in fact, were not long enough as we were hanging out into the access roads at both ends. There was very little traffic so we didn't unhitch. The WiFi was down and were told the service tech wouldn't be able to get out until sometime the next day. So for this overnight stay we were unable to access emails, which is one reason that we selected this park from the guide book. Guess we need to start inquiring about whether the WiFi is operational first thing before starting the check-in process whenever we arrive at any park. Other complaint was the constant truck noise from I-40 just a couple of hundred feet away. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Park had pull-thru sites, but they were not long enough to park our tow vehicle in line with our TT and our TT is only 29.5'. We had to park next to the TT which eliminated any use of an awning or picnic table. Although temps were in the 90's, the swimming pool was closed. Park roads were gravel and could use some grading. Park was OK as a base while we went out sightseeing, etc, but it definitely is not a destination campground. Campground hosts, who also handled registration, were very nice and friendly.

We stopped here just for the night and will never do-so again! This park is filled with mostly old rigs that appear to be permanent residents of the park. The pull through was barely long enough to fit my 40' MH with a toad attached. The park looks very unkept, dirty, and the residents have stuff just sitting around. The sewer is not very convinient as the hose goes over landscaping ties and pools in the hose; the electric is on a very high post, dangerously close to the edge of the pull through. It would be very easy to hit the electric pole with a roadside slide. The park is next to I40 and is extremely loud with truck traffic. I would not recommend this park even though the price is cheap enough for an overnight stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a nice, no-frills overnighter...not too fancy and catering more to the older rigs and trailers...but if you just want a good night's rest and no litany of rules thrown at you, this is a fine stop. Managers were friendly and helpful...showed us to our spot and sold us (would have let us borrow if we'd wanted) a converter since our spot was 50A. Sites are grass/gravel and pretty level...rather close together and no landscaping, but that's par for the course in West Texas. At the back end of the campground was a barbequeing and kids' play area. Not much there, but it did have grass and shade trees. No designated dog area, but the field behind the park is in process of being upgraded with more sites (supposed to include an enclosed dog run eventually), so the dogs were welcome to go back there. Showers and toilet areas are old and about the size of the ones in our rig, but they were clean, and an obvious attempt had been made to pretty them up with geegaws. Decent size pool looked clean, but it was locked up when we got there...assume it is only open when the office is. There's a large rec area by the office that has a few supplies plus tables/chairs/TV and some basic exercise equipment. Park was dusty and gravelly but, again, you're in West Texas...and if you like stark views, you can see for miles around you. After all the improvments are completed, this should be a pretty good little RV park (but need cable TV at a minimum). We'd stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
