Found this campground on Eleventh St behind Camanche Hotel and RV park headed off I-10 into town. We saw this one from the road. Camp host very friendly, offered a wifi coupon for free 24 hours - low signal but worked, easy in and out for a overnight stay. Can't beat the 10.00 price!! We were happy!! We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here for an over night. Private park with not much to offer other than cheep prices, on the honor system. Good electric and water pressure. Just outside of town and close to the interstate for easy on/off. Showers and bathrooms were clean, even while being renovated. All gravel level lot. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The country needs more parks like this... a clean, no-frills park to stay overnight on the way to somewhere. It has full hookups ($12 for 30 amp, $14 for 50 amp). It's right by the interstate, easy off, easy on. Good dirt interior roads; level sites; easy hookups. We camped here in a motor home. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were very pleased with this RV park for an overnight stop. Very easy in/out and an unbeatable price. We paid $16. $12 was the basic rate + $2 for 50 amp and $2 for cable. Seems to be a bit more than others paid. Host was very friendly. There are a great many monthlies here, and many older RVs, but we did not notice any cluttered, unsightly sites. Everything seemed tidy. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
If price is a consideration this could be a 10; if beauty is what one wants it could be a 1. Overall very adequate for an overnighter. The man checking me in very cordial. Though the entire park is of dirt, probably mud when it rains, sites are level and pull throughs. We checked another Passport park in town and decided to use this one. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good campground to stay in while passing thru. Not much else is available and this one is close to restaurants and freeway. The price is right also!! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a very basic campground with mostly permanent campers and some overnighters. The sites are large and easy to access, but that is about it. Cable is $2 extra and ours did not work well. The $13 price is for a 50 amp site. A 30 amp site is $10. We camped here in a Motorhome.
OK stop for the night right along side of I-10 so there is quite a bit of freeway noise. Nothing more than a stop over though as it is all dirt and gravel and no shade, but what do you want for $10 a night for full hookups? ($2 more for cable tv). Would stop again if ever in area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a good low cost overnight stop. Roads and sites are the same, rock and gravel. All sites are pull-thru. Fort Stockton about one mile away for all your needs and places to eat. You will hear some road noise from i-10. Owner was very nice at check in. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Our favorite I-10 stop over. Easy in and out, not too near freeway, lots of dog walking area, cable, and a honor system of pick your own spot after office hours. The only reason I do not give it a 9 or 10 is the gravel and clay sites can be a mess after a rain and there is no shade. For us the price and convenience makes it unbeatable in the region. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We used this park just for an overnight stay while traveling along Interstate 10. It was right off the highway, easy to get in and out of, and the gentleman running it was extremely pleasant, including staying late to wait for us since we were behind schedule that day. Good value for $13. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Some times you just want an overnighter at a cheap price. $10 gets you privacy, electricity and a dump station. Better than Wal Mart! We camped here in a Motorhome.
I give this park a 10 because it is exactly what it supposed to be and meets a specific need. Nothing pretty--mostly gravel sites with no landscaping, but they do offer very long and wide pull through sites and easy ingress and egress. The park is specifically designed for overnighters, is very inexpensive ($10 basic, and provide an excellent alternative to Wal-Mart or high priced campgrounds for overnight stays. We definitely need more of this type of park! We camped here in a Motorhome.
For the price this is a good campground for a night or two. There is a $2 charge for cable tv. Campground is next door to a nice golf course. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We parked here overnight because of positive ratings on rvparkreviews. com, and found the previous reviews to be right on target. The manager/owner is very friendly and when we discovered that the $10 thirty amp hookup wasn't going to power us with a second air conditioner, the manager allowed us to just drag our land line over to an adjacent 50 amp site and pay the 3 dollars difference. We saw numberous rv'ers camped overnight in the local "picnic areas" and out in the texas underbrush off the road, but for 10 or 13 dollars, you can get a good night's sleep at this park. A real no brainer. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a bare-bones park that works very well as an overnight stop and it's conveniently located right off the interstate. A very nice man runs the office and will assign you a $10 site that is fairly level. Some sites have 50a and cable for an extra charge of $3 and $2 respectively. Our cable did not work and we were quickly given back our $2 extra cable fee. Interior roads and sites are gravel and dirt. Next time we're traveling between San Antonio and the El Paso/Las Cruces area, we'll stop again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We loved this little park with the huge Comanche arrows sticking in the ground everywhere.
