Park your rig by the beach or in the woods in this southeastern city.
With the Piney Woods and the Gulf Coast both within easy reach, Beaumont is a year-round destination for RV campers. When the mercury soars—Texan summers are as hot and humid as they come—escape to the beaches of the Gulf Coast to cool off. There’s RV camping with electric hookups at Sea Rim State Park, where you can also swim, kayak, and horseback ride, or head to the Bolivar Peninsula to check into an RV resort or park your self-contained RV right on the beach (4WD recommended). The spring bird migration draws crowds to the coastal marshes, as well as the Big Thicket National Preserve, but some of the best RV camping is found at Lake Livingston State Park to the north. If urban sightseeing is on the agenda, several RV parks dot the city limits, too, many with full hookups, free wifi, and a swimming pool.
