1 night at Magnolia Gardens Park

Our experience at the place was spectacular. It should be noted that there "THERE ARE BATHROOMS", THERE ARE also SHOWERS. The attention was spectacular. The place is very clean. I just want to emphasize that the entrance is until 7pm. So if you plan to go camping you must arrive before 7pm. I recommend this place 100%

Weekend Trip to Unique Gorgeous Bubble

We enjoyed the very unique experience at Jannett and Davis's property! It was surreal to sleep in an actual bubble. They had all the amenaties you come to expect, and we were remarkably comfortable. The pool, farm animals and other activities were also great! My only complaint is that the "approximate location" shown in the listing is almost a one-hour drive from the actual location, which you only find out after booking. This forced some changes to our schedule for the weekend and would have been nice to know up front. But we still would have stayed here, and I'm glad we did.

Incredible experience! You are not only booking a dome to stay in, but Davis is an attentive, full-service host. He helped move our luggage with his ATV, started the fire, adjusted the hot tub to the temperature we needed, brought out speakers, etc. The amenities are also amazing-- pool is incredibly clean, firepit is nice, outdoor kitchen with drinks and snacks, goats and animals around. Davis even let us have fresh eggs from his chickens for breakfast! He is such a thoughtful host and really goes the extra mile for his guests!

4 nights at Cummins Cozy Corral

Jeanna and Kris are good hosts, have sites with level concrete pads, hookups easily accessible to the trailer, free laundry in a shed between two of the pads, and the sites are surrounded by greenery. Jeanna made sure of connecting with us, ready to answer questions along with giving info on the surrounding area for dining, etc. It has been a great base for our time as we had business in College Station and family to visit in Houston. We would have to pay at least double for the same site/service back home in New York state.

7 nights at Cummins Cozy Corral

This is a wonderful place to stay! Jeanna and her husband were warm and welcoming from the moment of my arrival. Jeanna’s husband helped me get set up and made sure I had everything I needed. Jeanna became my contact throughout my stay, making sure I was satisfied with everything. It’s a very pretty spot with lots of trees and chickens roaming the property. As a single female camper, I need to be aware of my surroundings. I felt very safe at the fenced and gated, rural Cummins’ Corral. One of the nicest amenities (besides your host and hostess) is the free laundry they provide! I live in my RV full-time and as a Thousand Trails member, I am in need of a place to stay one week out of every month. With the pleasant atmosphere, the lovely hosts, the safe environment, and the great rates, I definitely consider Cummins’ Corral my new monthly go-to!

1 night at Magnolia Gardens Park

It was a little confusing as there was no designated Campspot. Just a lot of picnic tables. So we parked near one and set up camp with our RV for the night. We loved how private it was and quiet it was. Now that I understand how it works. I would definitely go back again.

Out door shower lots of hot water. Awesome

One of the highlights is the amazing deck with a picnic table and additional seating that gives you spectacular views of the surrounding area. The fenced-in yard is an absolute bonus, especially for dog owners—my pups had the freedom to run around off-leash, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The outdoor shower with both hot and cold water is a fantastic feature, along with the charming outdoor swing that adds a relaxing touch to your evening. The patio area is well-lit, perfect for enjoying the space after dark. You’re also in a prime location, close to local stores and Tia Juanita's Fish Camp, where the food is amazing! And if you're looking to explore, it’s just a quick trip to the ferry and then you're off to Galveston Island. Mike, our host, went above and beyond to accommodate us, even with a last-minute booking, which made the experience even better. I can’t wai

The best camping near Crosby with swimming guide

Where to go

Around Lake Houston

North of Crosby, the 160,000-acre Lake Houston is teeming with bass and crappie, and you can find quiet fishing spots along the shore or BYOB (bring your own boat) to cruise the lake. On the north shore, the Lake Houston Wilderness Park has trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding, as well as backcountry camping.

Far North Houston

Further north from Lake Houston, the Sam Houston National Forest is an all-natural playground with miles of forest trails, woodland walks, and tranquil camping spots. Ardent hikers can set out along the 128-mile Lone Star Hiking Trail, but there are also plenty of shorter trails, many accessible for bikes, OHV, and horses. The forest is bounded by two lakes—Lake Conroe and Lake Livingston—where you can also swim, fish, and enjoy water sports.

Gulf Coast

The San Jacinto River winds its way south all the way to the Gulf Coast, where the coastal wetlands and beaches afford some of the best birding in Texas. RV parks dot the shores of Trinity Bay, but for beach camping, head south to Galveston Island State Park. Work up an appetite kayaking around the wetlands, then catch some fish shoreside to cook up around the campfire.

When to go

Camping is a year-round pastime in Crosby but the most pleasant weather for outdoor activities in spring and fall. Summers are hot and humid (expect daily averages of 94°F), so choose a camping ground close to the water or cool off along the Gulf Coast. Forest walks are almost magical in autumn with their rainbow of fall foliage.

Know before you go

There are no public transport links to Houston, so you’ll need your own transportation to get to and around Crosby.
Crosby has a selection of shops where you can purchase groceries, camping gear, and fishing supplies. Pick up everything you need in town before heading out to the lakes or riverside.
Most Texas State Parks require reservations for both day passes and campgrounds, and fishing permits are often required.