It's the ideal no-frills park for the traveler who just needs a safe, clean, inexpensive place to stop for the night. I wish we could find more of these on the road. The rate we received was for being a Passport member and requesting a 50 amp hookup.We will use this park whenever we're passing through the area. Being able to visit nearby Fort Stockton was just an extra treat. We camped here in a Motorhome.

If you need a quick and easy-to-access RV park between El Paso and San Antonio, get off
I-10 in Ft. Stockton at exit 257, --the park is amost right at the westbound exit. A note on the office door said to put the $10 in the box, and pick your space. Most spaces were pull through (all gravel), and some had a sign saying "50 amp. The 50 amp. sites and/ or cable TV cost a couple of dollars extra. Don't expect lush landscaping , but this is a decent park at a reasonable price with with full hookups. The park's phone number is 432-336-6403. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I gave this park a 9 because it is meets its mission. A no fuss, no muss $10 campground
with full hookups with easy access to I 10. Level gravel pull through parking, quick and easy check in. Why use Walmart when you can have a nice quiet view of the prairie and space to spread your slides for the night before heading on for a bargain price? We camped here in a Motorhome.
We only stayed here overnight but the park was well maintained with lots of level sites. It even had trees! It was a little tight because we have 4 slides but it was definitely the best park in that area of Texas. We didn't have a reservation and thought we would just stop somewhere. Well, there isn't many "somewhere's" in West Texas and we were very happy to find a place this nice to stay in. It was right off I-10 but we didn't really hear any highway noise. There was a restaurant on the property where we have a good breakfast for a reasonable price. We will definitely stop here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a stop over for two nights. Very nice owner and very helpful.The sites where level did not need to use the leveling blocks. The restaurant on the grounds has great food and very good prices. We enjoyed our stay and will return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This park is a convenient stop between no where and nothing you might say. However, it appears that the owners are not putting anything back into the park. There are several pull thru sites that will accommodate the large RV with tow vehicle. The sites are gravel/dirt and some grass/weeds. There are some shade trees. There is a small restaurant that serves dinner/breakfast. We tried the dinner it was OK. There is no playground or dog run. It shows these facilities on the campground guide but they no longer exist. There appears to be some full timers in the camp ground. A convenient stop if you are in the area but not the most desirable campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I think the best thing about this former KOA campground is they have a full service cafe (Roadrunner Cafe) serving breakfast and dinner at great prices. Menu prices top out at $8.95. I had the catfish dinner and portions were generous. Their convenience store stocked all of the necessities including beer and wine! The park is quiet and it was easy to get in and out of my pull through space. All sites are gravel, not much shade, but well kept. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only negatives I can comment on is placement of the the sewer hookup which is located far away (to the rear of the sites) from the electric/water hookups. You'll need an extra long hose to reach or you can do what I did...hit the dump station on your way out. Also, they claim to have free WiFi, but while I was there I could never get connected. There is no CATV. Amenities include: pool, playground, horseshoe pit, basketball court, outdoor BBQ pit/patio and laundry facility. Rates are reasonable. Using my Good Sam discount I paid $24.30 for one night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had not been here for two years, so we were glad to see that free Wi-Fi is now available, and it worked fine when we were there. As mentioned by others the park is no longer affiliated with KOA. The staff was still very friendly, and everything was well maintained. The sites are gravel, reasonably level, and have a table and grill. This makes a great first and last stop for our trips out west. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very attractive park. Has a small cafe that serves good food. Very nice staff. Pool looked good to us. Good size sites. Would have stayed longer but not much to do in town. Lots of big rigs. We camped here in a Motorhome.
An decent park for this part of Texas. Some trees and shade. The free Wi-Fi is nice. Pool was not clean and lots of seasonal oil workers live here. The $30 fee was high for Fort Stockton as you can stay in other parks for $10 to $12 per night. Gravel interior roads but not too dusty. Had to ask for a Good Sam discount. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Campground is no longer affiliated with KOA, and is now called Fort Stockton RV Park. Check-in was very easy and office personnel was extremely nice and helpful. Received a Good Sams discount without even asking for it. Pull-through sites are easy into and easy out of. There is a nice little cafe on-site that serves good home cooked meals. Only drawback was the roads are gravel, but even then were well cared for. We camped here in a Motorhome.
