Hi Folks
We are planning to stay in the Galveston/League City area for a while. Any suggestions for campgrounds? We have a 5th wheel and we are anticipating a stay of about a week to explore the area.
Thanks
Anita and Bob

Galveston Island State Park is nice, and if you want more amenities you can try Jamaica Beach RV Park, just a couple miles away.

Please keep the suggestions coming folks, we're heading that direction after we leave Harlingen. Already have reservations for Goose Island State Park in Rockport and the Galveston area is the next stop after that.
Time to get the MH wheels a rolling. We're leaving at the end of February, following the coast to....?

I suggest you go to Freeport then get on County Rd 257, Gull Drive & Bluewater Hwy. This is a good paved road that follows the Barrier Islands to Galvaston. After spending some time in Galvaston go to the NE end of the Island and take the Ferry to Bolivar Island. The ferry can handle just about any size rig & is free. On this route you totally bypass the terrible traffic of Houston. Follow Hwy 87 to Hwy 124 & high Island. Follow NE to the TX / LA border & Port Arthur. This is where we started heading north in LA forrowing the TX ? LA Border, Beautiful Piney Woods.

You are welcome. We enjoyed the Galvaston area. The fishing boat docks on the bay, the historic downtown, walking the beach & seawall.

I used to stay at delenarva and had to pull slides in due to excessive winds all the time, blowing down sat. dish, etc. moved over to other side on galveston bay much nicer location IMHO. fairly close to access bridge from mainland.
