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%

Sandra was extremely helpful and accessible at all times. The place was incredibly peaceful, welcoming and everything was very clean and well kept.
I especially loved how quiet the place was and how sweet and loving the furry creatures (dogs, cats and horses) on the farm were!

It was great for a fairly isolated spot. I'm sure the fishing in the area is better during other times of the year, but we still enjoyed our visit. Mosquitos and ants were terrible though....

My dog and I enjoyed a quiet peaceful visit to Magnolia Gardens and were so relaxed walking along the San Jacinto River while the train made its way across the old trestle bridge at the far end of the park. Very nice place and the sunset over the river was icing on the cake! Thanks!

Came on Labor Day weekend, so I was expecting it to be crowded. It wasn’t. Not like Galveston or Corpus. Nice, peaceful, seaside town. This property has one side on the intercoastal waterway, the other is the beach. Great for fishing or beach combing. The road in is sand/gravel/shells. It has some potholes from the weather, but 2wd can make it. Just go slow. Property was well kept - clean and mowed. I know the description says the host will be there upon arrival, but they weren’t. But, everything was self evident. Host did respond quickly to my message. There is water, 20/30/50 electric, and sewer. There is a trash bin. The pads are pretty wide, enough room to have your lawn chairs/table etc. next to RV. The pads, though, are pretty close to each other. They are very flat. Bring your mosquito and ant repellent. There’s a small Texaco station on the mainland for gas and such. There’s a BBQ stand about a couple miles inland, and the largest restaurant, The Crab Trap, about 8 miles inland. If you are familiar with driving on the sand and have a capable vehicle, you can drive right out there and go quite a ways. A lot or two over is a mooring park that boats will pull up to rest. There’s not any shade so if this is something you desire, be sure to prepare accordingly. There’s lots of frogs at night, but they aren’t loud. I’ll post a review video in a week or so on YT at Camp Check.

We had a great time. Took the family and three dogs. Has a dedicated fenced dog run. Very private location right on the Bayou. Has a great private dock with good fishing. Caught redfish, blue crabs, spotted sea trout, black drum, catfish, bluegill, ladyfish and alligator gar all in one spot. The hookups were in the perfect location and did not require a long 50amp cord or septic hoses. Surfside beach is only 18 minutes away for your beach fix and good food. 10/10 would recommend to anyone. Great host and great spot.

The site and facilities were well maintained; considering we were not flat towing on this journey, we loved the close proximity of community amenities. The campsite itself is in an easy-to-find location and located relatively close to major highways for easy exit. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Moss Island was perfect. It was peaceful and very clean. I read previous comments before booking. The ants and mosquitos were minimal. The beach is literally right across the road. We just walked the beach some, it was not crowded and you could fish in the surf. The sites were clean and concrete slabs were nice. There was a large grass area, we were able to set up our chairs, tent, and poles. We caught a variety of fish and an eel. We also had fun crabbing. It was cool looking at all the big barges in the waterway . The only issue we had was the heat, but that is expected in August in Texas. We will definitely book again when it cools off some!

Small RV park very well kept has nice docks for fishing and close to the beach. Pads are oversized so plenty of room for most RVs.

Full hookups right next to the beach, can't beat that! Sunrise on the beach and sunset over the canal. This beach is more remote than Galveston so it's a lot less busy.
Lots of birds to watch, especially the pelicans.
The barges in the canal right behind us were fascinating to watch. The noise might get annoying after a while but for 3 days it was still interesting.

We had a great time camping here. It was right by the beach which was perfect. We did a lot of fishing so it was nice to have the ocean right there. You really can't beat the value. We would definitely come here again.

We had the best time fishing, swimming, and relaxing at Camp Nadur. We are already planning our next visit. Even on a very busy holiday weekend it was SO peaceful. Shockingly we had the beach to ourself most of the time. It’s a fantastic spot! Thanks Kirk and Emily for sharing your place.

Definitely worth it. Fishing for him, beach for her. There is tons to catch and lots of seashells. The road to get to the site is rough but can be driven in a 2wd. The only downside is the fire ants are horrific.

Open to public 7am-7pm very lively with jet skies, people playing, music, and cook outs. Once all non-campers leave its very calm area and you have the whole property to yourself. Wake up to a beautiful scenery. There're lose dogs but calm and don't bother anyone. Staff is very friendly. Clean place trash cans placed around property and dumped out daily, clean restrooms, rarely any branches