No longer associated with KOA, this is a very clean, friendly park. It is right off I-10 but you don't hear the highway noise. There is a small restaurant on site for breakfast and dinner, food was home cooked and very good. We were able to keep our tow connected on the pull thru site. This is a great place to stop on your way in and out of Texas. We will use it again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A great place to stop and stay for a night or two as you travel I-10. Really friendly people. We stayed here on the way out of Texas and again on the way back. We will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I stayed two nights at this campground. The clerk who checked me in was very friendly, knowledgeable and polite. I no longer have a KOA membership mainly because most KOA's charge way too much for their parks. I was given a Good Sam discount and very much appreciated this. I was able to get a good Wi-Fi connection during my stay. The grounds are very clean and I noticed that all the trees have been trimmed to allow for big rig RV's to go in and out. We stayed here several years ago and from what I could see, the park is kept in excellent condition. We camped here in a Motorhome.
According to their website, it states there is a hot tub, there isn't. We needed a 50 amp site and they stuck us in the back, and the wi fi didn't reach back here. My new computer couldn't pick it up at all. The folks up front were friendly, and park seems to be neat and clean. Voltage was a bit low, and water pressure isn't great. I could have stayed in town for half the money, but my husband wanted to use the hot tub and there wasn't one! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is the only reasonably-priced KOA we’ve been to, and one of the nicer ones, with friendly staff. It is well-maintained, with lots of trees, convenient to I-10, yet far enough from the noise. They have free cable TV and Wi-Fi, which worked well. Their laundry was also handy, clean and inexpensive. This is a nice place for a stopover. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This one is O.K for an overnite. Rough interior roads, but the spaces were O.K. and the pull-thru was just long enough for out 36' 5er with the truck. Hook-ups were O.K. also. Older park in the desert. According to the literature, the sites to see are the Post Office, the Caboose visitors center and the library. Stickers everywhere, so it was rough on our pooch. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Good level sites, paved roads. Easy access to and from the freeway, and located outside the city. Quiet place. Grassy area between wide sites. Friendly helpful staff. Wifi down while we were there, new system. Great sunset view. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a decent KOA. There is not much else in this part of Texas to choose from but the campground was in good shape. The grounds are well landscaped and well maintained. The sites are gravel with sparse grass but are wide enough for 4 slides. The restaurant is very quaint. The cook and waitress are a married couple that make the food and serve it. You pay in the front office. We found the BBQ ribs diner to be very good. Get there early or they may run out of food. We will stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good overall park for a short stay. Everything clean, orderly, and friendly. Not a destination park, as there isn't much to do in Ft. Stockton, but great for passing through. Easy parking, and hook-ups. Quiet, yet near the freeway-easy on and off. This is the best there is in the area. We look for a safe place, and felt comfortable here. Will definitely use this park again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This place was unfortunately our introduction to KOA campgrounds. We camped here on our way to Big Bend, asked about the park and any information they might have. Zilch! No help here, don't bother asking. The restrooms and showers, while large were hammered. Tiles fallen off the wall, moldy mildewed shower curtain, water damaged vanity, rusted fixtures. Had a shower not been very important at that time we wouldn't have risked it. The lot also was very unlevel. This place could sure use some maintenance. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This park definitely qualifies as "middle of nowhere" However, the sites were level, WiFi worked well, and the management was very pleasant and helpful. The restaurant at the campground even served a tasty dinner. It was a pleasant surprise. If we are in the area again, we would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
One of the better KOA's. Spacious sites. Nothing fancy, but clean and orderly. Nice bonus is their restaurant open for supper and breakfast. Excellent home cooking at a reasonable price and you get to interact with fellow campers. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Used as an overnight stop. Level, wide sites. Paid for 30 amp since it's a little cheaper. The restaurant was open for dinner at night and breakfast in the AM. That meant that I didn't have to unhook the car and still eat out. Nice people at the CG and the restaurant. Would definitely use again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice "no-frills" park. Good for stopovers, but not for extended stays. Not much to do in Fort Stockton. Campground was clean and staff was excellent. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
A place to stop on way through west Texas. Nothing else to recommend. Nice people, but park does not even offer basic cable TV, you are too far away from other cities to use your TV antenna. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We have been staying at this KOA since 2001. It is almost always our first and last stop on our trips west. The previous reviews are accurate. The staff is always very nice. The sites are gravel and fairly level. The restrooms are older, but clean. Their trees are finally getting big enough to offer some shade. They used to have a nice little restaurant on site, but the last couple of times we’ve been there it has been closed. Their pool has always looked nice. There is no TV reception. And one other thing: A sign in their office says, “No, the wind doesn’t always blow this hard. Sometimes it blows harder.” Believe it, but it is still a good overnight stop. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This RV park is definitely just for 'over nighters'. No frills! Thank goodness for satellite TV cause they have no cable TV & the TV antenna doesn't work well here - very fuzzy picture. They do have a TV/activity room but it always appeared to be locked. The staff is friendly & the park is clean. Office is closed for several hours during the day so campers select their own site. Right off I-10. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Level sites and just off the Interstate. Dusty and well worn park though. Hardly a sign of a tree, but a nice desert view. Sites are quite short for medium to big rigs. No TV (and I mean NO TV). Super nice people, and they have a nice little restaurant with pretty good meals. Gas and diesel fuel is available at a fair price. A good place to stop for the night. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This park is O.K. for a stop over. The wind blows hard all the time here and you have a lot of dust. Most of South Texas has this problem. We had a BBQ dinner in KOA dinner room and it was very good. Sites are paved with some type of small rock. Staff was very helpful. We camped here in a camper.

Only stayed one night. Place was clean. Pool was not heated and it was cold for July. They have a hot tub. It is a good overnight stopping place. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
The rate I listed is Passport America with 30 amp service with no cable. All upgrades are sold separately. This is a very, very dusty park. We experienced very high winds while we were there so it seemed we were always chewing grit. Spaces are close together but fairly long. The park is adequate for a one night stop but I would not want to stay longer. There are a large number of older, poorly maintained rigs and construction barracks type units. I would not feel safe walking around the park by myself. The sewage pipe was plugged with a piece of driftwood. Fuel in the Fort Stockton area was the most expensive that we bought in a 600 mile trip. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is the second time we have visited this park, and my impression has not changed. The person who was in the office when we arrived this time was actually very rude and abrupt. As soon as Passport America was mentioned, he had no spots available, but would offer us dry camping for the same price because we were already paying only half the regular price. Needless to say, we moved on and will never visit this park again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Passport America rate of $9, plus $2 cable, plus $2 for 50 amp. As the other review says, just OK for a night. There is nothing in Fort Stockton to see or do. The Fort is a corner stone in the ground and not worth seeing (we were told that by the people in the site next to us). But be warned, there is a big gas plant under construction nearby, the parks here are either filled to capacity or very close. We got in, but rigs were being turned away shortly after. Also stopped on the Comanche first, they were full. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The park is alright for a over night stay. The man behind the desk had lost his personality, or was just not the talking type. We paid our 18.00 and found our spot. It's what we had expected when we first saw it. The spot we had was level but the coke bottle half full of water for the drain cover was a bit weird. There seems to be some road noise but being in town it's to be expected. Also quite dusty. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The stoic Manager and some of the NASCAR racing type residents are a little scary ( zooming trucks thru the entrance road to the mobile homes & trailers in the back), but for ONE night at the PA rate of $9 , you'll probably be okay. Another $2 for cable, which is very good, and free wifi was fine. Spartan bathroom better than outside appearance. Long, wide dirt sites not quite level. Sewer is a hole in the ground with a bottle cover. Road noise all night; try to park away from highway. Good luck. We camped here in a Motorhome.
If you are looking for amenities, then this park is not for you. It's basically a field with hookups. Sites are large, but next to the road. Road noise all night. Owner not your typical RV park owner, somewhat reserved and not chatty. We would stay here again, but only for an overnight stop. Good value for what we got. Where can you find a full hookup site with free internet for only $9 on Passport America? We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We camped here in a 40' motorhome using Passport America. Sites were good size and we had 50 amp. WIFI was free and worked well. This is a good park for short term. Like said previously, I would have to be there when it rained. Overall, excellent value for the money and a good jump off point for touring. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is the first rv park we have ever driven up to and turned around and left. It is a big dirt field with hookups. We couldn't bring ourselves to stay for one night. I can only imagine what it would be like if it rained. There is a state park about 45 miles west of Ft. Stockton that was much better. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We have a dually/36' high-profile fifth wheel. Our pull-through site was generous with plenty of space. Park a bit run-down but serviceable and certainly OK for overnight. Washrooms a bit primitive, but adequate. WiFi from site brilliant and also Ethernet connection in office. Cable TV excellent. Overall excellent value for money. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Park is an OK overnight stay, especially at the $11 Passport America rate. Facilities are old and very basic--The power was wired incorrectly at the 1st site we were in. They did fix it. Just a dirt parking lot, but does have full services. Probably would be a muddy mess if it rained. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed here 2 nights in a Class A pulling a large enclosed trailer. The staff went out of their way to accommodate our needs with this long combination. The park is huge and has basic amenities. It is extremely convenient for the twice yearly Open Road Races held here as it is directly across the street from Rooney Park. we elected to stay here because it was SO much quieter than the other RV parks in town along I-10. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Did not stay here. Drove up and camp host very rude, went because it was a Passportamerica discount, had to many extra charges, said we could only use our propane for heat, looked run down including bath. It would be just an overnite stop. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park is kind of old and like a big dirt parking lot, but lots of pull throughs and easy access. Restrooms and showers were old, but very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Good overnight park, but wouldn't want to stay there long. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The $11 Passport America rate gets you a long level pull-through with 50 amp full hookups. 30 amp sites are $9. Access is very easy for big rigs. Free WiFi that worked just fine at our site makes this an even bigger bargain. The laundry was clean. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Passport America rate is $9.00. No amenities. Pull thru's. Stopped here before. Quiet at night. No overhead lights - so its dark for sleeping. Not the most secure feeling place. We are here on Thanksgiving and wanted to go out for dinner (nothing going on in the Park). Town was absolutely shut down, Nothing open. In spite of negative comments, its a cheap stopover on the way south. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We came to this park with a mechanical problem on a Friday afternoon. The campground owner could not have been more helpful. But for his cheerfully given assistance, we would have missed our appointment in Kerrville the following day. Super nice folks like this need our support so I hope that anyone needing a quiet place just far enough off the I-10 not to hear it will patronize this park. Very highly recommended. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Don't stop here if you want a pretty park. It is a wide open field with no amenities. But considering where you are in Texas, it is good for a cheap one night stay. We have been here before and knew what to expect. We wanted a level spot easy to get into and then go to sleep. A Passport park ,but they charge extra for 50 AMP. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park was on open, flat, sandy ground. All of the sites were pull throughs. The sites share the utility poles with on other site. We enjoyed the road runners that ran through the campground each morning. This is a great park for a one or two night stopover. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Easy in and out, wide pull thru sites. There were a lot of stumps from dead trees and the whole campground had a bit of a run down feeling. But the sites were level, the staff was pleasant. Okay for an overnight stay, but not a destination place. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park advertises a pool, however it is an above ground type and there wasn't any water in it. The campground has a dilapadated feel to it. Thankfully we were spending one night. We would have looked elsewhere if staying in Ft Stockton longer. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a Passport America park. It is not really a very well maintained park, but OK for an overnight stop when traveling I-10. Roads are gravel & wide enough for big rigs, no trees. They put overnighters at the front in pull thrus near the highway. Sites are gravel/dirt and level with some side by side hookups. At least half the park is permanent residents. We camped here in a Motorhome.
They stated in the paperwork they handed out that they had a pool. I looked out the window of our motorhome wondering where it was, and saw a Doughboy Pool in a dirt field! I was curious because they advertised that they charged 25 cents to use it! We were parked in a large dirt field a short distance away from the "Pool." I would never stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
